SOLOING DAGGANOTH KINGS!!!!!!
Its extremely risky to try this, you can die and lose a lot of money. Try it at you own risk.
This guide is for solo killing, im not explaining how hybrids should come and act. In my opinion soloing as a mage is the easiest way to get one of the exclusive Dagganoth Kings drop. You need a minimum of 2 hybrids and 1 mage to kill all DKs. To kill only Rex 1 mage is more than enough. You cant kill Supreme or Prime soloing.
Requeriments:
Fremmenick Trials completed (or you have to bring 1000 coins to go to Watherbirth island). Defense level 80+ (recommended 85+) Magic level 70+ (recommended 80+) Prayer 60+ (recommended 65+) Slayer 55 Attack and strength 70+ (recommended 75+) Full guthans
Equipment:

Guthans is obrigatory Fury can be changed for glory Slayer staff is obrigatory If you believe wealth, use it. If not go with seers.
Try the best range defence and prayer bonus possible.
Inventory:

All potions 4 doses: 4 sara brews to recover hp in emergencys. 4 super antipoison (super, regular doesnt work if you want to stay a decent period). 14 super restores. 1000 magic darts. 1 teleport (any 1 click teleport, dont bring something like a dueling ring). 1 rune throwing axe (can be bought at ranging guild). 1 dragon halberd (highly recommended). 1 guthan spear.
How to reach DKs:
You need someone to open the first gate. Call a friend or pay someone in seers. I usually ask for help and pay 50k before the trip. Sometimes the person you payed will ignore you, but usually he will help.
Before you go drink 1 dose of sara and 1 dose of super restore potions. Bank the used pots and grab a 4 doses pot. Your hp will be higher than normal just as your defence. Sara brews increase your hp and defence but reduce your atttack, strenght an magic. Thats why you should bring super restores and not prayer potions.
Walk from Serrs to Relleka and go to western dock, north of market. Go to Waterbirth island talking to Jarvald. Right click and choose travel if you already did this trip before.
When you arrive im Waterbirth island just go west and stick to the road, soon you will see the entrance:

Auto retaliate and accept aid OFF, dont be dumb like me in video. Run ON.
Room number 1:

Run east. Now you wil understand why you payed/called someone. There is 3 gates, never go in the middle one. I suggest the south gate as you have very high range def. Turn the respective prayer on if you fell its necessary. Dagganoths protect from range, wallasalki protect from mage e giant rock crab protect from melee. Against wallasalkis prayer is obrigatory.
In front of gate is 2 "pads". You need to stay in one and the other person need to stay in the other. After this just choose the option "open door".

Now you can be alone. Say thanks to whoever helped you (even if you payed him) or continue the journey with your friend.
Keepruning east, equip your rune throwing axe and select the special attack. Hit ("Destroy door-support" option) the middle barricade (protecting the wallasalkis entrance) and go on.
Pay attention, there is 2 points where you can miss the right way and this is one of them. CLIMB DOWN stairs, dont select climb up.
All stairs from here will have only 1 option, dont worry about his anymore.
Protect from magic before enter (select climb down)!!!!!

Room number 2:
No secret, run to the east stair and never turn off the protect from magic prayer. Wallasalkis can be very deadly.
http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/2258/sala2mw6.png
Room number 3:
Keep running east, use the stair available. Dagganoths attacking with melee and range, i usually dont use prayer here.
http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/3973/sala3cm7.png
Room number 4:
Stair is at south. Giant rock crabs here attacking with melee. Prayer isnt required.
http://img527.imageshack.us/img527/8806/sala4jb3.png
Room number 5:
This is the second point where you can miss the right road to DKs.
Run west. You will see a stair at south wall, ignore it. Keep running west and you will reach the right stair. Before you climb down the stairs turn on protect from magic. Dagganoths attacking with melee and range, but prayer isnt required.
http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/7844/sala5aq3.png Room number 6:
Stair is at south, dont turn off prayer. Wallasalkis here and they hit hard!!!!
http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/6256/sala6qc6.png
Room number 7:
Stick with prayer on, more wallasalkis. Stairs is just in front off you.
http://img514.imageshack.us/img514/3209/sala7te2.png
Room number 8:
More wallasalkis, protect from magic on. Stairs are at south.
http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/9108/sala8xz5.png
Room number 9:
Giant rock crabs attacking with melee here. If you want to restore some run energy dont move when you reach this room. You wont be attacked. I usually use prayer because i will drink 1 super restore dose in the end, isnt required. Stairs at east.
http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/3199/sala9td9.png
Room number 10:
Dagganoths attacking with melee and range. Stair at east, in the north room.
http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/7425/sala10yd2.png
Room number 11:
2 dagganoths attacking with range, dont worry. Stairs at north.
http://img262.imageshack.us/img262/284/sala11jx8.png
Room number 12:
Go north and than east. Dagganoths attacking with melee, prayer recommended.
http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/922/sala12dd2.png
Room number 13: Almost there, stay exactly where i am. Recover you run energy to 70%+. Sometimes a range dagganoth will attack you, finish it with your spear than back to the safe spot.

Entering the dungeon of DKs:
Alright, your run is at 70%. This will be the hardest part, kill the Supreme. Protect from mage all the time, this way you dont have to worry with Prime.
If you get lucky Supreme will be in the center of this room and dont see you. Ignore him and run always in the borders to the spot exactly opost of the ladder (showed in the third time i climbed down the stairs).
Equip your dragon halberd (if you bring one) or any other weapon you have, drink a super anti, sara brew and super restore potion dose and run!!!
You cant miss the right way, try to click in the mini map as there is a lot of monsters here and you can attack one from mistake. Protect from magic always on from now.
http://img103.imageshack.us/img103/631/supreme1mc9.png From mini map you can see the ladder at east, run to it! When you are close to this stairs turn on pretect item and steel skin.
http://img103.imageshack.us/img103/6194/supreme2pt3.png
Climb down the stairs, turn on ultimate strenght and incredible reflexes and use all your specs at Supreme. If Rex comes to you climb up the stairs! Never try to kill Supreme if Rex is attacking you too. This is how you are going to kill Supreme, climb down, attack him, climb up a few seconds if Rex comes for you and climb down again. If you get lucky you can ignore Supreme as i did in third time climbing down the stairs.
If you see someone downstairs climb up and back to the safe spot.
Thats why i recommend halberd:
http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/7459/specbp6.png
This is the hardest part, Supreme can hit up to 30s. If this happens drink 2 doses of sara brew and 1 dose of super restore in this order. Keep attacking him and safe teleport always if needed!
Here is the hardest part, safe "eat" (saras) and safe telport. Even if you have a friend with you he can die trying to pick your stuff. Be carefull.
Going to the safe spot:
Never run to the middle, never!!! Turn off all prayers, except protect from magic and stick to the borders! First north, than east and finally south (watch video).

Here you can finally feel safe. Check your hp and prayer.

Congratulations, you are able to kill the pesky Rex.
Video Supreme and safe spot:

How to lure:
1- Walk here, look at mini map: Attack Rex, be carefull with Supreme to he dont see you (just happens if you move to far).
http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/2534/lure1lq6.png
Run here. When Rex comes closer run to the spot showed in mini map.
http://img294.imageshack.us/img294/1539/lure2gy2.png
Safe spots if you did it right:

Same thing. Hit, runa little east and wait till he come closer and run to the safe spot..

Look at spinolyp attacking me, thats why you bringed Guthan here.

Now is just kill some Rex luring them and healing at spynolyps.
Final considerantions:
It can be easier if you bring a suicider. He climbs down the stairs before you and attack Supreme and Prime. You go down and lure Rex. Suicider should run to stairs when hes low hp to take Supreme and Prime out of you. This way you dont need to kill Supreme, the hardest part.
Alright, suicider did his job so Prime isnt attcking you too. Should you turn off protect from mage? Well, i dont recommend it. Spinolyps atacks with ranged and magic attacks. When ranged attacks hits you will get poisoned. When magic attacks hits you it drains prayer. If another team or a lurer comes you can be koed as your prayer will be at 0 (magic attacks drained your prayer). Prime can hit up to 50s.
Always check hp and prayer, safe eat and safe tele.
Just heal in the spinolyps closer to the safe spots or Supreme can see you.
Full worlds have faster respawns, but lurers comes to full worlds, thats your choice. Im empty worlds i usually shot around 1k magic darts.
A friend can be very handy if you die, but profit will be smaller.
Thats the base, you should adequate your inventory in equipment acording with your own experience.
Why should i do all this?
Well, first because its fun. Usually you get one uf this drops each trip:
