Warning! Beware of Vorkath's acid pool quickfire barrage, insta-kill vertical dragonfire, and suicide spawn as each of these attacks can kill players almost immediately. Vorkath is considered a blue dragon and zombie for the purpose of a Slayer task. As Vorkath is also undead, the Salve amulet and its variants will work on him. However, it does not stack with the Slayer helmet. Rings of recoil do not inflict damage on Vorkath.

Attacks

Vorkath uses several different attack styles during the fight:

  • Melee attack: If players are in range, he swipes at the player with his wings/claws (slash-based).
  • Magic attack: Launches a bright-blue projectile at the player that hits up to 30 damage. Protect from Magic completely negates damage.
  • Ranged attack: Launches a spiked ball at the player that hits up to 32 damage. Protect from Missiles blocks this attack. This style has been confirmed to occur more frequently than the magic attack when not in melee range. If in melee range, magic attack is slightly more frequent.
  • Dragonfire: Vorkath's dragonfire has multiple variants, similar to the King Black Dragon's. The damage dealt by the dragonfire is dependent on the number of layers of dragonfire protection used by the player. Full damage mitigation requires a super antifire potion along with a dragonfire protection shield. Players also typically use a regular antifire potion with a dragonfire protection shield, or a super antifire potion along with the protect from magic prayer; both combinations reduce the max hits of the attacks to 10.
    • Normal Dragonfire: Only deals damage.
    • Venom Dragonfire: Has a chance to inflict the venom status if not venom immune.
    • Pink Dragonfire: Disables all prayers upon impact. This special effect can not be mitigated.
  • High-damage Dragonfire: Vertically launched dragonfire at the player's position when cast. This will greatly damage the player if they are directly struck by it, often lethally; half the damage is taken if adjacent.
