I. Gear Setup

II. How to get there
Option 1
Use the Portal, and go to Dungeons -> Taverley. Run North a few tiles, and use the "Jump-over" strange floor on the West. Proceed North past the Hellhounds, and Crawl in the cave to the East.


Option 2
Purchase a Ceberus Teleport Scroll, use the Portal, and go to Bosses -> Cerberus

III. Drops
Cerberus drops a few Unique drops, such as the boot crystals, and the pickaxe crystal.

IV. Mechanics & Tips/Tricks

• You'll want to sip a Super combat, turn on Protect from Magic, equip your Dragon warhammer and Dragon defender, run though the fire gate and spec Cerberus twice, then swap back to your Hasta.
   
• If Cerberus is below 400 Hit points, she'll activate her Special, by saying "Aaarrrooooooo", summoning three souls behind the skull. The souls will attack the player from West to East, which is why I have my camera shown above. You need to protect Magic on the blue soul, Melee on the red soul, and Missiles on the green soul. If you fail to protect the style in time, they will deal 30 damage to the player, so I suggest always staying 65-70% HP, and using a Spectral Spirit shield to keep your Prayer up.
   
• If Cerberus is below 200 Hit points, she'll active another Special, by saying "Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr", throwing lava on the ground which is suppose to do AOE damage, immediately switch tiles once she's around 210-200 HP to avoid the initial attack. This special is deadly when combined with the spirits, so it may take a few tries to get used to.
   
• When the souls appear at 400 Hit points, always switch to your Spectral if you have one, the passive will allow you to keep more of your prayer, when the souls attack, just remember to switch back to your defender after they're done, for more DPS.
   
• I bring a Desert Amulet 4 (Desert Diary Elite), for the quick teleport to use Elidinis Statuette, which restores your stats to full, without a cool down, and use the home teleport to repeat the kill.

Very good and detailed guide.  You should add different gear setups not only the BIS.
