Red dragon

Red Dragons are powerful monsters, a dragonfire shield or an anti-fire potion is essential when fighting them. It is an underrated monster as the red dragonhides and dragon bones are worth large amounts and the Red Dragon is a great choice for higher level rangers.

Locations

 * Brimhaven Dungeon
 * Red Dragon isle in fairly deep Wilderness

Strengths and weaknesses
Red Dragons, like all dragons have very high defence. They seem to be weak against fire spells, however. As with all dragons, a dragonfire shield or an anti-fire potion is essential when fighting them. Without one, you can be hit extremely hard by dragonfire.

The widlerness location is extremely dangerous as players in that area are a prime target for PK-ers.

The Brimhaven dungeon location is a safer place to combat Red Dragons. There are a few safe spots in the South West corner of the Red Dragon area of the dungeon. The biggest issue is the interrupts from Wild dogs. After some time monsters stop being aggressive, so longer sessions at the Dragons have fewer of such interruptions and make it safer to collect the drops. If you are ranging bring some food for the initial aggressive period and an emergengy teleport.
