Steel platebody
“Provides excellent protection.”
About this item
The steel platebody is an armour used in melee with stat bonuses between iron and mithril (not including the black and white platebodies). It requires 5 Defence to equip and provides greater protection than a steel chainbody. Like all platebodies, however, it gives a crippling negative bonus to the user's Ranged and Magic stats. Players with level 48 Smithing can make one by using 5 steel bars on an anvil while carrying a hammer, granting 187.5 experience.

Measured with medians rather than averages, because one spike — an update, a streamer, a brief squeeze — drags an average around for weeks afterwards and makes everything since look ordinary. Worth noting here: this item typically moves 0.61% in a day, which is more than the 0.35% you would be capturing — so holding it overnight risks more than the flip makes.
