Graphical update applied with the RuneScape 2 transition.
- 2001-01-04
Released alongside RuneScape Classic launch as part of the original bronze armour set.
Market Strategy
- Demand from low-level Defence trainers and ironman starter gear
- Smithed in bulk for Smithing XP; pushes supply during XP grinds
- Low margins; treat as Smithing XP byproduct rather than alch target
- Buy limit only 125 per 4 hours — not a flip target
Trading Tips
Compare chainbody price against 3 bronze bars to check Smithing margin
Use shop arbitrage at Falador Wayne's Chains when GE price spikes
Avoid high-alching due to negative profit vs nature rune cost
