Rune ore box

Rune ore box

Rune ore box is a free-to-play item, with a high alchemy value of 1,000 coins. No shop sells Rune ore box and no monster drops it, so an Ironman makes it: it takes 50 Smithing and gives 480 Smithing XP, using Adamant ore box and 2 × Rune bar.

“A box for holding level 50 resources (runite and below).”

Ironman verdict

Where the materials come from: Adamant ore box (made with 40 Smithing); Rune bar (made with 50 Smithing). Making ten takes 10 × Adamant ore box and 20 × Rune bar and gives 4,800 Smithing XP. Reaching level 50 Smithing takes 101,333 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 Rune ore box: Orikalkum ore box. Rune ore box 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 1,000 coins.
