Urn are new class of pot that you can decorate to make a Cracked, Fragile or Normal urn (depending on Crafting level) Additionally, Strong and Decorated Urns are available to members.

To make any kind of urn you need to go to a Pottery wheel and use 2 pieces of soft clay on the potter's wheel and select what kind of urn you want, then use the pottery oven to make the urn.

Urns catch scraps and offcuts while you are fishing, mining, smelting, cooking, woodcutting or killing demonic creatures, and they can be teleported away for an XP boost. To make an urn, you will need two lots of soft clay, rather than one. Take the soft clay to a potter's wheel and you will be given the option of making your choice of urn.

You will be asked to choose the quality of your urn: options include cracked, fragile, normal, strong and decorated (prayer urns are ordered according to the ash they collect: impious, accursed and infernal). The quality of urn determines the range of scraps that will be caught in it. With a cracked woodcutting urn, you will gather woodchip from normal, evergreen, achey, and dead trees, amongst others; with a fragile woodcutting urn you will be able to gather woodchip from those trees AND oak, willow and teak trees, amongst others.

On the crafting interface, choose a skill that you want your urn to be attuned to. You have a choice of fishing, mining, smelting, cooking, woodcutting and prayer. Once the type of urn has been chosen, it will be formed and you are ready to fire it in an oven. Your last task is to add a rune to the urn, so that it can be teleported to Ernie, the urn lover in Varrock, so he can do whatever sinister thing he does with them. The rune required is different for each pot:


 * Fishing - Water rune
 * Cooking - Fire rune
 * Mining - Earth rune
 * Smelting - Fire rune
 * Woodcutting - Earth rune
 * Prayer - Air rune

The urn is now complete. With it in your inventory, you can train your related skills as normal and slowly fill the urn with scraps and offcuts (prayer urns will automatically pick up ). You can check how full your urn is at any time by right-clicking on it. Once the urn is full, right-click and teleport it to nasri to get your XP prize in the skill type of your urn. Note: You can only nasri if you have NOT started filling another urn in that same skill (started urns are those that are fitted with a rune and have scraps inside them, but are not full). You will need to finish the urn that you have started filling before you can fill another of the same skill type. You may have multiple urns from various skills, however: you could start filling a cracked fishing urn while you are still filling a cracked mining urn, for example. You may only have 10 non-empty urns in one skill type at a time (these are urns with any number of scraps in them: a pot with one scrap in, all the way to a pot that is completely full). Unfired urns, urns without runes, and empty urns with no runes do not count towards this total. A fired urn without a rune attached is tradeable; all other urns are untradeable.
