 I can't believe on the gear topic how negative feedback their was about green dragon killing (Check pages 2 + 3).
So I went out, with complete shit stats + gear + am now proving to you, its profitable no matter what method you use.
Comments like this really got me frustrated.

And I get hit ~10-15HP every dragon. Could do with some tips.

Its normally the Melee attack that does most of the damage.


Ok.
You complain.
I'll show you what I did.

My gear -

My invy - Ignore pots, they're to lower stats.

My stats - All WG members have higher or equal to this
Note: To compensate for high defence, I ate 1 lobster per kill.
Note above that keanu said he loses 10-15hp per dragon.
1 lobster per kill will compensate for that

Cost of invy that was used -

Ending invy -

Profit overall ~ 75k
Time taken ~ 20 mins.
Gp/hr ~ 225k

Honestly guys.
No matter what stats you have green dragons is profitable.
Now stop being trolls + go make those sets.

 this brings to point.

poverty isn't because you have no money but rather a lack of knowledge.

 You DO have 117 defence in that picture, but I guess that is just timing of the picture. <--- I misunderstood the note. My bad.

I never doubt green dragons. I just do not have to worry about money nowadays.

 Its important to note that the Gear Maths has used there is the *absolute* minimum I would ever epxect to see someone in WG use. Hell, I'm sure everyone can afford some sort of dragon wep (be it a Dragon Long or Scimmy) and I would hope most have other accessories like a Neitz/Zerker Helmet & D boots.

Also adding a Beast of Burden would increase profit.

The point is, that this clearly shows an easy way to make a minimum of 1 and a half rune sets per hour from essentailly no investment.

 Went from 60-70 Prayer with Green Drags back in the day, 1.5k Drags. It's one of the most boring things I've ever done, but nice money.

How would you guys get to the spot? Run up?

I used Ancient Tele there and ran down, was like 5 seconds, used Glory to tele back.

Good fun.

 Big problem is that a lot of people do green drags so it crowded. Other than than your right its not all that difficult.
