A Reanimated dragon can be spawned with the spellMaster Reanimation. Reanimation can be cast on any ensouled head within an 31x31 area where that head was dropped by a monster. This will work indefinitely, even if the ensouled head is picked up, so long as it is not put into the bank, trade screen, Grand Exchange, or price checker - in which case the reanimation spell will only work within range of the Dark Altar. The player must also find an area large enough for the dragon. Once killed, it will give the player 1,560 Prayer experience.
Players are advised to bring some sort of dragonfire protection or make use of safespots as the dragon is capable of using dragonfire.
When using a cannon on reanimated dragons at the Dark Altar, players are advised to use the image to the left for their positioning. The two yellow squares can be used to reanimate the dragon, in order to ensure two successive cannonballs to fire every full rotation. In order to effectively click both the dragons and the cannon, point the camera facing south as shown in the image.
Players not using a cannon can use all four highlighted squares to spawn a reanimated dragon.
Reanimated dragons cannot be used for slayer tasks due to the fact that multiple types of task monsters can drop the same head.
