Infobox • Talk page

Travelling Artisan is a time-limited event that started on 24 August 2020 and ended at the end of 13 September 2020. During the event, players are able to earn Travelling Artisan Patches that can be turned in to Doran the tool artisan for rewards. The patches will not be removed once the event is over, and will be used again in the next event.

During the event, players can craft various items by providing the materials to Doran. These ingredients are a number of Travelling Artisan Patches, and a selection of other materials. All the materials can be skipped using patches. As you craft items with Doran, he levels up which provides access to more recipes. Items can be given to Doran from the inventory, bank, currency pouch, or metal bank.

Patches are earned by doing any skilling or combat action, with a 3 minute cooldown. Turning-in daily challenges, completing clue scrolls, and completing Archaeology collections also award patches (and ignore the cooldown). Patches can also be bought for RuneCoins or bonds.

Level progression

As you complete the recipes in the event, Doran receives "artisan tool crafting experience". As he gains this experience, he will level it up to level 30, unlocking more recipes in the process.

The following table lists experience required for each level. The experience requirements are the same as for the skills accessible for the players.

Level	XP	Difference		Level	XP	Difference		Level	XP	Difference		Level	XP	Difference
1	0	0		9	969	168		17	3,115	369		25	7,842	814

Rewards

While the event interface can be opened anywhere using the Travelling Artisan Patches, players must be standing near Doran the tool artisan to give or skip the ingredients for the recipes. Ingredients do not have to be in the player's inventory to hand them in; they can be in the bank or metal bank. Noted items are also accepted.

Free players can use Travelling Artisan Patches to skip ingredients that are members' objects.

The costs to skip ingredients scale down with the ingredients left to give. The values listed below are for the full amount of ingredients.

Partially contributing to a recipe causes the player unable to start any other recipes while the original recipe is incomplete. They do, however, receive an option to receive back the already contributed items when attempting to start a new recipe without actually starting the new recipe, allowing them to start the new recipe afterwards.

Strategy

If you only want to obtain the cosmetics, and do not care about getting enhancers, mystery boxes, stars, or dwarven tools, the following is the minimum patches required to reach level 30, plus the other items required. This varies with if you completed the Master Crafting event, and if you are an ironman.

In the following tables, bolded items are cosmetics, and bolded italic items are from Master Crafting. Additionally, once you reach the most efficient item to make (dwarven chainaxe, or big mystery boxes for ironmen), you could make all of the required ones right away, or make a few, then a newly unlocked cosmetic, then some more, etc... Either way will be the same.
