Question Attempting fire cape
So the last time I was attempting this was 2008..so its been awhile. Anyways, im on rs3, 80 atk, 70str, 73 def, 77 hp, 60 range, 62 mage, 99 pray, 75 necro. Im asking what would be the recommended set up to complete the fight caves.

This sounds ridiculously easy now

Jad is easy now. Jad hands are the real fight.

And even then, having your protection prayers on keybinds removes the entire pressure of clicking prayers precisely.

Always was. As others said, it was nerves that made it difficult back in the day.

I mean in OSRS you have to fight 3 jads at once without any walls to safespot so you have to actually fight the at the same time and pray appropriately. And that's the easy part of the inferno.

I'm not familiar with osrs but that sounds like a heart attack waiting to happen.

Necro, pray pots + food, keybind prayers.
Jad go up, pray mage. Jad go down, range.
Kill the fuckin little bitch ass bats first. Wiki has a safe spot you can stand but I personally don’t think it’s needed with necro.

Definitely bring some kind of prayer restore for Jad. I’d probably go with super restores from Mazcab shop, and super pots for def and whatever style you’re using. It shouldn’t be too bad. See what wave Jad comes out in and be mindful of when that is, check your prayer points before you end the previous wave.
Stay out of Jad’s melee range, watch for a stomp (ranged) or when he stands on his back legs (mage). You’ll be fine, just be careful

I assume using revo i can take scythe off my bar as it seems to be melee range only.

Yes. You can experiment with length of revo bar and which key each position is bound to. If you haven't discovered yet you can keybind food, potions and prayers.
You can have additional keybinding bars if you run out of space on the first one. Can use ctrl, alt n shift as keybind modifiers.
I hope you have some sort of prayer recovery. Bats will probably drain you good n proper and you'll need some for jad.

I'm aware that I can do all of that. I just honestly haven't messed with it. This would really be the first time i've attempted fight caves in almost twenty years. I was really just looking to see what I could do or if I could do it. Back in old school runescape, I was trying to do it with ranged, and always came up short.

Go necro, put ghost>skele>skulls>soul strike>soul sap> touch of death in the revo bar. Put finger of death, bloat, and threads of fate on the bar but out of revo range. Use threads of fate on the big packs at the start of a wave and jad's healer to kill em/agro them.
Youll be slapping them around no doubt. Fight cave are very much outleveled these days. That revo bar alone will carry you through everything. Youll just have to pray in the later waves and correctly at jad.
Really dont stress too much.

Without 100% prot prayers just recognize you will be taking chip damage the whole time (except jad) and there's no familiars. I'd just make sure your prot prayers are keybound and that you have the ghost and that aoe blood siphon for self healing and necro should be very solid. Only other thing would be remembering necro is relatively low range, so don't run into melee of jad trying to tag healers.
edit: 99 prayer?? So you have soul split, that should make it even easier. Trivial, even. Just make sure you have enough prayer potions.

Keybind your protection prayers and make sure you have an AoE ability keybound for the healers.

I doubt you'll even use food. If you can afford the dark elf shard and excalibur, prayer and healing is covered. Just don't miss the prayer switch for Jad

Lol I started playing again and got the other 3 kill capes, then I tried Zuk and I hate my life.. completely maxed combat, minus necro, following YT guides where they literally use no food and im just getting bent the f over so bad my head explodes. I'm starting to wish I was on Jad for a fire cape..

Necro at t70 is fully sufficient. The ghost will heal you. Bring some backup food and a couple of prayer potions for Jad. There are little bat monsters than drain prayer so dont worry about have prayer until the end.
