Iron bar

Ironman verdict

2 monsters drop it. The easiest is Dwarf (level 9, 3/128); the best rate is Dragith Nurn (level 26), at 10/262, about one every 26 kills. You can also make it yourself: it takes 10 Smithing and gives 2 Smithing XP, using 2 × Iron ore. There is one other recipe below. Other sources include Dwarf, Box of summoning ingredients, Spirit impling and Spirit impling jar, plus 1 more listed below. Making ten takes 20 × Iron ore and gives 20 Smithing XP. Reaching level 10 Smithing takes 1,154 XP in total; the Smithing calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Smithing guide has the Ironman training route. 94 recipes use Iron bar, including Anniversary architect banner, Anniversary architect display shield and Anniversary architect display shield (crossed). Iron bar 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 35 coins, which is 24 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
