Ironman verdict

You can also make it yourself: it needs no skill level, using Dagannoth hide, Rock-shell chunk and 5000 × Coins. Other sources include Rhazien. Where the materials come from: Dagannoth hide (dropped by Dagannoth (level 78)); Rock-shell chunk (dropped by Giant Rock Crab (level 75)); Coins (sold by Spy Club for 1 penguin points). One recipe uses Rock-shell helm: Superior rock-shell helm. It is worn in the head slot at tier 50 as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Head list. Rock-shell 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 21,120 coins.
