About Studded body
"Those studs should provide a bit more protection."
Studded body is the strongest F2P ranged body armour, sitting between the hardleather body and the members-only green d'hide body. Crafted at 41 Crafting from a leather body and steel studs for 40 XP, it requires 20 Ranged and 20 Defence to equip. With +25 ranged defence and +8 ranged attack it anchors most F2P ranged PvM and PKing loadouts. Vendor sources include Horvik's, Hickton's, and Aaron's archery shops, all stocking it for 850 coins.

History (1)
- 2004-03-29
Released alongside the original Ranged armour line.
Market Strategy
- Very low GE price (~353 gp); high alch at 510 gp leaves a small margin after nature runes
- F2P PKing demand keeps volume steady around 1,800 units daily
- Crafting profit is minimal but positive after GE tax when steel studs are cheap
- Steel studs supply is the bottleneck on crafted output
Trading Tips
Watch steel stud price - they drive crafted body margin entirely
Buy from vendor shops if GE listings spike above 850 coins
Alch only when GE price falls more than nature rune cost below high alch
