Warning: Lava dragons are in deep Wilderness (PKer risk).

Grind lava scales with pestle and mortar:

  • Base yield: 3-6 shards per scale
  • Hard Wilderness Diary: 4-9 shards per scale
  • Higher Herblore = higher average yield

Wilderness Farming:

  • Lava dragons are guaranteed drops
  • Deep wilderness (41-44 level)
  • Bring minimal risk gear
  • Bank scales or grind on-site

Scale vs Shard Economics:

  • Compare whole scale price vs (avg shards × shard price)
  • Usually profitable to grind yourself
  • Hard diary makes grinding very profitable

End Products:

  • Extended super antifire (4 shards each)
