You can’t make a full set of Mithril Armour until Level 68 Smithing.Īt this point, it’s worth comparing to other skills, and you’ll see very quickly just how far behind Smithing is compared to Crafting and Fletching.Īt Level 65 Fletching, you can create a Yew Shortbow, requiring Level 40 Ranged.Īt Level 63 Crafting, you can create a full set of Green D’Hide Armour, requiring 40 Ranged and 40 Defence. This misalignment only becomes increasingly more dramatic.īy the time you get to level 65 Smithing, the best you can make is a Mithril Two-Handed Sword and a Mithril Kiteshield, which requires Level 20 Attack and Defence respectively. You’ll very soon have 20 Attack and would prefer to use a Mithril Weapon, which requires at least level 50 Smithing. By the time you reach level 30 Smithing, you can make a steel dagger, which requires level 5 Attack to use.īut the time it takes to reach level 5 Attack is drastically shorter then the time it takes to reach level 30 Smithing. By the time you reach level 20 Smithing, you can make an iron scimitar which requires only level 1 Attack to use. The glaring issues with Smithing become apparent very quickly as it is trained.
