Defender

Defenders are off-hand weapons that are wielded in the shield slot and provide positive attack bonuses. To wield a defender, a player must have an Attack level high enough to wield a weapon of that metal and a Defence level high enough to wear an armour of that metal, with the exception of the Dragon defender which only requires 1 Attack to wield.

Defenders are non-tradeable. They can be obtained by killing the Cyclopes on the top floor of the Warriors' Guild. Eventually a Cyclops will drop a bronze defender, and when a player has this, they need to go to Kamfreena (who is located on that floor) and show it to her. The next time that player enters, Kamfreena will inform the player that the Cyclopes will now drop the next level defender (iron). The player will then have to kill Cyclopes until they are lucky enough to receive this drop. This process is continued for steel, black, mithril, adamant, and rune until the player finally gets to the dragon defender. However, if a player drops their defender, most likely from death, they will need to start over. Because of this, it is wise for a player to keep their other defenders in their bank, so that they can show Kamfeena and start on the defender they dropped. For example, if a player loses his or her rune defender, but has an adamant defender in the bank, that can show her it and only have to work for the rune one, not all of them again. Multiple of the same defender can be obtained and many players choose to stock up on Dragon Defenders to avoid the hassle of obtaining another if the first is lost. The chance of obtaining a defender is 1/50; the only exception is the dragon defender, with a 1/100 drop rate.
