Travelling Artisan is a time-limited event that started on 5 October 2020 and ended at the end of 18 October 2020. During the event, players are able to earn Travelling Artisan Patches that can be turned in to Ulric for rewards. The patches from the last Travelling Artisan event remain usable in this one, and remain to be usable in the next one.

During the event, players can craft various items by providing the materials to Ulric. 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 Ulric, he levels up which provides access to more recipes. Items can be given to Ulric from the inventory, bank, currency pouch, or metal bank. Ulric's level began at 1 regardless of what level Doran reached in the previous Travelling Artisan event.

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.

For the duration of the event, there is a Temporary Bank chest next to Ulric.

The event coincides with the 2020 Gielinorian Giving event.

Level progression

As one completes the recipes in the event, Urlic receives experience. As he gains experience, he will level 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 skills accessible to 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
2	83	83		10	1,154	185		18	3,523	408		26	8,740	898

Rewards

While the event interface can be opened anywhere using the Travelling Artisan Patches, players must be standing near Ulric 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 backpack, bank, currency pouch, 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.

Guardian of Fortitude outfit

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 own the previous event cosmetics, and if you are an ironman.

In the following tables, bolded items are new cosmetics, and bolded italic items are from previous events. Additionally, once you reach the most efficient item to make (upgraded fletching size enhancers, 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.
