OSRS Ultimate Magic Guide

78191 0

There certainly isn't a shortage of ways to defend yourself in OSRS. If you don't like swords, shields, bows, and arrows, then you're going to want to check out the magical offerings in the game. Thanks to the Magic Skill, there's a myriad of ways to dispose of every monster and PK'er in the game.

Training Magic can be quite tricky but as with most combat skills in the game, there are a lot of ways to make that easier on your end. By the end of this guide, you'll be able to get to level 99 in the most efficient and effective way possible. You'll be the best spell-slinger in Gielinor in no time.

What is OSRS Magic?

Magic is one of the core Skills in OSRS. It's also one of the three combat classes alongside Attack and Range. With Magic, you're able to use combat spells, transport magic to get around the world, and even enchant items and convert them into coins through utility spells. Although you're leveling up only one Skill, you're actually getting a lot more in return.

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_1

 

It's very possible to finish the game without using Magic but the Skill opens up a lot of opportunities for money making, and making a lot of the boss fights in the game become easier. Some bosses are particularly weak to magic and you'll also need this skill to defend against Magic attacks too. Magic Defense is determined by Magic and your Defence level at a 70-30% split respectively. This makes it very important for many fights.

The Skill is available for both free-to-play and paid members of OSRS. However, you're going to miss out on a lot of spells if you're not a paying member using Magic.

Getting Runes

Before training Magic, you'll first need runes. Lots of them. This is your primary means of casting spells and without runes, you can't do any magic. Luckily, there are a few methods to getting runes. Each comes with its own benefits and upsides.

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_2

 

  1. Rune Crafting

You can craft your own runes any time using runic altars which can be found all over the world. This is the fastest way to get runes other than buying from players or from magic shops. To craft runes, you'll need rune essence/pure essence, and either a talisman or a tiara that works with the rune altar you're going to use.

  1. Buying From A Shop

If you have the gold for it, you can buy from shops or from players as well. The problem with this method though is that it can be expensive depending on where you're buying from.

  1. Killing Monsters

Some monsters drop runes as well. This method doesn't require anything on your end, and you can do it while training your other combat skills as well. The problem is that monsters don't always drop a reliable source of runes that's enough for training.

OSRS Spell Types

Getting to level 99 is very exciting for many reasons but perhaps the most important of which is the fact that you gain access to a myriad of cool spells in the game. On this part of the guide, we're going to detail all of the spells in the game. They're all categorized into four types which we'll explain below.

  1. Combat Spells

As the name suggests, these are magic mostly used in battle. Combat spells can be categorized into three subtypes: offensive spells for dealing damage, curse spells for disabling or debilitating opponents, and support spells which provide buffs to you and your allies.

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_3

 

  1. Teleport Spells

These are spells that instantly transport you to predetermined locations in the map. Gielinor is pretty large so these spells can help you save time when traveling around the world. It's perfect for training most of the skills efficiently as it cuts travel time by a huge margin. There are also some spells that can teleport you to the Wilderness to be careful.

  1. Utility Spells

These are spells used outside of combat. They can do things such as enchant items, bake pies, and more. They're pretty much like support spells but they can do other things other than buffs.

OSRS Magic Free-To-Play Training

While getting to level 99 Magic on a free account is hard and requires a lot of work, it's still very possible. If you follow this guide well, you can get to 99 on a free account in the most efficient way possible.

Level 1-17

At level one Magic, things can get pretty challenging due to the fact that you have a limited number of spells at your disposal. At this level, it's recommended that you use a staff as it's going to make it easier for you to cast spells when going into combat.

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_4

 

To make training easier, you'll need the following equipment:

  • Amulet of magic
  • Blue wizard robe
  • Zamorak monk bottom
  • Wizard hat

You can get to level 17 Magic by using Wind Strike on the cows around Lumbridge. What's even better is that you can also make some extra cash because of the cow hides that they drop. You can sell them so that you have more money for buying runs. However, it's better to tan the cowhides and use them so you can train your Crafting skill as well.

As you progress, you'll be able to unlock more spells that you can use such as Water Strike, Earth Strike, Fire Strike, and more. As you get higher in level, change things up by killing goblins, chickens, and others next.

Level 17-33

Once you hit level 17, it's time to use Wind Bolt. This is the most powerful spell that you can use at this level. For this, there are a couple of things that you can do to start getting to level 33.

  1. Fight Hill Giants in Edgeville Dungeon. These can drop big bones and limpwurt roots that can be used in training other Skills. Hill Giants are easy to fight since they can be killed from a safe distance.You can also fight Hobgoblins in Edgeville Dungeon if they're easier for you.
osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_5

 

  1. You can also fight lesser demons in the Wizards' Tower. Use this method to farm runes as well since these monsters can drop them usually.
  2. Fight Al Kharid Warriors in Al Kharid. This is a rewarding but risky method since the warriors tend to appear in large groups.
  3. You can farm three level 21 skeletons in Varrock Sewers. There's a safe spot you can attack them from on one side of the water.

Level 33-99

At level 33, it's time to begin using Telekinetic Grab. This earns you gold while getting Magic XP to get you to 99. This is obviously the longest part of the journey but it's the fastest method to get there on a free account. Telekinetic Grab also opens up lots of opportunities for AFK farming. Here are a few methods to try out.

  1. Head to the crafting guild and look for the hobgoblins behind the cow field. You can attack them and then start using Telekinetic Grab to get the limpwurt roots and nature runes that they drop.
  2. You can try grabbing Nature Runes in the Wilderness. However, due to the dangerous nature of the Wilderness, make sure not to bring anything that you can't afford to lose while training.
  3. In the Demonic Ruins, you can also kill Greater demons from a safe spot near the Nature Rune spawn. Again, this is a part of the Wilderness so don't take anything too valuable.

OSRS Pay-to-Play Magic Training

Like with everything else that is in Old School Runescape, being a member is a lot better when it comes to training your Magic. Since magic is a comprehensive skill, this guide will first go over all the different training methods in different spell books one by one. After that there will be a section for the fastest methods, afk methods and money making methods to 99 magic. If you are looking for the best route to 99 scroll down to "Fastest Magic Training Methods to 99".

Early Quests Levels

If you don't want to manually train early levels of magic you can complete Witch's Potion and Imp Catcher to immediately get 10 magic. After completing these you can move on to completing these quests in the order provided, to get straight to 34 magic.

Standard Spellbook

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_8

Enchanting Bolts

Enchanting bolts is one of the fastest ways to train your magic on the regular spell book. There are many bolts that a player can enchant, if you are doing this method you should always use the highest tier bolt that you can enchant (except for red topaz ). Enchanting bolts usually costs you money, however this solely depends on the grand exchange prices. Every now and then you can catch profitable bolt margins. If you are doing this method normally it takes 3 ticks for your character to enchant one set of bolts, however you can increase this rate by holding down the space bar and rapidly clicking on the spell. This sounds easy but actually it requires perfectly timed clicks.

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_9

 

When done correctly it will massively increase your exp rates. Bolts you can enchant are as follows: ( Exp rates assumes you are 1 ticking the spell )

  • Opal - Magic Level 4 - Exp/Hour 49k
  • Sapphire - Magic Level 7 - Exp/Hour 93k
  • Pearl - Magic Level 24 - Exp/Hour 159k
  • Emerald - Magic Level 27 - Exp/Hour 203k
  • Red Topaz - Magic Level 29 - Exp/Hour 181k
  • Ruby - Magic Level 49 - Exp/Hour 324k
  • Diamond - Magic Level 57 - Exp/Hour 368k
  • Dragonstone - Magic Level 68 - Exp/Hour 429k
  • Onyx - Magic Level 87 - Exp/Hour 533k

If you are thinking about using this method, stock up on bolts that you want to use beforehand, since there is a buying limit on all of them and you will be burning through them super fast.

Enchanting Jewellery

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_10

 

This is a pretty slow but afk method, you can also speed this method up by manually clicking on each jewellery. You should always use the highest tier of jewellery you can, to maximise your exp gains. This method will not cost you any money as it will most of the time break even or depending on the prices can even make you money.

Combat Spells / Splashing

Another really popular method to train your magic is via casting combat spells. There are 3 ways to use this method:

  1. First way is to equip the best magic gear you have available to you and go to either rock crabs, sand crabs or ammonite crabs. You can turn on your auto retaliate to afk 10 minutes at a time to train your magic.
  2. Second way is to equip armour that will give you -65 magic accuracy bonus. By doing this you are guaranteed to splash your spell. After this turn on your auto retaliate and attack any low level creature that won't be able to deal any damage to you. Like rats in Lumbridge. This will only give you the casting exp but it's fully afkable. You only need to interact once every 20 minutes.
  3. Third way to do this has a high slayer requirement of 87. Equip the best magic gear you can get your hands on and head to the kraken cave. Go into the kraken room and attack the main body of the kraken. Since the kraken is underwater it will not take any damage and will not attack you, however you will get the full exp of casting a spell and hitting the monster.
osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_11

 

High Level Alchemy / Teleporting / Splashing

At level 55 you unlock the most popular spell in the game which is high level alchemy. High level alchemy transforms items into coins and there are three reasons as to why it's really good for training your magic. First of all it's free exp, by alching the right items you will break even or make profit. Secondly it's afk, the only thing you have to do is to place the item that you are going to alch on the same spot as the high level alchemy spell after that you can either spam click your mouse or assign a mouse key on your keyboard and spam that. Third and the most important reason is that you can combine this spell with other things. Here are few combinations that you can do to really increase your overall gains in runescape:

  1. High Alch / Agility

You can high alch while running from one obstacle to the next.

  1. High Alch / Combat

You can high alch in between each of your attacks.

  1. High Alch / Splashing

You can high alch and splash on a monster. Since you are already manually clicking don't use combat spells for this. Instead use any "curse" spell. ( weaken, curse, enfeeble, stun… etc ) The ideal one is stun alching which requires level 80 magic. You can stun alch on the demon in the wizards tower or on the Zamorak mage imprisoned in the varrock castle.

  1. High Alch / Teleport

You can high alch and teleport. You can use any teleport available to you, however teleporting to camelot is the cheapest option. To do this properly you need your f keys setup to immediately switch back to your mage spell book to teleport after a high level alchemy.

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_12

 

To figure out which items to alch consult here.

Teleport Spamming

You can spam click the same teleport to train your magic. Camelot teleport is the cheapest out of all teleports however if you are going to do this it's recommended to mix it with high level alchemy.

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_13

Superheating

Starting at level 43 you can start casting the spell "Superheat". This allows you to smelt any ore into a bar using magic. The best ore to use for this spell is iron since it does not require coal to be turned into an iron bar.

Lunar SpellBook

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_14

 

Lunar spellbook is unlocked after the completion of Lunar Diplomacy, to get full access to the spells in the book you will also need to complete the quest Dream Mentor. If you are looking to train your magic without getting into combat, Lunar Spellbook is the way to go.

Humidify

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_15

 

At level 68 you can start casting humidify. Equip a steam battlestaff to save fire and water runes. Grab an inventory of clay and cast humidify. This method will not yield much exp but will be very profitable.

Profit per cast: 950 gp

Hunter Kit

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_16

 

At level 71 and with the completion of the Dream Mentor quest you will be able to cast the hunter kit spell. To do so, have a staff of earth equipped. This will not yield much exp but will be profitable.

Exp/Hour: 52k

Profit per cast: 432 gp

Superglass Make

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_17

 

At level 77 magic you can start casting this spell. Use a smoke battlestaff and giant seaweed for the most efficient inventory. In your inventory have 3 giant seaweeds and 18 buckets of sand for each cast.

Exp/Hour: 46k

Profit Per Cast: 1026 gp

Tan Leather

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_18

 

Starting at level 78 you can buy dragon hides from grand exchange and cast tan leather to tan them. This also requires you to complete the hard Fremennik Diary. Equip a staff of fire to do this. This spell tans up to 5 hides per cast. Profit varies depending on the G.E prices and the leather you use.

Exp/Hour: 97k

Profit per cast: 900 gp

String Jewellery

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_19

 

At level 80 magic you can start casting string jewellery. Equip a mud battlestaff and fill your inventory with the jewellery you want to string.

Exp/Hour: 150k

Profit Per Cast: 410 gp ( varies )

Plank Make

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_20

 

At level 86 magic you can start casting plank make. Equip a staff of earth and fill your inventory with mahogany logs to cast the spell. Once clicked the spell automatically keeps making planks which makes this method fairly afk. However if you want to fasten this method you can by manually clicking it.

Exp/Hour: 166k

Profit Per Cast: 413 gp

Ancient Magicks

Unlike the lunar spell book, the ancient spell book is fully focused on combat and houses the best magic training method in the game. To unlock this spellbook you will need to complete the quest "Desert Treasure".

osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_21

Bursting / Barraging

With ancient spellbook you unlock aoe spells and with them comes the greatest way to train your magic. To do this method you will need to have at least Monkey Madness 1 completed and to do it in the best way possible you will need to at least start Monkey Madness 2 and complete it up to the point where you enter MM2 tunnels.

For Money Madness 1 tunnels:

  1. Bring your greegree, 2 or 3 antidotes++, 2 emergency food ( you can negate damages with rapid heal ), an imbued heart if you have one, rune pouch with your runes to cast the spell, fill the rest of your inventory with prayer potions.
  2. For your equipment, you can either use your best magic gear or your best prayer gear and equip a salve amulet (Ei).
  3. In the tunnels find a spot with 5 skeletal zombies, put on protect melee and start killing them. ( stay under a rock while doing this to avoid getting damaged )
  4. Skeleton monkeys spawn from the bones, so to maximise your EXP you can pick up the bones and spread them out to 6 different tiles next to where you are killing them.
  5. Every 10 minutes get out of the aggro zone to reset their aggro timer to afk.
osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_22

 

For Monkey Madness 2 tunnels:

  1. Bring a light source, an imbued heart, rune pouch, 1 prayer potion and 2 -3 emergency food. ( the monkeys in this tunnel drop prayer potions so you can stay in the tunnels as much as you like )
  2. Equip your best magic gear
  3. To maximise your gains you can gain or hire 2 other accounts to stack the monkeys for you, however this is not necessary to do.
  4. Every 10 minutes get out of the aggro zone to reset their aggro timer to afk.
osrs_ultimate_magic_guide_23

 

To stack any npc in the game you have to run back and forth 3 tiles, in a L shape. This is usually done near a wall to stack all the mobs on 1 tile.

Slayer

There are some tasks in slayer that are really good to burst or barrage. It won't be as afk as killing the monkeys but you will be much more accurate with your spells by having an imbued slayer helm. The slayer tasks that you can barrage are:

  • Dust Devils
  • Greater Nechryaels
  • Warped Jellies
  • Smoke Devils
  • Abyssal Demons

Most of these monsters are not automatically agroed to you, to aggro them quickly bring a stack of cheapest darts you can buy and attack them one by one. After agroing all of the monsters stack them up on a corner to kill them with your spells.

Fastest Magic Training Methods to 99

  1. Levels 1 - 4: Wind strike any mob in the game.
  2. Levels 4 - 7: 1-Tick enchant opal bolts. Check the "Enchanting Bolts" section of this guide for more information.
  3. Levels 7 - 24: 1-Tick enchant sapphire bolts.
  4. Levels 24 - 27: 1-Tick enchant pearl bolts.
  5. Levels 27 - 49: 1-Tick enchant emerald bolts.
  6. Levels 49 - 57: 1-Tick enchant ruby bolts.
  7. Levels 57 - 68: 1-Tick enchant diamond bolts.
  8. Levels 68 - 70: 1-Tick enchant dragonstone bolts

Important Note: 1-Tick enchanting has the best exp rates throughout all levels, however it stops being sustainable as it costs a lot of money, all the bolts also have a low buy limit and it's hard to 1 tick enchant for hours and hours. You can continue enchanting if you please. From level 68 - 87 dragonstone and from 87 - 99 onyx bolts. I will provide an alternative method for getting 70 magic.

  1. Alternative Levels 55 - 70: If you don't want to enchant bolts, you can high alch and teleport or any other method that I have provided in the "High Level Alchemy / Teleporting / Splashing" section of this guide.
  2. Levels 70 - 94: At level 70, you will start ice bursting monkeys, in monkey madness tunnels. Either one of the tunnels is good, however you will get much higher exp rates in the MM2 tunnels. For more details check the "Bursting / Barraging" section of this guide. ( You can also start barraging alongside bursting at level 85, using the imbued heart and the preserve prayer. )
  3. Levels 94 - 99: At level 99 you should switch to using ice barrage instead of ice burst. For more details check the "Bursting / Barraging" section of this guide.

Profitable Magic Training to 99

This part is for people that want to mix up their magic training or for people that don't have that much spare gp to spend on magic training.

  1. Levels 1 - 7: Cast wind strike on any mob you see in the game.
  2. Levels 7 - 27: Starting at level 7 you can start making rings of recoil, which will actually make you profit. This method will profit you 70 - 100k
  3. Levels 27 - 43: At level 27 you will be able to cast level 2 enchant so you are going to be turning emerald rings into rings of duelling. This method will profit you around 100k.
  4. Levels 43 - 55: If you want to keep making money you can continue creating rings of dueling, however by spending some money you can get to level 55 much quicker. You can use superheat spell on iron ore to create iron bars. This will cost you around 200k gp to get to level 55. Alternatively you can teleport to camelot starting at level 45 to get to level 55, the cost is approximately the same.
  5. Levels 55 - 99: From here on out you can use high level alchemy if you choose so. You can buy items that will break even or items that will make you a profit, from grand exchange and alch them. It's highly recommended that you multitask while using high level alchemy, for more information check the "High Level Alchemy / Teleporting / Splashing" section of this guide.
  6. Levels 55 - 57: High alch items that will profit you or break even the cost of the runes.
  7. Levels 57 - 68: You can enchant diamond jewellery starting at this level. Turn diamond amulets into amulets of power to get to level 70 magic. This will either break even or make you a little bit of profit.
  8. Levels 68 - 78: From level 68 to 78 you will be enchanting dragonstone jewellery. To maximise your profits check the G.E prices for each of the items and choose the one with the highest profit margin.
  9. Levels 78 - 86: For this method you will need to complete the "Lunar diplomacy" and the "hard Fremennik Diary". Switch to your Lunar spellbook and cast tan leather until you reach level 86. To maximise your profits check the G.E prices for the best leather to tan.

Alternatively, if you don't want to complete the "hard Fremennik Diary", you can cast spin flax starting at level 76.

  1. Levels 86 - 99: Starting at level 86 and with the completion of "Lunar Diplomacy" and "Dream Mentor", you can start casting the plank make spell. Usually the mahogany planks will bring in the most profit, but check the prices before starting this method just in case.

AFK Magic Training to 99

  1. Levels 1 - 99: Splashing is the most afkable method that exists in the game. To splash, equip armor that will give you -65 magic bonus. Pick a monster that will not deal any damage to you and attack it with your auto-retaliate on. You can afk up to 20 minutes at a time. The spells you use is up to you, however fire spells are usually preferred. Here is the list of the spells, their exp/h and cost for a regular elemental staff.
  • Level 13 Fire Strike- EXP/H: 13,800 - Cost/H: 14,400
  • Level 35 Fire Bolt - EXP/H: 27,000 - Cost/H: 122k
  • Level 59 Fire Blast - EXP/H: 41,400 - Cost/H: 235k
  • Level 75 Fire Wave - EXP/H: 51,000 - Cost/H: 288k
  • Level 95 Fire Surger - EXP/H: 60,600 - Cost/H: 314k

There is one way to make this method faster which is to use a Harmonised Nightmare staff. This staff makes your casting speed faster by reducing the cast time by 1 tick. With this staff the exp rates looks like this:

  • Level 13 Fire Strike- EXP/H: 17,250
  • Level 35 Fire Bolt - EXP/H: 33,750
  • Level 59 Fire Blast - EXP/H: 51,750
  • Level 75 Fire Wave - EXP/H: 63,750
  • Level 95 Fire Surger - EXP/H: 75,750

Hope you found this guide useful and if you don't want to take any route provided in this guide. You can make your own route using the methods provided.

OSRS Spellbooks And List of Spells

You'll need a spellbook to use all of the spells in the game. There are four spell books and you

can only cast magic from the spellbook you're currently using. To streamline things, we're going to show you the spells for each of the spellbooks instead of categorizing them per spell type.

Standard Spellbook

This is the spellbook that's available to all players from the get-go. It's also the only spellbook that free-to-play players have access to. While the spells are pretty simple, all players, even those who are paying will need to start off using the standard spellbook.
