RuneScape: Dragonwilds 100% guide

RuneScape: Dragonwilds has 50 Xbox achievements worth 1,000G on Xbox Series X|S and Windows. There is no achievement-bearing DLC; the Deluxe Edition Upgrade add-on is cosmetic only. The game supports online co-op, but no achievement needs another player, so the whole completion can be done solo.

This guide is verified against version 1.0.1. Make sure the game is on 1.0.1 or later before you attempt Strike True or fight Queen Kuldra; earlier builds could fail to award both.

As of 2026-10-14, no achievement is CURRENTLY CONFIRMED UNOBTAINABLE or CURRENTLY CONFIRMED DISCONTINUED on Xbox.

Achievements are not retroactive. If your character completed actions before achievements were added to the game, you may have to redo them. A character created on the 1.0 release is unaffected.

Every achievement must be triggered by your own character's action. In co-op, a teammate's kill, cast or quest step does not unlock it for you.

Protect your save. Around launch, some console players lost worlds or had characters corrupted, mainly after disconnecting, putting the console to sleep mid-session, or editing character appearance. Fixes are in, but Jagex says a very small number of residual cases are still being investigated. Always exit to the main menu before closing the game or putting the console to sleep, and do not rely on Quick Resume to hold a live session. This may reduce exposure to session-related save problems, but it cannot guarantee save safety.

Tracked Xbox completions currently take roughly 150 to 200 hours. A fully legitimate solo run that levels every skill to 99 at a relaxed pace can take considerably longer, mostly because of Fishing and Runecrafting.

One character and one world are enough. There are no difficulty achievements, mutually exclusive ending achievements, or New Game+ achievements. There is no point of no return: after Regicide you keep playing normally, and every secondary quest, Agility course and skill stays available.

Eleven achievements are hidden on Xbox:

• the five boss kills
• the five regional secondary-quest achievements
• Doric's Fire Fried Chicken

Most of the completion is reaching Level 99 in all twelve achievement-bearing skills. Each skill needs 1,000,000 XP for Level 99, and the last few levels make up about half of that. Do not stop normal progression to grind these early. Finish the story, regional secondary quests, spell and skill challenges and Agility courses first, so all of that experience counts toward Level 99.

The main story route is:

• Temple Woods and Brynmoor
• Ghornfell
• Fellhollow
• Dowdun Reach
• Umbral Sands
• Scorned Wilderness

Complete each region's three-secondary-quest achievement while you are already working through that region. No secondary quest is missable, and all of them stay available after the story. Do not count on the journal to list secondary quests you have not started yet; each region section names where its recommended quests begin. The journal's Completed Quests tab lists everything you have finished, so use it to check which regional sets are complete.

There are six Agility courses. Each has a fixed Agility level requirement and, for the later courses, movement abilities you must have unlocked. Earn Gold on each as you meet its requirements. Course icons only appear on the map when you get close, so each course's starting landmark is listed in Regional Gold Medal Sweep.

Several achievements refer to specific skill spells or abilities, and each one unlocks at a fixed skill level. Skill levels are not gated by story progress. You will often arrive in a region below the level a setup needs; when that happens, leave it for the Level-Gated Setup Reminders in Level 99 Cleanup. Unlock the named spell or ability first, prepare the setup, then meet every part of the description in the same action where required.

Older Early Access guides may carry outdated skill levels. Magical Mending moved to Artisan Level 56 and Runes to Rune Essence moved to Runecrafting Level 61 for version 1.0. This route uses the current requirements.

The tutorial chain is First Steps, Getting Started, Ratcatcher and Rune Mysteries, all in Temple Woods. Follow it normally, and gather everything the tutorial asks for rather than rushing past basic resource nodes, because the opening sequence naturally unlocks several achievements.

Continue Getting Started and the early Dragon Slayer setup until the game has you establish a proper shelter. Keep this first base functional because you will soon want farming plots, cooking facilities, storage, and room for several achievement setups.

Brynmoor has five secondary quests:

• Growing Pains
• Shrimp Catcher
• Restless Ghosts
• Goblin Diplomacy
• Highlighting the Problem

Growing Pains and Shrimp Catcher are tutorial-type secondary quests that introduce Farming and Fishing. Do them anyway, because both skills have immediate achievements and eventually need Level 99. It is not confirmed whether these two count toward Helping Around the Farm.

Treat Restless Ghosts, Goblin Diplomacy and Highlighting the Problem as your counted set. Do not count on the journal to show a secondary quest before you start it. Here is where each one begins:

• Restless Ghosts — interact with the Crumbling Well in the ruined part of Bramblemead Village, north-west of the Wise Old Man. Available after First Steps. The ghosts only appear between sunset and sunrise, and the route needs Woodcutting 20 and an axe for thorny vines, plus Windstep or building materials to cross a gap. Starting this quest also gives you the ghostspeak amulet, which a Fellhollow quest needs later.
• Goblin Diplomacy — speak to Zanik on the ridge in Bramblemead Valley overlooking the Whispering Swamp. Available after Rune Mysteries. One amulet is held by a garou druid deep in the Whispering Swamp; its attacks are poison-heavy, so fight it at range.
• Highlighting the Problem — interact with the wizard statue in the Runecrafting Guild on the cliffs directly north of Temple Woods. Available after First Steps. The statue's password is found inside the Thishepen Kara vault, and Windstep is needed for the vault and the tower pedestals.

Growing Pains starts when you first craft a wooden watering can or spade, and Shrimp Catcher when you first craft a coarse net. Both send you to the Wise Old Man in Bramblemead Valley.

Several ability-based achievements become possible while you are still around Brynmoor and Ghornfell. Do each one as soon as its unlock level is reached, rather than saving them all for the end.

Advance Dragon Slayer into Ghornfell and begin working through the Fractured Plains and surrounding areas.

Pick up Ghornfell secondary quests now rather than rushing to the boss. Ghornfell has eight:

• Granite Mauled
• Heartstrings
• Dog Days
• Cook's Assistant
• Animal Magnetism
• A Room With A Garou
• A Melody Remembered
• The Great Body Robbery

Granite Mauled, Heartstrings and Dog Days are a practical three:

• Granite Mauled — speak to Doric on a ruined lookout with a broken bridge, south of Ashien's Watch in the north-east Fractured Plains. The vault boss uses poison gas, so bring antipoison.
• Heartstrings — interact with the glowing memorial stone beside a large blue-leaved tree on top of the hill in the Fractured Plains, above the first Fractured Plains dungeon. Use Windstep to reach it. Keep a free inventory slot for the Crystal Bow reward, or the quest will not complete.
• Dog Days — speak to Vannaka beneath a cliff in the Stormtouched Highlands. It requires killing the Garou King in the north-west castle.

If one of these stalls, Cook's Assistant starts with Slopfinger at the south-west corner of the Fractured Plains, and Animal Magnetism with Manktongue in a ruined cabin in the south-west Fractured Plains. For Animal Magnetism, talk to Manktongue a second time after reading the bottle message, or the ingredient pickups will not work.

Keep levelling your combat skills naturally. Rotate melee, ranged and magic so no combat style falls far behind, because all three eventually need Level 99.

Agility gains experience passively while you run on foot. Mounted travel gives no Agility experience at all, so travel on foot when the extra time is reasonable. Mounts are still worth using when they save a lot of time.

Each course has a fixed Agility level requirement, and the later courses also need specific movement abilities. Double Jump unlocks at Agility 10 and Air Dash at Agility 32. Run each course only once you meet its requirements. Every course's location, requirements and medal times are listed in Regional Gold Medal Sweep.

Prepare your best current armor, food, ranged supplies, runes, and a nearby respawn point before the Dragon Slayer boss sequence.

Before committing fully to Fellhollow, finish three Ghornfell secondary quests if you have not already done so.

After Dragon Slayer, follow Withering Heights into Fellhollow.

Fellhollow introduces stronger enemies and better resources, so replace obsolete equipment instead of hoarding low-tier gear indefinitely. Continue gathering, cooking, farming, Runecrafting, and Construction as part of normal progression because every resource skill ultimately has a Level 99 achievement.

Pick up Fellhollow secondary quests as you meet their quest givers. Fellhollow has eight:

• Even More Restless Ghosts
• The Wild Hunt
• Things That Go Boom In The Night
• Seeking Salvation
• Doric's Quest
• Letters for the Dead
• What Remains is Written
• Mirror Mirror

Even More Restless Ghosts, The Wild Hunt and Things That Go Boom In The Night are a practical set during this stage. All need Withering Heights started so you can reach Fellhollow:

• Even More Restless Ghosts — speak to Zanik at the three standing stones in the ruins east of Cathan, Bleakfields Valley. You must have started Restless Ghosts in Brynmoor (for the ghostspeak amulet) and disabled all four god shrines in Withering Heights. You will need to build a small enclosed house around a ghost and carry an iron or better pickaxe.
• The Wild Hunt — speak to Vannaka west of Cathan in Bleakfields Valley. Kill three nature spirits, which are white glowing terrorbirds in the willow groves.
• Things That Go Boom In The Night — speak to Vannaka again after finishing The Wild Hunt, which is required. Attack each spectral chinchompa immediately; they vanish quickly and can take up to ten in-game days to respawn.

If you need a substitute, Seeking Salvation starts with Doric in a cave ruin east of the Lake of Lost Souls. Avoid relying on Doric's Quest, which follows Seeking Salvation and needs a rare recipe drop.

Complete the Withering Heights objectives until the confrontation with Imaru.

Finish three Fellhollow secondary quests before moving your attention to Dowdun Reach.

Continue the primary story through Black Knight's Fortress and establish safe travel through Dowdun Reach.

Dowdun Reach has only three secondary quests, Biohazard, Wanted! and What's Theirs is Mine!, and the achievement needs all three. There is no substitute, so complete each one as it becomes available rather than leaving one behind. All three need Black Knight's Fortress started:

• Biohazard — speak to Zanik beneath The Approach, or pick up the corrupted essence sample dropped by any corrupted raven in Dowdun Reach. You need ten samples from ravens around the region, and the finale is on the Grand Hall roof, which needs Windstep.
• Wanted! — speak to Vannaka at the tent in front of The Library, just after you enter Dowdun Reach. It has three boss fights you can do in any order: the Rat Master in The Menagerie, the Hound Master in The Garrison dungeons and the Summoner in the Cathedral crypts. If progress seems stuck, check your quest inventory for the three journal pages.
• What's Theirs is Mine! — speak to Doric in The Nexus, next to the Dreaming Stone. Visit the Cathedral nodestone, the Garrison nodestone and then the Demon Gate, in that order.

Progress Black Knight's Fortress until the regional boss encounter. Upgrade equipment before entering rather than trying to force the fight in under-tier gear.

Before entering Umbral Sands, confirm that all three Dowdun Reach secondary quests have been completed.

After Black Knight's Fortress, continue into Umbral Sands and begin Icthlarin's Little Helper.

Establish reliable water, food, storage, and a convenient travel point before doing a full regional sweep. The desert is also where several later skill requirements become practical, so continue harvesting the higher-tier resources you encounter instead of returning to low-tier zones for routine experience.

Umbral Sands has four secondary quests:

• Contact! — speak to the Avisk Crystal in the Dunes of Uzzer. Bring a shovel, a pickaxe and 4 vault shards.
• Brink of Extinction — speak to Zi at The Burning Spire, south-east of the Sinking Pyramid. It needs 3 raw beltfish and a cactus steak.
• Mapping The Sands I — speak to Anamcara next to the pond in Alcarrid Camp.
• Mapping The Sands II — speak to Anamcara again after Mapping The Sands I is complete.

All four need partial progress in Icthlarin's Little Helper. Contact!, Brink of Extinction and Mapping The Sands I make a practical set. Mapping The Sands II is the only substitute.

Continue Icthlarin's Little Helper through the Umbral Sands boss sequence in the Fight Caves.

Older reports of Fuzan getting stuck at zero health are PATCHED / NO LONGER A CURRENT ISSUE on the current version.

Finish the three qualifying desert secondary quests before advancing toward the final region.

By this stage most specialist spells and recipes are either available or within reach. Several are available much earlier than this section. Do each one as soon as its level is reached, and clear any that remain before you start the Level 99 cleanup.

There are six Agility courses, and Medal Collector needs Gold on all of them.

Course icons only appear on your map once you get close to a course, so exploring a region does not reveal its course. Each course starts at a flagged station. Head for the landmark below and the icon will appear as you approach.

• Chasm Dash — Brynmoor, beside the large lake in Bramblemead Valley close to Temple Woods. Agility 1. Gold 0:57, Silver 1:05, Bronze 1:15.
• Fractured Ruins — Ghornfell, in the Fractured Plains just beside the exit from the Whispering Swamp. Agility 15, plus Windstep and Double Jump. Gold 0:56, Silver 1:10, Bronze 1:30.
• Thunder Assault — Ghornfell, in the Stormtouched Highlands on high ground near the giant dragon remains. Agility 15, plus Windstep and Double Jump. Gold 1:06, Silver 1:18, Bronze 1:45.
• Grave Run — Fellhollow, up on an elevated rock face near the Dragon's Run area. Agility 30, plus Windstep and Double Jump. Gold 1:07, Silver 1:20, Bronze 2:00.
• Tower Climb — Dowdun Reach, on the south side of The Library. Agility 51, plus Windstep, Double Jump and Air Dash. Gold 1:09, Silver 1:20, Bronze 2:00.
• Lava Fields — Umbral Sands, around The Burning Spire at the edge of its red lava area. Agility 65, plus Double Jump and Air Dash. Gold 1:05, Silver 1:15, Bronze 1:45.

If you cannot spot a station at its landmark, circle the surrounding area slowly until its map icon appears.

Double Jump unlocks at Agility 10 and Air Dash at Agility 32.

Hit the course orbs in order. Monsters do not attack on courses. Spells and jumps are allowed, but building is not.

The first clear at each medal tier gives far more experience than a repeat run. A first-time reward stays claimable until you actually reach that tier, so there is nothing to lose by learning a course slowly before pushing for Gold.

Lava Fields needs Agility 65, which most players will not have when they first reach Umbral Sands. If you are not there yet, leave it for the Level-Gated Setup Reminders in Level 99 Cleanup.

For each course, learn the route first and then optimize for Gold.

Complete Icthlarin's Little Helper. Then travel to the Dragon Gate, north-west of Velgar's Rise in the north-western Fractured Plains, to begin Regicide and enter the Scorned Wilderness.

The Scorned Wilderness is a repeatable raid region rather than a normal open region. Each completed run returns you to Rasthin's Rest, the raid hub, and the next run starts again in Dragontail Vines. Finishing Regicide does not end your save: you keep playing afterwards with every secondary quest, Agility course and skill still available.

Rasthin's Rest is the only place in the Scorned Wilderness where you can build. Set up a small base there with a bed, crafting and repair stations, and storage, and place a lodestone near Commander Zilyana. Speaking to Zilyana starts a new raid run or resumes your current one. You cannot build anything inside the raid itself, so bring your strongest equipment, several combat styles, strong healing and buff food, potions, runes, arrows and repair supplies.

The raid runs through four areas: Dragontail Vines, Fragments of Ghornfell, Shattered Stronghold and Cataclysm Keep. A Zilyana Teleporter sits at the end of each area as an extraction point. Using one takes you back to Rasthin's Rest to repair and restock without losing raid progress, and Zilyana then returns you to the latest extraction point you reached. If you die in the raid, your gravestone appears near Zilyana rather than where you fell.

The raid's core mechanic is elemental attunement:

• Siphon an element from a Crystallised Anima shard or a coloured anima vent, or kill enemies marked with an element symbol, until your charge meter fills. A full meter gives you about thirty seconds of that element.
• Coloured barriers only let you through while you hold the matching element.
• Anima Pylons are charged by interacting with them while attuned to their element. Some pylons need two elements in turn.
• Killing three attuned enemies in quick succession activates an Anima Orb Dispenser. Carry the orb it produces to an empty pylon, slot it in, then attune and charge that pylon.

The final gate in Cataclysm Keep needs all four pylons charged and the water pylon's valve routing power to the pressure pads. Then step on the pads in this order: Air, Water, Earth, Fire. The order comes from Rasthin's Riddle of Faith on the wall of that room. If you stepped on pads in the wrong order, step on all of them to reset, then try again.

There is no secondary-quest achievement for the Scorned Wilderness, so do not hold up the final route looking for one.

Work through Regicide's extraction and pylon objectives until the final Queen Kuldra encounter.

Make sure the game is on version 1.0.1 or later before this fight.

Kuldra cannot be damaged directly, so do not waste supplies attacking her. The fight has four phases:

• Phases 1 to 3: gather anima from vents, Crystallised Anima, or the elemental Dragon Hatchlings. Charge the pylons, make Anima Orbs at the dispenser, and load them into the Anima Cannon. Fire it at Kuldra until the phase ends, roughly six hits each time. Dodge her heads' beam, poison, fireball, ice and lightning attacks while you work, and use Zilyana's barrier between phases.
• Phase 4: once Kuldra is stunned, a bridge forms to her main head. Choose Enter at its mouth. Inside, attack her Heart until it reaches zero while avoiding the Heartworms and poison pools.

The remaining completion is dominated by twelve Level 99 achievements.

Each skill needs 1,000,000 XP for Level 99. For scale, Level 50 is 40,594 XP and Level 95 is 447,689 XP, so the last four levels are more than half the total. There is no story or region gate on any level. The old caps of 50, or 65 for Farming, were Early Access limits that have been removed. Experience is never lost on death, in normal or hard mode. Skill progress belongs to your character, and co-op does not share experience; each player earns it from their own actions.

Do not treat these as twelve isolated grinds if you still have useful world tasks remaining. Combine compatible work wherever possible:

• Gather Mining and Woodcutting materials before Artisan and Construction crafting sessions.
• Turn gathered food ingredients into Cooking experience rather than discarding them.
• Maintain crops while working on nearby skills.
• Fish in batches that also feed Cooking.
• Craft useful runes while preparing Magic training.
• Alternate Attack, Magic, and Ranged during combat-resource farming.
• Travel on foot when the lost travel time is reasonable so Agility continues progressing.

Use the available experience boosts for whichever skill you are training:

• A Focused potion for that skill gives +15%, and the Focused II version gives +30%, for 10 minutes.
• Food with the Knowledgable Nourishment perk gives +10% to all skills.
• An Inspiring Ring for that skill gives +5%.
• One potion buff and one food buff stack together.
• There are no experience lamps and no rested experience.
• Fixed-experience skill books, such as Fishing Volume 2, drop in later regions. Use them on the skills you find slowest.

The Level 99 achievements are character skill-level checks. Each unlocks when that individual skill reaches Level 99.

Any setup achievement you skipped for level reasons can be finished here as soon as its skill reaches the level:

• No Runefunds!: at Runecrafting 61, drop spare runes on the ground and cast Runes to Rune Essence on them.
• Frenzied: Fishing Frenzy (Fishing 10) on a spot, then Fishnado (Fishing 55) on that same frenzied spot.
• Mend it Like...: Magical Mending at Artisan 56 on three dropped damaged items.
• Medal Collector: Lava Fields Gold at Agility 65, plus Tower Climb at Agility 51 if you have not done it yet.
• Two Misthalin Stars: an Iconic Meal at Cooking 36 on a Cooking Range.
• Gotta Patch 'Em All: 24 grown plots, one Uproot, from Farming 15.
• Master Huntsman: Snare (Ranged 12) and an enhanced arrow (Ranged 15 or higher).
• Eye can see my house from here!: place a building piece while viewing through Eye of Oculus (Construction 11); scouting with the Eye alone does not count.

Before considering the completion finished, verify the Xbox list against these groups:

• Five regional three-secondary-quest achievements are complete.
• Velgar, Imaru, Black Knight Titan, Fuzan, and Queen Kuldra have all been defeated.
• All six Agility courses show Gold.
• Every specialist spell and setup achievement has unlocked.
• Attack, Magic, Ranged, Mining, Woodcutting, Artisan, Construction, Cooking, Runecrafting, Farming, Fishing, and Agility are all Level 99.

If a setup achievement is still locked, recreate its actual trigger rather than just repeating the prerequisite. The most common mistakes are:

• using several casts where one cast is required
• shooting the enhanced arrow before the target is trapped in the Snare
• the Confused enemy not landing the killing blow while still confused
• the three buffs not being active at the same time
• not placing the construction piece while Eye of Oculus is active

If a boss achievement is missing, update the game, then re-fight the boss. The Scorned Wilderness raid can be repeated.

With all 50 requirements complete, the Xbox list is 50/50 achievements for 1,000G.
