Polypore staff

Polypore staff is a tier 75 members two-handed weapon for Magic, with a high alchemy value of 120,000 coins. No shop sells Polypore staff and no monster drops it, so an Ironman makes it: it takes 80 Farming and gives 300 Farming XP, using Polypore stick, 3000 × Polypore spore and 15000 × Fire rune.

“Imbued with power from the fungi growing on it.”

Ironman verdict

Where the materials come from: Polypore stick (dropped by Ganodermic beast (level 112)); Polypore spore (dropped by Fungal rodent (level 26)); Fire rune (sold by Aubury's Rune Shop for 17 coins). Making ten takes 10 × Polypore stick, 30,000 × Polypore spore and 150,000 × Fire rune and gives 3,000 Farming XP. Reaching level 80 Farming takes 1,986,068 XP in total; the Farming calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Farming guide has the Ironman training route. One recipe uses Polypore staff: Augmented polypore staff. It is worn in the two-handed weapon slot at tier 75 as magic gear; compare it with every other piece on the Two-handed weapons list. It is a tier 75 step on our Magic gear ladder, where the Ironman route to it is: Polypore Dungeon (polypore stick drop + spores; 80 Farming to make, 75 Magic to wield). Polypore staff 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 120,000 coins.
