Blue dragon

Blue dragons are the second weakest chromatic dragons, but are still fairly powerful monsters. An anti-dragonfire shield or an anti-fire potion is essential when meleeing them, but may be skipped if ranging or maging them. They are a very popular monster to slay because the blue dragonhides and dragon bones they drop can be sold for large profits. It is interesting to note that all Blue Dragons are thought to be females, hence the examined info: A mother dragon.

Locations

 * Taverley Dungeon (3) (Recommended for its high re-spawn rate. However, it is usually crowded)
 * Ogre Enclave (6) (Best place for slayer tasks or for money)
 * Heroes' Guild (1) (Not recommended for its slow re-spawn rate)

Strengths and Weaknesses
Blue dragons, like all dragons, have very high defence. Their melee attack can hit up to 10. As with all dragons, an anti-dragon/dragonfire shield or an anti-fire potion is essential when fighting Blue dragons, as it reduces the maximum hit of their breath to about 5. Without one, you could be hit over 50 by their dragonfire.

Ranging from a safe spot is the most popular way to kill them (a crossbow or throwing knives/darts are recommend since you can use it in conjunction with an anti-dragon shield). They can also be attacked safely with melee using a Halberd (fire isn't long-ranged).
