Primal equipment

Primal equipment (Tier 11) is a members only weapon and armour set found while training the Dungeoneering skill. It is the strongest melee equipment found within Daemonheim, and requires level 99 Attack, Strength and Defence for the weapons and armour respectively. It is also the strongest melee equipment in RuneScape.

This is the only Dungeoneering melee equipment that cannot be smithed, as no matching ore exists. Primal equipment can only be obtained by receiving it as a drop from the bosses within Daemonheim as the monsters can only drop up to Promethium. It is not recommended to bind the gauntlets and boots because there is only a small difference to the promethium gauntlets/boots and since you can only bind 4 items at a time (and since the set altogether is hard to obtain), the weapons and more benefiting armour (platebody, plate legs) are better off than with the gauntlets and boots. When performing the dungeoneering cape's emote you are seen to be wearing all primal armour (with the exception of a primal kiteshield) and wielding a primal longsword.

Trivia

 * The splash page design of RuneScape shows three characters, with the right being a female clothed in celestial robe set while the man in the centre is wielding primal armour. The man on the left with a bow wearing the Sagittarian armour. They are part of the Signature Heroes.
 * Tier 11 items are only dropped by bosses, and each boss only drops certain kind of equipment. Even the strongest forgotten warriors, rangers and mages only drop Tier 10 items.
 * By adding the primal platebody, primal platelegs, primal kiteshield, primal full helm, primal gauntlets, primal boots, and the primal longsword, a player would theoretically have the best melee and range defence bonuses which are: stab defence bonus = +606, slash defence bonus = +641, crush defence bonus =+407, magic defence bonus = -14, and range defence bonus = +638. However, attaining this equipment is not possible in reality because only four items can be bound at a time if the player has level 120 Dungeoneering. Since only one primal item can be attained per floor (at most) from the boss drop, a player may have a maximum of five primal items.
 * The name 'Primal' could be derived from the Latin word 'primus' meaning 'first'.
 * The Primal armor set somewhat resembles the Madness Armor set in the expansion pack for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, called Shivering Isles.
 * A warrior with Primal armour and a Primal battleaxe can be seen on the RuneFest 2011 banner:
