  • Requirements: Protection from Dragonfire is recommended
  • Drops distribution: Lootshare

Strategy[]

The King Black Dragon is a fairly strong dragon, but as a boss he is fairly weak. As this is a mass, there will be a lot of people, so the danger is relatively low.

You should use gear for whichever combat style you prefer, ideally of tier 70 or higher.
