The Granite Maul is one of Runescape DragonWilds’ most devastating weapons—but unlocking it requires conquering the “Granite Mauled” quest, battling through a treacherous dungeon, and outsmarting a brutal boss. Here’s your step-by-step walkthrough to claiming this slow-but-deadly hammer.
🔨 How to Get the Granite Maul
1. Start the Quest
- Talk to Doric (dwarven NPC near Ashen’s Watch).
- He’ll hint at a hidden dungeon beneath the watchtower.
2. Gather Infused Bark
- Chop magic trees near Ashen’s Watch to collect Infused Bark (required later for crafting).
3. Unlock the Dungeon
- Find four torch statues around the vault entrance.
- Light all four torches to open the dungeon.
⚔️ Surviving the Dungeon
Enemies & Strategy
- No puzzles—just waves of tough mobs.
- Pro Tip: Use Magical Mending (repair gear by dropping & casting).
Boss Fight: Vault Overlord
- Weakness: Ranged (Bronze Arrows work).
- Prep: Bring 200+ arrows, food, and healing potions.
- Tactic: Kite the boss while maintaining DPS.
🛠️ Crafting the Granite Maul
After defeating the Vault Overlord:
- Loot the Dwarfish Blueprint (reveals Granite Maul design).
- Return to Doric—he’ll explain you need:
- Granite Maul Head (from blueprint)
- Handle (crafted with Infused Bark)
- Leather Wrappings (from dungeon drops)
Stats & Special Attack
- Damage: 66–95 (slow but heavy hits).
- Special Move: Battering Ram (high knockback).
- Drawback: Very slow attack speed (air enchantment helps).
Verdict: Strong but niche—the Abyssal Whip is still better for DPS.
💡 Pro Tips
✔ Use Magical Mending to save repair costs.
✔ Bring a ranged weapon for the Vault Overlord.
✔ Pair with air spells to offset slow speed.
Final Thoughts
The Granite Maul is a fun, high-risk/high-reward weapon—perfect for bursting down foes but outclassed by faster options. Complete the quest, master its timing, and crush your enemies!
