You can do it. One of my 1 def pures did it with a cbow. Use apple pies :thumbsup:

 

 

 

This character too, Lady Cai, defeated Elvarg at level 30 def with magic.

Well there must be a safespot then?

 

I have 66 magic, and 52 range... Guess magic is the best option.

NO

 

 

 

Dragons (metal dragons excluded) are resistant to magic hence why all range armour is made of dragon hide leather and rangers a are strong over mages.

 

 

 

If your gonna distance it use range

Melee is by far the quickest option. But if you are intent of ranging you MUST use a CROSSBOW in F2P, because if you wield a bow you'll forfeit the Anti-dragonshield. Without that you're most likely toast.

 

 

 

That means you are restricted to a bronze crossbow with bronze bolts. There's virtually no ranged bonus, but it still beats maging.

expect 3-5 trips trying to kill the dragon...took me 2 trys doing bolts with 60+def and range

Nope, I did it without dragonshield easily: if you mage pray and stand on a distance the dragonfire attack won't hurt you!

First they came to fishing

and I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing

 

Then they came to the yews

and I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews

 

Then they came for the ores

and I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores

 

Then they came for me

and there was no one left to speak out for me.

Well first off if my experience with normal dragons is correct protect from mage prayer only gives you partial protection, which means the dragonfire still has a chance of inflicting serious damage.

 

 

 

When I was at Mithril dragons and used a whip with DFS, the max damage I got was about 8 (when I wasn't using Antifires). However when I tried to Godsword them with Mage Prayer, they still hit 20s and rare 30s on me. You're risking a lot more.

was 80 range, 40 def when i took it down 10 shots of bronze xbow and bolts. ive seen others with like 60 range and 1 def do it too so you can do it

 

 

 

stand up next to them and wear

 

 

 

dhide legs, dhide vambs

 

rune chain and full helm (substitute addy in if your not getting 40 def before you do this)

 

bronze xbow and bolts

 

antifire shield

 

power ammy and maybe a cape

 

explorer ring

 

 

 

bring swordies and the highest i was hit was 10. swordies heal 14 so youll do fine. if you run out of food (very unlikely) just go bank with explorer ring and try another round.. if its a dead world then noone should have taken your kill and ull be right where u left off (+ whatever he healed when u were gone)

Incorrect.

 

You lure elvarg with a antifire dragon shield to a safe spot, switch to bow in safe spot then range it until dead.

That old trick works? Didn't they remove that a while ago?

my pure and Lady Cai did not use safespots. You'll get hit by it's attacks regardless where you stand.
