Ironman verdict
You can also make it yourself: it takes 30 Smithing and gives 240 Smithing XP, using 2 × Mithril bar. Other sources include Former vampyre. Where the materials come from: Mithril bar (made with 30 Smithing). Making ten takes 20 × Mithril bar and gives 2,400 Smithing XP. Reaching level 30 Smithing takes 13,363 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 Mithril square shield: Mithril square shield + 1. It is worn in the shields and off-hand slot at tier 30 as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Shields and off-hands list. Mithril square shield 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 300 coins, which is 4,710 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
