I've always liked making guides and PvMing, so let's mix the two together and here we are. Hopefully you guys enjoy this KBD guide that I made, I am planning to do more bossing guides going forward after I finish up doing them on my other account so that I can form a well versed opinion on the bosses before I make the guide. Hope you enjoy and let me know if I missed anything!

The Ultimate King Black Dragon Guide in OSRS (2020)

[@owenrettie6692]

The hardest part is walking the 20 tiles without getting pked

[@rosinssb5506]

I havent watched the video yet but imo its much safer to tele out to ghorrock rather than burning ammy and its about the same distance

[@jhondheer1438]

@@andrewa5331 theres many ways to do it and its really greasy

[@tylerb4994]

I reccomend wearing black d hide body and legs instead of blessed d hide. Your only losing 2 prayer bonus but if you get pked your saving tons of GP. Getting pked in that hide will take a solid hour of kbd just to make it back lol

[@adam3402]

Good advice for us poor folk. I was over here hyping myself up to take full blessed haha.

[@MS-pw6jx]

for sure

[@LidlRaccoon]

just did this same thing, KBD is weak enough that it doesn't matter at "mid" level ranged

[@Deathurway22]

@@LidlRaccoon weak enough? Kbd has high defense and I'm almost 90 range and barely can do 5 kills a inv 🤣 that's budget gear tho I can do alot more if I risked better gear

[@dallastuggle8901]

One note, the dragon sword is a far better stab weapon than the dragon scimitar on stab its a +65 on the sword and only +8 on the dragon scim. Scims are terrible for stabbing.

[@Sweet9964]

his lowest setup uses an abby dagger. he doesn't tell you to use a dragon scimitar?

I just died for the first time the other day, a guy was camping the burning amulet spot and was so quick. That damn black knight really screws me up because I can't logout or hop. But in about 400 kills that was the first time I died, might be because of coronavirus making the wilderness busy.

[@halomlg117]

Have one player use Lunars to tan the hide, make it into Dhide body and alch it with your partner or using the explorers ring(4) if solo.

[@danpalmer5693]

Couldn’t you just throw on protect mage before you tele to wilderness? That would negate being frozen and teleblocked, right?

[@Dylan1124]

yes

[@jesselewis95]

Thanks for the guide, after seeing you earlier in the Lumbridge castle dungeon I thought it was appropriate to use your guide for KBD, great guide and keep the content coming!!!

[@movehumble8861]

Was going for KBD head, got it at 27 kc after watching this. Very simple boss for beginners. Great guide!

[@alexarnold3251]

If you are using bow you dont need super antifire, you have to pray mage and use regular (extended)

[@jordanclarxon6246]

Great guide. First time doing kbd ever and got a nice 20 kc in about 30 minutes with budget gear and stats :)

[@La_Verge]

Can you tp out directly from its lair?

[@hamandswiss5152]

Yes you can, pretty sure a ring of wealth will tele you out

[@BassBumpin108]

If you bring a looting bag you can fill it up right outside the lever. If you want to super boost your trips, the suicide method helps a ton and the food will last 2-3 full inventory and looting bag

[@nastygamenation5696]

I didn’t know kbd was considered a mole lol. Look at description.

[@mt8009]

I've done over 6.5k kbd kills hunting for pet. I've only encountered pkers maybe 10 times tops. By far the better way is using ghorrocks teleport preferably through ancients. If you want the best in slot, I brought my elite void with me by using trouvers parchment on each piece. I netted roughly 60-75 kills an hour depending on my concentration. This was in fully maxed gear outside of the void.

[@Thatotter223]

You ever get that pet

[@RizaTV]

My range is 75 now. I really want to try KBD but I am scared going there because of the pker 🥺

[@m16___]

Flicking with tbow and anti-dragon fire shield is really good also

[@SKYAThatOneGuy]

So can i get PK'd while fighting this boss? or only while traveling to it? How does death work when im at boss? If i die to boss is my gear safe for 1 hour and only lootable by me?

[@technoboof5252]

The boss room is safe. The route to the room is not. If you die in the boss room all your stuff will act as a normal 1hr death.

[@GoldfishLiberty]

I risked it and brought my dragon hunter cross bow and fireward. The second I teleported to the Lava Maze I got teleport blocked and snared. Never knew about the skull trick but shit they got me man, they fucking got me. SHIT!

[@ekorean120]

The random spin and random cheer dance in the beggining killed me

[@-Apollo-13]

Ghorrock tele ftw. First time ever going to kbd got smacked by some dude camping burning amulet tele. I enjoy the longer videos for what it’s worth, by the way. Definitely not great money but super easy and good beginner boss.

[@sadballs1883]

If I have 75 ranged,50 defence and 50 pray with the lowest Gear that you show ,IT is profitable or I should do other money making?? Srry 4 bad english xd

[@DrugsAreForWinners]

If you're doing Ranged and have the potion + shield protection, why not just turn on Rigour and not pray an overhead?

[@9632587419963258741]

Would a toxic blowpipe be an efficient range weapon?

[@virulenthunter3017]

Yeah, but you need super antfire and protect mage yo negate the dragonfire

[@Sonny005nl]

Nice guide thanks. Currently at 1500kc still no pet rip

right click the lever and it will tell you if it is occupied

I got kbd heads on my first ever kill. A bit weird, but I guess I’ll keep it till I have 1000 extra slayer reward points for the recolor

[@Tegawe]

Ya know, Im out here trying to farm bosses to get 91m for a dragon hunter crossbow. Whats the best way people killed him before dhcbow was released? i got all 80+ combat stats and i still cant stay long enough to fill a whole inventory. I typically bring a rune crossbow cause im not trying to lose a dragon c bow in the wildy

[@Tegawe]

@SimpsonGamingChannel it's going good..not max yet cause I took a break for a few months but I got six 99s now and base 80s with 1k kc in a few bosses. I'm back to playing btw

dude i killed like 259 KBD and i still HAVENT GOTTEN A KBD HEAD WTF

[@Klootviool17]

I wanted to join the clan, but I cannot talk and cannot apply? Don't know how this clan stuff works tho

[@guidegenius6003]

I honestly would highly suggest not imbuing a treasonous ring and just simply using a brimstone ring since it typically offers an additional max hit along with +4 Stab Bonus for your Fang/DHL and also doesn’t require burning any nightmare zone points. 650k Nightmare Zone Points is worth roughly 715-750k GP. Much better to just benefit from the Brimstone ring in comparison. Oh and also… Minimize your risk. Yes it’s unlikely you will get pked. But the profits you’ll be seeing from KBD are going to be pretty miniscule in comparison to risking 500-1000k. You don’t want to get pked and lose Two to Five Hours of Loot.

[@kea4185]

Great guide! I was just wondering what your thoughts were on using a blowpipe there? I'm assuming taking the extra damage isn't worth dps boost over using an ACB or DCB?

[@geoffreystewart2620]

Antidragon shield is crucial for kbd, even if you drank super antifire it's still not worth

[@geoffreystewart2620]

@Natural Power sorry you're right, protect from magic +antifire will more than suffice compared to dfw

[@Daevoz]

is blowpipe or dfs with dragon crossbow better?
