RuneScape Fist of Guthix Guide

Ok, Fist Of Guthix is a popular mini-game for people of all combat levels in Runescape. Why Popular? Because with the tokens you get many rewards and it’s all very exciting. But what if you’re having trouble winning? Well, read my guide and you should know some of the tips I know and use.

When you enter the Fist Of Guthix hall, you will automatically receive 5 heal bandages that heal 15 hp a piece , a Tele-Orb, 1,000 Elemental Runes – Work as a replacement for any elemental runes; (Earth, Air, Fire, Water and last but not least, 300 Catalytic Runes – Work as a replacement for any non-elemental runes; (Mind, Chaos, Death, Blood, Nature and Soul).  

You should already know that also the middle gives you the most charges; (help you win the game if you got more charges than your oppenent), recharges your run energy faster, but you are weaker in the middle.

The game is split into two rounds, You being the Hunter or Hunted, and the opponent being the Hunter or Hunted.

Hunted:

You will know that if your the hunted, it’ll say, “the effectiveness of your stats has been reduced”, in the chat log and when you see this put on your run and pick up a stone and quickly wield it. Stay for a bit and then run into the middle and put on your armour, but not too heavy armour like armour from melee, magic and ranging. if you have a good defence, put on your “protect from” prayer on and just stay in the middle, using up all your bandages, and waiting until you die. If you don’t, like me, run around the place and stay at a place north, right behind a big rock wall and don’t move otherwise you get 5 charges per tick instead of 10. When you see a flashing arrow on your minimap, run like hell until you get rid of the arrow (can’t see it for a while). Stay near a exit because when the hunter comes and attacks you, he or she might accidently click on the exit, and leave, leaving you to win and getting rating and tokens. Also, there are “safe houses” to go into if your hunter is following you and there are four of them and you can use the portal in the middle of them to teleport around but you will lose 20 charges everytime you use the portals and sometimes it’ll fail and teleport you around the middle of the place.

Also take in note, that you CANNOT quickly re-enter a house if you have just left, you will have to wait a couple of seconds. Even better, if you have done the Lumbridge/Draynor achievement diary for free-to-play people, you can use the ring to quickly restore your run energy.

Hunter:

As I said before, if you don’t see, “the effectiveness of your stats has been reduced”, your the hunter. It is almost essential to have good magic in here because this is the dominating combat form here. Because you get free runes to train with and you don’t have to waste money to buy them, you don’t have to keep right-clicking and left-clicking to attack, and you don’t have to run that much or run around things to attack your opponent. Equip any magic bonusing items like magic amulet, explorer ring and any else you have got. Make sure you HAVE A STAFF. This way you can keep attacking your opponent automatically. Usually, your oppenent will be in the middle, so if you want to keep hitting high, turn on any prayer magic boosts you can use and select the magic only xp things under the two crossed swords, (unless you want to train defence as well). This way you can kill your “hunted” easier. 90% of the time, if you quickly use the Tele-Orb and run across opposite of where you were, the hunted is there.

Thanks for reading my guide, I hope you have learnt something about the mini-game and I’ll add more guides in the upcoming future. Make sure you click “I Like It”, if you liked this guide.
