Ironman verdict
You can also make it yourself: it takes 60 Herblore, using Sacred clay (class 4). Where the materials come from: Sacred clay (class 4) (from Tree (Stealing Creation)). Reaching level 60 Herblore takes 273,742 XP in total; the Herblore calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Herblore guide has the Ironman training route. One recipe uses Defence potion (4): Grand defence potion (6). Defence potion (4) is available on free-to-play worlds too. 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 660 coins.
