IeatWindex Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Well I want to try my luck on iron dragons, so am I strong enough? Im going to have an anti-dragonfire shield, prayer potions, and anti-dragonfire potions. When I get the money I will buy a dragonfire shield. So back to the question, what levels would I need meleeing the dragon? And what armor will I need? Im going to use a whip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forsooth Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 you don't have the levels to mage them, let alone melee them, i don't know if you've been there before, but if you have, you will have noticed it's levels 115+ meleeing them. get my levels or around 85's before trying, and i'd say atleast 70 prayer. also wear initiate or the better one hauberk or however you spell it.

Sy_Accursed Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Yeah meleeing metal dragon is pretty much suicidal unless you have 90+ att, str, def and hp basically. You could mage them, just about, but you'd be better with a higher mage level. All in all you thinking your gonna do any good against them is deluded at best, you need to train mage then give them a go or gain ALOT of levels in att str and def before even thinking about meleeing them Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hidhaeg Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 There is a chance you'd be able to do it - with mage.. However, bring some teleportation runes just in case you get slaughtered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IeatWindex Posted July 20, 2008 Author Share Posted July 20, 2008 Yea I need to train, What if I use Flames of Zamorak on the dragons? I will probably high alch my way to 70 magic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nerdattack16 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Either 80+ attack and 75+ strength, 70+ magic, or 75+ ranged will suffice for effectiveness. Sig credit goes to ThruItAll. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaaps1 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Yea I need to train, What if I use Flames of Zamorak on the dragons? I will probably high alch my way to 70 magic. Claw of Guthix is better. It lowers defence. Even if it doesn't make too much of a difference, you can autocast it with the Void Mace. ~It's Super Effective!

You will waste way too much money using any god spell there. Using fire wave barely breaks even and its cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slayer Helm gives +15% Att and str. Try them without it and you'll have a hard time. Thanks to all those who have messaged me concerning a revamp of my Range-Slayer guide.

That was with the helm, without it you wouldn't have done nearly as good. I can manage 25 kills a trip meleeing without prayer while using my helm, without it I can only get 8-12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if it would be effective at the levels you actually have, but there's nothing stopping you from trying. I'm also pointing at that it is not suicidal to go there with under 90 melee skills, and in fact works pretty well. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With his melee stats he's got little chance of not dying to them very quickly. Equally unless you have experience maging them so you can see how others deal with them melee style while ur there it's quite risky to melee them below about 90 combat stats Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equally unless you have experience maging them so you can see how others deal with them melee style while ur there it's quite risky to melee them below about 90 combat stats You seem to miss the point. If you wear an antidragon shield, drink an antifire potion and use melee pray, you don't take any damage. It's nearly impossible to die if you do this. I'd say, try to melee them with a super att/str potion. If it's really slow, just try it again with higher att/str. During slayer tasks, 80 or 85 attack should do.

Returned3 Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Just remember to drink your friendly neighbourhood purple liquid in a vial that lasts for 6 mins and put the protect melee prayer on and you're good. Dont bring food if your planning to melee em in Prosolete and.. bring a tele tab incase your on the brink of death. 00:00:0500:00:0400:00:0300:00:0200:00:0100:00:00 Break the Walls down!

Equall to melee them with thoose levels your gonna spend double what you earn on pots unless u some how get d legs or skirt every other drop Operation Gold Sparkles :: Chompy Kills :: Full Profound :: Champions :: Barbarian Notes :: Champions Tackle Box :: MA RewardsDragonkin Journals :: Ports Stories :: Elder Chronicles :: Boss Slayer :: Penance King :: Kal'gerion Titles :: Gold Statue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
