'''Runecraft''', often called '''Runecrafting''', is a [[skill]] that allows players to craft their own [[runes]] for [[Magic]] [[List of spells|spells]]. The [[experience]] earned from making runes is small, and due to the need for constant running and banking, it is fairly click and attention intensive. However, due to the constant demand for different types of runes, it can create a very generous profit despite its slow experience rates.
 
Due to how slow Runecraft is to train, many players look to avoid training Runecraft, and use the experience from [[lamp]]s, [[book of knowledge|books of knowledge]], and from playing [[Tears of Guthix (minigame)|Tears of Guthix]] to raise the skill's level without having to train it.
 
With the release of the [[Blood Altar (Kourend)|Blood]] and [[Soul Altar]]s on [[Update:Zeah: Great Kourend|7 January 2016]], training Runecraft has become less time consuming for high-level runecrafters, with [[blood rune]]s reaching experience rates of around 38,000 per hour and [[soul rune]]s reaching up to around 47,000 experience per hour. Alternatively, if the player is willing to put in the effort, [[lava rune]]s can be crafted for between 68,000 and 75,000 experience per hour from level 75 and up. The [[Guardians of the Rift]] minigame, unlocked after the [[Temple of the Eye]] quest, is a popular alternative to traditional runecrafting offering experience rates of up to 55,000 experience per hour.
 
 
 
==Crafting runes==
In the Runecraft skill, magical [[runes]] are crafted by binding the magical energy from [[runic altar]]s into magical stones. These stones are called essence. There are various types of essence, with each of these types being able to be crafted in a selection of runes.

==Essence==
The types of essence are [[rune essence]], [[pure essence]], [[daeyalt essence]], [[dark essence fragments]] and [[blood essence]]. Besides these types of essence, there are three types of [[Runecrafting cores|cores]] that can be crafted into specific runes.
 
===Rune essence===
[[File:Rune essence detail.png|right|90px]]
Rune essence can be used to craft [[Air rune|air]], [[Mind rune|mind]], [[Water rune|water]], [[Earth rune|earth]], [[Fire rune|fire]], and [[body rune]]s.
 
====Obtaining====
Rune essence can be acquired by mining and from [[Rune essence#Drop sources|monster drops]].
 
Mining rune essence requires completion of the {{SCP|Quest}} [[Rune Mysteries]] quest. After completing this quest, a [[Rune essence mine#Teleportation and accessing the mine|selection of wizards]] can teleport the player to the [[rune essence mine]], where the player can mine the [[Rune Essence (rock)|Rune Essence]] to obtain rune essence for the Runecraft skill.
 
Rune essence can be obtained by mining by [[free-to-play]] players and by [[members]] that have a [[Mining]] level lower than 30.
 
===Pure essence===
[[File:Pure essence detail.png|right|90px]]
[[Pure essence]] can be used to craft [[Air rune|air]], [[Mind rune|mind]], [[Water rune|water]], [[Earth rune|earth]], [[Fire rune|fire]], and [[body rune]]s as well as [[Cosmic rune|cosmic]], [[Chaos rune|chaos]], [[Astral rune|astral]], [[Nature rune|nature]], [[Law rune|law]], [[Death rune|death]], [[Blood rune|blood]], and [[wrath rune]]s.
 
====Obtaining====
Pure essence can be acquired by mining and from [[Pure essence#Drop sources|monster drops]].
 
Mining pure essence requires completion of the {{SCP|Quest}} [[Rune Mysteries]] quest. After completing this quest, a [[Rune essence mine#Teleportation and accessing the mine|selection of wizards]] can teleport the player to the [[rune essence mine]], where the player can mine the [[Rune Essence (rock)|Rune Essence]] to obtain pure essence for the Runecraft skill.
 
Pure essence can be obtained by mining only by [[members]] that are level 30 or higher in the [[Mining]] skill. However, [[free-to-play]] players can obtain via trading with other players.
 
Pure essence can be also be obtained quickly by members by playing the [[Temple Trekking]] minigame.
 
=== Daeyalt essence ===
[[File:Daeyalt essence detail.png|right|90px]]
[[Daeyalt essence]] can be used instead of pure essence, to craft [[Air rune|air]], [[Mind rune|mind]], [[Water rune|water]], [[Earth rune|earth]], [[Fire rune|fire]], and [[body rune]]s as well as [[Cosmic rune|cosmic]], [[Chaos rune|chaos]], [[Astral rune|astral]], [[Nature rune|nature]], [[Law rune|law]], [[Death rune|death]], [[Blood rune|blood]], and [[wrath rune]]s. Doing so grants a 50% bonus in experience gained from creating these runes. This effect also applies to runes crafted at the [[Ourania Altar|ZMI]].
 
==== Obtaining ====
Daeyalt essence can be acquired from the [[Daeyalt essence mine]] in [[Darkmeyer]]. Shards can be converted to daeyalt essence by trading [[Noranna Tytanin]] located near the entrance of the mine at a 1:1 ratio. Any essence received is sent to the bank.
 
To trade in the shards for daeyalt essence, a version of the [[vyre noble disguise]] needs to be worn.
 
Access to Darkmeyer and the essence mine requires completion of [[Sins of the Father]].
 
===Dark essence fragments===
[[File:Dark essence fragments detail.png|right|90px]]
[[Dark essence fragments]] can be used to craft [[Blood rune|blood]] and [[soul rune]]s.
 
==== Obtaining====
Collecting dark essence fragments requires level {{SCP|Mining|38}} and {{SCP|Crafting|38}} or higher. The ability to use the dark essence fragments to craft runes requires level {{SCP|Runecraft|77}} or higher.
 
Dark essence fragments require a few steps to obtain. In the [[dense essence mine]] mine the [[dense runestone]]s to obtain [[dense essence block]]s. This requires a [[pickaxe]] and a [[chisel]]. Bring these dense essence blocks to the [[Dark Altar]] to bind its energy into the blocks. This will turn the dense essence blocks into [[dark essence block]]s. Use a chisel on the dark essence blocks to obtain dark essence fragments.
 
===Blood Essence===
[[File:Blood_essence_detail.png|right|90px]]
[[Blood essence]] cannot be used to craft runes; instead, it offers the chance to craft an extra [[blood rune]] per pure essence, daeyalt essence or dark essence fragment when activated.
 
==== Obtaining====
Blood essence is an uncommon drop from both [[Nex]] and the [[Tombs of Amascut]]. It can also be obtained as a rare drop from certain monsters in the [[Ancient Prison]], and may be found inside the [[Intricate pouch]] reward from the [[Guardians of the Rift]] minigame.
 
===Cores===
[[File:Mind core detail.png|right|90px]]
Cores can be used to craft [[mind rune]]s (using [[Mind core]]s), [[body rune]]s (using [[Body core]]s) and [[chaos rune]]s (using [[Chaos core]]s). For each type of rune, the corresponding core needs to be used. A core acts as 10 pure or rune essence. For example, at level 2 runecraft, one mind core would give 10 mind runes and 55 experience, and at level 98 runecraft, one mind core would give 80 mind runes and still 55 experience.
 
====Obtaining====
Cores are dropped by the [[Golem (Ruins of Camdozaal)|golems]] in the [[Ruins of Camdozaal]]. Each core is dropped by the corresponding golem.
* Mind cores are dropped by [[Mind Golem]]s.
* Body cores are dropped by [[Body Golem]]s.
* Chaos cores are dropped by [[Chaos Golem]]s.
 
==Talismans==
{{Main|Talisman}}
[[File:Air talisman detail.png|right|90px]]
[[Talisman]]s are quite important in the runecrafting skill, as they are the keys used to access most altars. Each one is magically attuned to the [[Runic altar]] that shares its name. An [[air talisman]], for example, is attuned to the [[Air Altar]]. A player may use the talisman only on its corresponding 'mysterious ruin', to repeatedly reach the altar inside. Talismans can be acquired from drops or by [[trading]] with other players.
 
A talisman exists for the [[Air Altar|air]], [[Mind Altar|mind]], [[Water Altar|water]], [[Earth Altar|earth]], [[Fire Altar|fire]], [[Body Altar|body]], [[Cosmic Altar|cosmic]], [[Chaos Altar|chaos]], [[Nature Altar|nature]], [[Law Altar|law]], [[Death Altar|death]] and [[Wrath Altar]].
 
===Tiaras===
[[File:Tiara detail.png|right|90px]]
A talisman can be fused with a [[tiara]]. This creates an equipable item that lets you left-click on the corresponding mysterious ruins to enter, and saves an inventory space. The [[Elemental talisman|elemental]] and [[Catalytic talisman|catalytic talismans]] are instead combined with a [[Gold tiara]].
 
==Altars==
{{main|Runic altar}}
[[Runic altar]]s are locations at which players can use the Runecraft skill to turn essence into runes. Each altar corresponds to a different type of rune.
 
===Regular altars===
[[File:Nature Altar inside.png|thumb|right|300px|Inside the Nature Altar.]]
Most altars are located in another dimension, accessible through Mysterious Ruins scattered across the surface of [[Gielinor]]. This includes the [[Air Altar|air]], [[Mind Altar|mind]], [[Water Altar|water]], [[Earth Altar|earth]], [[Fire Altar|fire]], [[Body Altar|body]], [[Cosmic Altar|cosmic]], [[Chaos Altar|chaos]], [[Nature Altar|nature]], [[Law Altar|law]], [[Death Altar|death]], [[Blood Altar|blood]] and [[Wrath Altar]]. The [[Astral Altar]] is the only regular altar that is not accessed through Mysterious Ruins.
 
Mysterious Ruins are not labelled on the [[world map]]. Players can discover the ruins' location by clicking 'locate' on a [[talisman]]. A [[talisman]], [[tiara]], or [[runecraft cape]] is required to actually enter the ruins and use the altars.
 
When a player clicks on the altar, all essence in their inventory are converted to a type of rune (depending on the altar), and they gain Runecraft experience. They can also enchant a [[tiara]] if they have a normal tiara and talisman in their inventory. Use either the tiara or the talisman on the altar to combine them into an enchanted tiara.
 
===Blood and Soul Altar===
The [[Blood Altar (Kourend)|blood]] and [[Soul Altar]] can be found in [[Arceuus]], near the [[dense essence mine]]. No talisman or tiara is needed to use these altars as they are in the regular dimension.
 
===Ourania Altar===
The [[Ourania Altar]], also known as the [[Zamorak Magical Institute|ZMI]] Altar, converts [[pure essence]] into an assortment of random runes, with a chance of bonus runes being created if players have the [[medium Ardougne Diary]] completed. The altar, which requires no talisman or tiara to enter, gives roughly 1.7 times the normal experience for each pure essence used. Rune essence cannot be used. Players do not need a specific Runecraft level in order to craft at this altar, but the chance of crafting higher-levelled runes increases with a higher Runecraft level. Players can not craft a [[wrath rune]] through the Ourania Altar; this is the only rune uncraftable at the Altar outside of combination runes.
 
==Abyss==
{{Main|Abyss}}
[[FIle:Abyssal leech.png|right|90px]]
The [[Abyss]] is a special region that requires completion of the [[Enter the Abyss]] [[miniquest]]. The Abyss provides access to all the [[runic altars]] without the need for a [[talisman]], with the exception of [[astral rune]]s and [[wrath rune]]s. The Abyss consists of two rings: a dangerous outer ring in a [[multiway combat zone]] and a safe inner ring with rifts leading to the runic altars. In appearance, it seems to be oddly organic, with eyes, boils, and strange-looking tendrils. Aside from the [[abyssal monster]]s inhabiting it, using the Abyss is also dangerous because players who enter the Abyss will have their [[Prayer]] points drained to 0, and players who enter without wearing an [[Abyssal bracelet]] will also be immediately given a [[skull (status)|skull]].

|}
 
==Multiple runes==
As a player's Runecraft level increases, they can make more [[runes]]. However, they only earn [[experience]] based on the amount of essence they use. The number of runes made from the essence in a player's inventory in an action that gains a level is determined by the player's level before the runecrafting action, even if crafting the same amount of essence one piece at a time would yield more runes. For example, a player with a Runecraft level of 22 will craft 3 air runes for each [[pure essence]] used.
 
The [[Raiments of the Eye]], obtainable from playing [[Guardians of the Rift]], grant 10% more runes per piece, with a 20% set bonus for a total of 60% when the full outfit is worn.

===Runic extracts===
Players can use [[runic extract]]s, a catalyst obtained from the [[Scar essence mine]], to craft additional bonus runes when runecrafting.
 
The following table outlines the cost and bonus runes per extract:
{{Scar extract table}}
 
==Combination runes==
[[Members]] have an extension to Runecraft, which is the ability to combine two runes into one item.
 
To craft combination runes, a player needs to take existing [[runes]] that are one half of the combination, with a matching [[talisman]] (not a [[tiara]]), along with an equal amount of [[pure essence]] to the [[Runic altar|altar]] which comprises the other half of the combination. Use the existing runes or the talisman for the existing runes on the altar. This has a 50% chance of success per rune, and any failed runes are simply destroyed. The talisman will be consumed regardless of how many runes are made. Players can wear a [[binding necklace]] to have a 100% chance of success instead.
 
The player may use the [[Lunar spell]] [[Magic Imbue]] to make combination runes without needing the opposing talisman. Using binding necklaces and Magic Imbue to craft [[lava rune]]s can yield the highest Runecraft [[experience]] per hour in ''Old School RuneScape''.

Players receive less experience at the lower-levelled altars. For example, making mist runes at the Air Altar will give 8 experience for each rune made, while making them at the Water Altar will give 8.5 experience for each rune made.
 
==Essence pouches==
{{Main|Essence pouch}}
[[Essence pouch]]es are bags that can hold varying amounts of [[rune essence|rune]], [[pure essence|pure]] or [[daeyalt essence]] for use in the Runecraft skill. Essence pouches are highly prized among runecrafters because they can be used to take larger loads when runecrafting and mining pure essence.
 
Essence pouches decay with use, and must be repaired by visiting the [[Dark Mage (Abyss)|Dark mage]] in the centre of the Abyss (or by contacting him with the [[NPC Contact]] [[Lunar spell]]) or they will disappear. '''Note''': The pouches '''do not''' have to be brought directly to the Dark Mage in order to be repaired; any and all pouches that are stored in the bank will also be repaired.
 
Essence pouches are dropped by monsters in the [[Abyss]] and the [[Abyssal Area]] after completion of the [[Enter the Abyss]] [[miniquest]].

==Infusing==
[[File:Pegasian crystal detail.png|right|90px]]
The three crystals dropped by [[Cerberus]], being the [[Primordial crystal|primordial]], [[Pegasian crystal|pegasian]] and [[eternal crystal]], can be infused to the [[dragon boots]], [[ranger boots]] and [[infinity boots]] respectively to create the [[primordial boots]], [[pegasian boots]] and [[eternal boots]].
 
This process requires level 60 or higher in the Runecraft and [[Magic]] skill and grants 200 experience in both skills.
 
[[Splitbark armour]] can also be infused into [[Swampbark armour]] at the [[Nature Altar]] after reading the [[Runescroll of swampbark]] or into [[Bloodbark armour]] at the [[Blood Altar|true Blood Altar]] or [[Blood Altar (Kourend)|false Blood Altar]] after reading the [[Runescroll of bloodbark]].
 
==Runecraft pet==
[[File:Rift guardian (follower, fire).png|right|90px]]
{{Main|Rift guardian}}
The [[Rift guardian]] is a skilling [[pet]] that can be obtained while training Runecraft. The chances of getting it are dependent on the player's Runecraft level, the rune the player is crafting, and the number of essence used.
 
==Tips==
*As training the Runecraft skill involves a lot of running, a high [[Agility]] level and the [[Graceful outfit]] will be very beneficial.
*An alternative method for training Runecraft is by using rune runners. A runner is a player that changes noted essence into unnoted essence by converting them in a [[bank]] or a shop. At the appropriate [[Runic altar|altar]], the runner trades the Runecrafter changing unnoted essence for noted essence and some fee (usually [[coins]] or [[runes]]). The Runecrafter increases the amount of essence processed and the runner gets a good reward.
*Another good way is to have an [[Ornate rejuvenation pool]] in your house and use house teleports while running, using rejuvenation pool then Amulet of Glory to Edgeville and run to the Abyss.
