Introduction

The Dominion Tower is a minigame in where you can find bosses from previous quests. You can get to it by walking east of the Shanty Pass, and cross the bridge.

Outside of Dominion Tower

Once you get there, you have to talk to the Strange face, or else you can't bank. You can get a Dominion medallion from him, which also teleports you to the Dominion Tower up to 3 times a day.

Modes

There are 5 different modes in the tower; Climbing, Endurance, Freestyle, Spectating and Special. You can also spectate others fighting in the arena with the Dominion medallion or Super dominion medallion.

Modes

Climbing

In this mode, you will get a random boss to face. Once the boss is picked, you can click on the gate to enter the arena. That will trigger a handicap wheel to spin, in which you will receive a handicap that will carry over from fight to fight.

Handicap screen

You have 3 chances to either "nudge" or "re-spin" the handicap wheel to possible get a more help handicap that could benefit you better than another.

Below you find a list of the handicaps. When you nudge a handicap, the tower will scroll UP. So if you nudge ‘poison’ the ‘reduced ranged defence’ handicap will be activated.

Image	Handicap	Information
	Life Saver	Once your lifepoints drop too low, you will heal to full lifepoints, full prayer points, full summoning points and full special attack energy.
	No Potions	You are not allowed to use potions. Including saradomin brews, flasks and dominion potions.
	No Power-ups	You are not allowed to use the helphorn or any of the bombs.
	Reduced Ranged Defence	You will take more damage from Ranged attacks.
	Poison	You are poisoned with a start of 108 lifepoints per hit.
	Random Daze	Every 10-15 secondes you will stop fighting and Auto Retaliate will be swithed off.
	Reduced Magic Defence	You will take more damage from magic attacks.
	No Special Attacks	You are not allowed to use special attacks. Exception: the Ancient mace special attack when fighting Sigmund can still be used as well as the Korasi's sword special attack when facing the Pest Queen.
	Disease	Every 10-15 secondes you will get hit for about 5 lifepoints and a random stat will be reduced.
	Reduced Magic Attack	You magic attacks will be less effective.
	Slippery Fingers	During the match your weapon will be occasionally unequipped and go to your inventory. When the message in your chatbox warns you the handicap will happen in a few moments, you can re-equip your weapon yourself. Or you can equip a second weapon which is already in your inventory and thus save time. Also, if your inventory is full, this handicap won’t do anything.
	No Prayers	You are not allowed to use prayers or curses.
	Monster Stun	At the beginning of every match you enemy will be stunned for about 10 secondes.
	No Familiar	You are not allowed to use a familiar.
	Reduced Ranged Attack	You ranged attacks are less effective.
	No Body Armour	At the beginning of every match, your body armour will be forced into your bank. If your bank is full, it will be forced into your inventory. If both are full, it will be dropped.
	Halved Life Points	At the beginning of every match, your lifepoints will be reduced to half of your maximum lifepoints.
	Random Freeze	During the fight you will be random freezed. It is much like being hit by an ice spell, but without the damage. You won’t be able to move for about 3 seconds.
	Reduced Melee Defence	Melee attacks will hit you much harder.
	No Food	You are not allowed to use food NOT including saradomin brews and healing special attacks.
	No Shield	Your shield will be forced into your bank. If your bank is full, it will be forced into your inventory. If both are full, it will be dropped. It is a good idea to use a 2 handed weapon like a godsword or spear when suffering this handicap. Use super anti-fire potions when facing Elvarg.
	Reduced Melee Attack	Your melee attacks are less effective.

If you die while in a battle, you will gain significantly less Dominion Favor. If you want to stop, you can click the "hold on" button instead, and you claim your reward or go back down to the lobby. You can also bank between each fight.

Endurance

This mode is just a bit different from Climbing. This mode does not have any handicaps, and you are not allowed to bank between the floors.

Freestyle

In this mode, you can pick any boss you want, as long as you've done the quest the boss is in, as well as you have beat them in Climbing and Endurance modes. You can also select any handicaps you want.

Special

Fight	Description
Revenge of the Evil Chickens	Fend off 15 evil chickens.
Finish Him!	Defeat Arrav, Koschei the Deathless, General Khazard, Black Knight Guardian, the Kendal, and the Black, Grey and White golems. They start at 20% health.

Spectating

You are able to spectate others in the arena. You are able to tag them with the Dominion medallion you can get from the Strange Face in the lobby of the tower. You are able to spectate from the spectating points on the side of the arena.
Note: The player being spectated must have accept aid turned on for this to work.

Bosses

These are the bosses that are in the tower. You need to complete the quest the boss is in to be able to fight them in the tower.

Class A
Name	Quest needed to unlock	Tips and tricks
Decaying Avatar	Nomad's Requiem	This actually is a very easy fight. Just take 2 or 3 prayer potions with you and pray Protect from Melee whilst melee’ing him. A defence reducing weapon like Goliath Gloves or Bandos Godsword would certainly help. Like in the quest three roots will spawn and the Avatar will try to eat them and heal himself. The spawn at 75%, 50% and 25% of his health at the North-West, North-East and South-West corner respectively.
Eruni, Ayuni and Leeuni	Do No Evil	Another hard fight. Together the three apes are more dangerous than Nomad. It is a good thing you can trap them. When the fight starts, run behind a pilar. Eruni won’t move and can’t hit you with her magic-ranged attack. Leeuni will be on the other side of the pilar and can’t hit you either. Ayuni will teleport next to you and attack you whilst draining your prayer a bit. Kill her with ranged or melee. Then swith to ranged and use the accurate style of your bow. Hit Leeuni once and run back behind your pilar. Hit her again and run back again. If you do this fast enough, she won’t hit half of the time. When she is dead, attack Eruni. When she spawns Lesser Demons, hide behind pilars and kill the Lessers with ranged from your safespot. When facing any ape, keep protect from magic on all the time. (Especially when using melee armour.)
Dagannoth Mother (v2)	Blood Runs Deep	The Horror From the Deep is back. Again. Hit her once with Balmung (provided in the arena) and use the attack style she is weak to. Pray whatever your armor is weak to. She uses all 3 sides of the combat triangle. Weakness: White: wind attacks Blue: water attacks Brown: earth attacks Red: fire attacks Green: ranged attacks Orange: melee attacks (NOTE: you can’t walk her like the other Dagannoth Mother because she doesn’t change colors randomly.)
Nomad	Nomad's Requiem	Even if you defeated him in the quest, Nomad remains a hard boss. I recommend you use the same strategy you used during the quest for this boss. Use high magic absorbing armor like Ganodermic and keep an eye out for his special attacks: - Flame Vortices: he spawns mines around you. Don’t run on them! - Soul Blast: he throws an attack at you that will hit 750. Try to avoid this by running behind a pillar. - Mirror Image: he makes 3 clones of himself. The last one who attacks is the real Nomad. Hit him once and the others will disappear. OR run behind a pillar and wait a minute or so till the clones disappear. - Disintegrate: he teleports to the middle of the arena en starts charging his most powerful attack. Heal because the attack will hit with your maximum lifepoints-1.
Pest Queen (plus drones)	The Void Stares Back	Unlike in the quest the Elite Defilers can’t be trapped behind the Queen. You will have to tank their attacks. Only use the Korasi’s sword provided in the arena. Your own Korasi’s will use 60% of the special attack bar and won’t hit hard on the queen. Also, don’t bother about taking bomb power ups with you. They will NOT work on the queen. Get the attention of the two Defilers by attacking them once and tank their attacks for the entire fight. Now focus on the Queen. If she rears up use the special attack of your Korasi’s sword or she will hit you and your helpers for about 500 lifepoints. Just keep attacking the Queen. An average fight takes about 10 minutes.
Zenevivia	Love Story	When facing this boss in Climber, it is recommended you take a dragon spear and a halberd with you. If you don’t have a dragon spear, a ranged weapon will do fine. Four times in battle Zenevivia will teleport to one of the four pedestals and pray Protect from Magic. Use your dragon spear special attack to knock her off. OR attack her one time with ranged so she will pray Protect from Ranged and the Wise Old Man can hit her. During the fight she will spawn fires under you that will constantly hit unblockable 30’s. Keep running around the arena to avoid this. When she is on her pillar she will knock you back when you melee her. Use a halberd OR the hit-and-run method: hit her once, run 90° left/right and hit her again. (She will knock you back, but that won’t damage you.)
Class B
Name	Quest needed to unlock	Tips and tricks
Dagannoth sentinels	Blood Runs Deep	You have to kill these two friends together. It is highly recommended to alter you attacks between the two sentinels because they will heal each other if one of them is more damaged than the other.
Damis, Fareed, Kamil and Dessous	Desert Treasure	Make sure you pray Protect from Melee. Take Dessous out first because he will use a magic/ranged attack. Next is Kamil who will freeze you. Now take out Fareed. NOTE: you have to wear ice gloves or your weapon will be unequipped. Damis is last. He has two forms and the second one will hit through your prayer. Tip: Use Goliath Gloves as their stats reducing special will hit all enemies and they won’t be unequipped by Fareed.
Karamel and Gelatinnoth Mother	Recipe for Disaster	Take out Karamel first because she will drain your stats with her ice magics. Then kill the Gelatinnoth Mother who uses the same protection as the Dagannoth Mothers. NOTE: You can "walk" the Gelatinnoth Mother just like the Dagannoth Mother (version 1). The trick is to put your run energy off and walk to the side of the arena which is behind the Mother. Once you arrive there, the Mother will change direction and you can walk to the other side again. Whilst using this tactic, she won’t attack you. This is very useful if you forgot to bring runes.
Nezikchened	Legends' Quest	Just another demon. Pray Protect from Melee and melee him. OR use ranged or magic while praying Protect from Magic.
The Everlasting and The Illusive	Dream Mentor	Pray Protect from Melee and take out the Everlasting first. The Illustive will flee from you once you hit him once. He will re-appear somewhere on the western side of the arena. Just hunt him down.
The Untouchable	Dream Mentor	Untouchable maybe, but not Invincible. Use a melee weapon and pray Protect from Melee and you’ll be fine.
Class C
Name	Quest needed to unlock	Tips and tricks
Arrav	The Curse of Arrav	This fallen hero of Varrock uses melee so pray Protect from Melee. He will talk to you two times in battle so you have to use your spacebar during this match.
Balance Elemental	While Guthix Sleeps	This Guardian of the Stone of Jas is a strong boss. He uses very strong ranged attacks so Protect from Ranged is recommended. However you can swith your prayer according to his attack style. When he wields a bow in his hand, he will use ranged. When his hand is a huge club, he will use melee. And when he isn’t wearing anything, he will use magic. He will randomly fire a magic spell even whilst using melee or ranged, so bring enough food with you.
Giant Roc	My Arm's Big Adventure	This little bird uses ranged and melee attacks. Protect from Ranged is recommended because she will also fire a huge rock at you which will hit as a ranged attack. She also does a stun attack which will knock you back for about 4 squares.
Ice demon	The Temple at Senntisten	He uses magic and ranged. But he uses magic far more often then ranged so Protect from Magic is recommended. He will also randomly freeze you and interrupt your combat.
Jungle demon	Monkey Madness	This demon switches attack styles according to your prayer. If you pray melee, he will use magic and vice versa. I recommend praying magic and wearing melee armor. OR you can stay at a distance whilst praying magic. You won’t be hit this way because he doesn’t move to you when you are out of melee range.
The Inadequacy (plus doubts)	Dream Mentor	The Inadequacy uses ranged from afar and melee when in close range. I recommend you melee him whilst praying melee because the four Doubts will also use melee.
Class D
Name	Quest needed to unlock	Tips and tricks
Arrg	Troll Romance	Big troll. Just melee him. Protect from Melee could be useful.
Barrelchest (version I)	The Great Brain Robbery	You can’t use prayer in this fight. However with good armor you won’t need food whilst melee’ing him. You can also range him and run away if he comes to close.
Chronozon	Family Crest	This demon has to be hit with all four blast spells before you can kill him. Don’t worry, runes are provided in the arena and your spellbook will switch to normal during the match. Just make sure you hit him with the spells before you kill him because he is quite weak.
Evil Chicken	Recipe for Disaster	Pray Protect from Magic and kill this little chick.
Flambeed, Agrith-Na-Na and Dessourt	Recipe for Disaster	Pray melee. First is Dessourt because he uses magic/ranged. Next is Flambeed who will sometimes use magic and last is Agrith-Na-Na, a pure melee user.
Giant Scarab	Contact!	He uses melee in close range and a poisonous ranged attack from afar. He summons melee, magic and ranged users to help him in the fight. Just ignore them as they will die once the Giant Scarab is dead. I suggest you pray whatever your armor is weak to.
Class E
Name	Quest needed to unlock	Tips and tricks
Arzinian Avatar	Between a Rock...	He uses magic but prayers aren’t necessary as he is only combat level 75.
Bouncer	Fight Arena	Pray melee and do whatever you want. It’s just a little dog.
General Khazard	Fight Arena	He has two forms. Both use pure melee. Killing one of the forms takes about as much time as reading this.
Koschei the Deathless	The Fremennik Trials	He has four forms and will drain your prayer when you starts his last form. So I suggest you use all prayer points you got on the first forms and save your special attack weapon for his last and strongest form. He uses melee.
The Black Knight Guardian	A Void Dance	He uses pure melee but he will heal himself with your prayer points once his health is below 50%.
The Black Knight Titan	Holy Grail	Pure melee user.
Class F
Name	Quest needed to unlock	Tips and tricks
Agrith Naar	Shadow of the Storm	Only Silverlight can kill this demon. (Weapon provided in the arena.) You can damage him with any weapon but the finishing blow has to be with Silverlight.
Black, Grey and White Golems	Spirits of the Elid	They use melee and are very strong against all styles except: Black=crush, Grey=slash and White=stab. You can kill them with another style, but it goes very slow. (About 5 minutes per kill.)
Dad	Troll Stronghold	This huge troll uses melee and will sometimes knock you back.
Dagannoth Mother (v1)	Horror From The Deep	To kill this big dagannoth you need to switch attack styles. White: air attack Blue: water attack Brown: earth attack Red: fire attack Green: ranged attack Orange: melee attack NOTE: You can walk the Dagannoth Mother. The trick is to put your run energy off and walk to the side of the arena which is behind the Mother. Once you arrive there, the Mother will change direction and you can walk to the other side again. Whilst using this tactic, she won’t attack you. This is very useful if you forgot to bring runes.
Dramen Tree Spirit	Lost City	Another melee user. Now you can use something else than a bronze hatchet.
TokTz-Ket-Dill	TokTz-Ket-Dill	You have to crush his armor with a rune or dragon pickaxe with the crush attack style. Once his armor is broken, you can use any crush weapon.
Class G
Name	Quest needed to unlock	Tips and tricks
Culinaromancer	Recipe for Disaster	This evil cook is only level 75 and uses magic only.
Draugen	The Fremennik Trials	Another weak melee user.
Elvarg	Dragon Slayer	The most famous dragon in Runescape. He uses dragonfire and melee. Make sure you have some kind of dragonfire protection or he will hit over 700.
The Kendal	Mountain Daughter	I’m not going to waste words on this one. Just kill him.
Treus Dayth	Haunted Mine	He summons pickaxes to kill you. They are very weak so don’t mind them. Kill Treus Dayth. He will sometimes disappear. Just wait till he appears again.
Tumeken's shadow	Missing My Mummy	You have to fight the 5 forms of Tumeken’s Shadow at the same time. The strongest one is combat level 72 and they use melee.
Class H
Name	Quest needed to unlock	Tips and tricks
Count Draynor	Vampyre Slayer	Pick up the stake and hammer (provided in the arena) and kill him. Your character will use the items once the Count is at low lifepoints.
Delrith	Demon Slayer	He can only be harmed with Silverlight (provided in the arena). So pick up the weapon and hit him. You will almost always kill him in one hit.
Melzar the Mad	Dragon Slayer	Watch out for the cabbages! They are more dangerous than Melzar.
Sigmund	Another Slice of H.A.M.	Pick up the Ancient mace (provided in the arena) and hit Sigmund first without using the special attack. He will pray Protect from Melee. Now use your mace’s special attack to disable his prayer.
Solus Dellagar	Wanted!	A mage who stabs with his staff? He won’t hit you. You however will kill him in a few blows.
Tarn Razorlor	The Lair of Tarn Razorlor	Tarn himself is a very weak melee user. He has however 4 terrordogs to help him. Just pray melee and ignore his pets as they will disappear once Tarn dies.
