Cave goblin wire is a type of metal wire invented by the Dorgeshuun cave goblins. It is used primarily in their lighting system, which runs throughout their entire city, Dorgesh-Kaan.
Cave goblin wire is used in Light orbs, which can be made by players using the glassblowing section of the crafting skill or by stealing from various chests in Dorgesh-Kaan. The wire must then be added to the Empty light orb to create a filament, allowing the light orb to function in a similar fashion to a light bulb. The completed orb can then be used to replace broken sections of the magical Dorgeshuun lighting system.
Note: cave goblin wire cannot be used for slicing a cheese wheel.
Cave goblin wire can be obtained in four ways, three of which are through the use of the thieving skill.
- The first is to pickpocket the cave goblins inside Dorgesh-Kaan, which requires 36 thieving.
- The second is to steal from the chests in the city, which requires 52 or 78 thieving (depending on the chest).
- The third way, also considered by some to be the easiest way, is to grab wire from the wire machine in the south-west side of the city just east of furnace, which requires 44 thieving and gives 22 thieving xp per success. Another wire is produced in 6 seconds.
- It is possible to "catch your hand in the mechanism", which will stun the player for 4 seconds and cause 50 life points damage.
- A bank is 6 clicks north.
- It is now possible to get 100 wires from a Court Cases summon, which pits the Dorgeshuun vs the H.A.M..
