Ironman verdict
4 monsters drop it. The easiest is Red dragon (level 84, 3/256); the best rate is Commander Zilyana (level 596), at 4/128, about 1.2 per kill. You can also make it yourself: it takes 81 Fletching and gives 188 Fletching XP, using 10 × Rune dart tip and 10 × Feather. There are 2 other recipes below. Other sources include Ninja impling and Ninja impling jar. Making ten takes 100 × Rune dart tip and 100 × Feather and gives 1,880 Fletching XP. Reaching level 81 Fletching takes 2,192,818 XP in total; the Fletching calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Fletching guide has the Ironman training route. It is worn in the main-hand weapon slot at tier 50 as ranged gear; compare it with every other piece on the Main-hand weapons list. Rune dart 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 210 coins, which is 140 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
