Aviansie


 * This article is about a specific type of attackable monster. For information on the Aviansie race, see Aviantese.
 * For strategies on fighting the Aviansie, see Aviansie/Strategies.

The Aviansie are a race favoured by Armadyl above all. Armadyl thought they were wiped out during the God Wars and left Gielinor. Some were left frozen in the God Wars Dungeon, and they were thawed and resumed battle with the other gods and their armies. Because they fly high in the air, they can only be attacked using ranged or magic. If you attempt to attack an Aviansie with a melee weapon, you will receive the message "The Aviansie is flying too high for you to attack using melee." and will be unable to attack it, although the Aviansie will become aggressive to you if it wasn't already.

They are a favoured target of Ranged users because all levels of Avianese drop noted Adamantite bars, which makes a steady profit, as well as level 3 Clue scrolls.

Tips
It is possible (and a good idea) to use the Bones to Bananas or Bones to Peaches spells on the bones dropped by the Aviansie, preferably bones to peaches. Since players must purchase the ability to use Bones to Peaches from the Mage Training Arena (earning enough points to do that costs a lot of money), a way to avoid that is to buy tablets instead. It is advisable to bring the Enhanced Excalibur here, which requires the full completion of the Seers Village Achievement Diary, as the special attack gives a Defence boost, restores Hitpoints, and only takes up one inventory space.

Also, if you are ranging from a distance, it is advised (If you are praying) to put on your protect from missiles before you attack it-- they can "sense" when something is attacking before the attack hits and it will quickly fire a shot back.

Also if you come equipped with items representing each of the four gods (Bandos, Saradomin, Zamorak, Armadyl), you will not be attacked by the creatures outside the generals' chambers. However, it will not be necessary to bring an item representing Bandos since his followers are mostly in the northern part of the dungeon, and most of the Aviansies being in the southern part of the dungeon.

The most cost-effective god items to bring are a Zamorak chaps, Saradomin coif, Armadyl pendant, Ancient Mace, Holy Symbol and Unholy symbol.

The most stat-effective god items to bring are a Zamorak stole, Saradomin bracers, Armadyl chestplate, and Bandos tassets.

Popular mid range god items to bring are a Zamorak god book, Saradomin bracers, Armadyl pendant and bathing in the Bandos pool in Oo'glog (After As a First Resort...)

Either 60 Strength or Agility is required to access the God Wars Dungeon where the avianses reside.

In addition, it is good to bring runes for High Alchemy in order to obtain coins from drops like rune dagger(p+) and Runite limbs which drop from time to time.

Trivia

 * The weapons used by the Aviansie look similar to Morrigan's javelin and Morrigan's throwing axe.
 * Aviansie are often hunted for the common drop of 4 noted Adamantite Bars to make money.
 * Avians is Latin for "of or relating to birds".
 * Aviansie used to drop earth runes, but no longer do so.
 * Aviansie come in both genders, female Aviansie appear to have a blue head and a lower cut platebody whereas the males platebody covers the entire chest and shoulders.
 * Although players cannot attack Avianses with normal methods of melee, there are other enemies in the God Wars dungeon that can. A player can attack an Avianse with a melee attack style on the salamanders which results in strength experience.
 * When attacking an Aviansie with a crossbow, the bolt will go noticeably under the actual Aviansie, not making visual contact with the form of the Aviansie whatsoever.
 * It is possible to melee these, if you have a salamander of any type, setting it to the melee setting, you will gain strength experience, and deal constant damage, as the aviansies are weak to melee attacks (being range based).
