The strategy: now when you start off fog, if you see RED words in the text box, it basically means you are being hunted. If you see Green words, it means you are hunting.
Hunted
So you're hunted. If that's the case, once the countdown is over, run to a stone that has the option “take stone dispenser”, and click it to get a stone. Now wield the stone. Then, run to the centre of the arena.
Once u see an arrow in the minimap, turn your view to see what he is wearing. Run to the SIDE of the fist of guthix, not on top of the fist of guthix (the big glowy green thing). Now, u look at the clothes the opponent is wearing, if he is wearing mage armour, change to green dragonhide armour. If he is wearing melee, wear melee and if ranged, use melee armour as well.
Now, u just let him hit. The reason why u are on the side of the fist is so that you can see the opponent. If he switches attack, immediately change armour according to the above. Now, you just endure all hits, and its best to use protection prayers according to the attack. REMEMBER TO EAT FOOD! IT IS NOOBY TO FORGET TO EAT! Well, that's all. Please note, there is something you can do to slow down the opponent's attack!
If he is a ranger/mage, RUN TOWARDS THE HOUSE, BUT DON'T ENTER IT! Basically, when the mage/ ranger attacks, STILL HAVING PRAYER ON, run to the opposite side of the house that the person is. He will be stuck behind the house trying to attack you.
IF HE IS A WARRIOR, run towards a small rockish wall thing, and start running around it, just like the one against mages, except it only works for warriors. Because? He will be stuck behind the rock!
Hunter
Warrior/mage hybrid technique: Basically you just run around with mage armour and a rune scimitar. When the game starts, immediately use the teleport stone, and run in the opposite direction u came from. When u see the person with an arrow on his head, use bind. Now run towards him and slice the heck out of him. If he starts running, just chase. If he teleports, just wait for ur character to find him, and kill him. Now, you just basically go to ur spellbook and start attacking him using magic. When he turns on protect from magic, start using melee again. Repeat the process till he's dead.
If he runs into a house, just shout “RUN NOOB! RUN!” Then stay around that house for 10 seconds, then go back to the middle. If you don't see him for at least 20 seconds, go run in the opposite direction the house was. Now just kill him.
RANGE TECHNIQUE: Just kill the guy!
Hope you enjoyed the guide!
