Dragon chainbody



The Dragon Chainbody is the second most powerful chainbody in RuneScape (in terms of defence), only after Vesta's chainbody, and can be worn by players with a Defence level of 60. Due to the difficulty in obtaining this item and the availability of cheaper armour with better statistics, the dragon chainbody is worn predominately as a show of wealth rather than a functional piece of armour.

The dragon chainbody is dropped by the Kalphite queen and Dust Devils (level 65 Slayer required to kill them). It is also a possible drop on PvP worlds if ideal conditions are met for the kill. Finally, the Dragon chainbody can be won through the "high gamble" option in the Barbarian assault mini-game, costing 500 points per gamble.

The corrupt dragon chainbody is also a possible drop on PvP worlds. It has the same stats as the non-corrupt version but only lasts 30 minutes of wearing. However, it is usable on F2P worlds and is popularly used for short PvP sessions.

This item cannot be made using the Smithing skill.
