Draconic visage

From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape

A detailed image of the Draconic visage.

The Draconic visage is an extremely rare drop from black, iron, steel, and mithril dragons, as well as Skeletal Wyverns, and the King Black Dragon.

A player with level 90 Smithing is able to combine an Anti-dragon shield with the visage to create the Dragonfire shield, granting 2,000 Smithing experience. Alternatively, players may use the Assist System to forge the shield, which is highly recommended. In order to do this, the visage needs to be taken to an anvil along with an Anti-dragon shield and a hammer. Another method of smithing the Dragonfire shield is by paying Oziach, the smith of Dragon Slayer fame, the sum of 1.25 million (1,250,000) coins to join the shield's components together.

The Draconic visage is a "bonus" drop. This means that it is included in a dragon's main drop, and it is never the main drop itself, meaning it can be dropped as well as another item, such as the Dragon platelegs. As such, it has been confirmed by Jagex, that the visage is NOT affected by the Ring of wealth.[source needed]

It is unknown whether the drop rates are different for each monster.

[edit] Trivia

  • Players do not have to complete Dragon Slayer for the visage drop. It is a widespread rumour and has been proven that a pure can also obtain one.[source needed]
  • It has been widespread rumour that a player must talk to Oziach and show him an anti-dragon shield before being able to receive a draconic visage drop; however, it has since been proved that a player can obtain visage without doing this.
