Smithing Guide RuneScape

Unknown to common men is the fact that almost all of the spears in Gielinor are made by the most cunning of smiths among the barbarian people. A few, of course, have made their way to Karamja, where these exceptionally well-made weapons are a favourite of the tribespeople.

Otto Godblessed is more than willing to teach diligent students the art of making a spear, and those that excel might even learn the art of fighting with the barbarian's traditional one-handed spear: the hasta.

To smith a spear or a hasta you must use a wood of similar quality to the metal. As the whole of a spear or hasta is made at the same time, you must have a metal bar and some logs in your inventory. Simply use the bar on the anvil outside Otto's hut or in the Barbarian Village to make a spear or hasta.

Note that you will not be able to make a hasta until you demonstrate to Otto that you can make a spear.
