Blue dragon

Blue dragons are the third strongest of the chromatic dragons in the game right behind red dragons and black dragons (This does not include the metallic dragons). They are quite powerful because of their dragonfire attack which can deal up to 50+ damage if a player is hit without an Anti-dragon shield or Dragonfire shield. Due to their strong dragonfire attack, it is advised to equip either an anti-dragon shield or a dragonfire shield while fighting them — alongside an Antifire potion. On top of the strong dragon-fire breath they also attack with a surprisingly accurate slash attack.

Baby blue dragons may be killed as an alternative for a blue dragon slayer task.

It should be noted that Protect from Magic may be used as a substitute for an anti-dragon shield, provided players are comfortable with using prayer points for the extra benefit of a better shield.

The following methods will provide partial protection (numbers may not be accurate):

Anti-dragon Shield or Dragonfire Shield: Offers very high protection reducing the damage from a constant 25-50 down to a mere 2-5. Permanent

Protect from Magic: Offers fairly decent protection reducing the damage from the previously stated 25-50 down to a mere 2-7. Temporary

Antifire potion = Offers very high protection resulting in damage reduction similar to the shield mentioned above. Temporary.

The following methods will provide 100% protection but each has its own pros and cons:

Antifire potion + Anti-dragon or Dragonfire Shield: Temporary but saves a large amount of food considering how long each potion lasts.

Antifire potion + Protect from Magic: Not advised due to the highly costly downside of having to keep using prayer potions and antifire potions, but assuming you still have prayer points can be used for a long period of time.

An easy way to kill them will require the access to the Heroes' Guild.

If a player wishes not to spend any prayer potion or Antifire potion, a safespot can be used in the Heroes Guild. Players should climb down in the guild, and go a little further to find a blue dragon inside a cage. Walk a bit to the east, between the skeletons and you should be safe.From there, players can safespot the Blue Dragons, using Ranged or Magic spells.

Please note, it still is highly advised to wield an Anti-dragon Shield, in case the dragon reappears when picking up the loot.
