King Black Dragon

The King Black Dragon, KBD, is the eighth strongest monster in RuneScape. He has combat level of 276 with 242 hit points, as well as very high attack and defence levels. Recently, the King Black Dragon has lost popularity since the loot it drops can be acquired from easier to kill monsters. He is still fought, however, by clans or individuals looking to pass time or just for the experience of killing it.

Attacks
The King Black Dragon uses many attacks, and can use melee, magic and ranged attacks - making it a well-rounded and difficult foe. The King Black Dragon uses a magic attack similar to fire wave, which can easily damage melee players. It also uses 5 types of breath attack, all of which may cause high damage: Killing him becomes easier if the group forms a circle around him. He pauses between attacks to choose a target and he does not attack everyone at the same time. If you have enough people it is possible that he will not attack at all, he will just spin the whole time.
 * Regular dragonfire like all dragons
 * Ice breath that can freeze players to the ground
 * Poison breath that will deal 4 poison damage
 * Water-like breath attack
 * A "shock" attack which briefly stops the player from attacking

Strongest Monster
The King Black Dragon also holds the record for the longest period of time spent as the strongest monster in RuneScape. He was the strongest for nearly two years before the Kalphite Queen was introduced into the game. Since then, the TzTok-Jad has been introduced, and is almost three times the level of the King Black Dragon. Also, the Chaos Elemental has more recently deposed the King Black Dragon as the most powerful Wilderness beast. However, despite this, the King Black Dragon still lives up to his name as the most powerful dragon in the game of RuneScape.

It remains the strongest monster on RuneScape Classic, despite having less forms of attack there.
