About Snakeskin

"Nicely tanned skin from a snake."

Snakeskin is a tanned hide used to craft the snakeskin armour set, a mid-tier ranged equipment line that bridges leather and green dragonhide gear. Players obtain raw snake hide from snakes or Zulrah, then tan it into snakeskin at a tanner for a small fee or via the Tan Leather spell. The hide is then sewn into bandanas, bodies, chaps, vambraces, and boots using thread and a needle. Snakeskin is members-only and trades briskly on the Grand Exchange thanks to steady supply from Zulrah.

Market Strategy

  • Zulrah drops the bulk of supply pushing the price low
  • Mid-tier ranged crafting material between leather and d-hide
  • Buy limit of 13,000 per 4 hours supports bulk crafting flips
  • Snakeskin body at 15 hides per craft is the largest consumer
  • Watch tanner price differences across Al Kharid, Canifis and the Crafting Guild

Trading Tips

Tan in bulk at the closest tanner to your bank to minimise time per hide
Craft snakeskin bodies for highest XP per snakeskin sink
Use the Tan Leather spell with 78 Magic and Hard Fremennik for 5-hide casts
