Yes, that does read a bit better: 1250 for addy ore, 250 for nat, 970 for the 6 coal add up to 2470 gp for 38.5 xp. You'd take an enourmous loss going for addy platemail after that though. Truth be told I was very conservative in my mith smelting times. I think you could unnote the ore and coal in about 30 seconds. Another minute or so to smith and alchemy the plates. So the guy that posted 2 minutes had it about right. So it comes to about 48k smithing xp an hour. Now, here's the kicker: IF we're still able to use adamite bar runners after the balanced trading, I think you'd an net about 50k xp an hour, and profit big time (well, until runners start wanting more cash). Now, I used runners for adamantite, but you could do it with mithril bars or even steel bars. I don't think I have to tell you the benefit to be had with 3 or 4 runners bringing you 23 noted addy bars, 23 unnoted addy ore in exchange for your 23 unnoted addy bars, 23 noted addy ore and 8k gp. On a busy world you could be exchanging close to once every minute. i superheated 15k addy bars and it took me around 14 hours, over 40k exp an hour
