There are a number of ways {{ZoneIcon|Into the Mist}} can be completed. In general, waves 1-20 are best completed with your best [[Magic#Magic_Equipment_Stats|Magic gear]] and [[Magic#Ancient_Magicks|Ancient Magicks]] or actively switching to take advantage of [[Combat Triangle]] bonuses. It's highly recommended that once you reach the final boss, you take the time to calculate the DR values and maximum hits per attack of each phase. Eating strategies can generally solve the final bosses and aid you in learning when to deal damage and when to survive, but it's useful to know what attack might kill you with your exact gear and levels. For all phases of the dungeon, as long as you do not get instantly killed by one attack (one shot), you can most likely complete the dungeon with the appropriate weapon. | There are a number of ways {{ZoneIcon|Into the Mist}} can be completed.

It should be noted that completing ITM will permanently add [[Dark Waters]] monsters to the [[Slayer#Master|Master]] tier of {{Skill|Slayer}} tasks. These monsters all have specific weaknesses and heavily punish the player for using the "wrong" combat style against them, making it far more difficult to use {{UpgradeIcon|Auto Slayer}} to fulfill the 40 task requirement for unlocking {{ItemIcon|Slayer Gear Upgrade Kit (Master)}}. If desired, [[Perilous Peaks]] dragons may be killed with a high damage, pre-t90 weapon such as the [[Cloudburst Staff]], [[Slayer's Crossbow]], or [[Infernal Claw]] instead. | |||

Using various of the explained methods in this guide, this dungeon was completed with {{SkillReq|Attack|85}}, {{SkillReq|Strength|85}}, {{SkillReq|Defence|85}}, {{SkillReq|Hitpoints|93}}, {{SkillReq|Prayer|88}}, {{SkillReq|Ranged|1}}, {{SkillReq|Magic|85}}. No range levels are required using the recoil method for phase 2; however, at least {{SkillReq|Ranged|80}} is recommended to use {{ItemIcon|Stormsnap}} if using a more traditional approach. {{ | Using various of the explained methods in this guide, this dungeon was completed with {{SkillReq|Attack|85}}, {{SkillReq|Strength|85}}, {{SkillReq|Defence|85}}, {{SkillReq|Hitpoints|93}}, {{SkillReq|Prayer|88}}, {{SkillReq|Ranged|1}}, {{SkillReq|Magic|85}}.

[[Diamond Luck Potion]]s are most likely the single best improvement and upgrade for this dungeon, as long as you have obtained all recommended stats and gear. Any tier can be used, as the only difference is the number of charges per potion. This is mostly because Phase 1 is the most difficult part of the dungeon due to DPS/accuracy issues.

Phase 2 requires enough {{Skill|Hitpoints|HP}} and [[Damage Reduction|DR]] to not die at maximum affliction stacks and [[Mark of Death]]. The highest damaging hit is [[Concealed Danger]] at 450 damage. At above around {{Skill|Hitpoints|90 HP}}, you will need approximately 2% [[DR]] or more to achieve this.

Since {{MonsterIcon|Ahrenia}} heals when she uses the special {{SpecialAttack|Into the Mist (attack)|Into the Mist}} attack, this will take some time and [[Glossary#RNG|RNG]] to complete. | ||
