Smithing help[answered]

[hitman76]

Hey i wanted to train my smithing level up from 64-70. Whats a good method to use so i won't lose alot of money, and won't take days on end. so please don't suggest smithing bars etc...and no gold ore with gaunlets or platebodies. im willing to spend money, but not loads of money.

 

 

 

Thank you very much :

You can do either steel plates with alching, or mithril bolts, either gives you profit.

hmm, ive heard alot about mithril bolts, do i just make them and sell them unfinished or do i also have to fletch them to make profit? also do i buy the bars or do i have to make them myself?

 

 

 

thanks for the quick reply :

 

 

 

Edit: do i have to use the blast furnace :x ? what if i buy the bars would i still make profit?

 

 

 

ReEDIT:

 

 

 

Ok so i did some calculations, here they are:

 

 

 

10 bolts unf=50xp

 

xp needed for 70 smithing from 64=330612xp

 

bars needed=6613

 

bolts made=66130

 

mithril bars each=1122gp

 

mithril bolts finished=80gp each

 

total cost of bars=7.5mil

 

total money made from selling 66130bolts=5.3mil

 

money loss= 2.2mil

 

 

 

Did i do it right? i lose 2.2mi?!?! not using the blast furnace :x

 

 

 

FFS!!EDIT ONE MORE TIME!!!:

 

 

 

i did a calculation of gold ores with gaunlets...and i lose less money doing gold ores :shock: i think ill just do gold ores :-#

Lol, you didn't even read the guide (You PHAIL). You buy the ore, and you get SMITHING and SMELTING exp at the SAME TIME. That is why i consider it faster than smelting gold ore. Redo your calculations, except buy all the coal and buy all the mithril.

 

 

 

EDIT: they easily sell unfinished.

I honestly doubt you will be able to sell gold bars. Good luck if you can though.

i have read the guide before, and i honestly hate the blast furnace...thanks for the suggestion though. I kind of rushed posting this topic, i didn't even do any cacluations myself. i have decided to kill 3 birds with 1 stone...im gona smelt 5.8k gold ores with the gloves, get 70 smithing, then im going to make 5.8k ruby bracelets, and get 70 crafting, finally finishing off by either enchanting and selling the bracelets, or just alching them.

 

 

 

thanks alot for the help, next time ill think about it myself first before i rush here and post it :wall:
