Dragon Trinkets are back in Treasure Hunter, this time in a two forms – chromatic and metallic. Both kinds reward you with super gains for hunting down dragons. Let’s go slaying!
From 00:00 UTC on 14th April until 23:59 UTC on 18th April, dragon trinkets can be found in Treasure Hunter chests. These stackable items sit in your necklace slot or inventory, and will be spent for awesome effects when fighting dragons of a matching category (metallic or chromatic):
- 5% chance to instakill a dragon you are fighting.
- Awarding you additional Slayer XP for slaying a dragon, without needing a Slayer task to be assigned to you. Note that the XP rewards for chromatic dragons have been doubled from last time!
- Auto-noting and auto-looting bones and bars/hides.
- Teleport to a dragon location for a cost of 5 trinkets.
With the exception of teleports, these effects will occur automatically while you’re packing trinkets. For full details, check out the Rewards and Trinket Costs section.
You can convert one kind of trinket to the other by using a right-click option. The exchange rate is 1 metallic trinket for 5 chromatics trinkets. You can convert both ways.
Below you will find tables detailing the trinket cost of activating each bonus while battling dragons.
Stock up on this useful Slayer-boosting resoruce while you can!
As an added bonus, all prismatic stars and lamps grant 25% extra XP in the following slayer and combat skills: Slayer, Constitution, Attack, Defence, Ranged, Magic, Strength, Summoning, Prayer.
