Ironman Herblore training route
Herbs come from Farming runs and Slayer drops. Hoard secondaries.
- 1–38 Quest XP (Druidic Ritual+) then attack/strength potions from farmed herbs
- 38–88 Prayer potions (38), super sets from herb runs; super antifire at 85Extreme potions start at 88 (Extreme attack)
- 88–96 Extreme potions (att 88, str 89, def 90…), hold every extreme for overloads90 unlocks The Biologist + overloads as Araxxi/Araxxor drops
- 96–106 Overloads (96). At 90+ Primal extracts are the best daily XPCrushing primal fruit into pulp needs 90 Herblore + 90 Cooking (plus Farming levels to grow the fruit); Weapon poison+++ at 100
- 106–120 Elder overloads (106) + Anachronia Dinosaur Farm produce potions120 = Herblore master cape (batch-5 overloads, 20% fewer ingredients)
Frequently asked
How many actions do I need to reach my Herblore goal?
Enter your current and target level or XP. Every row in the table divides the XP you still need by that action's XP (after your boosts) and rounds up. Load your RSN to fill in your current XP from the hiscores.
Why does the table show where materials come from?
Ironmen cannot buy from the Grand Exchange, so the useful question is not what a material costs but where you can get it yourself: a shop, a monster drop, or another skill. Each material shows the easiest source we know of, and turns amber when the skill route needs a level you do not have yet.
Which XP boosts are included?
Only always-on boosts with a single fixed number: the skilling outfit for the skill (full set) and a few tools and rings. Bonus XP, Double XP and the clan avatar are not modelled; Ironmen cannot use the clan avatar boost anyway. Use "Other boost %" for anything else.
