Mechanics

#PhaseDescription
1Entry Phase (BGS/DWH Spec)On entry, use DWH specs first to reduce the Corp's Defence by 30% per successful hit. Follow with BGS specs to stack further Defence reduction. This dramatically increases damage for the rest of the fight.
2Main DPS PhaseAttack with the Zamorakian spear — all other weapons deal 50% reduced damage. Corp hits hard with Melee and Magic. Protect from Magic when you see the magic attack animation. A dark energy core spawns periodically.
3Dark Energy Core PhaseThe dark energy core spawns and follows the player furthest from the boss. It must be killed immediately — it heals the Corporeal Beast significantly. Stomp it by standing on it, then resume DPS.

Tips & tricks

  • The Zamorakian spear is not optional — any other weapon deals exactly half damage.
  • DWH specs before BGS specs: DWH multiplicatively reduces Defence, making BGS stacking far more effective.
  • In a team, designate one player as the core-killer — staying far from the boss so the core follows them.
  • Spec transfer with an Ancient mace in a large team allows continuous DPS spec rotations.
  • Solo Corp is possible but very slow — bring 4+ Super restores and expect long kill times.
  • The magic attack is a bouncing orb — switch to Protect from Magic when you see it.
