About Yak-hide armour (top)

"Smelly yak body armour."

Yak-hide armour (top) is a body slot melee armour crafted at 46 Crafting using two cured yak-hides obtained on Neitiznot. At only 20 Defence to wear, it delivers slash, stab, and ranged defence comparable to mithril and is one of the better budget choices for low-level pures, ironmen, and the Fremennik Isles 'Defender of Varrock' style accounts. It is also a required step in the Fremennik Isles quest, where the player must hand over the armour to Thakkrad to soothe the moss giants.

Market Strategy

  • Niche Fremennik quest armour with a small but steady ironman demand.
  • 20 Defence makes it attractive for low-level pures who skip rune armour.
  • Most regular players upgrade quickly to rune or barrows top tiers.
  • Buy limit 70 keeps wholesale flips modest but margins reliable.

Trading Tips

Stock before Fremennik Isles content runs and seasonal pure leagues.
Watch cured yak-hide cost as the upstream supply driver.
Bulk buy on weekend lows from skiller dumps and ironman sells.
