About Steel javelin tips
"Needs a shaft."
Steel javelin tips are stackable smithing products created from a single steel bar at level 36 Smithing, yielding 5 tips and 37.5 experience per bar. They combine with javelin shafts via Fletching at level 32 to produce steel javelins (75 xp per 15 javelins). The process is currently unprofitable due to bar costs outpacing tip prices.
