Nex is one of the five bosses found inside of the God Wars dungeon. She resides within the ancient prison, located below the dungeon. The frozen door leading to the prison can be found south between the armadyl eyrie and the saradomin encampment. Players who wish to enter will need 70 agility in order to squeeze through the obstacle pipe leading to the prison. The dungeon itself can be accessed by using the Trollheim teleport and navigating down the mountain torwards Trollheim's northern exit. Additionally, players can directly teleport to the entrance by using a ferocious ring or a GWD tablet.

Unlike all other God Wars dungeon bosses, Nex's chamber does not require any form of killcount in order to enter. Ancient creatures within the prison will be aggressive towards the player if they are not wearing an ancient ceremonial robe set, but blood reavers will always be aggressive regardless of what the player wears. If any player dies while in Nex's chamber, then their items will spawn on the floor outside of the chamber's entrance rather than inside where they originally died.

Players can choose to fight any of the God Wars dungeon bosses as an instance by right-clicking on the door to the boss chamber and creating one before entering. In an instance, other players can only join if they know the name of the instance originally created.

Mechanics

Nex has a total of 6 phases, each using different mechanics throughout the duration of the fight. Nex will always use a standard melee attack alongside a multi-target magic or ranged attack, depending on the current phase. Teams should keep in mind that she will not target a single player for too long before moving to someone else, so swapping between protection prayers to avoid all of her attacks can become much more difficult.

If at any time a player is near the center of the arena, Nex will occasionally move to the center and shout out "There is no escape!" She will then proceed to quickly fly down one of the four lanes (depending on where the player targeted currently is), knocking back any players in her path and dealing up to 40 damage three times. Players can avoid this attack by quickly moving out of the current lane, or can negate any damage by activating one of the spirit shields' special ability.

Phase 1 (Water): The first phase is relatively straightforward as Nex does not use any other particular mechanics: she will only use her melee attack or her multi-target magic attack. At the end of the phase, Nex will summon Fumus, who attacks with magic attacks. If players do not kill him fast enough, then Nex will later sacrifice him to heal herself for 300 hitpoints.

Phase 2 (Smoke): The second phase begins once Nex reaches 2,000 hitpoints. Her attacks do not change, but her magic attack gains the ability to poison players for 6 damage. Players can avoid her poison damage by using antipoisons, super antipoisons, or the poison purge aura. At the end of the phase, Nex will summon Umbra, who attacks with ranged attacks. If players do not kill him fast enough, then Nex will later sacrifice him to heal herself for 300 hitpoints.

Phase 3 (Shadow): The third phase begins once Nex reaches 1,600 hitpoints. Her multi-target attack will now deal ranged damage. Additionally, Nex will occasionally summon a shadow barrage covering a random portion of the arena which deals constant magic damage should a player stand in it. This damage will hit through the protect from magic prayer and can only be avoiding by using the special ability of one of the spirit shields. At the end of the phase, Nex will summon Cruor, who attacks with magic attacks. If players do not kill him fast enough, then Nex will later sacrifice him to heal herself for 300 hitpoints.

Phase 4 (Blood): The fourth phase begins once Nex reaches 1,200 hitpoints. Her multi-target attack will now deal magic damage. Additionally, Nex will occasionally shout out "I demand your blood!" summoning a blood barrage underneath every player which will deal significant damage and heal Nex for the amount dealt should players not move from their current positions. At the end of the phase, Nex will summon Glacies, who attacks with magic attacks that can freeze the player for a short time. If players do not kill him fast enough, then Nex will later sacrifice him to heal herself for 300 hitpoints.

Phase 5 (Ice): The fifth phase begins once Nex reaches 800 hitpoints. Her attacks do not change. Nex will now occasionally summon a ice barrage underneath every player which can deal up to 102 damage and freeze the player should they not move from their current positions. At the end of the phase, Nex will shout out "Zaros, protect me!" and become temporarily immune to all damage, reflecting back and healing off of any damage dealt.

Phase 6 (Zaros): The final phase begins once Nex reaches 400 hitpoints. Her multi-target attack will now do ranged damage. Additionally, she will continue to protect herself from all incoming damage, healing herself back to 400 hitpoints, reflecting back and healing off of all damage dealt. Players will have to move to the center of the arena in order to kill her.
