Elvarg

Elvarg is a green dragon. She is the dragon that players have to kill in the Dragon Slayer quest in the dungeon on Crandor. Unlike other chromatic dragons, Elvarg has a ranged dragonfire attack.

Elvarg was confirmed to be female in the 7 March 2007 Postbag from the Hedge, by such quotes as "She wouldn't 'a had second thoughts about roasting yer with her breath… and That's what she done to Crandor, after all…"

She can be fought in the Nightmare Zone after the quest is complete. An Anti-dragon shield is provided in the arena.

Fighting Strategy
When fighting Elvarg, it is required that players have an anti-dragon shield and a one-handed weapon preferably a rune longsword because it has the best stab bonus. A rune scimitar, rune battleaxe or rune mace has also been found effective enough. It is also recommended to have good quality armour, preferably Rune or Adamant; though it is possible to beat her with worse armour. The rest of the inventory should be filled with food and, if possible, potions. Lobsters or better are recommended, the exact type of food used depends on the level of the player and their ability to obtain the food. The level 43 Prayer, Protect from Melee, also helps players by protecting them from getting slashed by Elvarg's claws.

Tips

 * If a player chooses not to wield an anti-dragon shield, she can deal up to 65 damage.
 * Being hit by a breath attack without either an anti-dragon shield or antifire potion can drastically reduce Combat and Prayer stats.
 * Members can drink an antifire potion so that her fire breath doesn't do as much damage. If combined with an anti-dragon shield, fire breath will do little damage to the player.Elvarg adventurer.png
