What should I upgrade next?

Method-specific progression priorities

1

Abyssal bludgeon → Inquisitor's mace with Avernic defender

Improve the primary style first so prayer reactions resolves with fewer switches.

Major upgrade
2

Complete the recommended style set: Inquisitor's mace with Avernic defender + Inquisitor's great helm, hauberk and plateskirt + Sanguinesti staff

Add the remaining combat-style switches once husk and parasite control can be handled without losing position.

Moderate upgrade
3

Scythe of vitur

Complete the Phosani's Nightmare high-end set only after every required combat style has a reliable weapon.

Minor upgrade
Upgrade ROIEnter upgrade values to calculate

Common mistakes

Avoidable causes of failed or inefficient trips

Ignoring prayer reactions

Losing position during husk and parasite control

Mishandling floor and dash hazards: Maintain a safe path through repeated movement checks.
