This armour can not be bought in stores or be made through the Smithing skill.

It was long thought that the chance of obtaining a piece of third-age armour was about 1 in 10,000 (according to Paul Gower); it was recently revealed that the odds are between 1/100,000 and 1/1,000,000. Third Age melee armour is currently one of the rarest sets of armour in the game. Due to its extreme rarity, it is also the second most expensive armour, second only to Torva armour. In the Grand Exchange, the Third Age melee set has a market price of. While it is currently considered to be one of the best non-degradable armour sets in the game, Bandos armour offers prayer and strength bonuses, and because it is far cheaper, is more widely used than Third Age armour.

Trivia

 * The silvery metal might be based on platinum, a white, silvery, and expensive metal, and a symbol of purity, or titanium, also a white silverish metal, but much stronger and even lighter than steel. It also resembled the fabled metal mithril in other fantasy novels like The Lord of the Rings. 3rd age melee armour is in fact "beaten from magical silver" - this perhaps is in closer keeping with the Lord of the Rings' varied descriptions of Mithril as True-Silver and Moria-Silver, whilst departing from the Runescape interpretation of Mithril as a thoroughly unremarkable, relatively common, blue-ish metal.
