Akrisae the Doomed

Akrisae the Doomed is the seventh and the youngest of the Barrows brothers. Akrisae's crypt is a joint crypt shared with Verac the Defiled in the north-west of the Barrows area, only accessible after completing the quest Ritual of the Mahjarrat. Both tombs are in separate rooms of the crypt. He is the wight of Akrisae Kolluym, who was turned by Sliske during Ritual of the Mahjarrat, jumping in the way of Sliske's spell to save the player. Akrisae attacks with magic using his war mace, and also uses protection prayers.

Akrisae's set effect: Akrisae's Doom, give's him the chance to drain the player's prayer in a similar manner to that of a player wearing an entire set of Akrisae's equpment. When a player not using prayer attack's him and the effect activates, he will say "Ahh, more prayers.". Akrisae attacks using magic with a maximum hit of 1700, and is very accurate, so Protect from Magic/Deflect Magic is advised. Akrisae also uses protection prayers in accordance to what the player is using. After approximatley 1450 damage is dealt he will swap prayer, requiring a player to use at least two combat styles in order to defeat him.



Akrisae is weak to Bolts, therefore a strong ranged weapon such as a Royal Crossbow, or a pair of Dual Chaotic Crossbow 's are recommended, alongside another strong weapon such as a Chaotic Maul or a Chaotic Staff casting Fire Surge to counter his prayer switching. Abilities such as Incendiary shot (A bow Ultimate Ability), Meteor Strike, Overpower and Omnipower are useful to deal large amounts of damage before he switches prayers. If in combat with him long enough he will run out of prayer in a similar fashion to a player. With the Evolution of Combat update, players can switch to or from magic simply by equipping or un-equipping a staff or wand, which greatly helps when switching combat styles.

Trivia

 * Players who have completed Ritual of the Mahjarrat cannot see players who have not completed the quest whilst in Verac's crypt. This is because the crypt with Verac and Akrisae and Verac's normal crypt are in fact two separate dungeons. However if a player fights Akrisae in the catacombs, other players can see him.
 * Before the Evolution of Combat, Akrisae attacked with melee.
 * There is a glitch where if you kill Guthan first, there is a slight chance of Akriase's face appearing when you get prayer drained, even if you didn't kill Akriase first or have not done Ritual of the Mahjarrat yet.
