This is the Regular Runecrafting Guide, the guide for Ironman/ Hardcore Ironman players is found Here.

Runecrafting is a skill that allows players to craft their own runes for Magic spells. The experience earned from making runes is small, making Runecrafting a very slow skill to train. It is a very click intensive skill to train.

Getting the Supplies

In order to craft Runes, you require Rune Essence, you can obtain essence by either buying it from the Runecrafting store, mining it in the Essence Mine or killing Abyssal Guardians in the Abyss.

Runecrafting Store

To get to the Runecrafting Store, First you will need to teleport to Neitiznot. You can do this by clicking on the world map and then scroll down in the city teles to Neitiznot, or by clicking the Skilling teleport and then on Runecrafting - Neitiznot.

Once there, head into the building to the north of the bank, and trade Cassie. You want to buy Pure Essence, as they give a slightly better exp rate.

While buying essence, buy yourself a talisman of the rune you will be making. You should also make yourself a tiara. When you are at the Runecrafting altar use the tiara on it and it will be enchanted.
While wearing an enchanted tiara you will gain 10% more Runecrafting exp for the corresponding rune.

Talismans can be bought from the Mage of Zamorak inside the Guthix Altar. To get to the Guthix Altar speak to the Mage of Zamorak At South Neitiznot.

Essence Mine

Players can now mine their own essence. To teleport to the essence mine, speak to the Mage of Zamorak at south Neitiznot and ask him to teleport you there.

Non donators will mine rune Essence.
Donators will mine Pure Essence.

Abyssal Rift

The Abyssal Rift is an area in which you can kill Abyssal creatures for:

- Talismans
- Essences
- Pouches (Small to Large)
- Clue Scrolls (Medium)
- Abyssal Charms (Abyssal charms are used to infuse Abyssal Parasite, Abyssal Lurker and Abyssal Titan pouches.)

The Abyssal Rift is also the interface that teleports you to all Altars. Read more about that below.

Extra bonuses

Pouches

Pouches can be bought from the Mage of Zamorak from various amountof Runecrafting Points or looted from Abysall Guardians, except the Massive pouch which can only be got by purchasing it from the Mage of Zamorak.

Theres are 3 different types of Abyssal Familars, each of which can hold some essence for you.

Training Runecrafting

After you have bought an adequate amount of essence , it's time to start Runecrafting. Teleport to South Neitiznot using your Neitiznot teleports.

The next step is to talk to the Mage of Zamorak who is close to where you teleport in. Once you have found the Mage of Zamorak, you can choose to teleport to the Guthix Altar, the Essence Mine or the Abyss.

Training at the Guthix Altar

If you choose to train Runecrafting at the Guthix Altar, you need to buy talismans from the Mage of Zamorak and charge the pillars sorrounding the Altar. You can do so by using a talisman of the type of rune you want to create on the pillars. Note, you can use up to 4 different types of talismans to create 4 different types of runes. Pillar charges are temporary and will require you to recharge them by using another talisman on them.

You can check the integrity of the pillar and also remove that talisman by right clicking the pillar.

While training at the Guthx Alatr you will earn Runecrafting Points. You will earn one Runecrafint Point per essence crafted. You can view your current Runecrafting Points and your total Runecrafting score in the top left of your screen while inside the Guthix Altar.

Runecrafting Points can be used to buy 'Wicked' set pieces and also Runecrafting Pouches. To access the Runecrafting store, trade the Mage of Zamorak at South Neitiznot.

As you can see, you can also view your current Runecrafting Points in the bottom left of the store.

If you choose to train Runecrafting at the Guthix Altar you should ask the Mage of Zamorak to hold some Essence for you seeing as there is no bank inside the Guthix Altar.

The Mage of Zamorak will hold different amounts, depending on the type of your account.

• Regular Players: 300
  
• Donators - 400
  
• Super Donators - 500
  
• Extreme Donators - 1000
  

To get the Mage of Zamorak to hold your essence, speak to him at South Neitiznot with noted essence in your inventory.

To get your essence back, simply talk to him again. If you have pouches in your inventory, the essence will automatically fill into these.

Greater Runic Staff

When equipped, the staff will hold the mined essences as pure essences automatically, and those essences can be withdrawn from the staff as notes when player is outside the essence mine.

The staff will hold pure essences even to NON donators. The limit of essences that the staff can hold are the following:

• Regular: 300
  
• Donator: 400
  
• Super Donator: 500
  
• Extreme Donator: 1000
  

Greater Runic Staff can be used on noted talismans to unote it.

Altars teleport tab

Breaking an altar teleport tab will teleport you to the altar.

Training at normal rune altars

Once you have been teleported into the Abyss, you need to make your way though the obsticles before you can choose which altar you wish to go to. To get through the obsticles you need to have the appropriate tools in your inventory.

When you get past the obsticles you can then choose which altar you wish to train at.

Once at the Altar of your choice, simply left click the altar and craft runes.

Tip: holding down CTRL and click on the Essence in your bank will withdraw a full inventory with one click.
