The '''Primal rapier''' is a weapon used in the [[Dungeoneering]] skill and as such cannot be taken out of [[Daemonheim]]. It requires 99 [[Attack]] to wield.
This item cannot be made using the [[Smithing]] skill, and can only be obtained as a drop from [[Har'Lakk the Riftsplitter]].

The stab bonus of a primal rapier is 2 lower than a [[Zamorakian spear]] and the slash bonus is same as a [[dragon scimitar]] but the strength bonus surpasses a [[chaotic rapier]] by 8. It should be noted that the difference between a primal rapier and a [[promethium rapier]] is unusually small, especially noticeable for the strength bonus. A primal rapier only beats the promethium rapier by 2 in strength bonus, while the latter beats a [[Gorgonite rapier]] by 11, which in turn beats a [[Katagon rapier]] by 17, and so on.

==Trivia==
*While rapiers made of other metals have partial [[wikipedia:Ricasso|ricassos]], the Primal rapier does not and instead sports a full knuckle guard.
*The [[Chaotic rapier]], surprisingly, is more accurate than the Primal rapier, but has a lower strength bonus.
*The Primal rapier is a good choice of bind if one wants a 1-handed weapon, due to its ability to dispose of low defence monsters quickly while still having the option for an off-hand item. However, as monsters in [[Daemonheim]] usually have high defence, the [[Primal battleaxe]] is generally preferred as a 1-handed bind.
*While this rapier by itself is rather inaccurate, when paired with accuracy-increasing binds, such as a [[Golden precision bracelet]] and [[Blood necklace]], as well as boosts from [[Turmoil]] or [[Overload]], its accuracy changes much more than a more accurate weapon, such as a [[Primal 2h sword]], would with the same boosts, making this weapon plausible as a melee bind.
*When trying to equip a Primal Rapier without the required 99 Attack level, the message "You need Attack 99 or higher to wield that item" appears. This is overly wordy, as having an Attack level higher than 99 is impossible without boosting, but the boost will not affect the ability to wield the Rapier.
