Trivia

  • The dragon kiteshield is the ninth-strongest shield in the game, behind the Blessed Spirit Shield in overall defensive capability. It is the third-strongest kiteshield in the game, behind the chaotic kiteshield and third-age kiteshield.
  • The shield's unplanned release was first confirmed definitively in a post by Mod Ajd on Jagex's Youtube channel in the summer of 2010. However, the post emphasized that it would not be added until an ideal method of releasing it was developed.
  • The dragon kiteshield has been requested and spoken of by players since the introduction of dragon equipment. Jagex referenced this through an April Fools joke on 1 April 2008, during which Diango was said to be selling "dragon kites," a slang term often applied to dragon kiteshields. When Diango was spoken to, it was revealed that these were in fact toy kites bearing a dragon symbol.
  • The term "dragon kiteshield" has also been applied by players to heraldic kiteshields bearing a dragon crest. These are made of either steel or rune, however, rather than dragon.
  • Originally the individual images of dragon square shield right and left halves combined would have resembled a kiteshield rather than a square shield. Jagex later updated the item's images after players noticed this.
  • An anagram of dragon kiteshield, "a soldiered knight", was mentioned during the Chaos Elemental Letter 16, hinting that it would be dropped by the Queen Black Dragon, which was confirmed in the May 2012 Behind the Scenes.
  • The dragon kiteshield has no defensive animation at this time, like with the chaotic kiteshield.
