Metal dragons

Metal dragons are a stronger version of normal dragons, whose hides are metallic; bronze, iron steel, and mithril in order of combat level. Bronze, iron and steel dragons can be found in Brimhaven Dungeon, and are fought often as they drop Dragon platelegs and Dragon plateskirts. All metal dragons, excluding bronze, are known to drop the Draconic visage.




 * Bronze Dragon
 * Iron Dragon
 * Steel Dragon
 * Mithril Dragon

Location

 * Main article: Brimhaven dungeon
 * For Mithril dragons see: Ancient Cavern

Metal dragons (except Mithril Dragons) are located in Brimhaven Dungeon. To access this, players must pay 875 coins and have a woodcutting axe in order to chop tendrils.

Tactics
Magic is considered the best way to kill metal dragons, as a combination of an anti-firebreath potion and an antifire shield will render players immune to firebreath for about 5 minutes. Players who use melee against the dragons still leave themselves vulnerable to the dragons' melee attacks, and Ranged does not work as well against the heavy metal hide of the dragons.
