In-depth Kraken Guide (Video)

Been doing this a lot recently and had a few people ask what to use etc. so thought I'd throw a video together.

Whoa this is an sick guide + commentary. Will help a lot of players getting into killing the Kraken. Keep it up!

Solid guide, mate

 

A few notes:

- Kraken, as you said, drops tons of food, so if you're camping Augury bring mostly sanfews (I take only 4 pieces of food)

- Keep Preserve on at all times if using an Imbued heart (and Augury during kills, of course)

- You can't venom Kraken, meaning the Sanguinesti staff > Trident of the swamp (for its passive healing and 1 greater max hit)

- Bring a Hunters' crossbow, MSB, or BP to tag the tentacles

- Spec: Volatile staff spec for DPS > Eldritch staff spec for prayer > BP spec the tentacles for health

- Ring of suffering (i) > Seer's ring (i) for the +20 defence bonuses

- Technically, Ely > Spectral > Dragonfire ward > ... > Arcane (but Kraken drops so much food, I just use Arcane)

Here's my set-up for reference:

EDIT: I'm using BP now since it can tag the tentacles on rapid, whereas the Hunters' crossbow cannot (on Roat) for whatever reason. Also, I double-checked, Preserve does 100% work on Roat.
