  You must complete the Cold War quest. The gloves are obtained during the quest's storyline, making it a direct requirement.

  
  

  Skill Requirements

  
  

  70 Agility: Essential for navigating obstacles in the Cold War.

  
  

  60 Thieving: Needed for sneaking past enemies during the quest.

  
  

  Recommended Items

  
  

  Combat Gear: Some encounters in the quest can be tough, so bring gear suited to your combat style.

  
  

  Coins: You'll need some OSRS GP for various quest-related services.

  
  

  Teleport Runes or Jewelry: Quick transport can save significant time while questing.

  
  

  Step-by-Step Guide to Acquiring Ice Gloves

  
  

  Step 1: Start the Cold War Quest

  
  

  Head to the quest start point north of Taverley. Speak with the NPC Avin to begin your journey. He'll introduce you to the icy mysteries surrounding the questline.

  
  

  Step 2: Solve Puzzles and Overcome Obstacles

  
  

  The quest is filled with challenges requiring both Agility and Thieving. You'll need to sneak, climb, and problem-solve your way through puzzles, while also battling enemies that block your progress.

  
  

  Step 3: Combat and Exploration

  
  

  Some sections of the quest involve combat encounters, so be ready with food, potions, and strong weapons. The enemies aren't overly difficult but can slow you down if you're unprepared.

  
  

  Step 4: Claim the Ice Gloves

  
  

  Upon completing the major sections of Cold War, you'll be rewarded with the Ice Gloves. From this point forward, you can wear them to handle hot items and access their many utilities.

  
  

  Practical Uses of Ice Gloves

  
  

  Once obtained, Ice Gloves quickly prove their worth. Here are the most common situations where they shine:

  
  

  Barrows Runs

  
  

  Opening the Barrows chest without the gloves deals damage. With Ice Gloves, you can loot safely, allowing for more efficient trips and less reliance on food.

  
  

  Handling Hot Objects

  
  

  Certain quests and activities require interacting with cheap OSRS GP scalding items. Whether it's in Herblore, Cooking, or other skill-related tasks, the gloves prevent unnecessary damage and resource loss.
