There are two main parts to smithing in RuneScape: making the metal bars, and smithing them into useful items. Before you can start smithing your weapons and armor, you should first either mine the ores you need, or buy them from other players. Buying the ores or bars from other players may be faster than mining them, but it can be quite expensive.

In order to make a metal bar, you need to have the correct amount of ores, and many of the metals require another type of ore to make a bar. For a complete list, you can refer to the Smelting Chart. Each item you make will need a different number of bars to smith it, and that info can be found in the Smithing Chart for the specific metal.

Dwarven Stouts

These helpful drinks can be bought in the Rising Sun bar in Falador for 3gp per drink. They will raise your Smithing and Mining levels by 1 point for a limited amount of time, allowing you to smith objects a level higher than your actual level.

Mature Stouts & Beer

As a reward from the Forgettable Tale (of a Drunken Dwarf) Quest you will get 2 Mature Dwarven Stouts which will increase your Mining and Smithing levels by 2, not just the ordinary 1 level. When Brewing Beer there is a chance that it will become Mature and give extra bonuses. To make it more likely that it becomes Mature you can add “The Stuff” which is something you can buy as a reward from Trouble Brewing.

Smelting Ores

Now that you’ve got all of your ores together, you should smelt them into bars so that you can make weapons and armor out of them. Just bring the ores to a Furnace, and choose the ‘Smelt’ option. You’ll be able to choose which kind of bar to make, as well as the number of bars to smelt. By right-clicking the bar, you can make 1, 5, 10 or ‘x’ bars. You can also use an ore with the furnace to smelt 1 bar at a time.

Smelting with Magic

Another way to smelt all of your metal bars is to cast the ‘Superheat Item’ spell on the ores. This of course requires 4 Fire Runes and 1 Nature Rune, but it can be much faster than walking to a furnace to smelt your bars of metal. If you smelt Iron ore with Magic, all ores will be smelted.

Smelting Chart
Picture Metal Bar Smithing Level Smithing Experience Ore # of 2nd Item
Bronze 1 6 Copper 1 Tin
Lunar 1 - Lunar -
Blurite 8 8 Bluerite -
Iron 15 12.5 Iron 50%
Silver 20 13.7 Silver -
Elemental 20 7.5 Elemental 4 Coal
Steel 30 17.5 Iron 2 Coal
Gold 40 22.5 (56.2) Gold -
Mithril 50 30 Mithril 4 Coal
Adamantite 70 37.5 Adamantite 6 Coal
Rune 85 50 Rune 8 Coal

Smelting Notes

The 50% for smelting Iron ore means that you will only get about half of the ores that you try to smelt. The other ores are wasted and just disappear into the furnace if they aren’t good enough.
By wearing a Ring of Forging, you’ll have a 100% chance to smelt Iron into bars, and each ring has 140 uses.
Smithing Gauntlets - Members have a chance to have their Steel Gauntlets enchanted into GoldSmith Gauntlets. When you smelt a Gold Bar while wearing these, you’ll earn 56.2xp per bar.
Elemental Bars require you to have completed the Elemental Workshop Quest.
Blurite Bars require you to have finished the Knight’s Sword Quest.
Furnaces

You’ll find a number of Furnaces throughout RuneScape:

Free-Play furnaces can be found in Al Kharid, Lumbridge, Falador, and in the Wilderness north of Edgeville.
Member’s furnaces can be found in Ardougne, Shilo Village, Entrana, Port Phasmatys, Rellekka and Tyras’ Camp.

Smithing Items

With your metal bars in hand, it’s time to make some armor, right? Not quite. You first need a Hammer to work the metal with, and you can buy one from any local General Store. Now you can begin smithing items by finding an Anvil and using a metal bar with it. This will bring up a graphical menu with all of the different weapons, armor, and other items you can make. When the menu comes up, pay attention to the colors of the names and number of bars:

White Name - You’re a high enough level to smith the item.
Blacked-Out Name - You need a higher smithing level to smith the item.
# of Bars in Green - You have enough bars to make the item.
# of Bars in Red - You need more bars in order to smith the item.

Now you can choose the item you wish to smith, and if you have enough bars and a high enough level, you will smith it. You can right click on an object in the smithing item and select to make multiple items at once. This is much faster than just making one item at a time.

Anvils

There are many Anvils that can be found throughout RuneScape. Freeplayers can find Anvils in Varrock, the Dwarven Mines, Doric’s Anvil building, and south of Port Sarim. Members can find them in Yanille, West Ardougne, Port Khazard, Seer’s Village, north of Tai Bwo Wannai and Port Phasmatys.

Item-Specific Info

Some items can only be smithed after completing a quest, and others may need to be smithed in a specific way. Here is some useful info to help you out.

Bronze Wire

Bronze-Rune Nails

These are smithed 15 at a time, and are used in certain quests including Dragon Slayer, Horror From the Deep, In Search of the Myreque and Zogre Flesh Eaters. They are also used in the Construction skill for building furniture.

Dart Tips

Smithed 10 at a time, although you must first complete the Tourist Trap Quest before having the ability to make them. You can add feathers to make them into a throwing weapon.

Claws

These can be smithed after completing the Death Plateau Quest.

Cannonballs

After smelting a bar of Steel, use the Bar with a Furnace while carrying a Cannonball Mould with you. They are made in sets of 4, using a single Steel bar each time. You can only make these after completing the Dwarf Cannon Quest.

FORGETTABLE TALE OF A DRUNKEN DWARF QUEST WALKTHROUGH
Go to the North West side of Keldagrim and speak to the commander of the Black Guard, Veldaban. He will tell you the Red Axe left the city and ask you investigate. Offer to help him and he will teleport you to the Drunken dwarf, speak to him. Ask him about the Red Axe and he will say he needs a beer. Go directly south to the bar and buy him a beer. He will say it’s not the right kind and that you need to grow Kelda Seeds to brew beer.
The Drunken Dwarf gives you one seed, but you will need three more. Get one from a dwarf near the bar in East Keldagrim. He asks for an item, it’s different for everyone. Get him the item and he will give you a seed. Go south from the bar and talk to the cart conductor. Buy a ticket to White Wolf Mountain for 100gp. Ride the cart to White Wolf Mountain. Talk to Khorvak, the dwarven engineer. He is in the same room as the Dwarven stouts. Ask if you can borrow the seed and he will eventually give it to you. Buy another ticket and ride back to Keldagrim. Go to the bar on the South West side of Keldagrim. Talk to Gauss and he will ask you to toast, buy a beer from the barman, speak to him again, and he will give you the final seed.
Take all four seeds to the Kelda hop farming patch, it is in the palace garden, just west of the trade center in West Keldagrim. Talk to Rind the gardener about planting the seeds. Go to the patch, rake it and then plant the seeds. They do not need water or compost, they grow on their own. If you want you can talk to the farmer again and deliver a letter for him to Elstan for a reward while you wait. Elstan is the gardener at the allotment/flower/herb farm just south of Falador. Return to Rind the gardener and speak to him to collect your reward. You get two Marrentill herb seeds as the reward for delivering the letter.
When your plant has finished growing you will receive a message on your screen. Pick the hops and go to the bar on the East side of Keldagrim. Go upstairs and pick up a pot off of the table. Buy some ale yeast from Blandebir. He puts it in your empty pot. Use your two buckets of water with the fermenting vat. Next use your two barley malts with the vat (make Barley malt by using Barley on a Range). After that, use your Kelda hops with the fermenting vat. Lastly, use your pot of ale yeast with the vat and wait as the brew ferments. When the beer has finished fermenting, you will get a message. Turn the valve and use an empty beer glass with the barrel to get a Kelda stout. Go back and talk to the drunken dwarf with the Kelda stout in your inventory and say you want to know about the Red Axe.
Go and talk to the cart conductor close to the boarded tunnel to the far south of the cart area. Ask him about the boarded tunnel. He will tell you to speak to an influential friend. Talk to the mining company director that you helped in the Giant Dwarf quest and ask him to take the boards off the mine for you.
Go back to the boarded tunnel and click to ride the cart that has its track leading into the tunnel. You will see some Dwarven machinery and a box. Search the box and you will receive a green and a yellow stone. Click to control the dwarven machinery. Ride the train cart and when you arrive search the box to get more pieces. Ride back and control the machinery again. Ride the cart again, search the box and then ride to the beginning again. You will now be on a ledge overhearing a conversation between the Red Axe and an ogre shaman. After the conversation proceed to the cave entrance on the east side of the room. You will see more cart paths. You will come out in a storeroom full of bookshelves and boxes. Search the bookshelves and all of the boxes that have papers stacked on them. You will find three items which you must read on the spot, as they do not appear in your inventory. When you are finished walk through the cave entrance to the east and you will be at more tracks. You will come out into another cavern and discover more of the plot of the Red Axe. You will have a spell cast on you by an ogre shaman and then you will appear back at the cart station.
Go to Veldaban at the Black Guard Headquarters in West Keldagrim and talk to him. You will say you can’t remember what happened and that you are craving a beer and kebab. Buy the kebab from Kjut in the kebab store just south east of the drunken dwarf’s house in East Keldagrim and a beer at the bar in East Keldagrim. You must have both the beer and the kebab in your inventory to complete the quest. While standing in the Laughing Miner pub, either drink the beer or eat the kebab. This completes the quest.

Introduction

Mining Rune Ore is perhaps one of the best ways of making money in RuneScape, with an experienced miner being able to bring in 1 million gp in just 3 hours.
This guide will focus on Mining Rune at the Wilderness Rune Mine, as it is the only place in which Free players may mine Rune, and because the other sites are easy enough to mine at anyway.

Recommended Levels

To begin this profitable venture, you will need a few levels to begin with. These are

83+ Mining (Required): Although you need 85 mining to mine Rune, it is possible to do so before. To do this, you will need either a Dwarven stout, which increases your Mining and Smithing Levels by 1, or a mature Dwarven Stout which does so by 2.
It is however strongly recommended that you get 85 mining. This is because it will make things much simpler, as you will not need to take up inventory space by carrying the stouts, they can be hard to buy, and the time that they last is unpredictable.

High Combat Level (Recommended): It is recommended that you have fairly high combat stats, due to the fact that the Rune Rocks are surrounded by level 34 spiders, and due to the fact that they are located in around level 54 Wilderness, you will be able to be attacked by most Revenants; and such you will need to defend yourself.

39+ Prayer (Recommended): It is highly recommended that you have at least 39 prayer so that you may use the prayer protect from magic- although having 43 so that you can use all the protect prayers is preferred.

High Agility (Recommended and members only)- If you are a member, then it is highly recommended that you raise your agility level to at least 30. This will not take to long, and you will most definitely notice the difference. This is because you will be doing a fair amount of running whilst mining rune- be it to the bank, or from Revenants, and you will find the extra energy extremely useful.

Recommended Equipment

You will need the right gear if you want to mine rune successfully. Below are some recommended set ups, but you may add and remove items depending on your budget and levels.

An example of some good equipment. You should change items depending on your levels, and if you are a member or not.

Set up 1- Free to Play

Head- Wizards Hat
Torso- Best d’hide body you can wear
Legs- Best d’hide chaps you can wear
Shield- Anti dragon fire shield
Weapon- Rune Pickaxe
Gloves- Leather Gloves
Amulet- Amulet of defence or Holy Symbol

Set up 2- Members

Head- farseer helm, wizards hat
Torso- Best d’hide body you can wear
Legs- Best d’hide chaps you can wear
Shield- Elemental or Mind Shield
Weapon- Rune Pickaxe
Gloves- Forthity Bracelet
Amulet- Glory Amulet, Amulet of Defence or Holy Symbol

Both of these set ups provide good magic defence, which is what a revenant will usually attack with first, whilst still remaining cheap.

Recommended Inventory

An example of a good inventory.

Around 5 Tuna fish or lobsters: Tuna is recommended, as it is extremely cheap, whilst it still heals a good amount (10hp). Those who are new to rune mining, or with low combat levels may want to take lobsters or swordfish.

3 Cakes: Although they only heal 4hp per bite, in total cake heals 12hp whilst still being cheap. It is recommended that you eat these when not in immediate danger as not to waste money on more expensive fish.

Anti Poison (members): In members worlds, Revenants will often poison you in 50+ Wilderness. There is a chance that you will be teleported here if using Obelisks to travel, and such to prevent an early trip to the bank, it is recommended that you take 1 anti poison potion.

Prayer Potion (members): You will often pray a lot if you encounter Revenants, and such you may save yourself a trip to the altar by carrying 1 prayer potion.

Travel and Location

It is not easy reaching these rare rocks, however with these tricks your journey should be slightly less treacherous.

From Edgeville or Varrock: This is the most dangerous route, and the only one open to free players. You simply walk to the rocks from either Edgville or Varrock.

Skills Necklace (members only): Members may use a Games Necklace to teleport to either Bounty Hunter or Clan Wars. You may then either use teleport obelisks, or walk to the Rune rocks.

Ancient Magiks Spells (members only): several spells from the Ancient Magiks spellbook will teleport you near the Rune rocks; these are-

- Dareeyak teleport;78 magic- The ruins
- Carrallangar teleport; 84 magic- The Graveyard
- Annakarl teleport; 90 magic- The Demonic Ruins
- Ghorrock teleport; 96 magic- The Ice Plateau

Teleport Obelisks (members only): There are several Teleport Obelisks scattered across the Wilderess. If you teleport using one of these, then you will be randomly sent to another. There is one outside bounty hunter, and anther just west of the Rune rocks, meaning that you can reach them easily.

- Green line: Using Teleport Obelisks
- Pink line: Dareeyak teleport
- White line: Carrallangar teleport
- Blue line: Annakarl teleport
- Peach line: Ghorrock teleport
- Black line: from Varrock
- Brown line: from Edgeville

Whilst Mining

Whilst mining, there are several things you should check you have done.

Sound: Make sure that you have the sound effects turned UP. This way you can hear a Revenants magic attack, and such run and use the correct protection prayers straight away.

Auto Attack: You should also have this turned OFF. That way you will not run towards any attacking Revenants.

Run: Have this turned ON, whilst mining, so that you can run from attacking Revenants straight away.

You should also keep an eye on your mini map, and your camera angle low, so that you can see Revenants, and run from them at quickly at possible.

Banking

You should not bank with a full inventory of Rune. This will mean that you cannot run for long, and if you die you will lose a lot of money. You should also make sure that you have some food left.
There are several ways that you can bank your Rune.

Bounty Hunter: This is probably the best way, as it is close by. Members may use Teleport Obelisks, and teleport right outside, whilst free players will have to walk.

Mage Arena (members only): This is the second best method, but is not recommended as you will have to walk around high levelled wilderness, which is a hotspot for Revenants.

- Green line: Using teleport obelisks
- Peach line: Mage arena

Revenants

Throughout this guide, I have mentioned Revenants several times. For those who are not familiar with them, they are dangerous ghosts that replaced Pking. They can hit up to 30 often, and could leave even the most experienced of players dead before they know what’s hit them.
They will usually use there magic attack first, but can use all styles of combat and will change depending on what protection prayer you use.
Such it is advised that you take plenty of food whilst mining, and only items that you are willing to lose.

Grave Stones

Mining Rune is a dangerous past time, and such you will most probably die at some point. When this happens, you will leave behind a gravestone. These last for a few minutes, and if you reach it in time you will receive all of your items back. You can purchase new gravestones from the church in Lumbridge, whilst members may also purchase more once they have finished the drunken dwarf quest.

Tips and Tricks

- The higher your mining level, the faster you will mine Rune.
- Revenants will usually use their Magic attack first; turn your sound up and learn to recognise it so that you may use protect prayers and run straight away.
- If you die, you can still get your items back; but you will need to get to the place that you died at within a few minutes.

World Hopping

As Rune ore takes so long to respawn, it is reccomended that you world hop. It is a good idea to pick around 5 worlds and cycle through them, so that you will be there when the ore spawns.
