**Adamant Dragons**
Adamant dragons are a type of metal dragon that can be found in the western chamber of the Lithkren Vault. Adamant Dragons can be assigned as an Elite [[skills:slayer|Slayer Task]] by Duradel. Adamant dragons have no [[skills:slayer|Slayer]] level requirement to kill. Players must have at least 500 Million combat experience shared between the seven combat stats (attack, strength, defense, range, prayer, magic, and hitpoints) to enter the chamber.
**Fight overview**
Adamant dragons have multiple attacks, similar to mithril and rune dragons. Along with standard dragonfire attacks, they have a standard melee, ranged and magic attack (which resembles Earth Wave), as well as two unique attacks.
The first attack is a poison projectile, which lands on the player's position and splits into two more projectiles around the original projectile in a 5x5 area. These projectiles can hit from 14-25, but can be reduced to 4-8 by being under the effect of any poison protection. Players can avoid the attack entirely by moving three squares away from their original position when the attack was launched.
The second attack is a Ranged attack that hits through Protect from Missiles, and uses the Blood Forfeit effect from enchanted ruby bolts, where the dragon sacrifices 10% of its current hitpoints to deal damage equal to 20% of the player's current hitpoints. Because of this effect, it is recommended to keep the player's hitpoints around 40-50 to minimize the damage dealt from this attack.
**Fight Technique**
The best attack style for killing this boss is Melee. Use the highest level gear available and bring a form of Dragonfire protection and poison protection.
**Location**
Adamant dragons can be found in the western chamber of the Lithkren Vault. Use the Monsters Teleport in the Spellbook to reach the Lithkren Vault.
**Drops**
Adamant dragons have several notable drops. The full Drop tables can be found on the official [[stats:drops|Wiki Drops Page]]. This page will automatically update if any changes are made.
