Rune platebody



The Rune platebody is an item that is considered the best chest armour available for non-member warriors. It used to be considered the best platebody made with conventional metals, but was surpassed with the release of While Guthix Sleeps and the Dragon platebody. It can be bought from Oziach after completing the Dragon Slayer quest, the Grand Exchange in Varrock, or from player smiths. Players can make this item with the Smithing skill at level 99 using five Runite bars. It gives 375 experience. Players cannot wear this item until they have completed the Dragon Slayer quest and have 40 Defence or higher. Non-member players can now obtain rune platebodies from certain high-levelled Revenants, or by purchasing one from another player. Rune platebodies have the same stats as a sacred clay platebody. It has lower stats than a Granite body, which is currently a slightly lower grand exchange price.

Treasure trails versions
The Rune platebody (g) and (t) can both be obtained as rewards from Level 3 Treasure trails. They cannot be made through the Smithing skill.

Players cannot trim armour. Some players throughout RuneScape claim that they can trim your armour if you give it them. If anyone happens to claim this, report them and ignore them or walk away from them, you can also warn other players that it is a scam and the player will steal their items.

There are also three versions representing the three major gods of RuneScape, as well as a gold gilded version. These are the Saradomin platebody, the Guthix platebody, and the Zamorak platebody, and the gilded platebody.

All the Treasure Trails versions have exactly the same stats as the normal version, but are considered more rare due to the fact they are only obtained from a Treasure Trail, that free players cannot obtain them, and have to buy them from either a member or the Grand Exchange.
