Kalphite Queen
Kalphite Queen
Introduction
As a very old boss, Kalphite Queen is relatively unrewarding and relatively simple. Typically only done for the pet or collection log, there is no further reason for a high level account to do this boss. The only notable mechanic is her form change. She will spawn into the instance immune to 
and 
. After the first 40k damage is dealt, she will change forms to her flying form, which is immune to 
. More information available here: https://runescape.wiki/w/Kalphite_Queen
If doing the boss on a low level account for a Reaper task, bring your best and / equipment, along with some food and poison protection.
If farming the boss for log on a high level account, you can do it actively for 88+ KPH or AFK for 40-45 KPH.

Preset Notes
⬥ The 
damage and accuracy boosts work when on a Kalphites task.
Active Strategy
⬥ You will be instance hopping between the uninstanced encounter and an instanced encounter.
• This method will work better if you have a friend in the instance to eliminate the wait for the initial spawn.
⬥ Uninstanced encounter rotation:
• First form: 
→ 
→ 
→ 
/ 
→ 
⬩ Use basics 
in between if entering with low adrenaline.
• Waiting for second form spawn: Use basic on minion → Swap to 
+ 
minion → 
/ 
if 100% adrenaline → 
minion
• Second form: Auto + 
→ 
→ → 
and/or
⬩ Immediately climb out once KQ HP hits 0. KC and loot in the uninstanced encounter will register even if you are not in it.
• (tc) + 
/ 
minion + rejoin instanced encounter
⬥ Instanced encounter rotation:
• Before spawn (if entering on empty instance): 
→ 
→ 
for adren if needed.
⬩ (tc) just after runs out.
• The first form and second form rotations are the same as above.
• Upon KQ death, do your switch and (tc) + before climbing out if you're the only one in the encounter.
⬩ Climbing out immediately and leaving the instance empty before KQ finishes the dying animation will cause the kill to not count and no loot will register. This is avoided if you have a friend in the instance.
• If missing pet, wait for the loot to appear first before climbing up.
• (tc) + → join uninstanced encounter
⬥ Sip 
whenever needed.
