Aviansie

The Aviantese 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' 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 spell 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). There are a few Goblins just east of the Armadyl chamber for extra bones if needed. If not, the Bonecrusher is of good use here.

It is advisable to bring the Enhanced Excalibur here, which requires the completion of the hard Seers' Village Tasks, as the special attack gives a +15% Defence boost, as well as restoring 200 lifepoints, or 400 with the elite tasks completed.

If you are ranging from a distance and praying against Aviansie's attacks, it is advised to turn on 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, for players who don't have high Defence and/or Ranged, it's a good idea to attack the lower level Aviansie (69-83), as the higher level ones hit more. Remember that all Aviansie have the same drops, so you won't be put at a disadvantage.

If equipped with items representing each of the four gods (Bandos, Saradomin, Zamorak, Armadyl), a player will not be attacked by the creatures outside the generals' chambers. However, it may 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 Aviansie 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 Ring of devotion.

The most stat-effective god items to bring are a Zamorak stole, Saradomin vambraces, 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 vambraces, Armadyl pendant and bathing in the Bandos pool in Oo'glog after completing As a First Resort...

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

It is also a good idea to bring Ranging potions, as this speeds up kill rates considerably in the highly-competitive area that houses Aviansies.

For people wishing to train Strength, one can use a black salamander and use the melee option. This allows for Strength training as the flame reaches the Aviansie. This is very effective because, being a range-based monster, they are weak to melee.

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 Aviansie before going in for the kill. All drops are the same as if the player was the only combatant. Also notice, that only Zamorak monsters attack Aviansies. Therefore, popular spot to kill Aviansies is at the west side, where many Zamorak creatures and Aviansies reside battling.
