RuneScape: Dragonwilds Wiki & Strategy Hub
Everything you need to survive Ashenfall: crafting loops, 1–99 skill milestones, dragonscale metallurgy, and dedicated server setups.
RuneScape: Dragonwilds is developed and published by Jagex Ltd, officially launched worldwide on September 15, 2026. Set on the forgotten, dragon-overrun continent of Ashenfall, the title fuses open-world survival crafting with iconic RuneScape systems: 13 skills capped at level 99 whose levels unlock spells rather than recipes, Power Level armour split across melee, ranged and magic classes, dedicated servers for up to 6 players with crossplay, and the endgame Queen Kuldra raid closing out Kuldra's Saga.
Survive the biomes, dig up runic relics, and forge Power Level 7 Adamant plate.

Shield and cape occupy separate slots and never count toward the set. Mixing classes throws the ladder away: two melee pieces and one magic hat gives you the 2/3 melee bonus and nothing from magic.

Frequently Asked Questions: RuneScape: Dragonwilds
When did RuneScape: Dragonwilds launch?
RuneScape: Dragonwilds officially launched its 1.0 full retail version on September 15, 2026, across PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, Jagex Launcher, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2.
What is Power Level in Dragonwilds and how is it increased?
Power Level is the tier marker for your gear. Armour and the weapons you pair with it run from Power Level 2 in Brynmoor up to Power Level 9 Dragon gear from Queen Kuldra. Each region raises the ceiling, and enemy markers shift colour once you meet what the area expects. Defence itself is a flat number read per attack style, not a percentage.
How do I get Steel armour in Dragonwilds?
Steel is the Power Level 5 line and it comes from Fellhollow. Build a Blast Furnace there first - it costs 12 Granite, and once it stands iron and coal rather than granite become your limiting materials. The Steel Platebody then needs 6 Steel Bar, 6 Draconic Leather, 4 Fine Cloth, 3 Sacred Oil and 6 Vault Shard, and gives 38 melee, 32 ranged and 30 magic defence. There is no Smithing skill: all metalworking counts toward Artisan.
How does armor progression work in Dragonwilds?
Armour runs on Power Level from 2 to 9, and every piece belongs to melee, ranged or magic. Wearing three pieces of the same class - helmet, chest and legs - unlocks a set bonus at 1/3, 2/3 and 3/3. Your shield and cape sit in separate slots and never count toward it. Mixing classes throws the bonus away, so match your armour to how you actually fight.
What is the total EXP required for Level 99 in Dragonwilds?
Every one of the 13 skills caps at level 99. The familiar 13,034,431 EXP figure belongs to Old School RuneScape and does not apply here - Dragonwilds uses its own progression, and its levels mostly unlock spells rather than recipes. What actually matters is hitting the breakpoints: Runecrafting 8 for Windstep, 11 for Earth Runes, Attack 5 for Parry, Attack 11 for Tempest Shield, Mining 11 for Rocksplosion, Artisan 56 for Magical Mending.
Does RuneScape: Dragonwilds support dedicated private servers?
Yes. Install the dedicated server through SteamCMD using App ID 4019830, not the game client App ID 1374490. Set an OwnerId in DedicatedServer.ini, forward UDP port 7777, and you get up to 6 players per hosted world. Crossplay covers PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2.
