Boots of lightness

Boots of lightness are weight-reducing equipment and are used during the Temple of Ikov (quest). They can be found behind spiderwebs in a darkened room in the Temple of Ikov (dungeon), a lightsource and a knife or any weapon with a slash attack is needed to get to them. The boots will respawn every minute or so, making it very convenient to pick up several pairs on a single visit.

Boots of lightness lower the player's weight when worn, taking 4.5 kilograms off the player's back. Because of this unusual attribute, Boots of lightness are extremely popular with runecrafters, players training agility, and various other uses, because it keeps the total weight of a player down so that run energy decreases slower. This, however, only works on pay to play worlds. In free to play, they keep their inventory weight of 0.3kilograms. Their combat statistics are similar to Leather boots, with only slightly better stab defence, making them a poor choice for combat situations (in comparison to Metal boots).

Contrary to popular belief, you do not need to complete, start or even have any of the requirements for the Temple of Ikov quest to access and wear these boots.
