[[File:Draconic visage detail.png|100px|left|A detailed image of the draconic visage.]]

The '''draconic visage''' is a very rare bonus drop from [[Iron dragon|iron]], [[Steel dragon|steel]], [[Mithril dragon|mithril]], [[Frost Dragon|frost]] and [[black dragon]]s, and is also dropped by [[Skeletal Wyvern]]s, [[King Black Dragon]], and the [[Queen Black Dragon]]. All creatures that drop the draconic visage are of formidable combat level. The [[Ring of Wealth]] '''does not '''affect the chances of receiving a Draconic Visage drop despite popular belief. {{CiteForum|author = Mod Emilee|url = http://www.webcitation.org/5xfaBoRyt|title = Game Update FAQ - 15/03/11|postdate = 15 March 2011|forum = Recent Updates}}

==Dragonfire Shield==
Players with level 90 [[Smithing]] can combine an [[anti-dragon shield]] with the visage to create a [[dragonfire shield]], a process that grants 2,000 Smithing [[experience]]. If players do not have 90 Smithing, they may use the [[Assist System]], or a smithing boosting item such as [[dwarven stout (m)]] to forge the [[:Category:Shields|shield]]. (Note that a mature dwarven stout only provides a +2 boost to a player's Smithing level.) If unable or unwilling to use the assist system, a dragonfire shield may also be created from a visage and an anti-dragon shield by paying [[Oziach]], an NPC from the [[Dragon Slayer]] quest, a sum of 1,250,000 [[coins]]. Depending on the prices of both the draconic visage and the dragonfire shield, it may be advisable to sell the draconic visage and buy the completed shield, rather than attempting to smith one.

==Trivia==
*The term "draconic visage" stems from ''draconic'', meaning "of or pertaining to dragons," and ''visage'', meaning "face, or image/likeness" thus literally meaning "dragon's face" or "dragon's image." In the Portuguese (Br) version of the game, this item is called "face de dragão", which means "dragon's face".
*When you receive a Draconic Visage as a drop, it appears in your [[Adventurer's log]]: "After killing a [dragon type] dragon, it dropped a draconic visage".
*The visage was temporarily added to the [[Barrows]] rewards chest on January 4, 2012 as a means of celebrating the Barrows graphical rework. It was available as possible chest loot until 11th of January 2012 when it was taken away as a reward. That week saw the obtaining of a vast amount of draconic visages, resulting in a significant crash in both its price and that of the [[Dragonfire Shield|Dragonfire Shield.]]
*During the period from January 4, 2012-January 11, 2012, when looting a Draconic Visage from the Barrows chest the Adventurer's Log reads: " After plundering the Barrows, I looted a draconic visage."
*The look of the Draconic Visage still represents how it used to be on the [[Dragonfire Shield]] before the weapons and armour rework was released.
