'''Har-Aken''', ''lit. "Holy/Sacred Kraken"'', is the final boss of the [[Fight Kiln]] combat minigame, encountered on wave 37 of the minigame.

Har-Aken attacks with his numerous tentacles, and can only be defeated by killing his head. The tentacles come in two types; both may attack with melee, but at a distance they will attack with either [[Ranged]] or [[Magic]], hitting up to 1094. They are level 800 and have 7000 [[life points]] each. The head itself will not attack and will surface without needing to damage any tentacles.
   
 
Har-Aken's head never appears on the north side of the platform. It randomly surfaces at the east, south, or western sides of the arena for 20 seconds before going back under for another 50 seconds. Kill as many tentacles as possible while Har-Aken's head is submerged.
==Tentacles==
 
Har-Aken's tentacles come in two types; both may attack with melee but at a distance will attack with either [[Ranged]] or [[Magic]], hitting between 0-260. They are level 154 and have 3800 [[life points]] each. The head itself will not attack and will surface without needing to damage any tentacles.
 
   
  +
The use of a wand and shield abilities is discouraged while attacking Har-Aken as this unnecessarily prolongs the fight.
Using a [[crystal (constitution)]] is recommended, as it will boost your lifepoints to roughly 22,000 (At level 99) and constantly heal you until it's effects end, making the fight much easier.

Har'Aken only attacks with his numerous tentacles, and can only be defeated by attacking his head.
 
While his head never appears on the north side, it will rise up randomly at any other side for 27 seconds before going back under for another 72 seconds. Kill off as many tentacles as you can while Har-Aken's head is submerged, and unload as many abilities as you can when it's back up.
 
   
  +
The fastest way of dispatching the boss is to activate a [[Crystal (magic)|magic crystal]], cast [[Vulnerability]] on the head as soon as it becomes attackable, and use [[Onslaught]] until the player's health becomes too low or the head submerges. [[Sunshine]] or [[Metamorphosis]] should be used the second time the head surfaces, and if Har-Aken is still alive at this point, Onslaught or threshold abilities can be used to kill the head when it surfaces for a third time.
The use of a wand and shield is a good combat choice, as it will provide increased armour and lifepoints as well as magic damage. This is one of the safest methods when combined with a constitution crystal. However, the fight may take longer, although making it much safer.
 
   
  +
If using a combat style other than magic, use [[Berserk]] or [[Death's Swiftness]] in place of Sunshine as well as their respective stat boosting crystals. Before using Berserk, however, the player should make certain that there is a low amount of tentacles within attacking range to avoid taking heavy damage.
The fastest way of dispatching the head is to use a [[crystal (magic)]] and a high level magic staff, or a wand and orb combination, along with the highest level spell available to you. If using the evolution of combat, [[sunshine]] or [[metamorphosis]] should be used whenever the head pops up to dispatch of it quickly. This should only be attempted by players with strong confidence and experience in killing this boss, or players with an average of level 80+ gear in all slots and a high level weapon.
 
   
  +
A [[Pack Yak]] can be used for carrying more supplies if the player is inexperienced. For optimal kill speeds, a [[Steel titan]] should be used once the player becomes comfortable with using less food.
If using a combat style other than magic, the best gear that can be worn should be used. It is suggested that damage increasing abilities such as [[berserk]] (melee) or [[death's swiftness]] (ranged) be used whenever the head pops up in order to do high amounts of damage to it. Before using berserk however, the player should make certain that there is a low amount of tentacles within attacking range in order to avoid heavy amounts of damage. The fight takes slightly longer if using a style other than magic due to the damage reduction so the player should be well prepared with a decent amount of food left for wave 37.
 
   
  +
There are various monsters weak to melee and ranged in the previous waves, so it is highly recommended to bring all three combat styles to clear the waves faster before facing Har-Aken with the style of the player's choice.
A [[Pack Yak]] is recommended for having as many supplies possible by the time wave 37 is reached. A [[Unicorn Stallion]] pouch and healing aura scrolls can be useful to have after your [[beast of burden]] is emptied, since it is likely to be more valuable than two extra pieces of food (depending on how early you summon it and how many scrolls you use). High prayer is helpful for protection prayers. [[Protect from Magic|Protect]]/[[Deflect Magic|deflect]] range is recommended.

Although magic is one of the best combat styles to use to defeat Har-Aken, there are many monsters weak only to specific styles of combat, so it is highly recommended to bring all combat styles with you to dispatch the various creatures encountered in each wave before fighting Har-Aken.

[FAQ] • [doc]

Har-Aken, lit. "Holy Kraken", is the final boss of the Fight Kiln combat minigame, encountered on wave 37 of the minigame. It was created by the elder god Ful to aid in constructing planets in the multiverse. He attacks with his tentacles surrounding the combat platform, with his head submerged in the lava and occasionally reappearing. His tentacles constantly respawn after defeat, and killing the head is required in order to defeat Har-Aken.

Defeating Har-Aken and completing the Fight Kiln rewards players with a TokHaar-Kal variant (depending on the player's most used combat style in the kiln), a prestigious cape only obtainable through completion of this minigame, a symbol to all players that they have defeated this boss and all difficult encounters before it. The alternative reward available to players is an uncut onyx, making this a very profitable minigame depending on the player's ability to defeat Har-Aken. There is also a 1/200 chance, with a threshold of 40, that you will be handed a volcanic shard if there is at least one free inventory spot.

Obtaining all unique drops will unlock the title, Kal-Haar-Xil [Name].

Strategy

Har-Aken Attacks

Har-Aken attacking the player with its Magic Tentacles.

Har-Aken attacks with his numerous tentacles, and can only be defeated by killing his head. The tentacles come in two types; both may attack with melee, but at a distance they will attack with either Ranged or Magic, hitting up to 1094. They are level 800 and have 7000 life points each. The head itself will not attack and will surface without needing to damage any tentacles.

Har-Aken's head never appears on the north side of the platform. It randomly surfaces at the east, south, or western sides of the arena for 20 seconds before going back under for another 50 seconds. Kill as many tentacles as possible while Har-Aken's head is submerged.

The use of a wand and shield abilities is discouraged while attacking Har-Aken as this unnecessarily prolongs the fight.

The fastest way of dispatching the boss is to activate a magic crystal, cast Vulnerability on the head as soon as it becomes attackable, and use Onslaught until the player's health becomes too low or the head submerges. Sunshine or Metamorphosis should be used the second time the head surfaces, and if Har-Aken is still alive at this point, Onslaught or threshold abilities can be used to kill the head when it surfaces for a third time.

If using a combat style other than magic, use Berserk or Death's Swiftness in place of Sunshine as well as their respective stat boosting crystals. Before using Berserk, however, the player should make certain that there is a low amount of tentacles within attacking range to avoid taking heavy damage.

A Pack Yak can be used for carrying more supplies if the player is inexperienced. For optimal kill speeds, a Steel titan should be used once the player becomes comfortable with using less food.

There are various monsters weak to melee and ranged in the previous waves, so it is highly recommended to bring all three combat styles to clear the waves faster before facing Har-Aken with the style of the player's choice.
