Steel dragon

Steel dragons are powerful dragons found in Brimhaven Dungeon and the Stronghold Slayer Cave. Steel dragons are the second strongest of the four kinds of metallic dragons behind mithril dragons. They have a chance of dropping the draconic visage, which is the motivation of many steel dragon killers. Killing them is very dangerous due to their ability to discharge long-range dragonfire, which can only be fully nullified with both an anti-dragon shield AND antifire potion from a distance if using Range or Magic. Using only one form of dragonfire protection, however, will result in partial damage. Also, they can hit pretty hard with Melee if the player gets too close and forgets to activate Protect from Melee.

They drop rune items frequently and have an increased chance of dropping dragon platelegs and dragon plateskirts over their weaker metal counterparts (being the iron and bronze dragons). However, the runite limbs, axes and maces generate quite a nice sum of coins when high-alched to conserve inventory space.

A good method to maximize profits on tasks, if you have access to Slayer rings, you can collect the steel bars on each inventory, and quickly bank from the Slayer Dungeon to the Gnome Stronghold bank. This method is best if using 1-dose potions, to drop the vials after drinking them. Although this is a very profitable method, it does take a very long time to complete the task due to the amount of trips.
