Battle-mage armour

Battle-mage armour is a hybrid armour set, released on 23 August 2011, and requires level 85 Magic, level 85 Strength, and level 85 Defence to wear. It is an untradeable set of armour obtained by playing minigames, and outside of minigames is purely cosmetic. Inside the Castle Wars, Soul Wars, Fist of Guthix, and TzHaar Fight Pits minigames, the armour gives good bonuses to magic attack, magic defence and melee defence (roughly equivalent to the magic attack and defence of Virtus armour, and the melee defence of Torva armour, with negative ranged defence).

When all five parts of the set are worn, it gives a 15% damage bonus to all attacks on other players. Note that although a helmet cannot be worn in Castle Wars, the bonus damage will be in affect if the battlemage helm has been obtained.

A recommended setup for a Battle-Mage hybrid within one of the 4 affected minigames is to use a chaotic maul (if you don't mind losing the charges) or an armadyl godsword, with the ancient spellbook activated and equipped and enough runes for around 1000 casts of Blood Barrage. This will make your player incredibly hard to kill by meleers and mages, and thus 90% of soul wars, castle wars and fist of guthix. It is also useful for dealing with "Far-casters" in the tzhaar fight pits because of its high melee defence and magic defence when attending the game for other types of hybrid armour.

The complete set may be placed in the Armour case in the Costume room of a player-owned house.
