Revolution++ Strategy
It’s possible to “semi-AFK” the Dagannoth Kings by switching weapons and using revolution, even without any hybrid armour. Normally, using armour that’s off-style has an accuracy penalty i.e. if using a Melee weapon, then magic/ranged armour will lower accuracy. For DKs, a combination of T90 weapons + overloads + T80 power armour of different styles will ensure 100% accuracy on all three kings. Higher armour or lower tier weapons will affect accuracy, but adding prayers/curses will get accuracy back up to 100%.
The strategy here is to wear power armour of different types i.e. (melee helm, ranged body, magic legs), and swap weapons/prayer for each king. This requires two clicks/key binds every kill, but is otherwise auto-pilot.
