Dragon scimitar (2)

The dragon scimitar is the strongest scimitar available in Old School RuneScape. It can only be wielded by players who have 60 Attack and have completed the Monkey Madness I quest. It also shares similar bonuses with Viggora's chainmace, with the chainmace being a crush weapon rather than a slash weapon.

It may be purchased from Daga on Ape Atoll for 100,000 coins. A Monkeyspeak amulet does not need to be worn, as players can just right-click 'Trade' on Daga; however, you still must be in monkey form, unless you have completed Monkey Madness II after which the monkey form is no longer required. Players who have freed King Awowogei in Recipe for Disaster can easily reach Marim through the Ape Atoll Teleport spell (requires 64 Magic) to access Daga's shop on Ape Atoll more quickly. The scimitar is also a rare drop from the Wilderness boss Scorpia.

Players can attach a dragon scimitar ornament kit, obtained from elite clue scrolls, to cosmetically enhance the scimitar, creating a dragon scimitar (or). This only alters its appearance, and gives no stat enhancements. It can be dismantled, returning the scimitar and ornament kit.

As with most dragon equipment, the dragon scimitar cannot be made from raw materials using the Smithing skill.

Special attack[edit | edit source]

Dragon scimitar (37)

The dragon scimitar has a special attack, Sever, costing 55% of the player's special attack energy. Sever rolls against the target's slash defence with 25% higher accuracy,[1] and prevents the target (players only) from using the Protect from Magic, Protect from Missiles, and Protect from Melee prayers for 5 seconds.

Comparison with other weapons[edit | edit source]

The dragon scimitar is one of the most easily attainable one-handed training weapons in the game, with the Ghrazi rapier, Blade of saeldor, Abyssal tentacle, Abyssal whip, Abyssal dagger, Zamorakian hasta, Staff of the dead, Inquisitor's mace, Osmumten's fang, and the Sarachnis cudgel outperforming it. However, due to whips and hastae being unable to solely train strength, the dragon scimitar is often used to do so, and is therefore one of the most commonly used weapons in the game to train strength.

In comparison, the Saradomin sword offers a +82 Strength bonus and +82 Slash attack. Saradomin's blessed sword offers a +88 Strength bonus and +100 slash attack. The Abyssal whip offers a +82 Strength bonus and +82 slash attack. The Abyssal dagger offers a +75 Strength bonus and +75 stab attack.

Changes[edit | edit source]

DateChanges
4April2005
(update)

The Dragon scimitar special attack was changed to use 55% special attack energy and now prevents your opponent from using protection prayers for 5 seconds.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • The dragon scimitar was not actually released until almost four months after the release of the Monkey Madness I quest on 29 March 2005.
  • If the player asked Zeke to sell them a dragon scimitar, he would say, "Seriously, you'll be a monkey's uncle before you'll ever hold a dragon scimitar." The joke is that in Monkey Madness I, the player plays the role of a monkey's uncle to complete a certain part of the quest, and completing the quest is required to wield the dragon scimitar.
  • The Dragon scimitar originally had a special attack that stopped your opponent from moving for a short period of time but Jagex later changed it in an update to stop protection prayers instead.
