Nodon Dragonkin

Introduction

There are 4 Nodon dragonkin variants that can be killed for slayer: Nodon engineers, artificers, hunters, and guards. The Nodon dragonkin task can be assigned by Morvran or Laniakea and requires level 92 slayer. Additionally, players can kill Kerapac kerapac in Normal Mode or Hard Mode, since the slayerhelm buffs (but not Tuskas) apply to the boss.

⬥ Currently there are only methods detailed for Nodon guards and artificers. If you have a different method for Nodon hunters or engineers, please make a post in #suggestions.

Note: Dragon cluster tasks from Laniakea apply slayerhelm and Tuskas buffs to Slayer monsters at Nodon front but not kerapac. This also applies for dragonslayer, dragonslayerperk and Dragonbane weaponry.
