Green dragon

Green dragons are the weakest of the four adult chromatic dragons and the weakest adult dragon that can breathe fire in RuneScape, with a combat level of 79. As with all adult dragons, wielding an Anti-dragon shield, Dragonfire shield or being under the effects of a Super antifire potion is a must. Found in various locations in the Wilderness as well as the Chaos Tunnels, they can breathe fire which can deal extremely high damage (500+) to players insufficiently protected. They are also the only one of the four chromatic dragons that don't have an attackable baby form; baby Green dragons are only available as level 99 Summoning pets.

Killing Green dragons for their bones and hides is one of the oldest methods of money making in RuneScape. A combined inventory of Dragon bones and Green dragonhides is worth anywhere from 80k to 120k. The 1 February 2011 updates, which removed revenants from the Wilderness and brought back player killers, sharply increased green dragonhide prices. The bones and dragonhides are commonly utilised by players training Prayer and Crafting respectively, creating the demand for these two items.



Members can kill Green dragons around the Wilderness, but PKers are a serious threat. A good strategy is to go to a large patch of rocks east of the Bone Yard, in level 19 Wilderness, and use that as a safe spot while attacking with magic or ranged. It is recommended to have at least 46 Ranged or level 41 Magic. Another method, for mid-to-high level players who wish to use melee, is to bring only three valuable items, such as an Abyssal whip, Torag's platebody and Torag's platelegs. That way the only items lost in the case of getting player-killed will be the Anti-dragon shield (which only costs about gp in the Grand Exchange), food, and the hides/bones you collected because you are not skulled. PKers don't come there that often and can usually be escaped from (such as by teleporting), so this method is also highly profitable. For free-to-play players, dragons can only be killed during the Dragon Slayer quest and in Daemonheim while training Dungeoneering. 

Note that due to the return of the Wilderness, it is far more profitable to kill Blue dragons because they are located in areas free of PKers.

Locations
Note: The location west of Dark Warriors' Fortress no longer has safespots, though all the others do. It is dangerous for lower levels to visit this area.


 * 3 Green dragons: (level 12-14 Wilderness) North of Goblin Village and west of Dark Warriors' Fortress. Note: no longer has safespots.
 * 5 Green dragons: (level 34-38 Wilderness) South-east of the Lava Maze.
 * 23 Green dragons: (level 19-24 Wilderness) East of Bone Yard . The most popular area to kill green dragons. Note: bot infested: greatly reduced chance for killing dragons.
 * Chaos Tunnels (multicombat area, also: Baby black dragons) making this area somewhat irritating for many players. There are 3 Green dragons in one cave and 4 Green dragons in the other; see the map of the Tunnels in the article for more information. Note: bot infested: greatly reduced chance for killing dragons.
 * 5 Green Dragons : Forinthry Dungeon (around level 17 and 18 Wilderness). They are just beside the Greater demons area. It can be accessed in level 31 or level 18 Wilderness, near the southwest entrance to the old Bounty Hunter volcano. Considered the safest place for Green dragon hunting. However, if you take the level 31 entrance you may have to pass through revenants and other dangerous monsters in the Dungeon to get to the spot. This spot is a multi-combat zone, and this place can be crowded at times.

Strategy
See: Green dragon/Strategies

As a general strategy it's smart to keep in mind that all the locations are situated in the Wilderness, hence it is adviced to not take more items then you need, with a max. of three more valuable items. Depending on your combat level; generally melee is suggested with the common outfit being: a Rune chainmail, Abyssal whip, Amulet of Glory (aslo quick for teles to Edgeville to bank or for emergencies), Cape of legends and Anti-dragon shield.

Trivia

 * On 5 July 2010, green dragons received a graphical update with the release of the Love Story quest.
 * There used to be four different variations of Green dragons; after the above mentioned update, however, there are only three.
 * There is a wallpaper called Return of the Wilderness that was available from 26 January 2011 that has the Green dragon featured on the right hand side of it.
 * Due to the high amount of bots at the Green dragons in the Chaos Tunnels, it is possible to attack the Green dragons with a two handed sword and hit once per kill leaving you the drop most of the time.
