1.0 - Introduction & Information
Frost dragons can be found in the Asgarnian Ice Dungeon resource dungeon. Which is located south of Port Sarim towards Mudskipper Point.
(click to show/hide)

It is important to pay attention whilst killing Frost Dragons, as sometimes a blue orb can appear which will reflect up to 80% of all damage dealt back to you. it is suggested that when you see the blue orb appear, or a reflect damage upon yourself, that you stop attacking and give it 3-5 seconds to vanish. Once it has vanished you may continue killing the Frost Dragon.

Frost Dragons can attack with Dragonfire, so it's suggested to take antifire potions or an Anti-dragon shield.

It is also highly advisable to bring along a War Tortoise (67 Summoning) or a Pack Yak (96 Summoning) to store Frost Dragons bones in these Beasts of Burdens. Alternatively you may use Magic Notepaper in order to note the bones.


1.1 - Requirements & Suggestions
  • 85 Dungeoneering [Required]
  • 85 Herblore [Suggested]
  • 70+ Combat Stats [Suggested]
  • 67 or 96 Summoning [Suggested]


1.2 - Combat Methods
Frost Dragons are weak to stab weapons, which makes using chaotic or drygore rapiers a popular weapon. However, other melee weapons like Godswords may provide a good alternative as long as you have access to antifires.

Item (most effective → least effective)

• Helmet: Bandos Helmet  →  Barrows Helmet  →  Dragon Helmet  →  Rune Helmet
• Top: Bandos Chestplate  →  Barrows Platebody  →  Dragon Chainbody/Platebody  →  Rune Platebody
• Bottoms: Bandos Tassets  →  Barrows bottom  →  Dragon Platelegs  →  Rune Platelegs
• Gloves: Bandos Gloves  →  Culinaromancer's Gloves  →  Rock Shell Gloves
• Boots: Bandos Boots  →  Dragon Boots  →  Rock Shell Boots
• Amulet: Brawler's Knockout Necklace  →  Saradomin's Whisper  →  Amulet of Fury
• Cape: Reefwalker's Cape  →  Skillcape  →  Obsidian Cape
• 2H Weapon: Chaotic Maul/Spear  →  Godswords  →  Barrows Weaponry  →  Dragon 2H
• X2 Weapon: Chaotic Rapiers/Longswords  →  Abyssal Whip  →  Dragon Scimitar / Longsword.
• Aura Vampyrisim  →  Brawler  →  Aegis
• Ring: Sixth-age circuit  →  Explorer's Ring  →  Ring of Wealth



1.3 - Inventory & Familiar
Since Frost Dragons are fairly easy, you're really not going to need a lot of potions of food - Save as much space as possible so you can pick up the Frost Dragon Bones.


Something similar to this inventory layout is really all you need -- Although you may require more food the lower your stats.

As for a familiar, I highly suggest taking a War Tortoise (67 Summoning) or a Pack Yak (96 Summoning) to store the Frost Dragon Bones to increase your profit per hour.


1.4 - Abilities & Invention

For a 2H Melee set up, you should use something similar to this ability bar:


For a Dual Wield Melee set up, you should use something similar to this ability bar:
