Runes are a series of items, each inscribed with a different element. Their primary use is as ammunition for staves.

Obtaining

Rune Shrine

Runes can be obtained from a rune shrine, this being the best way to obtain an individual specific rune in mass quantities.

Obtaining runes using this method requires a very specific process. To obtain a rune, the player must first find a Rune Shrine structure, which can be found in certain dimensions. Once the player has found one, the player has to use either an Unpowered Rune or Charged Rune on the Rune Shrine block at the center of the structure (the player will need to place a Rune Shrine block in the structure's center, except for Wind Runes, whose structure comes with one). The player can use an Unpowered or Charged rune on the rune shrine to create runes, except in for some runes, which require Charged runes only. The player has to have a certain level of Runation at least in order to create the rune. If the player is not at the correct Runation level minimum, or tries to use an Unpowered rune when a Charged rune is required, then the desired rune will not be created.

Skills

All Runes can be extracted from lava at level 65 Extraction.

Mob Drops

Goblins and Shyre Trolls have a 100% chance to drop Wind Runes when killed. Sea Trolls have a 100% chance to drop Water Runes when killed. Embrakes have a 100% chance to drop Fire Runes when killed. Wither Wizards have a 100% chance to drop Wither Runes when killed. Arocknids have a 50% chance to drop either Fire or Wither Runes when killed. The chance to get rune drops cannot be increased with the Looting enchantment.

Usage

Ammunition

Runes can be used as ammunition for staves.

Each staff will require 1 less of each rune if the player wears a full set of Nightmare Armor or Runation Armor. Rune costs will be halved if the player's staff has the archmage enchantment on it.

Rune Consumption

Whenever the player is below 20% health while wearing a full set of Hydrangic Armor, 1 Energy Rune, 1 Distortion Rune, and 1 Life Rune will be consumed (if able) to restore 10 (×5) health to the wearer.

A Kinetic Rune can be given to an Alluricorn in return for a short speed boost.

Rune Templar

Fire, Water, Energy, and Life/Poison runes are used in conjunction with Runic Energy to play the Rune Templar minigame.
