Ironman verdict

Dragon bolts (unf) is a members item. Other players trade it, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade, so you get your own. We list 5 monsters and 4 other sources for it.

The lowest-level monster that drops it is Adamant dragon (level 338), at 1/110, about one in 110 kills. The best rate is from Vorkath (level 732): 8/150, 50–100 at a time. The 4 monsters we list with a combat level range from level 338 to 741. It also comes from 4 other sources, such as Nex and Chest (Ancient Vault).

Bosses we cover that drop it: Vorkath, Phantom Muspah and The Leviathan.

It is a material in 1 recipe: Dragon bolts (84 Fletching). High Alchemy (55 Magic) turns one into 84 coins. Each cast uses a nature rune, 180 coins from a rune shop, and five fire runes that a fire staff replaces, so an alch loses about 96 coins; only alch it to clear space.
