Death guard (tier 20)
Death guard (tier 20) is a tier 20 members main-hand weapon for Necromancy, with a high alchemy value of 150 coins. No shop sells Death guard (tier 20) and no monster drops it, so an Ironman makes it: it takes 15 smithing and gives 40 smithing XP, using Death guard (tier 10) and Lesser ensouled bar.
“A necromancer armguard.”

Ironman verdict
Where the materials come from: Death guard (tier 10) (sold by Buried Bargains for 60 coins); Lesser ensouled bar (sold by Buried Bargains for 1 coins). Making ten takes 10 × Death guard (tier 10) and 10 × Lesser ensouled bar and gives 400 smithing XP. Reaching level 15 Smithing takes 2,411 XP in total; the Smithing calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Smithing guide has the Ironman training route. One recipe uses Death guard (tier 20): Death guard (tier 30). It is worn in the main-hand weapon slot at tier 20 as necromancy gear; compare it with every other piece on the Main-hand weapons list. Death guard (tier 20) is members-only. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 150 coins.
