Diamond dragon bolts (e) are diamond dragon bolts that are enchanted via the Enchant Crossbow Bolt (Diamond) spell by a player with 57 Magic. The spell enchants 10 bolts per cast, and uses 2 law runes, 1 cosmic rune, and 10 earth runes. These bolts can only be used with a dragon crossbow or better.

Special effect

Enchanted diamond dragon bolts have a 10% chance (5% chance against another player) of triggering the Armour Piercing effect. This increases the maximum damage by 15% (26% when under the effect of the Zaryte crossbow) for that hit as well as becoming a successful hit.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5] Not only is your range accuracy ignored when the spec activates, so is your range level, so if your stats are reduced (e.g. by brewing down), you will still roll with guaranteed accuracy and deal from 1 damage, to 115% of your usual max hit.^[6] A tinkling sound can be heard when this activates.

If the player has completed the hard Kandarin Diary, there is a 10% increase of the likelihood that the special effect of an enchanted bolt will occur, giving enchanted diamond bolts an overall 11% chance of the special effect activating.^[7] This effect is always active regardless if the headgear is equipped or not.

This effect rolls its chance of activation regardless of whether or not it passes an accuracy roll.
