About Bronze sq shield

"A medium square shield."

The bronze square shield is the entry-level metal shield in the F2P square-shield line. It can be smithed from two bronze bars at 11 Smithing for 25 XP and is sold at Cassie's Shield Shop in Falador. It provides marginal melee defence and only sees use by very low-level F2P accounts or smithing-XP grinders who alch it for a small magic XP loop.

Market Strategy

  • Investment Notes
  • High alch value 28 gp; price is pinned near the alchemy floor
  • F2P shield with shop-restocked supply caps any flip margin
  • Marginal demand from new accounts and pure builds
  • Smithing XP loop demand keeps a baseline of buy pressure
