March 30, 201214 yr Alright, I did make a thread asking for help on soloing the king black dragon, and people did help me out. But instead of thanking the people and actually talking about something relevant to that I went off topic and laughed at people who wanted to help me, and I'm sorry about that. This time I will not go off-topic. So here is my gear: I will be wearing:CoifBlack d'hide bodyBlack d'hide vambracesAmulet of GloryBlack d'hide chapsNo boots because I don't have ranger boots and the dragon boots decrease Ranged accuracy (even though it's just by one point it's still a big deal to me.)Rune crossbowAntidragon shieldThieving cape500 Rune bolts I will bring:10 Prayer potions10 Sharks2 Law runes2 Water rune Prayer: Protect from missiles Now keep in mind that I will not do it just yet. First I have to make something out of the drops I got from monsters such as bars and ingreniums for food. But as soon as I'm done with that (which could take weeks) I will go directly to fight that dragon. The reason why I'm asking if this is the right thing to wear is because I don't wanna waste my rune bolts and find out that I don't have the right outfit. Also, the only degradable item I use is my Verac's helmet, I'm against using any other since I don't wanna pay every few hours when using stuff like that. This time I promise I will stay on topic, and not laugh at people who are trying to help me.
March 30, 201214 yr Are there specific limitations (such as being a DIYer)? Thanks to Iglw for the amazing signature!
March 30, 201214 yr Author Are there specific limitations (such as being a DIYer)? If "DIYer" means that I do stuff in RuneScape by myself, then yes.
March 30, 201214 yr So here is my gear: I will be wearing:Coif Snakeskin BandanaBlack d'hide bodyBlack d'hide vambraces Culinaromancer's gloves from RFDAmulet of GloryBlack d'hide chapsNo boots Snakeskin boots - These can be made easilyRune crossbowZamorak book - Anti-dragon shield (in combination with antifire potion)Thieving cape Ava's Device This is the main thing that will keep bolts from disappearing. It also gives a ranged attack bonus.500 Rune bolts I will bring:10 Prayer potions10 Sharks2 Law runes2 Water rune Use the teleport on the glorySuper antifire potion or Antifire potionRanging potionAntipoison Fill the remaining spots with food and you should be good to go That stuff should be easy to obtain, either from quests or made yourself. Good luck :thumbup: Thanks to Iglw for the amazing signature!
March 30, 201214 yr Author Of course, how could I forget about the antidragon shield? I'm such an idiot. Well I edited the first post to include that. And thanks for the help. Now I have a question. Let's say my bolts didn't come back. Would 500 rune bolts be enough to kill that dragon or do I need more? Not that I have a problem getting Ava's device the quest seems easy enough.
March 30, 201214 yr Author Added a few things into my own post :P I already have all the potions you have added to the post, so that shouldn't be a problem. I have another question, why can't I teleport to Ardougne as soon as I'm done killing the dragon? Does the wilderness teleport limitation also apply to his lair?
March 30, 201214 yr 500 runite bolts are more than enough for many kills, unless you are like 40 range. I have another question, why can't I teleport to Ardougne as soon as I'm done killing the dragon? Does the wilderness teleport limitation also apply to his lair?You can teleport in the lair. Glory is better because it doesn't require more inventory space thus letting you carry more food and getting more kills. "Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night's Watch, for this night and all the nights to come." "An imperfect man can do great deeds, and a great man imperfect ones.

Does the wilderness teleport limitation also apply to his lair?No, the limit doesn't still apply to his lair, and you can teleport there as soon as you're done. BUT, with the amulet of glory, you already have a teleport on your character and it leaves space for 2 more pieces of food if it replaces the runes. Thanks to Iglw for the amazing signature!
March 30, 201214 yr Author Again, thanks for the help. By the time I go to his lair, I will be ready. But I will start by only killing him one time.
March 30, 201214 yr Killing him one at the time is just as fast as banking, he respawns VERY slowly (to the point that some people hop worlds for faster kills). You could try bringing a familiar, the lair is multi-combat so it can fight for you or carry supplies.

June 17, 201214 yr Author Alright, it won't be long until I fight the king black dragon. I will be using rune bolts, wear full dragonhide armor and have inventory like this: 10 Sharks5 Supre Antipoison potions5 Antidragon potions5 Prayer potions2 Law runes2 Water runes I believe I'm ready.
June 17, 201214 yr Those potions will last you more than an hour, if you're doing a short trip, just bring 1 antifire/antipoison++, and a ranging potion, every extra space for food helps! ;) ^^My blog of EoC PvM, lols and Therapy.^^My livestream- Currently: Offline :(Offical Harpy Therapist of the Mad[hide=Lewtations]Barrows drops: Dharok's helm x2, Guthan's helm, Ahrim's top, Hood and skirt, Torag's hammers, Karils skirt, Karil's top, Torag's helm, Verac's skirt, Verac's Flail, Dharok's Platebody.Dag kings drops: Lost count! :wall:4k+ Glacors, 7 Ragefires, 4 Steadfasts, 4 Glaivens, 400+ shards![/hide]
June 17, 201214 yr Author Maybe I am going overboard with the potions. Yeah, since it will probably only take me one antifire potion to kill the dragon having 5 is more than unnecessary. Will shark even be necessary at all? I mean if I'm holding a shield, using antifire potions and protect from ranged while fighting the dragon from distance will he be able to harm me? I'll see for myself when I solo that thing. Which will be in a few days.

June 17, 201214 yr Super antifires only reduce his special dragon fire attacks to a max hit of 100. I suggest you read this... http://tip.it/runescape/?page=King_Black_Dragon_Guide.htm Its pretty up to date. Otherwise check out my blog for a melee guide. At your melee stats meleeing will be faster than ranging. One dose of super antifire should last you at least 3 kills (lasts me 4-5 but I'm overloaded with turmoil and 99 str +Crapier). Armadyl Drops : 4 Hilts; 3 Chestplates; 2 Chainskirts; 1 Helmet; 1 Buckler; 2 Shard 1; 2 Shard 2; 1 Shard 3Nex : 1 Zaryte BowKalphite King : 1 Drygore Rapier ; 1 Drygore Longsword : 1 Drygore Offhand Rapier : 1 Drygore Offhand Longsword
June 18, 201214 yr Can you use Archer's helm? Wouldn't that be a better choice than Coif/Snakeskin bandana?
June 18, 201214 yr Author I just wanna thank you guys again. Thanks for all the help. This dragon was very easy to take down, because I was prepared to fight him. The first thing he dropped were 4 sharks, kinda dissapointing, but it's ok. I might kill this beast again some time. And I also realized that I might need a lot of sharks, but I only need a few doses of each potions, less than four, so it was unnecessary to bring 5 of each. Thanks for the help, I don't know when I'll kill this dragon again, but since I had to waste so many sharks on him, I don't think I'm gonna do it regularly.
June 18, 201214 yr Author you should use monkfish because then you save money I already have plenty of sharks in my bank. And I also have a lot of other type of food like pineapple pizzas, basses, swordfish, and monks. But I have more sharks than any other type of food in my bank.
