The Ancient platebody is a decorated rune platebody that is affiliated with the god Zaros. Sharing the same stats as the rune platebody, the ancient platebody also looks visually similar. Its appearance differs in that the plate features an ornamental purple trim around the symbol of Zaros. The platebody requires 50 Defence to wear and cannot be made using the Smithing skill. Like the rune platebody, the ancient platebody also requires the completion of the Dragon Slayer quest to equip. Players can obtain an ancient platebody as a reward from completing a level 4 treasure trail, or from burning a vyre corpse in the Columbarium.
This platebody is a constituent of the Ancient armour set which consists of the following items: ancient full helm, ancient platebody, ancient platelegs or ancient plateskirt, and ancient kiteshield — all of which are decorative versions of their respective rune armour counterparts.
