I. Introduction
Corporeal Beast is currently one of the strongest Bosses in game and is known for his famous Sigil drops, which can be used to make the strongest shields in game. This Boss is located in a MULTI combat zone and DOES NOT require a current membership to kill. I've written this guide based on my own personal experience at Corporeal Beast and what I think are the best and most efficient strategies for killing him.
II. Gear & Inventory Setups
Corporeal Beast is one of the hardest Bosses in game, thus I recommend using High level PVM equipment. Below I've shown a picture of a full Bandos set, Fire cape, Helmet of Neitiznot, Strength (t) Amulet and a Zamorakian Spear. I would say that this gear is basically the minimum when going to Corporeal beast, However you can switch around a few items such as use a Skill Cape instead of a Fire Cape and an Amulet of Fury instead of a Strength (t) Amulet.

Here I have a picture of what your Inventory should like like when going to Corporeal beast. I've included a Statius Warhammer, a Super Set, 4 Prayer Potions, Teleport Runes and Manta. Everyone going to Corporeal Beast should use a Inventory which looks similar to this. However if you cannot afford a Statius's Warhammer use a Bandos Godsword Instead and you may be able to get away using just 3 Prayer Potions instead of 4, depending how many Players you are doing Corporeal beast with.

NOTE: It is recommended to have a Guardian Angel while killing Corporeal beast as it is more than likely that you can die while fighting him. A Guardian Angel can be Purchased at the Edgeville Monastery from Brother Althric for $1M gp.
III. Location
Corporeal beast can be found in his cave, located at level 21 wilderness. The easiest way to get there is to change your spell book to ancient magiks at Draynor Mayor and get some Air runes, Fire runes and Law runes to enable yourself the ability to use the Dareeyak teleport ( Level 78 Spell ) and also the Paddewwa teleport ( A level 54 Edgeville teleport ). In combination, these two spells make getting to and from Corporeal Beast easiest and most efficient. I've added a few pictures below to help illustrate.

Below you can see the Location at which you arrive once using the Dareeyak teleport. From here on use your compass and head East until you arrive at a Cave Entrance.

This is how the Cave entrance should look upon arrival.

PLEASE NOTE: The Cave entrance is located inside the wilderness meaning that you are open to be killed on your way there, so only take gear which you are prepared to lose. However once inside the Cave you CANNOT be attacked by other players.
IV. Strategies
Corporeal beast is divided into two stages. In the first stage which is shown in the picture below, Corporeal Beast is only level 518 combat and can only use melee attacks. Thus it is advised to use the Protect from Melee Prayer.

Once the first stage of the Corporeal Beast has been slain, he then transforms into his second Spirit form. In the second form, Corporeal beast is now level 752 and much more difficult. He is now able to use both melee and magic attacks. Thus it is advised to use the Protect from Magic Prayer. As his Magic attack can hit much higher than his Melee attack. Also during his second form he has a Magic attack ( Cylinders of Light ) which are frequently placed on each player attempting to kill Corporeal Beast. To avoid being damaged, as soon as you see this spell, simply just move away quickly to a spot which does not have the cylinders of light on it. Below is a picture of how the Cylinders of Light look and also Corporeal Beast's Second form.

V. Drops
Below is a table showing all the the possible loots which can be obtained at Corporeal Beast. Sigil drops are 0.2% meaning generally you should get a Sigil drop roughly every 1/500 kills.

There are a total of 4 Spirit Shields which can be obtained.
Arcane Spirit Shield - Melee Shield
Divine Spirit Shield - Range Shield
Elysian Spirit Shield - Magic Shield
Spectral Spirit Shield - Hybrid Shield
To make the Spirit Shield, Just use Holy Elixir ( Which can be bought from Brother Jered at Edgeville for $1M gp) on the Spirit shield, this requires a prayer level of 70 to do. Then use any 1 of the 4 Sigils on the Blessed Spirit Shield, to craft the Spirit Shield of your choice. This requires a crafting level of 90 to do.
