'''King Black Dragon''' is the ordinary three-headed dragon boss reached through the Sarim Hub's '''King black dragon''' destination. The teleport lands in the entrance room; the lever is the final step into the public lair. This page covers the ordinary dragon, with base 240 Hitpoints, separate from [[Echo King Black Dragon]].
The '''King Black Dragon''' is a three-headed dragon in the King Black Dragon lair. He uses melee and several types of dragonfire. For the Echo encounter, see [[Echo King Black Dragon]].

Choose '''King black dragon''' in the [[Teleports Menu|Sarim Hub]], then '''pull''' the entrance-room lever to enter the public lair. The return lever takes you back to the entrance room.


The entrance lever also offers '''commune''' for a private encounter. Confirm the instance creation dialogue; this specific route skips the instance-token charge. It checks teleblock and the instance system's teleport restrictions.
For a private encounter, choose '''commune''' on the entrance lever and confirm. This entrance does not require instance tokens.


Hub travel uses the usual teleport checks, including locked states, teleblock and the level-20 Wilderness departure limit. The public lever uses its own travel sequence without that Wilderness-level cap, while still respecting the other shared checks.
== Fight ==
The King Black Dragon attacks every seven ticks. Within one tile, he can use melee with a maximum hit of 25. His dragonfire reaches up to eight tiles and hits up to 65 without protection.


== Fighting the dragon ==
Bring dragonfire protection. Antifire potions, anti-dragon and [[Dragonfire shield|dragonfire shields]], and Protect from Magic reduce dragonfire damage. Super antifire provides full dragonfire resistance, but special breaths still deal damage and apply their effects:
The dragon can select a melee attack when you are within one tile. Its configured melee maximum is 25, while its breath attacks can operate within eight tiles. The base attack interval is seven ticks.


Bring dragonfire protection. Breath damage depends on your dragonfire resistance: the unprotected base limit is 65, while resistance reduces the calculation. Antifire potions and the supported anti-dragon or dragonfire shields each contribute resistance, as does Protect from Magic; super antifire supplies a full resistance contribution. Applicable perks and relics can also change resistance.
* '''Freezing breath''' can freeze you for three seconds.
* '''Shock breath''' can drain Attack, Strength, Defence, Ranged and Magic by two levels.
* '''Poison breath''' can poison you, starting at eight damage.


Without equipment overrides, special breaths retain minimum base limits even with strong resistance: freezing and poison breaths have a floor of 10, while the shock breath has a floor of 12. The freezing effect can immobilise you for three seconds. Shock can drain Attack, Strength, Defence, Ranged and Magic by two levels, and poison breath can apply poison starting at eight damage. Protection against raw dragonfire damage should therefore not be mistaken for protection from every additional effect.
Standing away from the dragon avoids his melee attacks, but does not stop his dragonfire.


Distance prevents the close-range melee selection, but breaths still reach within eight tiles. Damage figures describe base rolls before target modifiers.
== Drops ==
 
Each kill drops dragon bones and two black dragonhides. Notable rewards include the '''dragon pickaxe''', '''[[Draconic visage|draconic visage]]''', '''Big wing''' and '''KBD heads'''.
== Rewards ==
The main loot path guarantees one dragon bone and two black dragonhides before relevant reward-routing effects. Notable possible rewards include a dragon pickaxe, draconic visage, Big wing and KBD heads. '''Prince black dragon''' is associated with a separate pet-unlock roll. This table excludes [[Echo King Black Dragon]] rewards.
 
== Main drop table ==
The table lists the ordinary boss's configured main loot and quantity per awarded outcome, before player effects. Guaranteed entries are separate from optional rewards. It excludes shared bonus cash, clue, rare-table and event rewards. Rates are omitted because candidate selection, priority and player modifiers affect the final chance.

Fight

The King Black Dragon attacks every seven ticks. Within one tile, he can use melee with a maximum hit of 25. His dragonfire reaches up to eight tiles and hits up to 65 without protection.

Bring dragonfire protection. Antifire potions, anti-dragon and dragonfire shields, and Protect from Magic reduce dragonfire damage. Super antifire provides full dragonfire resistance, but special breaths still deal damage and apply their effects:
