Draconic visage



A Draconic visage is a very rare drop from Black, Iron, Steel, and Mithril dragons, as well as Skeletal Wyverns, and the King Black Dragon.

A player with a Smithing level of 90 is able to combine an Anti-dragon shield with the visage to create the Dragonfire shield, granting 2,000 Smithing experience. Alternatively, players may use the Assist system to forge the shield, which is highly recommended. In order to do this, the visage needs to be taken to an anvil along with an Anti-dragon shield and a hammer. Another method of smithing the Dragonfire shield is by paying Oziach, the smith of Dragon Slayer fame, the sum of 1.25 million (1,250,000) coins to join the shield's components together.

The Draconic visage is a "bonus" drop. This means that it is included in a dragon's main drop, and it is never the main drop itself, meaning it can be dropped as well as another item, like dragon platelegs. As such, it is believed, and has been confirmed by Jagex, that the visage is NOT affected by the Ring of wealth.

Many players also believe that in order be able to obtain the Draconic visage as a drop, one must speak to Oziach beforehand. This is by no means true, as it has not been confirmed by Jagex.

Trivia

 * The word "visage" means "face", and the word "draconic" is the adjective form of "dragon", so Draconic visage means Dragon face.
 * You do not have to complete Dragon Slayer for the visage drop. It is a widespread rumour and has been proven that a pure can also obtain one. Also, a ring of wealth is not helpful in obtaining one, as it does not affect the visage. It is still of use, however, as it still increases the chances of the other drops.
