Burial equipment

For the training method removed after the Mining and Smithing rework, see Burial armour (historical).

Burial Forges in the eastern half of the Artisans Workshop

Burial equipment is a type of item introduced in the Mining and Smithing rework. Making a burial version of an item consumes a maximally upgraded item and produces experience only. Upon completion of the Smithing operation, the item is automatically removed from the inventory. This makes the process a "expensive, no reward, high experience" method of training.

Burial equipment can only be made from adamant equipment and higher metals. Burial equipment is made at a Burial Forge and Burial Anvil in the Artisans Workshop; a normal anvil and forge cannot be used. Making a burial item consumes the item, but does not require additional bars. Note: You must repair an item back to its tradable state to be able to use it for burial.

Burial sets

Burial sets can also be made at a burial forge and anvil. A burial set combines the operations of making a burial helmet, body, legs, gauntlets, and armoured boots into one Smithing operation. Burial sets take the same amount of progress to complete as the sum of doing each item individually but give an additional 5% base experience. This bonus can be further increased by unlocking Solemn Smith from the Artisans Workshop, stacking the bonus up to 10%.

Level	Metal	Progress Required	XP For Individually Burying A Set	XP Per Burial Set
				Base	Solemn Smith I	Solemn Smith II	Solemn Smith III	Solemn Smith IV	Solemn Smith V
40	Adamant	3,000	4,080	4,284	4,324.8	4,365.6	4,406.4	4,447.2	4,488
50	Rune	4,320	11,520	12,096	12,211.2	12,326.4	12,441.6	12,556.8	12,672
60	Orikalkum	5,040	16,800	17,640	17,808	17,976	18,144	18,312	18,480
70	Necronium	6,720	48,000	50,400	50,880	51,360	51,840	52,320	52,800
80	Bane	7,560	67,200	70,560	71,232	71,904	72,576	73,248	73,920
90	Elder Rune	9,600	192,000	201,600	203,520	205,440	207,360	209,280	211,200

Experience

Making burial equipment gives the same experience total but require half the progress as making the maximum upgrade for that item. For example, making an elder rune two hand sword + 5 from an elder rune two hand sword + 4 grants a total of 64,000 experience. Making the +5 sword into an elder rune burial two hand sword also grants 64,000 experience.

Thus, if one were to buy bars, make items, upgrade them to the maximum, and finally make a burial item, they would gain 50% more experience per item (and per bar) than just making and upgrading the item to the maximum. Of course, this comes at the cost of receiving no items in return. This applies to all tiers of metal from adamant to elder rune, and all burial items in those tiers.

Respect

Respect is earned - as usual - at 1% per 10,000 experience gained, but unlike regular smithing, for burial smithing the total is awarded as a lump sum after the item is finished. This is important to consider when the earned respect will increase your total sum over 100%, as any excess will be lost.

For example having 85% respect and completing an elder rune burial set would total 85% + 20.16% = 105.16%, but the maximum respect you can have is 100%, forfeiting 5.16% respect.

Update history

• patch 7 January 2019 (Update):
  • From adamant, items which have been upgraded to the maximum for that metal can be taken to the artisan's workshop and made into burial equipment. This destroys the item but gives the fastest possible XP/hr.
