Ironman verdict
3 monsters drop it, and the best one is also the easiest: Sanguine crawler (level 43), at 9/128 (about one every 5 kills). You can also make it yourself: it takes 22 Fletching and gives 38 Fletching XP, using 10 × Iron dart tip and 10 × Feather. There are 2 other recipes below. Other sources include Uncleaned find and Barrel (Viyeldi caves). Making ten takes 100 × Iron dart tip and 100 × Feather and gives 380 Fletching XP. Reaching level 22 Fletching takes 5,624 XP in total; the Fletching calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Fletching guide has the Ironman training route. It is worn in the main-hand weapon slot at tier 10 as ranged gear; compare it with every other piece on the Main-hand weapons list. Iron dart 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 1 coins.
