Ironman verdict

Where the materials come from: Tectonic mask (made with 91 Runecrafting). Reaching level 99 Runecrafting takes 13,034,431 XP in total; the Runecrafting calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Runecrafting guide has the Ironman training route. One recipe uses Tectonic essence: Pearlescent substrate (unimbued). Tectonic essence 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.
