Malevolent helm
Malevolent helm is a tier 90 members item worn in the head slot for melee, with a high alchemy value of 300,000 coins. No shop sells Malevolent helm and no monster drops it, so an Ironman makes it: it takes 91 Smithing and gives 500 Smithing XP, using 14 × Malevolent energy and Reinforcing plate.
“Armour infused with malevolent energy.”

Ironman verdict
Where the materials come from: Malevolent energy (made without a skill requirement); Reinforcing plate (sold by Bandit Duty Free for 450,000 coins). Making ten takes 140 × Malevolent energy and 10 × Reinforcing plate and gives 5,000 Smithing XP. Reaching level 91 Smithing takes 5,902,831 XP in total; the Smithing calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Smithing guide has the Ironman training route. 8 recipes use Malevolent helm, including Malevolent essence, Malevolent helm (Aurora) and Malevolent helm (Barrows). It is worn in the head slot at tier 90 as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Head list. Malevolent helm 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 300,000 coins.
