Dragonhide armour is medium to high-levelled ranged armour providing strong ranged bonuses and magic defence bonuses. However, it is commonly worn for other situations where high magic defence is required, including elemental slayer monsters and PKing. It is made from the hide of dragons through the Crafting skill.

Dragonhide armour comes in different colours and strengths depending on the hide it was made from, with different colours offering different bonuses. Each colour of dragonhide armour has vambraces, a body, and chaps. The colours of dragonhide, in order of defensive strength, are:

• - Green dragonhide armour
• - Blue dragonhide armour
• - Red dragonhide armour
• - Black dragonhide armour
• - Royal dragonhide armour (Made from the hide of the Queen Black Dragon)
• - Third age ranger armour (Obtained from Treasure trails)

There are also god-blessed cosmetic armours that are trimmed in their god's colour, with equivalent stats to black dragonhide. They are all obtained from Treasure trails, and may protect against relevant followers in the God Wars Dungeon.
