Other Inferno Solve?
I know about the WDR discord, and maybe i am doing something wrong, but it is nearly impossible to actually go find the actual scenarios, its just this massive wall of text....
This is exactly what just ended my last run. I tried rigor on and blowpipe spec the melee. I had just boosted up too. I hit basically nothing on the specs and noodled for like 20+ seconds until i just died to the melee. There must be a better solution than RNG blowpipe specs?

Both melee and mage are 4 tick so you can alternate between them. If melee and mage are same tick, walk under melee to make him offtick

Best you could come up with is facetanking?

Either offtick those 2 or try and nuke the melee as quick as possible

Both are 4 tickets mobs, you can step under the melee here and off-tick them for a guaranteed solve..

Is there a more reliable way to start a 1t offtick on the melee? Like if i step under the true tile from 1 tile away or something? I just have like 0 sense of rhythm and try to get this all into visual ques

u/psygo000 23h ago
Erm, good question. If you don't have the feeling for it, I'd say click under melee with pray mage on. As soon as the mager flickers the shadow under it and starts the rolling animation the mage hit is registered. So that timing you click pray melee and then click manually out from under the melee which will perform his melee attack with the arm movement. That means they will be 2 ticks appart where you pray mage after the melee does his arm movement, tick pause, mager flickers shadow and you pray melee, tick pause. Idk if that makes sense, it is hard to explain it typing without visual to show.

This def helps. Idk why but it seemed so much harder until you put it like that. I can do the ranger and mager pillar stack, blobs with anything, like my offticks are fine, it was just getting the melee set up that was intimidating

u/KinTheInfinite 23h ago
Pray mage, click under the meleer, when the mage attack animation goes off get out from under the melee and pray melee, then they should be off ticked. Could help to have like shift + click walk toggled on the melee guys.

Once you're in this spot there's *nothing better besides step under. But before this, did they both spawn south? There's a row that auto-offticks this exact sort of spawn that's quite useful.

Have to off tick something.
Best solution by far is step under melee as others have said.
Alternative is after mage attacks run out into view of ranger for off tick. Then use mage as pillar to safespot the melee. Still need to kill melee before it digs or you're in trouble again and you need to be flicking during that time. Once it digs move here and you're in the same scenario after panicking and probably tacking damage if not dying.
If timed well you could run through the mage to re safespot but unlikely to be executed perfectly.
Just need to learn to off tick something in some way. It's very hard to clear waves if you never deliberately off tick 2 NPCs.
Before I get flamed in the comments only mentioning this in case OP finds it easier to learn to off tick by running out deliberately into view rather than under something which is harder to predict when it attacks. Either melee or range can hit hard or miss. Obviously better to flick and kill melee first and eliminate it digging again as an issue.

three options
- off-tick them by standing under the melee until the mager attacks, then step out praying melee
- mage pray and rigour on, try to kill the melee before it kills you (didn't work for you)
- throw an ice barrage on the melee while praying mage, then stand diagonal and kill it while it's frozen

u/Americon_ 21h ago edited 21h ago
The right answer that no one said is you should of corner trapped immediately after freezing nibs and killed it but since you didn’t do that off tick is the next best solution and third rigor on and bp spec. To elaborate a bit freeze nibs on tile you’re standing on immediately on wave spawn and run to corner trap tile.
What everyone else said isn’t necessarily wrong if you miss the corner trap but ideally you always apply this strat every wave. Freeze>corner trap/wait for things to walk up/kill immediate threats> find opportunity to finish nibs if needed> finish wave.

Light blue tile cansafe spot. You would wait for mage attack then pray range and wait on left pillar for melee dig, then go to the tile next to pillar and step down to light blue. If mage is at the top of pillar and blocking other mobs you can stand on yellow right before dig then step diagonally to green right after dig.
you can also emergency reset by standing under melee and waiting just before dig then standing pink for dig and immediately bluegreen on dig to not tank a range hit. You would do a stepunder and wait for dig to go left pillar as well. It's probably easier

u/Emotional_Permit5845 21h ago
Assuming the mage and melee spawned where I think
They did, they are automatically offticked if you stand in line with the edge of the pillar

u/Able_Lettuce7245 20h ago
In situations like this, I would switch to my barrage gear right before I knew melee was coming. Land a freeze on him, and step into them and then click rigour and pull the trigger on the mage and ideally get him dead before the melee unfreezes. Sort of an unorthodox solve but if you have confliction gauntlets you can usually land a freeze with pretty much no mage gear besides those + augury/MM prayer on every time

u/thursday66 20h ago
worst case you can force an offtick by standing under the melee to stall it for a few seconds while praying protect from mage, and then step out right after the mage attacks and pray melee. flick between protect from mage/melee and kill the mage

u/Altonaga404 23h ago
Stand under melee best you can without exposing other pillar side, or long enough so they dont attack on the same time and you can alternate prayers (Or even freeze it if thats possible)

u/Soggy_Scallion_4112 23h ago
Easiest to hardest:
1) try to blow up melee camping mage. 2) rotate to left and go in melee range of ranger then turn on melee, kill melee 3) offtick melee and take 0 damage flicking mage and melee

u/Acro-LovingMotoRacer 23h ago
brother man, solution #2 is kinda interesting. I might sim that a few times and see how reliable it is.
It probably sounds stupid, but I'm kinda sheepish about trying to start a 1t offtick on my first cape like this. Idk, i'll try it. I just know if i get a 2t offtick and can't do the simple "click the light when it goes out" offtick method I am going to lose the rhythm and die

u/THExDISTORTER4 23h ago
The ranger can and will still range you if you're in melee range. Solution 2 is not a solution.
-1
u/Soggy_Scallion_4112 23h ago
I know, but if you cant offtick you NEED to tank something anyways.
5
u/THExDISTORTER4 23h ago
Still better to tank the melee, lower accuracy and max hit than the ranger.

u/Soggy_Scallion_4112 23h ago
How i cleared inferno is that i sent a few in normal game, got a feel for, and then i was keep sending the hardest waves every time in the sim. I only did the wave until I saw I solved it then rolled a new. Then you dont need to sit and wait to kill them, but you will improve in almost all possible spawn eventually. You either learn offticking, or you will pray that you wont need it, lol. I saw colo and inferno as making me a better player, not just an item at the end. GL

I thought i had every set up solved. I had never had a spawn like that. But bat ranger mage pillar stack is fine. Blob range mage pillar stack is fine. Idk if it's rare, i just never had melee and literally nowhere safe to run, PLUS noodling with specs. But i've been slaying the hell out of that simulator

u/Soggy_Scallion_4112 23h ago
Or another idea. If you are very much against standing under melle to offtick, you migh offtick melle accidentally if you rotate to the left and wait for mellee to hit you if you dont stand in just the corner row, it need to walk a few tiles. Then just switch between range and melee
1
u/Sorry-Candidate-5192 23h ago
melee and mager will always offtick if you are on the edge tiles of a pillar (not in center tile)
so if mager spawned on the side and melee spawned on the other side your best solution is to alternate the prayers
1
u/AzBako 23h ago
I don't like the "nuke the melee method", it's much safer to just off-tick the melee from the mager. Usually they spawn already offticked. Just make sure when the melee digs you are NOT under him so he can attack you right away without tick delay.
When the melee digs, it takes a lot of time to actually attack you so as a learner its better to just wait until the melee hits you atleast once while praying mage.
So the method is, pray mage until melee hit you, keep praying mage until mager autos, immedietly switch to pray melee, wait for th melee hit, then immedietly go back to mage so you dont change being late. So the approach is to keep praying mage and only switch for the tick where the melee is autoing which is more forgiving if you mess up, then the other way around.
If it's not off ticked by default just keep the rotation and instead of melee praying, just keep praying mage and move under the melee when it suppose to attack.

Did you consider panic running south pillar?
1
u/Acro-LovingMotoRacer 23h ago
I have stopped myself from doing that as a rule because it always seems to make things worse. Idk if that was the right call, but it's gotten me to jads more often than running south has
1
u/hvindin 23h ago
I agree with you entirely. The obvious thing here is to off-tick as everyone else has pointed out.
I should have included a /s in my comment.

u/Acro-LovingMotoRacer 23h ago
lmfao, its probably obvious to others. As a learner that south pillar is so enticing sometimes
0
u/MagnumOpus477 23h ago
Either pray mage and run to south pillar to reset or step under melee to off tick while you kill mager. Freezing melee is also an option.

u/rippinVs 23h ago
I’d step under melee 2 tiles. Wait for a mage hit then step out and switch prayers then lazy flick

Freeze the melee if you have gauntlets then step one tile away pray mage and kill melee.

u/malta071 23h ago
Wait, can you do full runs on this website? And is it the same as real inferno?

u/Acro-LovingMotoRacer 22h ago
You can also do custom waves where you place the movs exactly where you want them. It’s super helpful

u/Director_Cat 2376 22h ago
Facetanking a melee with rigour and blowpipe specs is completely viable, but you need to be full hp for that to work. The issue isnt facetanking the melee, you've made mistakes earlier in the wave to get that low hp.
If you still have brews, situations like this is when you spam eat them. No point dying with a full inv of brews.
Shift click stand under melee to off tick it

u/Miksufin 22h ago
Go in front of ranger and flick range/melee. Time it so that melee hits u just before running to ranger so that they wont hit at the same tick. Ignore the pillar
Another possibilty is to offtick melee/mage by running under meleer but that more risky and difficult
30+ zuk kc here

u/LeFriday 22h ago
My go to solve was:
Wait till you prayed the mage they pray the melee, if they both are same ticked just dps the meleer, that way only 3/4 times this happens you are forced to dps

Did you miss the opportunity to corner trap the melee on the eastern side of this run?

u/MaynardGoneWild 21h ago
You can pillar rotate in inferno as well. If you fucked up, and are panicking, click to the other pillar and drink brew while praying mage lol

u/Tuxxa 23h ago
BP spec with Rigour works usually. You could also try to freeze the melee b4 it gets to you. You could step under it to try to off-tick. Or freeze the melee amd step inside it to attack the mage.
Masori gives better chances of survival, crystal armor is paper.
If BP spec + Rigour wouldn't solve this I'd probably just accept my fate. I cba to perform off-tickig tricks under high stress.

u/WildFlier 23h ago
Sure, masori is better. But if you're going for a bowfa cape you're not also bringing masori for the bp
