Varrock armour 3

Varrock armour 3 is the reward given to players by Vannaka upon completion of the hard Varrock Tasks. When worn, it provides helpful bonuses to mining and smithing. If lost, it can be re-acquired by speaking with Vannaka. The level 3 armour has stats identical to a steel platebody, with the added bonus of being lighter.

Effects
Effects active at all times:


 * Naff will sell member players up to 64 battlestaves per day instead of the usual 8.
 * Allows toggle of Varrock teleport spell to the Grand Exchange instead of the market square with Vannaka, Rat Burgiss or Reldo (previously it was only with Rat or Reldo)
 * Chef's hat does not have to be worn to access the Cooks' Guild.
 * Access to the bank in the Cooks' Guild

Effects active only when worn:


 * Chance of Mining two ores at once when mining ores up to and including adamantite. If two ores are mined at once, the player gets experience for both ores. Message: The Varrock armour allows you to mine an additional ore. This stacks with the Shooting Star reward and concentrated coal or gold rocks effects of possibly mining an additional ore, making it possible to mine up to four ores at once when all three effects are activated at the same time. Additionally, if the player has received the Golden mining top, the varrock armour, when worn with the rest of the golden mining suit, will grant the normal experience bonus as the mining top.
 * The probability of receiving a piece of the Skull Sceptre is greatly increased, and the charges on the sceptre are doubled when it's assembled while wearing this armour.
 * When smithing bars (on an anvil), players will receive the message: The Varrock armour allows you to smith the item slightly faster. While the text is different to the smelting effect, both are in essence exactly the same, in that two ores or bars are processed in the time that it would normally take to process one.
 * Chance of smelting two bars at once when smelting ores up to and including adamantite in the Edgeville furnace. Message: The magic of the Varrock armour enables you to smelt 2 bars at the same time. If smelting iron ore with a ring of forging, only one bar will count. This allows rings of forging to last longer before melting.

Trivia

 * The Varrock armour 3 has a passing resemblance to the fighter torso and third age platebody.
 * Before the Personalised Shops update, this armour gave better prices in stores throughout Varrock. This was replaced with the benefits affecting the Skull Sceptre.
 * People often like to buy 64 battlestaves by using the varrock armour 3 and then immediately sell them at the grand exchange for a profit.
 * The armour does not interfere with Ava's Accumulator. It appears to be made of some kind of stone.
 * The Varrock armour 3 can be replaced with the golden mining top, and still have the same effects as the Varrock armour 3 did.
