Magic
This page was last updated for (v0.18.2). |
Magic is used to cast damage dealing spells with a wand or staff equipped, provided the player has the required Runes in their Bank and the desired spell unlocked.
Mechanics
Magic skill level increases Magic Accuracy Rating and Maximum Hit (0.5% per level) when using spells and Magic Evasion Rating when defending from spells. Raising Magic to Level 99 will unlock the
Magic Skillcape for purchase from the Shop. Equipping the Magic Skillcape doubles the rune saving power of staves and imbued wands.
Attack Styles
There are two Magic attack styles: Magic and Defensive. The only difference is in what experience is earned while using them:
When using the Magic attack style, the player receives 0.4 Magic XP per point of damage dealt.
When using the Defensive attack style, the player instead receives 0.2 Magic XP and 0.2
Defence XP per point of damage dealt.
Alternative Magic
Alternative Magic (Alt Magic) is an alternative method to train Magic using non-combat spells. It is still the same skill as Magic - all XP is shared.
Staves
Staves can be crafted from elemental runes and logs with Runecrafting or looted from monsters. When equipped, staves reduce the need to use
Air,
Water,
Earth, or
Fire runes, depending on the staff type.
The Cloudburst Staff is the only staff that cannot be crafted.
All staves are two-handed.

Wands
Wands are one-handed, meaning they can be used with the off hand equipment. Magic imbued wands can be crafted through Runecrafting using
Magic Wand (Elite). When equipped, Magic imbued wands reduces the amount of
Air,
Water,
Earth, or
Fire runes needed to cast a spell by 3, depending on the wand type.
