Mage's Guide to Red Dragons

[DarkPharoh]

Intro:
In the recent years people have been complaining about not being able to make money off mage while getting good expirence. I am a cheap guy and wanted the exp from mage while making an actual profit. Sure metal dragons are great but it takes a bit of work and you are not guarnteed a profit. There is a place that works out wonderfully and few know about it! All around the best place for money and exp.

Recomended items/lvls:
-Inventory:
Rune axe, Ardy or cammy teles (2 waters+2 laws; or 1 law+5 airs[if equiping fire staff]), 1,000 choas runes, 4,000 fires (you may use less if needed), 3 lobbs or equilvant food, and 905gp.

-Equip:
Full ahrim ns (or mystic), air staff, glory, ring of wealth, anti dragon shield, and god cape.

-Lvls:
At least 65 mage and must be able to survive attacks from lvl 63 wild dogs, lvl 48 baby dragons, lvl 86 fire giants, and lvl 152 red dragons.

Plan of attack:

Red circle-Dogs, dont attack them, there are two that will attack you keep them behing that area.

Yellow circle-When attacking stay in that area.

Green circle-Attack dragons when they are in the green circled area.

Thanks Tip.it for maps





Drops:
I get most of my drop profit from Treasure Trails with these. You will still make a profit from hides, and if you so choose bones, but extra on the side wont hurt. My best TT reward was worth about 1M.

Gold: 30-690
100%: Dragon bones, Red dragonhide,
Weapon: Dragon spear, Mithril 2h sword, Mithril axe, Mithril battleaxe, Mithril javelin(30), Rune darts(8), Rune javelin(5), Rune longsword
Armour: Adamant platebody, Mithril kiteshield, Dragon med helm
Runes/Arrows: Blood(2), Death(5), Law(4), Rune(4)
Misc: Adamant bar, Chocolate cake (3), Clue(lvl3), Half key, Herb, Shield left half(dragon), Uncut gems

Quick Notes:
Great for multi tasking, you can read habbox while gaining mage exp.
Remember to turn off auto retaliate.
If your a bit higher up in mage lvl you wont need tons of spells.
I burry bones, you can save though.
I've gotten from 66-81 mage by doing this, works well.
DONT DIE!

Um the steel dragons/iron dragons in the dungeon are better profit.
They drop rune limbs ( high alch ) And rune drops
along with d chain, skirt, and med.
And you dont need to safe spot
Just have anti fire sheild + anti fire breath potions on and stand a little away and your good :\

[DarkPharoh]

True, but this way is safer and you dont need to depend on good drops. Some people such as myself are not lucky when it comes to drops, red dragons work better for a consistant income.

[Distad]

Meh i never get any good drops at dragons =P
but i know my friend who is constinly ( SP? ) there training mage
got 85 + 2-3 dlegs + a few skirt drops =\
And like all my friends who play rs hate him for it lol :rolleyes:
It paid for his 70+ Cons gilided alter + dungeon..

And he has extreme luck when comes to barrows too

[DarkPharoh]

Yea I got a few friends like that. I have no luck in RS though, I work though it with probability. 100% works for me.

[Distad]

=P
Atm im starting to get addicted to herblore + barrows.
But iv taken like 3 barrows trips
trying to get suggestions for stats to get =l

[DarkPharoh]

Nice, I could never work herblore into my stats. Found it dull for the longest while lol. My best item from barrows was 500 mind runes Oo.

But i have always been fond of mage in rs since rsc. Finally got the cash to get it to 99!
