Steel warhammer

Steel warhammer is a tier 20 free-to-play main-hand weapon for melee, with a high alchemy value of 200 coins. The simplest way for an Ironman to get Steel warhammer is to buy it: Vigr's Warhammers in Keldagrim sells it for 3,340 coins, and 2 other shops stock it too.

Ironman verdict

5 monsters drop it. The easiest is Warrior (Rellekka) (level 39, 1/256); the best rate is Trade floor guard (level 70), at 3/256, about one every 85 kills. You can also make it yourself: it takes 20 Smithing and gives 150 Smithing XP, using 2 × Steel bar. Making ten takes 20 × Steel bar and gives 1,500 Smithing XP. Reaching level 20 Smithing takes 4,470 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 Steel warhammer: Steel warhammer + 1. It is worn in the main-hand weapon slot at tier 20 as melee gear; compare it with every other piece on the Main-hand weapons list. Steel warhammer 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 200 coins, which is 3,140 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
