Talk:Dragon Slayer

I noticed a disagreement about what Dragon Slayer's difficulty should be. We may as well have a vote here. That just gave me an idea....Ok, have the vote first: What is the difficulty of Dragon Slayer? 1 2 3 4 5

My idea is that on each quest page instead of having the difficulty as a set number, we have a poll. That way we'd show what overall opinion shows on the quests's difficulty - which, after all, is nothing more than opinion. Thoughts to that? JalYt-Xil-Vimescarrot 09:20, 28 January 2007 (UTC)


 * It's a good idea, but sadly some people don't take polls seriously. On the poll above, people have rated the hardest free-to-play quest, a 1. People would just rate it 1 because they want to be funny. It's a good idea, but people would abuse it. [[Image:Abyssal Whip.gif]] Frizkie [[Image:Blue party hat.PNG]] 01:52, 27 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Perhaps we could have a redesigned poll system, at least for the difficulty polls. Maybe votes from users who are good contributors could count for more than votes from new users. Its not a perfect solution and it could still be abused, but it might help.

Hey...instead of just taking 3 pieces of equipment and the anti-dragon shield, why not take along a cheap helm (like iron) that you can afford to lose? It's extra protection, and if you die, you still keep your weapon, body, and legs, and the helm can be easily replaced.

 * I did the quest. It's a 4, 3 is too easy. 00:17, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

it deserves a 1 or a 2. I beat it without dying at level 46.

For members, this quest's difficulty certainly isn't 4! For them it's 3 the most. --Flajuram 14:12, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Just Wondering
What is your combat level were you when you started Dragon Slayer? 20 and below 21-30 31-40 41-50 51+ I'm level 26 and I started it today.

HELP!
Ok, I have autoretaliate on. But, my character doesn't retailiate when Elvarg attacks him! Also, when I try and eat my food, nothing happens! I know it's not lag. Da bomba3 talk2me |undefinedSandy |undefined 02:45, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Help with quest please.
So I'm level 50 and I'm doing it, but my smithing level is 1. Do I need 34 smithing like this article says, or can I buy my way past that? Frizkie 01:38, 27 June 2008 (UTC)


 * In reality, no smithing is required. It is a good idea though since then at level 30 you can start smithing steel bars for money. I would recommend that you do The Knight's Sword so as to get up your smithing to 29, and then from there raise it up. What you need the 30 smithing for is to be able to make steel nails, which I would think would be hard to find on a non-member server. Or you could always get a friend to assist you in making them.

Members can buy steel nails from the lumberyard northeast of Varrock. Teh kevlar 16:05, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

== Is it is possible ,that i kill a a lesser demon (lvl 82 ) and elvarg( lvl 83 ) being lvl 51? Is mithril armour good as i'm a bit poor.
 * Yes, the quest has been completed at as low a level as level 12, however, if you dont know what you are doing, you are likeley to die 08:14, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

I have done the maze part just now and noticed that there are 4 doors on the east wall. The correct door is the one 2nd from the north (2nd from the left from your player's point of view). I edited the main guide to make this clear.

Old times in the quest...
Hey dudes, someone remeber? if i'm not wrong, long time ago, we need to pay 50k instead 10k fot the Goblin in the prision. Someone remember this? Well, i've done this quest lotta of times for my friends... Thats an interesting fact for the Trivia section... gratz for da great article... \/¬¬

does any one know if u still cut off the dragons head even if u have no cutting tools in your invetory? if so add that to trivia

How long ago? I remember doing this around 2004, and it was 10k still.

Dragon's Head
I don't remember cutting it off when I did it...
 * It's new.

Wall
Everyone used to say that you had to go through the wall before you or after you killed Elvarg or you would not be able to get back to Crandor afterwards. It is not in the guide. Is it a false rumor or has it been fixed?

Hero or Final Hit?
To receive Elvarg's head (and complete the quest), do you need to be the hero (deal the most damage to her), or just get the final hit? The article on Elvarg says that getting the final hit would suffice, but several of my friends seem to think that you need to be the hero. Should something be added to the article to clarify this?

Elvarg is laughibly easy to kill
I had 25 ranged when I did dragon slayer and using the safespot, I was able to kill Elvarg with a crossbow and 200 bronze bolts. I used no food.

I had a combat lvl of 43 and ranged lvl 20. I beat Elvarg in like 10 minutes using the same technique. The crossbow is awesome.--Cool Panino 11:06, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Elvarg drains prayer WTF
How long has this happened? 88.148.210.167 21:36, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

HELP NO FOOD
What do I do, when you run out of food? I cannot beat elvarg because my swordfish ran out. The people around me won't give food because nearly everyone wants you to die to take your armor.
 * Exit the cavern, go south (past the lessers), and push the wall. You can then climb the rope to the southeast to get to Karamja, or enter the TzHaar cave if you're a member (there's a bank there, and the monsters are not agressive). You can then restock and return.
 * Oh, and they can't take your armour because only items worth under 3,000 (5,000 now?) will become visible to others - I assume you're using nothing less than adamant armour, worth over 3,000 coins? 18:52, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

ftp
this quest guide is made from a ftp point of view. it says that you should use "adamant-rune" and assumes you dont know how to get planks. is this implying that should i do the quest in full dragon i will be 1 hitted?
 * Well...F2p quests are normally in their point of view. I guess we should improve some f2p quests to include member's point of view. 01:58, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
