Stormguard steel is an Archaeological material that can be obtained through excavating material caches or various excavation sites, requiring level 70 Archaeology, at various dig sites around RuneScape.

Stormguard steel is required to restore various artefacts. As players increase their Archaeology level and use higher tier mattocks, they are able to excavate Stormguard steel at quicker rates.

Stormguard steel, like other Archaeology materials, can be stored in the material storage container. An unlimited amount of Stormguard steel can be stored in the material storage container.

History

Stormguard steel is a lightning charged steel used in the Third Age by the followers of Armadyl. It was primarily used by the aviansie of Stormguard Citadel, who used it to make weapons, armour and art.

During the God Wars, an aviansie inventor codenamed 'Howl' blended Stormguard steel with hellfire metal, warforged bronze, and Everlight silvthril utilizing quintessence as a catalyst to create a new metal, which was named aetherium alloy.
