2000% Group Zamorak
Zamorak - Group 2000% Enrage (2-5 man)
Introduction
This guide focuses on obtaining consistent 6 kill hours at 2000% enrage in groups of 2-5 at Zamorak. The strategies in this guide assume a strong knowledge of the Zamorak encounter already from #Zamorak Basic Guide / #unknown-channel, and require near-BiS gear as well as solid execution. In addition, strong improvisational skills are required in case of non-regular spec order.
This guide assumes a STRICT order - any deviation from phasing on these specific specs will invalidate the rest of the guide.

Additional Role Notes
In general, more than 2 witch killers will not improve killtimes at all. Instead, if doing 4 or 5 man kills the extra players should stay outside and use DoTs to help prevent healing + apply to lower damage taken.
Additionally, any more than 3 people killing runes on P7 tends to not improve killtimes. One of the extra players should

Edict Order
This guide assumes order of 2-4-1-3-6-5
Witch Killing Rotation
Since the base has a limited amount of DoTs to use, it is imperative to kill the witch ASAP on every phase to prevent grey HP from increasing too much.

Handling Mechanics
Flames of Zamorak
Base: stand east + in MD of Zamorak for flames specials on P1 and P2 to force smoke upon yourself
DPS: stand west of Zamorak for flames specials on P1 and P2 to allow the base to stand MD and tank smoke
Note: if there is any smoke on the ground from getting a Flames of Zamorak spec towards the end of P6, use to pick it up off the ground before phasing into P7
Adrenaline Cages (except P2)
P2 adrenaline cage should always be handled by DPS1 + + the base tank
Duo/Trio:
⬥ Very close/already phased → Base tanks the cage on their own (

Rune of Destruction
As base, be careful where you stand towards the end of the Rune of Destruction spec, as getting an Adrenaline Cage + black smoke from the Rune hitting at the same time can be deadly.
Other Important Information
Spec Timing
Autos carry over between phases. Zamorak naturally has 5 autos between specs on green hp which can carry over from green hp to red hp on next phase.
e.g. boss does infernus spec on P1, followed by 2 autos before phasing into grey hp gives 3 autos on the next red hp before he will do a spec.
This is important as knowing how many autos before a spec will occur on the next red hp phase will change how early you want to charge the pad if you're trying to skip the spec.
After phasing from red hp to green hp, Zamorak will ALWAYS use his next spec after 1 auto.
Grey HP Healing Prevention
If the boss' hp is at it's max grey hp, every tick it will slightly increase it's max grey hp. To prevent this, on every tick the boss must be below its max hp, which can be achieved by having a hitsplat land on every tick. Such methods include using damage over time abilities such as and back to back in order to completely prevent healing. This is one of the most important things that the base tank must do to have smooth and fast kills.
A standard rotation to prevent healing in trios or above looks something like this: → → → 
In duos, the base may have to use DoTs more sparingly due to the witch killer taking longer ( → → → → )
Prisms of Restoration can be cast at the start of every phase to allow for more ripper demon specs.

Do NOT phase Zamorak into grey HP until the Infernal Tomb message occurs
Phase 1 Infernus Setup:
5 autos after Flames of Zamorak, will do the Infernal Tomb spec. The aim of this rotation is to instantly phase into grey hp (making him heal) ASAP after Infernal Tomb message starts in order to spawn the witch + demons simultaneously, making it easy to stack them for massive AOE damage, while also preventing from healing via applying on specific ticks.
All of these rotations start on the tick that says "step into the dark" as yellow text appears above his head.

⬥ (autocast ) + → → →
DPS
⬥ (autocast ) → → stall → release +
This lines up magma hits so that cannot heal while magma is still dealing damage
While in infernus:
Base
Immediately run 1 tile east of the witch spawn location so that demons + witches stack up for big AOE damage
DPS
Stand several tiles west of the witch so as to not prevent demons from aggroing base and stacking up for AOE
In duos: Base should use

In 4man/5man: DPS can skip , Base can instead of .

The smoke will hit on different timings depending on how many autos it took after Flames of zamorak spec happened before phasing into grey hp.
⬥ 0/2/4 autos: smoke and auto hit different ticks (can use / / + )

Phase 3
Phase 3 General overview:
The aim of phase 3 is to skip spec on red hp, followed by everyone stunning on the correct tick pre-Infernus, ice barraging demons + aoeing them down, then DPSers

Base should + as far west as possible slightly after chaos blast to move the boss closer to pad 6 for next phase.
Phase 4 - Rune of Destruction
Avoid smoke hits. The lifeweaver that spawns west can be ignored, unless the boss is already close to being phased and there is still time to kill the lifeweaver.
Lower boss' hp until Adrenaline Cage spec → dump thresholds to phase into grey hp.

Everyone should as close to pad as possible to take advantage of pad 4 bonus damage from being near a rune, skip spec on red hp, DO NOT STUN on chaos blast → phase boss to grey hp → base + the team.
At this point your ability cooldowns are quite a bit lower than normal:

Phase 6
Phase 6 General Overview
→ , skip red HP spec, ideally kill before Flames of Zamorak
Assuming the boss is lured correctly and all are standing next to the southeast corner of pad 5, the smoke should only hit each player at MOST once until very late into the rune spec, so there is no reason to move to avoid it until then.
Note: DO NOT unless you have 10s cooldown or less
