About Mithril spear
The Mithril spear is a members-only weapon in Old School RuneScape.
"A mithril tipped spear"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 139 and 4,595 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 601 gp. About 500 units changed hands per day. The price is up 45.8% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 125 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 12 gp in Grand Exchange tax.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 507 gp, which is 15.6% below the 30-day average price, so alching a bought one loses money.
