This guide includes a description of the mechanics of the runebound behemoth and an example kill of the boss.
The runebound behemoth is a level 493 boss that includes drops such as the shadow sword, shadow dye, shadow necklace recipe, shadow cape recipe and more.
Full drop table:
The boss attacks with ranged and magic. Furthermore, it protects from melee, so it is recommended to use ranged against it.
The most dangerous mechanic of the boss is the "circles of death". See attached picture:
If you stand on one of the circles when they're red, you take 74 damage. But you do get a preview of the squares that the circles will appear in. This happens after the runebound behemoth says "Let's see if you're quick on your feet!" after which the circles will appear in blue.
After the last blue circles have been highlighted, the boss will say "EMBRACE THE DARKNESS!" after which the dangerous red circles will appear, in the order that has been previewed in blue.
The circles of death appear three times during the boss fight. first at ~70% hp. Second ~50% hp. Third ~20% hp.
I suggest making tile markers of the innermost squares where the circles can appear. This means that you only have to walk one tile, which makes it a lot easier. If you numerate the tiles, it's also easier to keep track of the order the circles appear in. See attached picture:
The last mechanic of the boss is its last attempt at survival. The runebound behemoth will say "There...is...no...escaping..." when it is at ~5% hp, after which it will charge up for ~2 seconds and throw a spell. The spell can be reduced to a maximum of 25 damage if you stand as far away from it as possible. So just run to the outer wall and make sure you're above 25 hp.
Example kill:
