Notes: A Steel platebody requires 5 steel bars and level 48 Smithing to make. Making this platebody yields 187.5 experience by using a steel bar on an anvil. Steel armour is the third weakest type of armour in the game, requiring level 5 Defence to wear. Steel platebodies are a common tactic F2P use to level their Smithing. They are also commonly high level alchemy'ed for Magic experience. They offer a nice return, and keep cost at a minimum. This item can also be obtained in the Lava Maze from the Wilderness, it spawns in the center near the chest.
