Runecrafting

Runecrafting is a skill that allows players to craft their own runes for Magic spells. Runecrafting is a very slow skill to train through typical means, but rewards runes in the process that are useful in a multitude of ways. It is fairly click and attention intensive, but a beneficial skill to train for Ironmen and those looking to max.

The Guardians of the Rift will be the best form of Runecrafting training for a multitude of reasons. Completionist requirements, good rewards, fast XP, and more. A full guide on how to complete this minigame can be found here: Click Me.

The Abyss

The Abyss is an area of where players can Runecraft at a variety of altars without the use of Talismans or Tiaras. To travel to this area, you can speak to the Mage of Zamorak located in Arceuus house at home as shown below.

Pouches

Throughout the outskirts of The Abyss players can find abyssal creatures that drop pouches. Pouches, depending on the size, store a variety of extra essence inside of them. These pouches are dropped in ascending order based on their size, starting from small and ending with Giant. The chance of receiving a pouch is 1/100 from any Abyssal Creature. All Abyssal Creatures are aggressive, proceed with caution. The table below demonstrates more details regarding these pouches.

Pouch		Essence Stored	Drop Rate
	Small Pouch	3	1/100
	Medium Pouch	6	1/100
	Large Pouch	9	1/100
	Giant Pouch	12	1/100

Traveling to the Center (altars)

There are two methods to access the altars at the center of The Abyss.

1. Unlocking the Imbued Gratitude silver relic will allow players to instantly teleport to the center of The Abyss where the altars are located. This is a very worthy investment as this relic also allows rune pouches to store 50% more essence. If you are seriously training Runecrafting 1-99 then unlock this relic.

2. You will have to overcome one of the obstacles on the outskirts to be teleported into the center. Potential obstacles are demonstrated in the below table:

Obstacle		Skill Used	Tool Required
	Tendrils	Woodcutting	Axe
	Rock	Mining	Pickaxe
	Eyes	Thieving	N/A
	Gap	Agility	N/A
	Boil	Firemaking	Tinderbox
	Passage	None	N/A
