Useful Info

Red draconians are the fire-themed members of the draconian family. Although their fire breath attacks are fairly powerful (3d18) and leave flame clouds where they land, you should probably be prepared for fire already due to the draconian scorchers and orbs of fire you can also find in the area. They can be found primarily in the Realm of Zot, but occasionally appear in the Abyss.

Tips & Tricks

• Fire resistance helps defend against their breath attacks. Freezing-branded weapons help make combat against them much easier.
• Monstrous red draconians are far less effective with their fire breath than a competent player, as they always aim it to go as far as possible, rather than at the feet of their target. When fighting red draconians, just avoid standing with your back to a wall.
