OSRS God Wars Dungeon Guide: Requirements, Kill Count & Boss Progression
GWD hub: kill count, entry requirements, and which God Wars boss to learn first.
Overview: The God Wars Bosses
God Wars Dungeon holds 5 bosses across the four faction chambers plus the endgame wing. Each chamber needs kill count from that faction's followers before the door opens, which is the part that catches people out — the requirement column below is the boss gate, not the kill count.
Difficulty here spans 3 to 5, so this is not one grind but several with very different demands.
| Boss | Type | Difficulty | Solo or team | Requirement | Notable reward |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| General Graardor | GWD general (Bandos) | 3 / 5 | Solo or team | 40 kill count + Troll Stronghold / Death Plateau route | Bandos chestplate and tassets, bandos hilt |
| K'ril Tsutsaroth | GWD general (Zamorak) | 3 / 5 | Solo or team | 70 Hitpoints + 40 kill count | Zamorakian spear, staff of the dead, zamorak hilt |
| Commander Zilyana | GWD general (Saradomin) | 4 / 5 | Solo or team | 70 Agility + 40 kill count | Armadyl crossbow, saradomin sword and hilt |
| Kree'arra | GWD general (Armadyl) | 4 / 5 | Solo or team | 70 Ranged + 40 kill count | Armadyl armour, armadyl hilt |
| Nex | Ancient Prison boss | 5 / 5 | Team | Frozen key (four GWD shards) | Torva armour, zaryte crossbow, ancient hilt |

The armour each faction drops decides which one is worth your kill count. If you want a specific piece, go to the boss that drops it rather than the easiest one.
What Each God Wars Boss Tests
The God Wars bosses do not test the same thing, which is why gear that carries you through one can leave you stuck on another. Each fight's defining demand:
| Fight | Difficulty | What it tests |
|---|---|---|
| General Graardor | 3 / 5 | Solo Bandos methods |
| K'ril Tsutsaroth | 3 / 5 | Solo Zamorak prayer management |
| Commander Zilyana | 4 / 5 | Kiting paths |
| Kree'arra | 4 / 5 | Chinchompa methods |
