Iron platelegs
Iron platelegs is a tier 10 free-to-play item worn in the legs slot for melee, with a high alchemy value of 225 coins. The simplest way for an Ironman to get Iron platelegs is to buy it: Corporal Boothe's Armoury in Burthorpe sells it for 280 coins, and 5 other shops stock it too.

Ironman verdict
Only one monster drops it: Animated Iron Armour (level 25), at Always (about 1 per kill). You can also make it yourself: it takes 10 Smithing and gives 120 Smithing XP, using 3 × Iron bar. Other sources include Broken armour. Making ten takes 30 × Iron bar and gives 1,200 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. One recipe uses Iron platelegs: Iron platelegs + 1. It is worn in the leg slot at tier 10 as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Legs list. Iron platelegs 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 225 coins, which is 55 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
