Ironman verdict
Where the materials come from: Draconic visage (dropped by Laboratory slime (level 90)). Making ten takes 10 × Anti-dragon shield and 10 × Draconic visage and gives 20,000 Smithing XP. Reaching level 90 Smithing takes 5,346,332 XP in total; the Smithing calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Smithing guide has the Ironman training route. 2 recipes use Dragonfire ward, including Augmented dragonfire ward and Dragonfire shield. It is worn in the shields and off-hand slot at tier 70 as magic gear; compare it with every other piece on the Shields and off-hands list. Dragonfire ward 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 1,200,000 coins.
