Green dragon


 * For advice on effectively killing Green Dragons, or for help on what to bring/wear, visit the Green Dragon/Strategies guide to help you.

Green dragons are the weakest of the four adult chromatic dragons and the weakest adult dragon which can breathe fire in RuneScape, with a combat level of 79. Found in various locations in the Wilderness as well as the Chaos Tunnels, they can breathe fire which will cause extremely high damage (50+) to players who are not wielding an anti-dragon shield or under the effects of an anti-fire potion. They are also the only one of the four chromatic dragons not to have a baby form that is attackable. Baby green dragons are only available as Summoning pets.

Green dragons are a very popular and profitable monster to kill, especially after the 10 December updates in 2007, where the implementation of revenants and overall increased danger level of the Wilderness caused prices to steeply rise. The Dragon bones and Green dragonhides are commonly utilised by players to train Prayer and Crafting, furthermore increasing demand of these two items. Due to the danger dragon slaying poses, there is not always a steady supply of Dragon bones and Green dragonhide coming into the Grand Exchange, which keeps prices rising. Only players skilled in combat are able to make Dragon Slaying profitable. Dragon Slayers generally make about 60,000 coins per backpack, minus a few thousand coins for expenses, such as food and a games necklace. Dragon Slaying has made many players rich, as most level 60s and up can get over 500,000 coins. This is why this "profession" of RuneScape is very popular, despite the constant danger of a Revenant Attack. The biggest danger to Dragon Slayers is the level 105 Revenant Ork, who routinely causes mass chaos in within the Dragon Slaying area by attacking players. This causes a total evacuation of the area, except for players who cannot be attacked. Occasionally, the Dragon Slayers can continue if high enough level takes on the Ork, and disposes of it. Lower leveled players are at risk for lower-leveled Revenants, and must get away if a smaller revenant comes. Clan Wars is generally the "Evacuation Point" for a "Revenant Attack", and players huddle under the shelter of it from patrolling Revenants.

Non members do not have access to seeing or fighting dragons, except in the final battle with Elvarg, featured in the Dragon Slayer quest.

NOTE- It is recommended players do NOT carry any two-handed weapons with them when fighting Green Dragons. Clicking on the weapon removes one's anti-dragon shield, and if the player does not realize this in time, the Dragon can kill the players with fire breath. If you are using any two handed weapon, though it is not recommended, players MUST use an anti-fire potion. This is an alternative to an anti-dragon shield, as it can be depleted and run out. Rangers are encouraged to use crossbows.
