Dagannoth

Dagannoths are sea monsters. According to the Fremenniks, a tribe of barbarians, they are known as dagger-mouths (probably for the reason that their teeth are similar to little daggers). In appearance, they are similar to Xenomorphs. There are many types of Dagannoths, with the most powerful being the three Dagannoth Kings.

Dagannoth Mother
As part of the Horror from the Deep quest, players must visit the basement of a lighthouse, where they have to face a level 100 Dagannoth. This Dagannoth uses only melee attacks. After it is defeated, the Dagannoth Mother appears. She can use melee and ranged attacks. She can only be attacked effectively by certain types of attacks depending upon her colour. In order to attack her at all times, players must be prepared to use melee, ranged, and all types of magic attacks. The Dagannoth mother makes a reappearance in the Recipe for Disaster quest, in which she is created from jelly and is therefore called the Gelatinnoth Mother. However, she retains the same fighting style and weaknesses.

Lighthouse Dagannoths
After players are done with the Horror from the Deep quest, regular dagannoths will take over the lighthouse basement. They are level 74 and 92. They both use a ranged attack with terrible aim, while the level 92 Dagannoths also use melee (which is far more accurate). These Dagannoths are in a multi-combat area; and therefore, many players use cannons here. This is an excellent place to level both ranged and combat skills (and, to a lesser extent, magic).

Waterbirth Island Dagannoths
In the dungeon on Waterbirth Island, there are many unique types of Dagannoths and other sea monsters. First, there are level 90 Dagannoths. These use melee attacks that do a maximum of 15 damage. There are also level 42 Dagannoth spawn. They hatch from the eggs that are scattered all over the dungeon. Finally, there are level 88 Dagannoths that use ranged and hit up to 15 as well as level 70 Dagannoth fledglings.

Dagannoth Kings
The Dagannoth kings, Dagannoth Prime, Dagannoth Rex, and Dagannoth Supreme, reside in the Waterbirth Island dungeon. Dagannoth Rex uses melee attacks, Dagannoth Prime uses magic attacks, and Dagannoth Supreme uses ranged attacks. These level 303 monsters are three of the highest level opponents in RuneScape; only to be rivalled with the Mithril Dragon, Kalphite Queen, Chaos Elemental, Ket-Zek, God Wars Dungeon generals and TzTok-Jad.

Treasure Room Dagannoth
Players who train their Construction to high levels can build treasure rooms, where they can place a level 135 Dagannoth to guard their treasure. This Dagannoth uses only melee attacks.
