Throughout the kill, you have to keep run off and use control click to run. Offensively, he has 560 Attack, 308 Strength/Ranged, 150 Magic, +16 melee, +150 magic and +78 ranged accuracy. Defensively, he has a Defence level of 214, +26 stab/ranged, +108 slash/crush and +240 magic defence bonus. This makes him similar to most dragons in OSRS as he is weak against the stab melee and ranged.

The effective protection prayer to use based on the gear being used:

    • Protect from Magic if you use Melee, a Toxic blowpipe, Book of law or Super antifire potion.
    • Protect from Missiles if you use a crossbow along a Dragonfire ward, Dragonfire shield, Anti-dragon shield, or Super antifire potion.

In addition, he will be able to poison you with his venom dragonfire. Keep in mind that pink dragonfire can turn off every single active prayer. For this case, divine potions are very recommended over normal potions.
