Smithing

The Smithing skill allows you to smelt ores into bars as well as create different types of combat armor. With higher smithing levels, you’ll have access to more ores, be able to create better armors, and use special skilling equipment that can boost your smithing efficiency. You can also receive smithing chests as a rare drop from training this skill.

Activities

The following activities can be done indefinitely without needing materials. Some have equipment requirements in order to start the activity.

For activities involving two skills, the player is only eligible to earn chests in skills that have actual level requirements.

So if the activity has a smithing level requirement, it will be eligible to drop Smithing Chests.

The "2nd Skill" will also be affected by the equipment modifiers based toward the "1st Skill" (IE: +1 Exp will apply to the "2nd Skill" as well).

The following activities are eligible to drop Smithing Chests.
