Players can unlock various blueprints of weapons while exploring the world of RuneScape Dragonwilds. However, Thane’s Authority is a weapon recipe that does not unlock by normal means, as it drops randomly by fighting a strong enemy in the game. While the weapons blueprint depends on the player’s RNG, it allows players to quickly chop away at an enemy’s health with powerful swings. Here’s how to unlock it.
How to Unlock the Recipe for Thane’s Authority in RuneScape Dragonwilds
To unlock Thane’s Authority, players will have to get its blueprint bydefeating a Garou Thane enemyin RuneScape Dragonwilds. It’s a high-level Garou enemy that usually spawns in Fractured Plains andthe Bloodblight Swamp areas. you may refer to the map image above, as its most common spawn locations have been marked on it.
After approaching one of these locations, players will find a Garou Thane enemy, including a group of other variants, includingHunters, Berserkers, and Druids. Make sure to quickly defeat the lesser enemies before focusing your attention on Garou Thane. It carries a large shield and is surprisingly quite passive when it comes to attacking.
Once you damage the shield enough, it will stagger Garou Thane, allowing players to quickly attack to reduce the HP before it retaliates with a counterattack. Rinse and repeat this process, and Garou Thane will easily go down. You might have to defeat a couple of Garou Thanes to obtain aVestige: A Brutal Bladeheadfrom one. Using the Vestige in your inventory will unlock the Thane’s Authority blueprint for you.
