Runecrafting

You can train Runecrafting using

/runecraft

Boosts

There are several boosts available which apply to all runes except blood and soul runes. You can view the boosts for blood and soul runes on the Dark Altar page. The true blood altar uses the same boosts as regular runecrafting.

  • 5% for 60+ Agility OR 10% for 90+ Agility
  • 10% for Graceful (equipped in any setup)
  • 1% for Ring of endurance (works from bank but must be charged)
  • 3% for Runecrafting cape
  • 3% for Ring of the elements (Combination runes only)

Pouches

You can create Runecrafting pouches using /create. Similarly to in-game, higher tier pouches also require higher Runecrafting levels to use. These boost the amount of essence you can carry in 1 inventory, increasing XP/Hr.

Multiple Runes

Just like in OSRS, certain levels will grant you multiple of regular runes. Combination runes are never multiplied.

Combination Runes

**Note for Lava runes ONLY:**You can use the **usestams:False option to send your minion runecrafting without using stamina potions. However, you will runecraft 3x slower than usual.

It's recommended to equip a staff in your skilling setup to provide infinite runes, for example a fire staff when crafting lava runes.

Tiaras

Crafting tiaras are a method of runecrafting training, albeit an incredibly slow method. Tiaras don't have any use within the bot, except for being stored in STASH units. They can be created through the /runecraft command.

Tiaras don't have any level requirements for creating them. However, some tiaras including Cosmic, Death, Law & Wrath tiaras need 5, 10, 10 & 200qp respectively.
