Runecrafting
With the Runecrafting skill players can create runes used for casting Magic spells. All runes are made out of Rune essence, mined from the Rune essence mine. Players can access this mine by climbing down the ladder south of Barbarian village or by talking to Aubury in Varrock, Port Sarim or Ardougne.
Runes can be crafted at runecrafting altars, which are accessible in three ways:
- Enter a Prismatic altar while having one of the Talismans in the inventory. By default, players are teleported to the runecrafting altar of the first talisman in their inventory. However, players can also use a talisman on a Prismatic altar to bypass the default selection.
- Enter a Prismatic altar while having a Talisman staff or Astral tiara equipped.
- Enter one of the rifts in the inner ring of the Abyss.
Crafting runes at a runecrafting altar will turn the rune essence in your inventory into runes.

Combination runes
Combination runes are combined versions of elemental runes (Air, Water, Earth or Fire runes). Combination runes require level 1 Runecrafting. In order to craft combination runes of element A and B, players must bring rune essence, runes of element A and the talisman of element A to the altar of element B or vice versa. For example, to make Smoke runes, which are a combination of Air and Fire, players must bring rune essence and either air runes and an air talisman to the fire altar or fire runes and a fire talisman to the air altar.
