Steel equipment

The Old School RuneScape Wiki also has an article on: osrsw:Steel equipmentThe RuneScape Classic Wiki also has an article on: classicrsw:Steel equipment

Steel equipment is the third-weakest metal equipment and is stronger than iron equipment. As with all things steel, they are of light, silvery-grey colour.

Weapons

Steel weapons give low attack bonuses. They are more expensive and powerful than iron, but less powerful than black, white and mithril equipment. Some of the weapons are used in the quest In Search of the Myreque.

Melee weapons

Players require an Attack level of 20 to wield steel melee weapons.

Trivia

• According to Captain Rovin, the human kingdoms use steel equipment as their military standard, as anything else higher would be too costly to maintain.
