Rune Dragons

Rune dragons are metal dragons, they can be found in the eastern chamber of the Lithkren Vault. Rune Dragons can be assigned as an Elite Slayer Task by Duradel. Rune dragons have no slayer level requirement, however, players must have at least 1 billion combat experience shared between the seven combat stats (attack, strength, defense, range, prayer, magic, and hitpoints).

Players can travel to the laboratory underneath Lithkren, by using the mosters teleport to Lithkren Vault.

Runescape lore states that rune dragons are the result of a side project of Zorgoth's after being inspired by another dragonkin, Forcae, which involves infusing dragon eggs with various metals. While Forcae's metal dragons were created to find a solution to the dragonkin's infertility, Zorgoth had bred his metal dragons for his war against humanity.

Fight Overview

Rune dragons have multiple attacks, similar to mithril and adamant dragons. Along with standard dragonfire attacks, they have a standard melee, ranged and magic attack (which resembles Water Wave), as well as two special attacks.

The first attack is two small electric bolts, which are launched around the player's position and hones in on them. This deals 4–7 damage per tick for a few seconds. If a player is wearing insulated boots, this damage is reduced to 1–2 per tick. Players can avoid the attack entirely by running four to five 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 Life Leech effect from enchanted onyx bolts, where the dragon will heal itself for 100% of the damage dealt to the player.

*This effect exists in OSRS, waiting for clarification from PkHonor developers on whether or not this mechanic exists in game.

Fight Technique

Players should wear insulated boots (purchasable from any Slayer Master) while fighting rune dragons to reduce damage from the electric bolt attack. When players see this attack launched, they should immediately move 4-5 squares away. While fighting rune dragons, it is recommended to use a dragonfire shield and use a form of antifire potion.
