'''Steel dragons''' are powerful [[dragons]] found in the [[Brimhaven Dungeon]] and the [[Catacombs of Kourend]]. Steel dragons are the fourth strongest of the six kinds of [[Metal dragons|metallic dragons]], behind [[mithril dragon]]s, [[adamant dragon]]s and [[rune dragon]]s. They have a chance of dropping the [[draconic visage]], which is the motivation of many steel dragon killers. Like their fellow metallic brethren, steel dragons can use long-range dragonfire in addition to using melee. The steel dragon boasts a higher max hit and accuracy compared to the [[iron dragon]], although it is far weaker than a mithril dragon.
   
  +
When given a task of steel dragons for [[Slayer]], they can be an extremely hard and long task for unprepared players. The cheapest way for players to kill them are using bolt spells with [[chaos gauntlet]]s to increase damage. Players can also use a [[slayer's staff (e)]] and [[Magic Dart]]. Alternatively, players can use ranged with an imbued slayer helmet to cover up lost accuracy against the dragon's high ranged defence. Higher levelled players can use the [[Zamorakian hasta]] or [[trident of the seas]]/[[Trident of the swamp|swamp]] to kill steel dragons.

<br>[[File:Culinaromancer unfrozen.png|thumb|220px|The Culinaromancer is unfrozen, and escapes back to his dimension!]]
 
After you have freed all the council members, you will see a [[cutscene]], where Gypsy Aris restarts time by saying "Tempus procedit!" The Culinaromancer will then retreat through the portal back to his own dimension, where he'll be ready to cause more trouble. Aris then says that you too must go through the portal to finish him off.
 
   
  +
They drop [[rune items]] frequently and have an increased chance of dropping [[dragon platelegs]] and [[dragon plateskirt]]s over their weaker metal counterparts (being the [[Iron dragon|iron]] and [[bronze dragon]]s). However, the [[runite limbs]], [[rune axe|axes]] and [[rune mace|maces]] generate quite a nice sum of [[coin]]s when [[High Level Alchemy|high-alched]] to conserve inventory space.
When you're in the strange dimension, you'll find the Culinaromancer, a few white portals that lead back to [[Lumbridge]], and one of your previous quest bosses. The Culinaromancer is too strong to be defeated until you've defeated the first five bosses. Prayer cannot be used in this dimension.
 
   
  +
Players can pick up the [[steel bars]] they drop to make profit, as they drop 5 at a time. However, this is unviable because players will need to bank after 4-5 kills which can hamper kill rates. Even with the completion of the [[Elite Karamja Diary]], which notes their steel bars, it is somewhat impractical as they are surrounded by many iron dragons.
'''You can leave and stock up after defeating one boss without losing your place in the fight. Items cannot be retrieved if you die or drop them here!'''
 
   
  +
If they are fought without complete dragonfire protection, it is recommended to stay in melee range and use [[Protect from Melee]], to reduce the amount of dragonfire damage taken.

[[Agrith-Na-Na]] is [[Agrith Naar]] from the [[Shadow of the Storm]] quest, but he is now made of bananas and is level 146. He uses [[melee]] up close and [[Fire Blast]] at a distance. Kill him however you like, with food. He drops one [[banana]].

If you're [[Ranged|ranging]], use [[ice arrows]]. You can [[snare]] him, run away, and then mage him so you only use little to no food. He drops [[cake]]s.

This is [[Kamil]] from the [[Desert Treasure]] quest. Fight [[Karamel|her]] up close with a [[Fire spell]] that you're well above the required level to do. Bring [[stat restore potion]]s (she lowers your stats) and lots of food, even with lowering your stats, Karamel is incredibly accurate. A good strategy is to use [[Fire Bolt]] with [[Chaos gauntlets]]. As per usual, [[Melee]] doesn't work on her very well. However, unlike in Desert Treasure, her melee attacks don't do much damage. Since her melee attacks are not very strong, a good tactic is to stand right next to her so she hits you with Melee, which reduces how frequently she uses her ice attacks. Manually casting spells is beneficial due to her freezing effects stopping your auto-attacks. She drops a [[choc-ice]].

This is the [[Dagannoth Mother]] from the [[Horror from the Deep]] quest, with that in mind you will need to bring Water, Air, Earth and Fire runes in order to attack her during her weakness. [[Gelatinnoth Mother|She]] can hit over 20 with [[Melee]], but she uses [[Ranged]] from a distance, which is usually incredibly inaccurate and hits 0's if you're wearing dragon (but can still hit up to 40 beware). She changes colour depending on her weakness. She has a low [[Magic]] [[Defence]], but high Melee and Ranged Defence. It is best not to bother with Melee or Ranged and just to focus on maging. A great strategy is to mage her while wearing [[rune armour]] or above. Otherwise, she will rip through [[Mystic robes]] and other magic robes with her ranged attacks. Your spells will still hit because of her low Magic Defence. She is level 130.

Normal Catacombs of Kourend

















































Steel dragon icon

Steel dragons are powerful dragons found in the Brimhaven Dungeon and the Catacombs of Kourend. Steel dragons are the fourth strongest of the six kinds of metallic dragons, behind mithril dragons, adamant dragons and rune dragons. They have a chance of dropping the draconic visage, which is the motivation of many steel dragon killers. Like their fellow metallic brethren, steel dragons can use long-range dragonfire in addition to using melee. The steel dragon boasts a higher max hit and accuracy compared to the iron dragon, although it is far weaker than a mithril dragon.

When given a task of steel dragons for Slayer, they can be an extremely hard and long task for unprepared players. The cheapest way for players to kill them are using bolt spells with chaos gauntlets to increase damage. Players can also use a slayer's staff (e) and Magic Dart. Alternatively, players can use ranged with an imbued slayer helmet to cover up lost accuracy against the dragon's high ranged defence. Higher levelled players can use the Zamorakian hasta or trident of the seas/swamp to kill steel dragons.

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.

Players can pick up the steel bars they drop to make profit, as they drop 5 at a time. However, this is unviable because players will need to bank after 4-5 kills which can hamper kill rates. Even with the completion of the Elite Karamja Diary, which notes their steel bars, it is somewhat impractical as they are surrounded by many iron dragons.

If they are fought without complete dragonfire protection, it is recommended to stay in melee range and use Protect from Melee, to reduce the amount of dragonfire damage taken.
