Elemental Workshop I


 * This article is about the quest. To see the dungeon, see Elemental Workshop (dungeon). For other uses, please see Elemental Workshop.

The battered book and key

 * Head to Seers' Village, and enter the house immediately south of the building with an anvil in it (house with the range).
 * Search the bookcases on the east wall.
 * You receive a book entitled The Elemental Shield.


 * Read the battered book, and then use a knife or edged weapon on the battered book to get a Battered key.
 * (The book also becomes a Slashed book.)
 * Note: Don't drop the slashed book as it will be used again in the later part of the quest.


 * Go north to the building with the anvil icon (next door to the bank), use the key on the odd-looking wall with the strange crack, and climb down the stairs you find there to enter the Elemental Workshop.

Fixing the workshop

 * Head into the northern room first.
 * (See the map to the right for locations for this section).


 * To the east of the water wheel, turn the valve handle of the water controls.
 * To the west of the water wheel, turn the valve handle of the water controls.
 * Both of the valves should be green.
 * Pull the lever just to the east of the water wheel to make the water wheel turn.
 * Go to the east room.
 * With needle, thread, and leather in your inventory, choose the Fix Bellows option on the bellows. You can find leather by searching one of the crates in the centre room, also if you didn't bring a needle you can find one in a crate off to the west. Sacred clay needles do not work on the bellows.
 * Now, operate the bellows by pulling the lever beside them.
 * Head back to the middle room.
 * Search the smallest boxes in the north east part of the middle room, surrounded by a fence.
 * You find a stone bowl A stone bowl.png


 * Go to the south room, use the bowl on the lava trough, and then use the lava-filled bowl on the furnace in the eastern part of the room to empty the lava into the furnace.

Making your Elemental Shield

 * Head into the north-west area, and attempt to mine an elemental rock.
 * The rock springs to life, yells at you, and attacks you.


 * Kill the earth elemental.
 * It drops an elemental ore Elemental ore.png and a rock. The rock is not needed, only the ore. You cannot use a familiar when fighting the Elemental, or else it will disappear.


 * Return to south room. use the elemental ore along with the four coal from your inventory on the furnace to retrieve the Elemental bar. Elemental bar.png
 * With the Slashed book in your inventory, go to the centre room and use the Elemental bar on the workbench to make the Elemental shield [[File:Elemental shield.png]].

Elemental Workshop I

Trivia

 * There is a glitch where once the player fixes the bellows, when switching the lever to operate them a message simply appears stating "Nothing happens; The lever resets itself." Players with this glitch are unable to complete the quest, Jagex has yet to fix this glitch. To fix this glitch, first make sure both levers on the water wheel are off then turn the right one and then left one then pull lever ( wheel will start moving)
 * The old Quest description was 'Can you make an Elemental shield?' but Jagex has changed it recently.
 * If a player has already slashed the book and removed the key, if they return to the house where they found the book and search the bookcase, it will give them 'The Elemental Shield', already slashed.
 * Upon completing this quest one's Adventurer's Log will read: "I discovered a workshop hidden beneath Seers' Village in which I learned how to create and smith elemental metal into a shield with magical defence."
 * If you search a crate in the Workshop you got the stone bowl or the leather in, it will say 'it's empty.' instead of 'You search the crate but find nothing'.
 * Before the release of Elemental Workshop II, the quest was simply titled "Elemental Workshop". Aside from Unstable Foundations, this is the only time the name of a quest has been changed.
 * If you use a piece of coal on the furnace, it says something on the lines of "The heat of the furnace would ruin this metal" even though coal is not a metal- it is carbon. The same is true of clay (mineable in the earth elemental region) which is a soil.
 * Upon wielding the elemental shield, an animation plays, showing a duplicate appears slightly to the left of the shield.
 * If you try to mine another Elemental Rock after digging up an Earth Elemental, the Earth Elemental will say, 'I told you... Ge'roff us!'
 * If you wear a Herald cape while standing in the light of the furnace, your body is invisible when seen from above.
 * If you start this quest with 20 smithing and 20 crafting the experience will make both levels 26.
