The corrupt dragon mace was released on 15 October 2008 along with the PvP worlds. It is the strongest mace available to non-members, but it crumbles to dust after a mere 30 minutes of wielding. It requires 60 Attack to wield.

Players can obtain this item either by trading with another player, or by receiving it as a very rare drop from killing Revenants or the Chaos Elemental.

It is the strongest f2p crush weapon outside of Daemonheim and has the highest prayer bonus of any f2p weapon. It is 40,061 coins less expensive than its scimitar counterpart, but has the same accuracy and damage, with an added prayer bonus that the scimitar lacks. This makes the mace superior against opponents without specific weakness (King Black Dragon, player killing), or those weak to crush (deadly red spider).

This item does not require the completion of Heroes' Quest.

Warning: Once equipped for longer than a few seconds, it will have the word (deg) added to its name and it becomes untradeable. Using this item in combat adds the (deg) to its name almost instantly, also rendering it untradeable. If allowed to degrade to dust, it costs 68,766 coins per hour to use.

Once it starts degrading, its alchemy value is immediately reduced to 60%. By using an external timer, players can keep track of how long the item has been used (pausing the timer when it is unequipped). Assuming use of staff of fire or equivalent, high alching it right before it degrades to dust would cost 33,524 coins per hour of use (slightly higher in practice, as it would be wise to err on the side of caution and leave a bit of spare usage time remaining). Explorer's ring 4 is helpful as it can cast High Level Alchemy for free 15 times per day and is also the strongest F2P ring in combat.

Trivia

  • When a Corrupt dragon mace is in your inventory, the spiky part of the mace is not shown (the left side of the item's icon is cut off). If the mace is noted however, you can see the missing part of the mace.
