Charm sprites are fast flying creatures that can be hunted with a Yaktwee stick and Sprite lure.
There are 3 different versions of Charm Sprites:
- Gleaelg (130 experience), yellow smoke trail
- Tranart (200 experience), orange smoke trail
- Slithtils (400 experience), purple smoke trail
When you reveal the charm sprites, one, two, or three will appear. A Gleaelg will always appear first; if two charm sprites appear, then it will be both a Gleaelg and Tranart, and if three appear, it will be one of each charm sprite. It is not hard to catch all three if you have quick reactions.
On the 100th, 1,000th and 10,000th capture of each type of sprite you will be notified in the chatbox and it will appear on your adventurer's log (counts separate for each type of sprite). There is only a reward for the 1,000th capture; after you've caught 1,000 charm sprites you can upgrade your yaktwee stick to an enhanced yaktwee stick. This grants you a 5% xp boost in ALL hunter activities in which you can wield the stick, and the more rare charm sprites will spawn more often.
Hunter level
Requires level 72 in the Hunter skill to be caught (Boosts can't be used).
Habitat(s)
South of Tree Gnome Stronghold
Hunting the creatures
To start hunting the sprites, you must first buy a Yaktwee stick and Sprite lure from Yaktwee Swinmari Cianta who sells both items for 2000 coins each.
- Target a shaking bush. The player will throw the Spirit Lure close to the bush.
- Immediately target the Spirit Lure you just threw by clicking it. This will create a minor explosion that will scare the creatures out of the bush.
- Click on each of the creatures to catch them. (You don't have to wait between each one. Red sparks will come out of your Yaktwee stick to hit the creatures almost simultaneously)
In the whole area around the Cracked dolmen are Neverberry bushes spread out, which may contain the critters. You have to target a bush that is shaking (Only moving bushes contain the sprites). After throwing a spirit lure next to the bush, "zap" it with your Yaktwee stick. One to three charm sprites will appear, proceed to then zap them all (You can start zapping a new bush as soon as your lure vanishes from the ground, and for faster xp it is recommended to zap a second bush while still catching the sprites).
As long as you start to zap your lure (and the animation has started) before the bush stops shaking, it will still release sprites when the lure explodes.
Transportation
- The fastest way to get here is by using the Spirit tree teleport to the Tree Gnome Stronghold and walking south out the doors then southwest to the hunter area.
- Another way to get there is using the Book of Char teleport then walk south-east.
Drops

Clicking combine will combine your slices and create charms in one click. 5 slices of the same type are needed to form 1 charm. There's also a chance that you obtain a mystical charm slice. This charm slice can be used to finish a charm if you don't have enough charm slices of that type (e.g. if you have 4 blue charm slices and 1 mystical charm slice you can make a blue one) or can be used to make any type of charm without the normal charm slice of that type (5 mystical charm slices can be used to make any charm). Mystical charm slices are best used to make additional blue charms or finish off blue charms, as blue charms are the rarest.Over time the slices will become balanced in numbers (example 200 green, 200 gold, 200 crimson, 200 blue), which means that each type of slice has the same rarity.
The relatively high rate of blue charms from this activity makes it possibly a good training activity, however, the low rate of charms overall (1/5th of sprites caught) makes this method not very commonly used. A better method might be catching spirit implings in puro-puro at level 54 Hunter.

Trivia
- The sprites' names are all palindromes.
- Strange rocks are obtainable through charm sprite hunting.
- The sprites look like a miniature version of the Tri-pods from the film "War of the Worlds".
