Blacksmithing is the skill with which a player can make weapons, shields, and metal armor.
Raising Blacksmithing skill will also raise Strength and Intelligence stats.
At Grandmaster Blacksmithing you will have your name embedded on all slayer items you craft at GM
To craft an item using the Blacksmithing skill:
If the crafting attempt is successful, the item will appear in your backpack. If the player has a GrandMaster level of Arms Lore, there is an added 10% chance that the item crafted will be of 'exceptional' quality, increasing the damage and durability of the item. Further, there is a possibility that the crafted item will have a Slayer effect.
Many crafted items can be smelted to get some of the ingots back. Through experimentation, the successful smelting rate is 65% and the resources returned average out to 66% of the input cost.
Note: It is required to have at least 100.0 Blacksmithy to see Faction Equipment crafting recipes
