Aviansie

''This Article is about a specific type of attackable monster. For information on the Aviansie race, see Aviantese.''

The Aviansie are a mostly extinct race favoured by Armadyl above all. Armadyl thought they were fully extinct 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.

Locations

 * God Wars Dungeon

Prayer Method/Requirements
This method of fighting Aviansies is for players with under 70 Range and cannot access the Eyrie

You also need either 60 Agility or 60 Strength to bypass one of the obstacles to get into the God Wars Dungeon.

Finishing the Eadgar's Ruse Quest is Highly recommended for a quick teleport up the mountain.

Prayer Equipment

 * Helmet: Saradomin/Zamorak Mitre or Initiate/Proselyte Helmet
 * Torso: Monk Robe Top or Saradomin/Zamorak Robe Top or Black Dragonhide Body
 * Leg: Black Dragonhide Chaps, Monk Robe Bottoms or Saradomin/Zamorak Robe Bottoms
 * Weapon: Rune Crossbow with Mithril bolts or Emerald bolts (e)
 * Offhand: Holy or Unholy Book
 * Neck: Armadyl Pendant (Temple of Ikov), Holy or Unholy Symbol, Saradomin/Zamorak Stole or an Amulet of Fury/Glory
 * Ring: Ring of Wealth, Ring of Life or Archers' ring
 * Boots: White Boots, Ranger Boots, or Climbing Boots
 * Cape: Ava's Accumulator (requires Animal Magnetism)

Prayer Inventory

 * 502 Fire Runes
 * Optional: Fire Staff
 * 100 Nature Runes
 * 2 law runes
 * 1 Steel Arrow (Accumulator will make a lot of these and since you don't need to pick up bones for BTP then you should keep them)
 * 12-22 Prayer Potions (4)

This will leave you with 2 extra spaces which will cater for Alchable Drops and Noted Adamant Bars

Tips:


 * If you get the Swordfish drop and don't need it leave them on the floor or trade them to another player
 * If you have already covered the Saradomin and Zamorak item buy a Guthix Stole, it is cheaper (60 Prayer needed)
 * You should never be in danger of death, so using Home Teleport is a good way to exit
 * If you are nervous about the GWD you could always take a one click teleport
 * When you start freeing up spaces as your prayer potions are used, pick up any drops, Ranarrs are always welcome
 * Only ever bring 1-2k bolts just in case the unforseeable happens and you get killed

Tanking Method/Requirements
This method of fighting Aviansies is by utilising the Barrows armours to your advantage, this method allows you to make more profit than with prayer potions, but requires a decent Defence level, costs more to get all the equipment and trips are shorter but you can make more profit in the long run.

The Higher your smithing the better, because it allows you to get discounts on repairing Barrows Armour on Armour Stands in POH's, even if you have a low smithing it's still money saved.

Tanking Equipment

 * Helmet: Torag's Helm
 * Any other Melee Barrows Helm are just as effective
 * Torso: Zamorak Dragonhide Body or a Black Dragonhide body (the Zamorak Dragonhide protects from the Gorak in Armadyl's Eyrie).
 * If you are using another Zamorak item a Saradomin D'hide Chest can be used for the main area
 * Legs: Torag's Legs
 * Any other Melee Barrows Legs/Skirt
 * Weapon: Rune Crossbow with Mithril bolts or Emerald bolts (e) should be used to cause damage.
 * Offhand: Toktz-Ket-Xil or Granite Shield for defence bonuses (both are the same)
 * Unholy Book For Range attack bonuses and protection from Zamorak Monsters if you don't have a Zamorak D'hide Body
 * Neck: Armadyl pendant (Temple of Ikov)
 * Ring: Ring of Wealth, Archers' ring, Ring of Life
 * Boots: Snakeskin Boots or Ranger Boots, for Range
 * Gloves:Barrows Gloves, Black Dragonhide Vambraces or Zamorak Vambraces.
 * If you are using another Zamorak item Saradomin Vambraces can be used for the main area
 * Cape: Ava's Accumulator


 * A Mithril grapple is also required to get into the Eyrie
 * A Saradomin item as well as a Zamorak item if you plan on fighting outside the Eyrie

Tanking Inventory

 * Mithril Grapple
 * 2 Law Runes
 * 502 Fire Runes
 * Optional: Substitute Runes for Fire Staff
 * 100 Nature Runes
 * 50+ Bones to Peaches Tabs, depending on how long you would like to stay
 * Excalibur
 * 4 Range Potions (4)
 * Optional: Substitute one Range Potion for an Ectophial or any one click teleport (For inexperienced fighters)
 * 18 Shark or monkfish

You will be left with one free space for Adamant bars or the coins from high alchemied drops, but after you teleport in another free space will be added (2 Law Runes being used up). Any Steel Arrows which spawn should be dropped as you need the spaces for Bones to Peaches.

Tips:


 * Whenever you have free space pick up bones for Bones to Peaches
 * Only ever use the Bones to Peaches Tablet if you have as many bones as you can
 * If there are spare bones on the ground you can drop something for a second, pick it up, perform the spell, eat the extra peaches and then pick your item back up
 * If you get the Swordfish drop, bury bones you have and pick them up, if you have less than 5 bones and extra peaches, eat some peaches
 * The rule is Swordfish > Peaches > Bones
 * If you get the Swordfish drop and do not need them, do not offer them to other players in the area. Just drop them. It will waste your time trading, and they're likely to pick it up if they want it anyways.


 * If you are inexperienced take a one click teleport such as an Ectophial


 * If you are fairly confident with the Eyrie you will probably not need a teleport out and may just use the home teleport.


 * If you are nearing the end of a trip, pick up any air runes and then you will be able to teleport to Varrock to sell your profits (assuming you pick up any law rune drops)


 * Since Law rune drops are fairly common take an extra law rune with you to hold an inventory space for teleporting out later.


 * Only take an amount of bolts you are willing to lose in case the unforeseeable happens and you are killed. Though don't let this worry you. You probably won't die (unless you forget pendant).


 * If you are in trouble and don't have enough bones to warrant a Bones to peaches tablet, then use your prayer for a while to survive until you get enough bones again. If no prayer, possibly kill lower leveled monsters until you have enough bones.

Because they fly high in the air, they can only be attacked using ranged or magic from players. However, all the other monsters in the God Wars Dungeon can attack the Aviansie with melee. Even summoning familiars may attack (and damage) them with melee.
