===Why clear Air God Dungeon?===
===Why clear Air God Dungeon?===
Aside from it being the sole supplier of gear for idling the {{ZoneIcon|Water God Dungeon|Water}} God Dungeon, it has the following notable drops:
* {{UpgradeIcon|Perpetual Haste}} - massively speeds up {{Skill|Crafting}} and {{Skill|Fletching}}.
* {{:Aeris God Armour}} - ranged best-in-slot. This set is mandatory to idle the {{ZoneIcon|Water God Dungeon}}. You will also need {{ItemIcon|Aeris God Gloves|qty=10|gloves}} to later upgrade them into the {{ItemIcon|Poison Virulence Gloves}}.
* {{ItemIcon|Deadeye Amulet}} - ranged best-in-slot.
* {{ItemIcon|Deadeye Ring}} - you will need 10 of them to later upgrade into the {{ItemIcon|Poison Virulence Ring}}.
* {{ItemIcon|Stormsnap}} - Situationally useful and almost mandatory for farming the {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} later.


* {{ItemIcon|Deadeye Amulet}} - Best-in-Slot for the {{Skill|Ranged}} combat style.
According to the [https://github.com/vbion/melvor-coupon-solver/ simulator]:
* {{ItemIcon|Stormsnap}} - Situationally useful, but almost mandatory for farming the {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} later.
* If you want the full Armour set, then you need to clear the dungeon 91 times for 75% of that happening or 192 times for 95%.
* {{:Aeris God Armour}} - Ranged Best-in-Slot. You will need {{ItemIcon|Aeris God Gloves|qty=10|gloves}} to later upgrade them into the {{ItemIcon|Poison Virulence Gloves}}.
* If you want the full set and {{ItemIcon|Stormsnap}}, then it's 277 times for 75% and 576 times for 95%.
* {{ItemIcon|Deadeye Ring}} - Same as with the gloves, you will need 10 of them to later upgrade into the {{ItemIcon|Poison Virulence Ring}}.

If you have more DR or HP than needed, use preferably {{ItemIcon|Ring of Wealth}} or otherwise {{ItemIcon|Aorpheat's Signet Ring}} to increase the number of drops.
It is heavily suggested to use the {{ItemIcon|Sandstorm Ring}} because it boosts your clear time by 20%. Other rings don't come even relatively close.


If you have {{ItemIcon|Fury of the Elemental Zodiacs|FEZ}} (3% DR) use it instead of the {{ItemIcon|Elite Amulet of Defence}} (2% DR). If you don't have any of them, use {{ItemIcon|Gold Sapphire Necklace}}, but you really want at least {{ItemIcon|Elite Amulet of Defence|Elite Defence}} to idle this dungeon.

This page was last updated for (v1.0.3).

Why clear Air God Dungeon?

According to the simulator:

  • If you want the full Armour set, then you need to clear the dungeon 91 times for 75% of that happening or 192 times for 95%.
  • If you want the full set and Stormsnap, then it's 277 times for 75% and 576 times for 95%.

Gear to Idle

Due to the Combat Triangle, it's recommended to beat the Air God Dungeon with Melee because the enemies here are Ranged and Melee.

The following build can idle the dungeon with Hitpoints Level 90 (+30 HP from Dragonfire Shield for 930 HP total), and is suitable for Standard, Hardcore, and Adventure Game Modes. Check your own setup with the Combat Simulator or Can I Idle to be sure that you won't die.

Item Slot DR%
(G) Ancient Helmet Head 7%
(G) Ancient Platebody Body 7%
(G) Ancient Platelegs Leggings 7%
(G) Dragon Boots Boots 6%
(U) Ancient D-hide Vambraces Hands 6%
Infernal Cape Cape 4%
Elite Amulet of Defence Neck 2%
Sandstorm Ring Ring 0%
Dragonfire Shield Off-hand 8%
Total 47%

It is heavily suggested to use the Sandstorm Ring because it boosts your clear time by 20%. Other rings don't come even relatively close.

If you have FEZ (3% DR) use it instead of the Elite Amulet of Defence (2% DR). If you don't have any of them, use Gold Sapphire Necklace, but you really want at least Elite Defence to idle this dungeon.

Weapon choice

The simulation was done with the given build. All combat levels are equal to 85 aside from Hitpoints. No prayers, no potions, no any other buffs.

The intermediate steps can be checked with this spreadsheet. (link)

Weapon Adjusted clears per hour Buff compared to previous
Dragon Sword 0.91 0%
Dragon Claw 0.99 8%
Sunset Rapier 1.1 9.5%
Ancient Claw 1.13 2.6%
Infernal Claw 1.19 5.1%

The usual food expenditure is 384 Whale (Perfect) per hour.

You want to get at least the Ancient Claw because it is a good time to farm it after unlocking Ancient Magicks.

Ideally, you want to get 10 Infernal Cores from the Infernal Stronghold and farm the Dragon Claw to make the Infernal Claw.
Check the Infernal Stronghold/Guide to farm it most efficiently. You should be able to idle everything aside from Malcs.

Maximized Farming

The rest of this guide is NOT for your first clear, your average clear, or even your first 100 clears. This is purely to maximize scrolls for any missing items. This will assume 99 in all skills, access to nearly all weapons and items in the game, and access to all DR and HP pets. This assumes you are (unless otherwise noted) using an optimal Agility setup, are using your best dps prayers, your best summoning synergy, and are using Diamond Luck Potions

Melee

This build is the simplest to accomplish, and what most players will lean towards.

This clocks in roughly 20-21 scrolls per hour, depending on if you have access to Shield of Melee Power, and depending on your Astrology bonuses

Tidal Edge, and/or FEZ paired with Fighter Amulet in passive slot, may be slightly faster depending, again, on your Astrology bonuses. This should be checked for yourself in Combat Sim

Item Slot DR%
Slayer Helmet (Master) Head 0%
Slayer Platebody (Master) Body 6%
Ragnar God Platelegs Leggings 7%
Ragnar God Boots Boots 7%
Ragnar God Gloves Hands 7%
Maximum Skillcape Cape 0%
FEZ Neck 3%
Ring of Wealth Ring 0%
Chapeau Noir Passive 0%
Infernal Claw Weapon 0%
Shield of Melee Power Off-Hand 9%
Total 44%

Magic

Standard Mode only, the Hardcore/Adventure combat triangle advantages make this build unusable.

This build uses Water Surge or Water Wave (reduced rune cost), Anguish III, and Fury II.

To use this method, you need to have 1090 HP and 48 DR. This is achieved by using Rocky Waters instead of Lake Swim. Any other method to get you to survive Aeris's stun is usable, but going to cost you more than 3% damage.

This clocks in around 26 scrolls per hour, depending slightly on your Astrology bonuses

Item Slot DR%
Glacia God Helmet Head 8%
Glacia God Platebody Body 8%
Glacia God Platelegs Leggings 8%
Glacia God Boots Boots 8%
Glacia God Gloves Hands 8%
Skull Cape Cape 3%
FEZ Neck 3%
Ring of Wealth Ring 0%
Chapeau Noir Passive 0%
Cloudburst Staff Weapon 0%
Total 46%
