Runescape Elder Rune Smithing Guide - A Profitable Smithing Method

Welcome to Artisan's Workshop! This money-making guide will explore a profitable method of making money through the Smithing skill. While many Smithing updates and guides have focused on smelting and forging for profit, the Artist's Workshop introduces another lucrative money-making method: Elder Rune Smithing. Not only can you profit from training the skill, but crafting Elder Rune armor also yields substantial profits. In this guide, we will start from level one and take you through the process of creating Elder Rune platelegs, which can net you around 4.4 million gold per hour.


Requirements:

Smithing level: 90+

Superheat Form prayer from the Plague's End quest

Crystal armor with the Tinker and Rapid perks

Powerburst of Masterstroke for a boost in productivity


Getting Started:

Before we begin, let's gather a few items that will enhance your experience and make the process smoother:

Superheat Form prayer: This will transform your Smithing experience and provide significant benefits.

Dungeoneering coal furnace (optional): Place this item in your window to help maintain the temperature of your materials, ensuring they don't drop below 50 heat. This is useful for an AFK approach.

Powerbursts: Use them wisely to speed up the process.

Wiki: Refer to the RuneScape Wiki for up-to-date information on the best items to craft for maximum profit.


Smithing Elder Rune Platelegs:

Start the project and gather the necessary materials. Currently, Elder Rune bars cost around 100,000 gold each.

Use the Superheat Form prayer and Crystal armor with Tinker and Rapid perks to optimize your production.

Create the Elder Rune platelegs from scratch, starting from the base level and upgrading them to level five.

Once the first set of Elder Rune platelegs is completed, please return to the forge, reheat them, and prepare for the next phase.

Keep repeating the process, upgrading the platelegs and ensuring your heat level stays above 50 for optimal speed.

During a bonus XP weekend, plus-four Elder Rune platelegs can be sold at a higher price due to players seeking quick Smithing XP. However, for day-to-day Smithing, it is recommended to sell the base level platelegs up to level five.


Maximizing Profit:

Utilize the RuneScape Wiki's profit page for Elder Rune items to stay updated on the best profit margins.

Elder Rune platelegs are among the most profitable items to Smith, followed by four Helms.

Platebodies may provide better XP per hour but lower profit margins.

Consider using additional items such as Perfect Juju Potions for extra XP and benefits, Smithing Cape, Hammers (especially augmented ones), Auto Heaters (normal or advanced), Scrimshaw of Efficiency, Blacksmith's Hat, and Blacksmith's set for bonus XP.

If you have access to Elite or Varrock armor, use them for quicker progress.

Perform Smithing in a highly populated world or the Artisan's Workshop world to benefit from core boosts and Illumination flowing through the forges.


Conclusion:

Smithing has evolved from being an expensive skill to one that can yield profits comparable to Gathering skills. Elder Rune Smithing, in particular, stands out as a highly profitable method. By following this guide, you can efficiently craft Elder Rune platelegs, making around 4.4 million gold per hour.

And since we don't want to waste any time, we're going to do it all in one hour. So tighten your gloves, take a deep breath, and step up to the plate. Matt Olsen (95 Overall) First up is Matt Olsen.

Diablo 4 Season 3 Ahavarion Lightning Storm Druid Build

We are stepping into the exciting world of Ahavarion Lightning Storm Druid Build in Diablo 4. This guide will show you how to master a build that not only destroys single targets, but also has better staying power without relying on vulnerability. We have changed everything about this build, from glyphs to gear, in order for us to give you a strategy that excels in vault running and boss fights. Addressing Elemental Exposure and Vulnerability One of the major issues with the Lightning Storm build has been maintaining vulnerability consistently. To counter this, our glyph setup now includes Exploit which gives three stacks of Vulnerability. Nonetheless, this is not enough because enemies lose this debuff quickly. In such a scenario, there comes a pet which acts as a constant source of vulnerably thereby making it essential since our top glyph Earth and Sky boosts damage against vulnerable or crowd controlled enemies. Paragon Board Optimization The Paragon board is composed of seven gly...
