Ranged praesulic essence is an item used to make elite sirenic armour and elite Dracolich armour, and is created by breaking down Pernix equipment at a Dragonkin anvil, a process which requires level 99 Crafting. Accessing the Dragon Forge anvil requires the completion of While Guthix Sleeps. This process is completely different from disassembly, and disassembling Pernix equipment will not grant any essence.
Breaking down an augmented piece of Pernix equipment into Praesulic essence does not return any of the gizmos installed on that piece of augmented equipment nor award any invention experience. Breaking down a degraded piece of Pernix equipment will return less praesulic essence than an augmented/fully charged piece.
The table listed below shows the amount of essence that is obtained from an unworn piece of Pernix equipment.
