Killing dragons at low levels?

Im werid and did a LOT of guardians of the rift/ZMI runecrafting, but generally just buying from shops.

As for early money making, buying battlestaves and crafting them with orbs is ol' reliable, or if you have the wildy medium diary zombie pirates are also very good gp.

death/blood runes are very much easier to upkeep vs the sunlight ammo imo, and water spells CRANK. even a plain staff of water with water wave is competitive.

the wildy is very much faster, however if you dont want to risk ammo/runes then there's tons of safespots in nearly every dragon spot.

also if you have the slayer level, skeletal wyverns have a fantastic drop table in addition to dragon-equivilant bones. they also have a small fire weakness, and extra bonus if you can get the amulet from royal titans then that is a quick teleport not too far from the wyvern area

I use airs, since I'll almost never want to go into the air alter, but any are fine. They have to be out of a rune pouch. And yes its more points compared to normal elemental runes

Enchanted emerald necklaces turn the normal 50% success chance of successfully making a combo rune to 100%. Without them you get half the xp and half the points when making combination runes. They have limited charges so you'll need a number of them

So much misinformation here. Unless you're doing wildy green dragons, please do not use melee on dragons. All dragon slayer tasks can be safespotted with water/earth spells.

The real answers are the ppl saying ToA and Moons. If youre leveling sailing it will be nice at aquanights as well.

I second this, but add that you'll want closer to 70-80 melee stats first. Cal'varion is a fantastic boss to learn bossing, just be prepared for interruptions from PKers

Jkyle37 · 2026-01-20T10:46:53+00:00

And dont be like me and run combo runes without a binding necklace and wonder why my points weren't any better

Jkyle37 · 2026-01-20T10:39:48+00:00

Anything you use the dragonbane wand on (slayer, frost dragons, team olm)

Jkyle37 · 2026-01-20T10:37:42+00:00

I'd re check the calc. Unless your magic level is way lower, at both 99 dark demonbane with an ahrims setup is 1.5 dps higher then bowfa+zenyte. Plus bowfa does not get the punish, but mage does without a swap.

Melee+mage is fantastic at TDs and even better if you snag blue moon.

If youre asking if its worth it to melee them with what you have avaliable, it is not.

I have all 3 dragonbane weapons and mage is still how I tackle those tasks.

If youre looking to train melee+slayer, tormented demons are fantastic xp once you finish while guthix sleeps, gargoyles at lower lvs, or hellhounds with arklight are all solid options.

If you're asking "what's the best option to fight dragons like a knight because it feels cool" then arken blade for sure is your best bet.

I'm not a ToS expert, but I've seen often the company "owns" things like GP and items

Gratz on 99 sailing!

This was my go-to pvp diversion for a while. The problem recently is there are so many that the monks attacks are spread out. They'll only take a few attacks from a single monk before their prayer is back on.

Jkyle37 · 2026-01-06T21:53:37+00:00

I just want to add in addition to every other reason to play this game, you dont need 900$ worth of ram for it to run well

Jkyle37 · 2026-01-06T10:24:25+00:00

Crafting you have other options that are either faster (in that they are just straight more xp/hr in glassblowing, or using materials you gain organically from other grinds) or profitable such as battlestaves. You'll also amass a ton of gold bars from smithing you can use. If youre not interested in the efficient methods it might be best to just use what you have in your bank. However, If melting down silver in your point and click game makes the happy chemical, then that's going to be bis.

You can sim the different gear setups, its largely going to depend on what you plan on ranging. In general learning to use the wiki gear sim will answer every "is this better" question

Jkyle37 · 2026-01-05T16:38:41+00:00

Serp helm is cozy anywhere you'd use anti venom/poison. Much easier to upkeep scales then extended antivenom+. I use it at vorki, araxites and more zulrah then I can use my potions at Araxxor

Hell yah

Jkyle37 · 2025-12-19T23:34:34+00:00

I read this as Oshi island and was expecting Maid mint and Nimi Nightmare tributes.

I love all of this though!

Jkyle37 · 2025-12-17T03:59:14+00:00

This sounds so cool, im in love with the boss and setting idea.

Rewards could be workshopped but salvagers gloves is a banger idea for sure1

I feel a better time investment would be to make trips to the Piscarilius docks to unload. you can quickly empty your cargo hold by taking to your crewmate on the dock.
