Tormented demon

The Tormented Demon, also known as TD, was released on 26 November 2008 along with the While Guthix Sleeps quest, and requires the aforementioned quest in order to fight it. It is currently the 9th strongest monster in Runescape. It's body is odd in that it is part organic and part Dragon metal. The monster can hit 30 with magic, ranged, and melee. Tormented Demons reside in a multicombat area, so it is possible to attack it as a team. They have extremely high defence and hitpoints.

Habitat

 * In the former area of the Stone of Jas, inside the Ancient Guthix Temple.

Getting There
The easiest way to get to the Ancient Guthix Temple is to enter from Lumbridge Castle basement. A Sapphire lantern is required.

Strategy
The Tormented Demon is surrounded by a fire shield which gives it extremely high defense. Without weakening and removing the shield by hitting it with Darklight, the demon will take very little damage, similar to a Broodoo Victim. It will also use protection prayers to block against the attack style it is currently receiving the most damage from. The demon's first few attacks upon spawning are magic, and it will use magic more often than range. Occasionally it will also cast an area of effect magic spell, damaging everyone in the area for up to 30 damage, especially dangerous if 2 adjacent demons cast it consecutively. Therefore it is strongly recommended to wear prayer boosting equipment and keep Protect from Magic on the entire time that you are there. The demon is also immune to poison, and doesn't appear to be able to run out of prayer, thus also being immune to Smite.

When killing Tormented Demons in a party (or duo) it is most efficient to have an even number of Melee, Ranged and Magic users to keep the Demon constantly changing prayers. Meleers are advised to always bring darklight, and switch to a Dragon halberd or Godsword once the shield is down. Mages should use Ice and Blood spells from the Ancients book, or Claws of Guthix or Fire Wave from the modern book. Rangers should use Ruby bolts (e) and Diamond bolts (e) for their effects, or a Crystal bow. A small group can easily kill the demon, but a larger group is more efficient.

For soloing, you must bring at least two different styles of attack, preferably melee and range. Besides the ability to hit for more and use the effects of enchanted bolts, it is also significantly cheaper than using magic. There are numerous safespots, but the one in the northwest corner (upon entering, turn left) is by far the safest and easiest to use.

If you have the Summoning level, it is also recommended to bring a Bunyip, Unicorn stallion, Ice titan, Fire titan or Moss titan for extra healing. Alternatively you can also bring a beast of burden such as the Pack Yak or War tortoise to carry extra supplies.

This area is multicombat, which means other demons can attack you as well, thus making it extremely dangerous. It is highly advisable to wear a ring of life.
