A '''Dragon crossbow''' is an unreleased [[Dragon metal]] [[Crossbow (weapon type)|Crossbow]] that has been confirmed by Mod Mark in a Q&A to be released eventually. He stated that first, the [[combat triangle]] needs to be rebalanced. The release date is currently unknown.

{{cquote2|'''Kaiba184''' asks: Ok i really only got one question that has probably already been asked, but are you guys planning to introduce a dragon crossbow anytime soon?
'''Mod Mark''': Yes, but not until we have rebalanced the combat triangle.|Mod Mark|{{CiteDevBlog|author=Mod Fetzki|url=http://devblog.runescape.com/view_post.ws?post_id=30|title=RuneScape Content's Answers|blogdate=10 September 2009|date=22:06, May 27, 2011 (UTC)}}}}

However, in a [[2009]] Q&A, [[Jagex Moderator|Mod Fetzki]] stated that there was no dragon equipment currently [[Upcoming updates|under development]].

{{cquote2|'''lew neal960''': Will be there any new dragon armour/weapons coming out?
'''Mod Fetzki''': None currently planned; we are looking at higher levels at the moment.

Additionally in a February 2012 Q&A Mod Mark stated that the [[Chaotic Crossbow]] is the alternative to the dragon crossbow, although the chaotic crossbow degrades while dragon equipment does not, still requiring another dragon crossbow alternative. 

{{cquote2|'''Primal hilt''': Can you confirm that the Dragon crossbow is indeed in development, and if so, around when it may be released? 
'''Mod Mark''': The chaotic crossbow in dungeoneering IS the dragon crossbow in many ways apart from name.|Mod Mark|{{CiteForum |author=Mod Mark |url=http://www.webcitation.org/65WspDKrn |title=Q&A Answers 17th Feb |forum=General |postdate=17 February 2012 |notes= |date=22:30, February 17, 2012 (UTC) |name= }}}}

== Trivia ==
*Mod Mark stated to the players during the London RuneFest meet (28 January 2011) that the Dragon Crossbow was currently in "paused" development due to an unstated technical issue during development.
*In the combat beta servers, there is currently the [[Beta:Dragon_2h_crossbow|Dragon 2h crossbow]]. Also, the skilling interface for making crossbows shows both a regular one-handed dragon crossbow and an off-hand dragon crossbow, indicating that players will be able to make them at some point after the release of EoC.
