Will hard mode need a group or is it too early to speak on this?
It won't. For both, we recommend Solo.

Can you guys share the different artworks seen in the video? I love them so much!
We'll look into doing this!
I prefer written announcements since they're much easier to understand for me. Considering how popular the TL;DWs are, I think a lot of other people do too.
We have something coming on Thursday that covers this plus added detail. Let us know what you think of it when it's out, would love your thoughts (including on timing vs the video!)
What are the player count capped at for both modes in the kerapac fight?
3 for both.
Is 1-3 ppl also for hard mode or is that solo only
1-3 for both!
They've said before that the main four bosses will be massable, with a higher tier solo boss before. Not sure if anythings changed since then though
Kerapac isn't massable just to confirm.
Does that include hard mode as well?
Yes.
I've seen the trailer a few times now and I'm 99% sure there'll be 2 new slayer creatures: magic Nodon (yellow wings and head, with staff) and melee Nodon (black wings and red body, with sword).
Edit: Gladly, I was wrong!
There's more than two variants.. 🙂
Regarding the difficulty of the 'normal' Kerapac fight... how would it be classified? Inbetween what bosses would it be placed?
I still recall that Raksha was 'supposed' to be around Arraxi/Telos regarding difficulty, but at launch this really didn't seem to be the general consensus.
(Also.. will Kerapac have 'one-hit-ko' mechanics used to artificially increase difficulty, or have you moved away from mechanics like that?)
Kerapac is a step up in difficulty from any of the 4 GWD2 Generals.
That's about as far as we want to go in terms of defining the difficulty this time out though.
As you mentioned with Raksha, us saying that set expectations too high or too low depending on who you talked to. We want to make sure to avoid that this time.
Awesome looking trailer! Super hyped.
Not that it matters for most players, but will the t95 staff be dyeable?
Oh yes. And personally I think they look SO GOOD.
- How many players can take on Kerapac?
- Is killcount required to fight Kerapac?
1-3 for Kerapac, though solo is recommended.
There are no killcount requirements to access the boss. We'll talk about this more on Monday's launch stream, but it's a mechanic the team decided not to bring to this GWD for a variety of reasons.
Currently hyped for the update; this is more like it.
From a mechanics point of view, I just want to know if normal/hard mode Kerepac will be feasibly soloable.
From a lore point of view, I'd like to know how the dragonkin have gone from "Dragonkin are so dangerous that even the gods fear their power" to "level 92 Slayer". Interesting that this 'essence' type drop upgrades the new ring over time... I wonder if
1: It will be a permanent buff or if you will need to keep feeding it the fragments
2: Other items will be needed if the upgrade is permanent (e.g. an alchemical onyx for the inevitable upgrade to t4 luck).
Kerapac can be fought by 1-3 players, but we recommend solo.
That was great, really missed these types of videos! And getting the literal Staff of Armadyl is incredible.
Glad you enjoyed it! We are looking at potentially making this something we do more often if the feedback is good.
Streams are awesome, but they don't always do the best at presenting the really exciting stuff in an update. Ideally we want to find a better balance between the two (rather than one or the other).
As a PSA, we'll have a few more specific details on some of the rewards discussed in this with our Thursday blog. More to come!
Look for more details on this in the Thursday blog too!
I was expecting something like the old Behind the Scenes videos. Sad.
We'll have a Developer Diary on Tuesday that's very much in the spirit of that - a blend of gameplay and insight into the content itself.
The Nodon Front opens on July 26th!
We've got plenty of details to share next week ahead of the launch, including a Developer Diary where we'll drop gameplay footage and more on July 20th. Find out everything that's on the horizon here: https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/elder-god-wars-dungeon-the-nodon-front
