Nex is one of Zaros' most powerful followers. She is imprisoned in the Ancient Prison, sealed away beneath the God Wars Dungeon. An immensely powerful entity and one of Zaros's most powerful weapons of war, Nex is a nihil from Freneskae and possesses physical traits of the icyene, demons, aviantese and vampyres.
Nex's Ancient Prison is locked behind the frozen door in the southern part of the God Wars Dungeon, and can only be opened by assembling the frozen key, whose pieces are dropped during The Frozen Door miniquest, by the generals and bodyguards of each of the warring factions in the dungeon: General Graardor, K'ril Tsutsaroth, Commander Zilyana, and Kree'arra. This in turn requires a base level of 70 Hitpoints, Ranged, Strength, and Agility in order to reach Nex, none of which can be boosted. Up to 60 players can fight Nex per encounter.
She is known for her assortment of Zarosian-affiliated drops, such as torva armour, zaryte vambraces, the ancient hilt and the nihil horn, which is used to create a zaryte crossbow.
Fight overview
Nex spawns in her chamber shortly after a player or team of players pass through the ancient barrier within the Ancient Prison. She has very high hitpoints and deals relatively high damage even through protection prayers, so fighting her in a team is effectively a requirement.
The fight consists of five distinct phases based on the Ancient Magicks, with Nex using smoke, shadow, blood, and ice magic, before entering an empowered final state. She can also use melee and a number of special attacks. In order for the fight to progress, Nex's hitpoints need to be reduced to a threshold, after which the mage who empowers her magic must be killed, which will then lead to the next phase.
Drops
In order to obtain drops from Nex, the player must deal a set amount of minimum damage. Getting a drop from Nex is considered a kill in the log. Nex drops a large lump of items upon death, which is determined by team size, and the share players receive from it is based on the player's total damage to Nex, her minions, and any reavers during the encounter. Two common drops are guaranteed after each kill.
The MVP receives a 10% bonus to common loot quantities and a 10% boost to the chance of obtaining a unique item drop.
Drop rates estimated based on 158,203 samples from the Drop Rate Project, unless otherwise cited.
100%
Big bones are only dropped for the MVP, the player who dealt the most damage to Nex.

Uniques
There is an effective 1 in 43 chance of rolling the unique drop table per kill.[1][2] It is possible to receive multiple unique drops per kill with multiple players, which is calculated based on the number of players and their individual contributions towards the kill.[3] Below lists the effective drop rates, which are for each kill, rather than for each player.

- Torva armour: 2/12 for each piece
- Nihil horn: 2/12
- Zaryte vambraces: 3/12
- Ancient hilt: 1/12"
- ↑ "Guardians of the Rift Improvements". RuneScape News. Jagex. 30 March 2022. Archived from the original. "Now that the dust has settled and meta's have been established, we'd like to revert her unique drop rates back to their original rate of 1/43 instead of the current 1/53 to better reflects the kills/hr we had intended during our internal testing."
- ↑ Jagex. Mod Arcane's Twitter account. 23 June 2022. Archived from the original on 22 July 2022. Mod Arcane: "[Could you clarify a bit on how Nex unique drops work? Wiki says it's 1/43, but is that per kill for everyone or per kill per person? Seems like it's per kill for everyone, but then how are double drops possible?] It is 1/43 divided by contribution If two players had 50% contribution then the boss would effectively have two 1/86 rolls. ...Additionally the MVP bonus is a 10% bonus to one player after that, so in reality it's a little more common than 1/43 per boss kill."

- ↑ Jagex. Mod Ash's Twitter account. 19 July 2022. Archived from the original on 15 September 2022. Mod Ash: "No, multiple people can get the roll on each kill, with their individual chance affected by their contribution. Looks like it's roughly that, with a little bonus chance if you were the MvP."
