Old School RuneScape (OSRS) Leagues 5 Raging Echoes has introduced nine Echo bosses, and none are as daunting as the Grandmaster-level Echo Sol Heredit. As the most challenging boss in Leagues 5, Sol Heredit requires strategic planning, top-tier combat skills, and the right equipment. Successfully defeating this boss rewards players with two of the most powerful Echo items:

Sunlight Spear: A Prayer-scaling Area of Effect (AOE) weapon.

Sunlit Bracers: A glove-slot item that doubles the effectiveness of healing spells.

Here’s a comprehensive guide to help you conquer Echo Sol Heredit.

Preparation for Echo Sol Heredit

Recommended Stats and Gear

Combat stats: 90+ in your chosen style.

Melee: Slash weapons are most effective, with crush weapons as a secondary option.

Ranged: Works well with Tier 6 or higher mastery.

Magic: Not recommended due to Sol’s high Magic defense.

Prayer: 43+ for Protection Prayers.

Equipment:

Weapons: Scythe of Vitur (Melee) or Twisted Bow (Ranged).

AOE Spells: Blood Barrage (if using Ancient Magicks).

Inventory:

High-quality food (e.g., sharks or better).

Boss Mechanics

Regular Sol Attacks

Echo Sol Heredit retains all mechanics from the original Sol fight, including:

AOE spear and shield attacks.

Specific equipment removal mechanics.

Flicking Protection from Melee at precise times.

Lasers

Blue crystals appear around the arena, shooting lasers.

The number of crystals increases as the fight progresses (up to four).

Dodge lasers promptly to avoid damage.

Damaging Pools

Pools of damaging energy appear quickly and remain indefinitely.

The longer the fight, the more challenging it becomes due to limited safe areas.

Healing Totems

Periodically, Sol spawns healing totems.

These totems can be destroyed in one hit using AOE spells or ranged weapons.

Efficient destruction is crucial to prevent Sol from regenerating too much health.

Strategies for Defeating Echo Sol Heredit

Standard Full Kill

Pot up, activate damage-boosting Prayers, and enter the arena.

Focus on dodging Sol’s attacks and lasers.

Destroy healing totems immediately.

Use relics like Last Stand to regain control during difficult phases.

Repeat the attack-dodge-destroy cycle until Sol is defeated.

Thunder Khopesh Cheese

A highly efficient build utilizing the Thunder Khopesh, Ancient Magicks, and the Specialist relic.

Drink combat potions and activate Piety before entering.

Use the Thunder Khopesh special attack five times.

Equip an Ancient Magicks staff and destroy the healing totems to regain energy.

Repeat the cycle of special attacks and totem destruction to finish the fight in under 40 seconds.

Dharok Bombing

For players with max melee stats and Gloves of the Damned:

Equip full Dharok’s set and use the Last Stand relic for safety.

Use Dharok’s special attack to deal massive damage.

Dodge mechanics precisely; a single mistake can result in death.

Closing Tips

Relic Selection: Ensure you have Tier 6 or higher relics for optimal performance.

Wilderness Advantage: If you’ve unlocked Wilderness, Sol can be defeated in under 40 seconds using boosted strategies.

Morytania Boosts: Similar time-efficient kills are possible with Morytania unlocked.
