Mind rune

The Mind rune is one of the Non-elemental runes. Mind runes can either be bought from the various Rune shops found across RuneScape, created from rune essence through the Runecrafting skill, procured from drops by killing monsters, or picked up from spawns on the ground. Mind runes carry properties of weak thoughts.

Mind rune are used for the strike spells including Wind Strike, Water Strike, Earth Strike, and Fire Strike (which are the weakest spells in all books), as well as the Magic Dart spell. Other than low-level training and the usage of magic dart in slayer tasks and the Barrows minigame, mind runes are usually considered useless by many high-leveled players.

The mind altar is located north of Falador, in between the Goblin Village and the Ice Mountain, right before you get to the Wilderness. Mind runes are craftable at level 2 using the Runecrafting skill. Crafting mind runes provides 5.5 Runecrafting experience per rune or pure essence used (154 xp for an entire inventory).

Additionally, if you have no mind runes in your bank, inventory, or if you have not dropped them right under you, you can obtain 30 mind runes from the Magic Tutor in Lumbridge along with 30 air runes. You can only ask the Magic Tutor for these runes every 30 minutes.
