The Dragon sword (also commonly referred to as dragon shortsword to differentiate it from the similarly named dragon longsword) is a powerful sword that requires 60 Attack to wield. To obtain it, you must complete the Monkey Business miniquest, although wielding has no quest requirement. Unlike most swords, the dragon sword is very popular due to its balance of power, accuracy, and speed for a stabbing weapon. Its special attack has also given it a solid place in PvP, where it can deal heavy damage quickly.
