Price history



 * With the release of Barrows Equipment, the dragon chainbody saw a small fall in price, although it was still seen as the best non-degrading armour and therefore still held a reasonable value. Throughout much of 2006 the dragon chainbody was worth approximately 15-18M.
 * With the release of the Bandos chestplate in August 2007, the price of the dragon chainbody decreased slightly. The Grand Exchange was also released, although this did not significantly affect the price of the dragon chainbody. In late 2007 and early 2008, the dragon chainbody was worth approximately 10M.
 * Throughout the Summer and Autumn of 2008, the Dragon chainbody fell to a little under 8M.
 * With the release of the dragon platebody in November 2008, the price of the dragon chainbody crashed at the maximum rate of 5% per day, and then rebounded, as shown in the graph. Afterwards, the price of the dragon chainbody steadily decreased and for a while was stable at approximately 5M.
 * When Bounty Worlds came out in May 2009, the price of dragon chainbodies crashed for several days nearly at the maximum rate, reaching under 3.5M each. This was related to the fact that dragon chainbodies could be obtained as a drop from players in PvP and Bounty Hunter worlds, but the actual crash immediately following the update was mostly due to panic, as can be seen by the rebound to 4.4M a few days later.
 * On 17 June 2009, dragon chainbodies were removed from the PvP drop table, and that, combined with inflation, brought the price to 7M by the end of November 2009.
 * Due to the new Dragon Defender update price of the dragon chainbody has raised slightly. This could be due to the fact that a dragon chainbody is more aesthetically pleasing combined with a dragon defender.

Trivia

 * A symbol of a dragon is located at the centre of the chainbody.


 * A Captured Adventurer in My Arm's Big Adventure has his Dragon Chainbody laying on the kitchen floor to taunt the player. When the player asks Burntmeat for it later, he mentions having thrown it away due to the fact he can't eat it.
 * In graphical depictions the Dragon Chainbody often appears as scalemail.
