​

== Introduction ==

This guide assumes a '''very''' strong understanding of everything found in [https://pvme.io/pvme-guides/basic-guides/telos-basic/ Telos Basic], [https://pvme.io/pvme-guides/rs3-full-boss-guides/telos/stuns-and-mechanics/ Stuns And Mechanics] and [https://pvme.io/pvme-guides/rs3-full-boss-guides/telos/p5-movement-and-timing/ P5 Movement And Timing].

​

This guide assumes 250%+ and works best at 1000%+, but these rotations still work below 250% with some tweaks. Adjust accordingly from there - below 250%, these rotations can be loosely followed but after that, you definitely want to make sure you follow them.

​
