About Red dragonhide
"The scaly rough hide from a Red Dragon."
Red dragonhide is the second-highest dragonhide tier and a staple Crafting training material. Take it to any tanner (20 GP standard, 45 GP at Canifis) to convert it into red dragon leather for crafting red dragonhide armour.
Dropped reliably by red dragons (Brimhaven Dungeon, Forthos Dungeon) and brutal red dragons, plus various high-level bosses including Vorkath and Sarachnis.

Market Strategy
- Stable demand from Crafting trainers
- Tan margin vs leather is a reliable arbitrage when tanner cost is low
- Bot-suppressed supply at Brimhaven keeps hide price soft
Trading Tips
Buy hides → tan → sell leather for steady profit when leather margin > 20 GP
Check Red d'hide body price vs leather × 3 for a second arbitrage leg
