Useful Info
Iron dragons are every bit as tough as their name implies. They're slow and can't fly, but make up for this by having high AC, HP, magic resistance, and resistance to fire, cold, and poison. They deal significant amounts of damage both in melee and at range, and as they take a while to bring down, be prepared to take a beating in the process. These dragons can be found occasionally in the Vaults and the Depths, and appear very frequently throughout the Iron City of Dis, particularly on its final floor.
Unlike some dragons, butchering an iron dragon does not produce a hide.

Tips & Tricks
- The only commonly available element they aren't resistant to is electricity. If you've got significant Air Magic training or the right items, feel free to zap them.
- As they're slow, kiting iron dragons is also an option, but only if you have the room to do so. Dis:8 and Vaults:5 generally aren't too conducive to the practice, unfortunately.
