Ironman verdict

Primordial boots is a members item. Other players trade it, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade, so you get your own. We list 1 recipe for it.

You can make it yourself with 60 Magic and 60 Runecraft from Dragon boots and Primordial crystal. Each one made gives 200 Magic XP and 200 Runecraft XP.

It is worn in the feet slot; its biggest bonuses are +22 stab defence and +22 slash defence. Our gear guide counts it as a late-game feet for melee (it needs 75 Defence and 75 Strength to use): where it fits in your progression.

It is a material in 4 recipes, for example Avernic treads (max) (80 Magic, 60 Runecraft), Avernic treads (pr) (80 Magic, 60 Runecraft) and Avernic treads (pr)(et) (80 Magic, 60 Runecraft). High Alchemy (55 Magic) turns one into 45,000 coins. Each cast uses a nature rune, 180 coins from a rune shop, and five fire runes that a fire staff replaces, so an alch nets about 44,820 coins.
