Tips and Tricks for Killing Drakes

You can block the ranged attacks by drakes using the overhead Protect From Missiles protection prayer. Drakes do not require using dragonfire protection like a shield or potion to kill. However, dragonfire protection paired with Protect From Missiles will make you immune to the range damage from drakes. Alternatively, when you see a drake use its volcanic breath range attack after seven auto-attacks, you can move one tile away to avoid damage. This attack deals 6-8 damage for four hits if struck by it, so it is crucial to protect yourself as much as possible.
