Description: Killing Kree'arra
Please add tips to the guide rather than the article below.

Kree'arra chathead.png

Kree'arra is a large and powerful aviansie and leads Armadyl's army in the God Wars Dungeon. Despite being the only walking aviansie in the dungeon, he cannot be attacked with melee, as the player will be discouraged from doing so due to the strength of his wings. Therefore, he can only be killed with magic or ranged.

In order to reach Kree'arra, players may enter Armadyl's Eyrie at the south end of the main chamber. Players must have at least level 70 Ranged Ranged in order to enter the area, signified by a large gong that players will interact with. A total of at least 40 Armadyl killcount is required to enter Kree'arra's chamber at the end of the encampment, unless the Totem of Intimidation is active on Anachronia. He is guarded by his 3 generals: Flight Kilisa, Flockleader Geerin, and Wingman Skree.

Obtaining all unique drops will unlock the [Name], Swiftness of the Aviansie title.

Abilities[edit | edit source]

Fighting Kree'arra during the Attempt to assassinate Guthix

When Kree'arra is fought during The World Wakes he has significantly lower stats and gains some additional abilities, making the fight fairly different from when he is fought normally. In the quest fight, he can be harmed with melee attacks.

When fought as part of God Wars Dungeon Hard Mode, he gains the abilities he had during The World Wakes, and his stats are significantly increased. He also has significantly better drops, although the chances for Armadyl armour are not increased.

Whirlwinds[edit | edit source]

The main difference in these fights is that Kree'arra has summoned blue lightning vortices, which deal magic damage, and yellow whirlwinds, which deal ranged damage. These roam around the room, and touching one of these whirlwinds deals over 2,000 rapid damage for as long as they are stood on.

Storms, align to me![edit | edit source]

Occasionally, Kree'arra will walk towards the centre of the room, shouting "Storms align to me!", and recalls all of the whirlwinds in the room, causing them to head towards him. He becomes unattackable during this state, and all incoming attacks are reduced to 0 damage as he begins this attack. Once all of the whirlwinds have reached him, he shouts "Feel Armadyl's power!" and releases the whirlwinds, causing them to shoot out of him in various different directions towards the edges of the room.

History[edit | edit source]

The godsword[edit | edit source]

During the God Wars, Zamorak's power had expanded greatly and was seen as a threat by the other gods. Armadyl, Bandos and Saradomin agreed to an uneasy truce to defeat Zamorak first. They created the godsword, a weapon that is said to be capable of killing a god.

As a flock of aviansie carrying the sword made its way, they were ambushed by Zamorakian forces. They hid inside the temple, prompting the three gods to send reinforcements; Bandos sent General Graardor, Saradomin sent Commander Zilyana, and Armadyl sent Kree'arra. Graardor eventually betrayed the group, leaving him and Zilyana to fight the two armies off.

The situation deteriorated even further, and soon the fight for the godsword became a battle royale. Kree'arra was able to negotiate a truce with Zilyana, but both knew that it was only a matter of time before they betrayed each other. Zilyana, who anticipated an incoming betrayal, managed to get Kree'arra and his soldiers to wear a pendant bearing the icon of their god, which they wore. Kree'arra was unsure if he should attack Zilyana's encampment as it would leave him open to the north by Graardor. Zilyana, learning of his plans from an enchanted amulet, convinced him to do so. In a disastrous assault, an unknown amount of aviansie were killed and they lost a powerful crossbow in the process. Sometime after this assault, he appeared to learn of the true nature of the amulets and began fighting Zilyana's forces on even terms.

The magus Aeternam cast a powerful freezing spell on the temple, imprisoning the combatants within for thousands of years, effectively ending the war. Kree'arra was amongst those left imprisoned. Very shortly after this occurred, the god Guthix established the Edicts of Guthix, preventing the direct involvement of any deity in Gielinor. The departure of the world's Gods and the subsequent end of the God Wars meant that the cavern was forgotten, and Kree'arra would remain frozen in time with its warring armies for more than 2,000 years to come.

During the Fifth Age investigations by both the dwarven explorer Nestor Peregrine and the Asgarnian Temple Knights nearly resulted in the cave's (and Kree'arra's) rediscovery. In 169, tectonic movement in the neighbouring Wilderness caused large portions of the cave to defrost, eventually leading to the release of most of the cavern's population. Unaware that the God Wars have ended, Kree'arra and the rest of the battle's leaders resumed the battle for the godsword once again, seemingly unaware that centuries have passed since the end of the wars.

Finding Guthix[edit | edit source]

The following takes place during The World Wakes.

Kree'arra eventually learnt that Guthix's hiding place was discovered and arrived with Zilyana, where he commented that someone had beaten them to Guthix's resting place. After K'ril barged through the door, Zilyana chased after him, ordering Kree'arra to deal with the human (who unknowingly to all of them, had discovered the place first). Although he did not want to kill Guthix, he ultimately agreed with Zilyana, stating that it was the only way to bring Armadyl back.

Kree'arra pleaded with the adventurer to leave, stating that they could not possibly understand the gravity of the situation they were in. The adventurer refused, forcing Kree'arra to fight them. Despite his best efforts, he was defeated, and left the chambers in shame for failing Armadyl and his race.

Regardless, Guthix was assassinated by the Mahjarrat Sliske, and thus, Armadyl returned to Gielinor, giving Kree'arra pride and purpose again.

Missing, Presumed Death[edit | edit source]

The following takes place during Missing, Presumed Death.

With Armadyl's return, Kree'arra spent his time planning with his god for the future. He was too busy reassembling Armadyl's armies, so he sent his bodyguards Flockleader Geerin and Flight Kilisa to the Empyrean Citadel to accompany Armadyl.

Sliske's Endgame[edit | edit source]

The following takes place during Sliske's Endgame.

Kree'arra accompanied Armadyl along with Flight Kilisa, Flockleader Geerin and Taka'ara.

Elder God Wars[edit | edit source]

The following takes place during Nodon Front.

Kree'arra, learning of the threat of the Elder Gods, chose to assist Armadyl despite the god's insistence that everyone enjoy their lives in peace. Armadyl took him along to Senntisten, where Kree'arra could be seen fighting the Nodon off at the Nodon Front. He noted that despite being underground, the cavern was lit in bright green colors, almost like that of a Bandosian festival. Though this warranted his attention, he elected to investigate the matter further if and when the alliance managed to fight the Elder Gods' forces off.

The following takes place during TzekHaar Front.

After the TzekHaar burst from the fountain north of the cathedral, Kree'arra turned around to help the other defenders there fight the TzekHaar.

  • Prior to the God Wars Graphical update, Kree'arra was flying instead of walking.

    • A 10,000 life points boost, taking his health from 65,000 to 75,000 life points.
    • Kree'arra's bodyguards health increased from 5,475 to 10,000 life points.
  • Kree'arra is the only one of the four original generals who is capable of attacking with all three combat styles.

  • As of 1 February 2018, the highest kill count for this boss was 120,450 kills for normal mode and 3,500 for hard mode. At this time, this was the record for the most-killed boss in Gielinor.[3]
    • This had increased to 129,010 in normal mode by 13 December 2018. The hard mode record has remained unchanged.[4]
  • Though Kree'arra cannot be attacked with melee in his normal and hard mode encounters, his melee affinity increases in hard mode.
