Crafting dragonhide bodies is a complex but rewarding skill in OSRS. This guide will take you through the steps required to make these powerful armor pieces. To begin, you’ll need to gather the necessary materials and ensure you have the required crafting level. Let’s dive into the details.
Level Requirements
To craft dragonhide bodies, you’ll need a certain crafting level:
- Blue Dragonhide Body: Requires 71 Crafting.
- Red Dragonhide Body: Requires 77 Crafting.
- Black Dragonhide Body: Requires 84 Crafting.
Ensure your crafting level matches or exceeds the requirements for the specific dragonhide body you want to craft.
Gathering Materials
The first step in crafting dragonhide bodies is to gather the materials you’ll need. You’ll require dragonhide, thread, and a needle. Dragonhide can be obtained by killing various dragons throughout the game, with different colors of dragonhide corresponding to different dragons. Blue dragons, for instance, drop blue dragonhide.
Tanning the Dragonhide
Once you have obtained dragonhide, it needs to be tanned to prepare it for crafting. To do this, visit a tanner in a major city. Pay a fee to have the dragonhide tanned into dragon leather. The cost of tanning varies depending on the color of the dragonhide.
Thread and Needle
In addition to dragon leather, you’ll need thread and a needle. Threads can be purchased from crafting shops, such as the one in Al Kharid. Needles are readily available in most crafting stores and are also sold by crafting suppliers.
Creating the Dragonhide Body
Now that you have all the necessary materials, it’s time to craft your dragonhide body. Follow these steps:
- Use the Dragon Leather: Right-click on the dragon leather in your inventory and select the option to “Craft.” This will bring up the crafting menu.
- Select Dragonhide Bodies: In the crafting menu, select “Dragonhide Bodies” as the item you want to create.
- Choose the Dragonhide: Next, choose the type of dragonhide you want to craft into a body. This will determine the color and stats of the final armor piece.
- Crafting: Click on the “Craft” button, and your character will begin crafting the dragonhide body.
