Theatre of Blood gear setup
What to wear into Theatre of Blood and which switches to bring, worked out from your own bank and levels. Import your gear from Bank Memory or Inventory Setups, pick a switch budget, and see the best setup for every number of switches and which weapon to use on every fight.
The fights
Normal mode, without Verzik P1. Nylocas Vasilias changes form every 10 ticks, so each form is a third of its fight, and each needs a weapon of its style.
| Fight | Hitpoints |
|---|---|
| The Maiden of Sugadinti (Normal) | 3,500 |
| Pestilent Bloat (Normal) | 2,000 |
| Sotetseg (Normal) | 4,000 |
| Xarpus (Normal mode) | 5,000 |
| Verzik Vitur (Normal mode, Phase 2) | 3,500 |
| Verzik Vitur (Normal mode, Phase 3) | 3,500 |
Team roles
- Melee DPS — Brings a fast or multi-hit melee weapon for the Nylocas waves.
- Range DPS — Brings a blowpipe for the Nylocas waves. Chinchompas only if your team struggles, under Always bring.
- Mage freezer — Freezes Maiden’s south crabs, and mages the Nylocas. Reserves 4 slots for your freeze kit and uses Ancients.
- Melee freezer — Four and five-man: freezes Maiden’s north crabs, then melees the Nylocas with a fast weapon. Reserves 3 slots for your freeze kit and uses Ancients.
How it decides
Every fight is scored with the same damage maths as the gear progression calculator, fight rules included. A kit is measured by the whole route’s kill time — each fight’s hitpoints over your damage, times how many you kill — so a long fight counts for more than a short one. The first weapon is worn; each extra weapon, extra kind of ammunition and armour piece is one switch.
