This page is about the skill. For the enchantment, see Runecrafting (Enchantment).

The Runecrafting skill is a combination of runecrafting and weaving. Runecrafting lets players use essence to create runes that have many uses throughout the game. Weaving lets players weave cloth that is used to craft the moajority of magic equipment and enhance unique items.

Runecrafting

Runecrafting allows players to create runes from Rune Slate Rune Slate (acquired through Mining) and essences. These runes are required for Scrollcrafting, using magic abilities, consumed by some Enchantments and for Crafting certain items.

Every 20 levels will increase the number of runes crafted in an action by 1. Intermediary levels will get a chance to craft an additional rune depending on how close it is to the next 20 level breakpoint.

Runes/Essence

To start runecrafting, players must first gather essence by doing various activities. A Rune Slate Rune Slate and 400 essence are used for each runecrafting action. Used Essence can be reduced with the runecrafting enchantment but a minimum of 400 is required to start crafting.

Crafting runes always provides 25 runecrafting experience for each rune crafted.

3 essence is gathered for each relevant action and can be increased with the Enlightenment enchantment or consuming the corresponding talisman.

Element Rune Essence How to Obtain
Air Air essence is gathered automatically. Essence gain is doubled when idling.
Earth Earth essence is gathered while Mining.
Fire Fire essence is gathered while Smithing or Cooking.
Water Water essence is gathered while Fishing.
Blood Blood essence is gathered by dealing damage to enemies during Combat.
Death Death essence is gathered by killing monsters in Combat.
Chaos Chaos essence is gathered by attempting to hit monsters during Combat (on every swing of a weapon).
Nature Nature essence is gathered while Foraging or Farming.
Mind Mind essence is gathered while Enchanting or Augmenting.
Cosmic Cosmic essence is gathered while Enchanting or runecrafting.

Talisman

Talismans are objects found from many different sources. Talismans can be consumed, permanently yielding an additional six essence for the relevant skill. Each talisman of the same type consumed after the first will grant 35,000 - 50,000 essence to that type.

Talismans are uncommon items obtained when opening chests, geodes, bird's nests, sunken treasures, and satchels. Many monsters drop talismans rarely, including the giants of the Valley of Giants.

Runecrafting Speed

Runecrafting speed is determined by the following formula:



Cloth Weaving

Cloth Weaving allows players to weave cloth used in crafting most magic equipment and enhance unique items. Weaving uses fibers, found while fishing. The Scroll of the Fiber Finder can be used to increase the chance of finding a fiber.

There are 7 tiers of cloth that can be weaved. All cloth have the same base action timer of 5 seconds which can be reduced using relevant enchantments. Using the Fibrous Fabrication enchantment, the fiber cost per action can also be reduced.

All cloth have a small chance based on runecrafting level and cloth tier to produce an Ancient cloth fragment, which are used to craft the Abandoned Acadamy Scroll to access the Abandoned Acadamy Base.
