Ironman verdict

You can also make it yourself: it takes 60 Magic and gives 70 Magic XP, using Unpowered orb, 3 × Cosmic rune and 30 × Earth rune. Other sources include Brazier (Guthixian temple) and Chest (Wizards' Guild). Where the materials come from: Unpowered orb (made with 46 Crafting); Cosmic rune (sold by Lundail's Arena-side Rune Shop for 232 coins); Earth rune (sold by Aubury's Rune Shop for 17 coins). Making ten takes 10 × Unpowered orb, 30 × Cosmic rune and 300 × Earth rune and gives 700 Magic XP. Reaching level 60 Magic takes 273,742 XP in total; the Magic calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Magic guide has the Ironman training route. 2 recipes use Earth orb, including Earth battlestaff and Earth key. Earth orb 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 180 coins.
