The Imperial platebody is a platebody made of runite and Steel. This item can be bought from Trey after completing the Diplomat quest, the Grand Exchange in Varrock, or from other players. The platebody will degrade by one level after being taken a total of 15,000 damage and will degrade down to a maximum of 5 levels. Players cannot make this item with the Smithing skill nor repair a degraded one. To restore a degraded platebody, a player must not be in a combat situation with the armour on. Leaving it in the bank or wearing it while doing skills or less combat quests will work. Players cannot wear this item until they have completed the Diplomat quest and have 80 Defence or above.
