Candymann16 Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 This guide is for all those who think that the blast furnace is a waste of time (lord umega for one :) ) and who believe that it needs to be a group mini game. Yes you will get more exp if you go with a group, but you don't actually need one Requirements 55 magic 60 smithing minimum (68+ being the best IMO) 30 agility 30 firemaking 30 crafting 30 strength A few things befor you get started: 1) never listen to what the forman says 2) take lots of natures to make the most of every trip (with this method you can stay till your nats run out) 3) If you see one of the miners come in wait till he has given the ores to ordan before you buy the ones you want, unless there are 100 of the ore you want, sometimes he brings coal and it will be cheaper if there is more in stock, which will mean a greater profit 4) Any coal and ores left on the conveyor belt when you log off WILL dissapear, so make sure you dont leave anything on the belt, if there are a few coal left on it just chuck the equivilent amount of iron on with it and get some steel bars back 5) If you are under lvl 60 smithing you will have to pay 2.5k every time you enter and wont be able to use the anvils in there, but if you are wearing a ring of Charos (u) you only have to pay 1.25k every time (but still cant access the anvils) Your inventory should look like this as you go into the blast furnace (the coal could be either iron or mithril ores depending if your going to make mith or steel plates) There are 2 different ways you can use the blast furnace, one is with steel, the other with mithril Mithril way First place 20 coal onto the conveyor belt, repeat this by buying 20 coal from Ordan and put that on the belt, now buy 20 mithril ores and put them onto the belt along with the coal Proceeded to the bike and pedal till the ores fall into the crucible then head over to the stove and fill 2 spades with coke then put them in (2 because this makes it slightly quicker and you donÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢t need 2 hammers or buckets) Then its time to pump the pumps (30 strength needed) try to keep your view at around this angle so you can see when the molten metal pours down once it has poured down fill your bucket and use the bucket of water on the bar dispenser Clicking the bar dispenser will bring up a screen like this click the 'all' button to get out the bars in there, there will be just enough to make 4 plate bodies with once all the bars are in your inventory head over to the anvils (60 smithing needed to enter here) and hammer the bars into whatever you want, I would suggest making plate bodies as these give the best amount of money (I think anyway) then high alch what ever you made and repeat the process Steel method This is exactly the same as using mithril, but you only buy one load of coal and 20 iron instead of mith ores If the world ever runs out of coal you can always just change worlds till you find one full of coal (shouldn't take long lol) or you could sell and buy your own noted coal, although I would change worlds, I only take noted ores just incase im halfway through a 'run' and need a few more coal Always, always, always fix anything that breaks as soon as you see it, otherwise you wont get your molten metal to pour out this is my fist guide so advice would be apreciated, also if someone could pm me telling me how to make a video i could make one showing how to do it (a run usually take me about 2 minutes and a video might be easier to understand than the above) Thanks for reading and hope this will promt some people to start to use this as a profitable way to raise smithing (yes you do make money even if you buy all the ores at maximum price, as long as you high alch what you make) thanks to imageshack for hosting all the pictures in this guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ts_Stormrage Posted May 24, 2006 Share Posted May 24, 2006 yeah... good guide, but if you drop your spades (and use onyl 1) and your buckets... and dont have the noted ores with you, but just buy em on the spot... you can make 25 bars... and thus 5 plates...

Candymann16 Posted May 25, 2006 Author Share Posted May 25, 2006 Hey, nice little guide on the Blast Furnace. I might try it some time after I stock up on ores. Thanx for the read! you dont need your own ores with this method, you make a profit even if you buy all your ores from Ordan, as i said in the guide, take some noted ores just in case the shop runs out while your half way through a lap same thing... you just buy again 2 loads and 1 load cuz you have the same invent space... 25 mith, and 2 times 25 coal... yea, i know that, but the noted ores and the spade and bucket being in your inventory do speed it up, i did it making 5 plate when i first went but found for the extra plate you lose more time because of picking up, dropping ever round Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ts_Stormrage Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 same thing... you just buy again 2 loads and 1 load cuz you have the same invent space... 25 mith, and 2 times 25 coal... yea, i know that, but the noted ores and the spade and bucket being in your inventory do speed it up, i did it making 5 plate when i first went but found for the extra plate you lose more time because of picking up, dropping ever round youre walking past the very spots that you have to pick up your spade and bucket... and you can drop your stuff on the way to the next stop... but ok, why do i bother tellign you of faster methods if you dont wanna listen...

You make profit even if you buy all the ores and coal at maximum price Does smithing this way go faster than smithing the old-fashioned way? its not that it goes quicker (which it does, because you dont have to mine/buy your ores, they are all there waiting for you) it is just alot easier than anyother method, you use half the coal and hammer it out all in the same room, the only reason you would have to leave is if you run out of natures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
