Dragon (metal)
From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape
- For other uses, see Dragon.
Dragon items require level 60 Attack and/or Defence to wear or wield. While technically not an official mineable or smithable ore, Dragon is considered the next step up from Rune, and thus is included in the metals category.
Dragon items are members-only and often require completion of a quest to be usable. Dragon items are a distinctive dark red in colour (aside from dragon arrows and darts) and look different to similar items of different metals. Dragon items are generally sold at high prices in shops or dropped by high-leveled monsters. Some weapons or armour are not currently existent in the form of Dragon - for example, there are currently no Dragon pickaxes, warhammers, platebodies, short swords, claws or kiteshields, nor Crossbows.
Dragon metal was discovered thousands of years ago by the Dragonkin. They and the Necrosyrtes made the armour and it was given to, or bought by, the inhabitants of RuneScape. The Dragonkin told no one what it is made of, or how it is made, so very little is known about it. It is currently the hardest known metal in all of RuneScape, however this is questioned by many people as there has been no testing of the strength of God Armour or Barrows armour. Many attempts have been made to try and melt it down, one attempt is by Mr. Mordaut (who inadvertantly revealed that the Dragonkin were the original creators of the metal) , but none have been successful.
Many players consider full Dragon armour to be: Dragon full helm/med helm, Dragon chainbody, Dragon platelegs, Dragon boots, Dragon gauntlets and a Dragon sq shield.
