About Black kiteshield

The Black kiteshield is a free-to-play piece of equipment in Old School RuneScape.

"A large metal shield"

Over the last 30 days it traded between 660 and 1,801 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 936 gp. About 450 units changed hands per day. The price is up 34.1% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 125 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 18 gp in Grand Exchange tax.

Casting High Level Alchemy returns 979 gp, which is 4.6% above the 30-day average price, so buying and alching it covers its own cost before the nature rune.
