Aviansie


 * This article is about a specific type of attackable monster. For information on the Aviansie race, see Aviantese.
 * For strategies on fighting the Aviansie, see Aviansie/Strategies.

The Aviansie are a race favoured by Armadyl above all. Armadyl thought they were wiped out during the God Wars and left Gielinor. Some were left frozen in the God Wars Dungeon, and they were thawed and resumed battle with the other gods and their armies. Because they fly high in the air, they can only be attacked using ranged or magic. If you attempt to attack an Aviansie with a melee weapon, you will receive the message "The Aviansie is flying too high for you to attack using melee." and will be unable to attack it, although the Aviansie will become aggressive to you if it wasn't already.

Tips
It is a good idea to use the Bones to Peaches spells on the bones dropped by the Aviansies. (Bones to Bananas is NOT advised as Bananas are a much less effective alternative to Peaches). Since players must purchase the ability to use Bones to Peaches from the Mage Training Arena, players often buy tablets instead (earning enough pizazz points to do Bones to Peaches using only runes costs a lot of money and is time consuming).

It is advisable to bring the Enhanced Excalibur here, which requires the full completion of the Seers Village Achievement Diary, as the special attack gives a Defence boost, restores life points, and only takes up one inventory space.

Also, if you are ranging from a distance, it is advised (If you are praying) to put on your protect from missiles before you attack it—they can "sense" when something is attacking before the attack hits and it will quickly fire a shot back.

Also if you come equipped with items representing each of the four gods (Bandos, Saradomin, Zamorak, Armadyl), you will not be attacked by the creatures outside the generals' chambers. However, it will not be necessary to bring an item representing Bandos since his followers are mostly in the northern part of the dungeon, and most of the Aviansies are in the southern part of the dungeon.

The most cost-effective god items to bring are a Zamorak chaps, Saradomin coif, Armadyl pendant, Ancient Mace, Holy Symbol and Unholy symbol.

The most stat-effective god items to bring are a Zamorak stole, Saradomin bracers (Culinaromancer gloves (Barrows) have more ranged attack bonus), Armadyl chestplate, and Bandos tassets.

Popular mid range god items to bring are a Zamorak god book, Saradomin bracers, Armadyl pendant and bathing in the Bandos pool in Oo'glog (After As a First Resort...)

Either 60 Strength or Agility is required to access the God Wars Dungeon where the avianses reside.

In addition, it is good to bring runes for High Alchemy in order to obtain coins from drops like rune dagger(p+) and Runite limbs which drop from time to time.

Lastly, if only hunting for drops in the God Wars Dungeon, it is recommended that the player backs off and lets other god monsters weaken the Aviansies before going in for the kill. All drops are the same as if the player was the only combatant.

Trivia



 * The weapons used by the Aviansie look similar to Morrigan's javelin and Morrigan's throwing axe.
 * Aviansie are often hunted for the common drop of 4 noted Adamantite Bars to make money.
 * Avians is Latin for "of or relating to birds".
 * Aviansie used to drop earth runes, but no longer do so.
 * Aviansie come in both genders, female Aviansie appear to have a blue head and a lower cut platebody whereas the males platebody covers the entire chest and shoulders.
 * Aviansies are classified by weakest/weaker/weak/strong/stronger/strongest and have a male and female aviansie representing each class: Female Aviansies typically have a higher Combat Level and Max Hit than the Male form who typically have more Life points of the same class
 * Although players cannot attack Avianses with normal methods of melee, other God Wars monsters as well as familiars can.
 * A player can attack an Avianse with a melee attack style on the salamanders which results in strength experience.
 * The aviansies are weak to melee attacks (being range based), although it is impossible to attack them with any melee weapon apart from that told above.
 * A prior graphical glitch fixed in a hidden update would show crossbow bolts shooting underneath and making no contact with Aviansies.
 * In God Wars Dungeon there is a ice statue of a "Frozen Warrior" who appears to be stabbing an Aviansie with a spear.
 * There used to be a bug where players positioning them and the aviansie in a certain position could safespot them. This has later been fixed.
 * Oddly enough, though all 4 God War gods are at war, Armadyl followers (Aviansies) will never attack Saradomin followers, and vice versa, however this is because the followers of Armadyl, Saradomin, and Bandos are all fighting against the followers of Zamorak.


 * Even though players cannot attack Aviansies with close-combat, melee-based monsters, such as Vampires, Pyrefiends, Icefiends and Goraks in the dungeon can, and deal reasonable damage doing so.
 * Aviansies wear Armadyl armour. Strangely, they do not drop any pieces of the armour.
