Dragon arrow

Dragon arrows are the strongest type of arrow. They can only be used with the Dark bow. Dragon arrows were released on 11 June 2007 along with the Impetuous Impulses activity. The only types of implings that carry the Dragon arrow tips are the Dragon impling and Kingly Impling, which are both rare and hard to catch, requiring at least Hunter levels 83 and 91 respectively. Fletching Dragon arrows requires level 90 Fletching. Despite their strength, the high cost of dragon arrows makes them unpopular for most things besides PVP or high levelled monsters.

Many players thought that these arrowtips could be acquired by killing a Dragon, because of the examine option. Furthermore, these and dragon darts are not red in colour and are not precisely dragon items.

When the Dark bow's special attack is fired using dragon arrows, a maximum of 50% more damage can be inflicted with a minimum of 80 life points per arrow. The maximum hit with this special attack, extreme ranging potion, and full void robes is 560-560 life points, which comes to a total of 1120 life points, which is 130 above the normal life point max of 990.

If a player is using Dragon arrows in a Safe spot, it is recommended that the player uses the Telekinetic Grab spell to retrieve his/her arrows, as the cost of losing a Dragon arrow outweighs the cost of casting the spell.

Dragon arrows are usually only used in PvP combat situations.

''As with all dragon equipment, the Dragon arrow cannot be made from raw materials using the Smithing skill. The dragon platebody and the dragon sq shield can be smithed from their component parts.''

Trivia

 * According to the in-game Ranged skill guide, Dragon arrows can be used with the Guthix, Saradomin and Zamorak bows. (Elite clue scroll rewards). However, Dragon arrows CANNOT be used with these bows. This mistake is likely because the Guthix, Saradomin and Zamorak arrows have the same maximum Ranged Strength bonus as Dragon arrows.
 * When viewing a single dragon arrow in your inventory or bank, it will look as if it were broken up.

Poisoned versions
The high and low alchemy values for the poisoned versions are the same as for the unpoisoned version (480 coins for high alchemy; 320 coins for low alchemy).
