Cannonballs ftw!

lies.. steel plates then :d

 

[stinoke]

hmm so like each coal is 200ea + iron 100ea = 500ea x 5 = 2500gp, and high alching steel plates are like 1200ea

I believe the only way to not lose money for smithing is making cannonballs or making knifes

 

[Exin]

yeah prolly knifes would be best then

 

[dfin]

I would go with knives. (not knifes)

well... i know many people say this is a waste... but iron bars are the best way to go... they are like 200 ea, iron plates can be high alched for about 336 coins... but mostliy importantly iron is by far the cheapest way to increase smithing if your not looking to make a profit...
