Cursed energy is a type of divine energy gained through the Divination skill. It can be collected from cursed wisps, located in the Wilderness Volcano. It can also be obtained by converting cursed memories: ratio of cursed memories to cursed energy scales to divination level. Enriched cursed memories converts to more cursed energy than cursed memories. Cursed energy is tradeable to other players but not tradeable on the Grand Exchange. When killed by another player, the energies are dropped to the killer as normal.
Energy obtained
This is the amount of energy obtained when siphoning from a Cursed wisp, converting a Cursed memory, or converting an Enriched cursed memory. Enrich wisps give the same amount as normal wisps. It scales based on divination level; lowering divination by methods such as God Wars Dungeon cold area will not decrease the convert amount. Free players however, are capped to the same rate as level 5.
Products
Cursed energy can be exchanged at a rate of 100:150 for any other kind of divine energy that the player has the Divination level to use, providing 150 experience per batch (1.5 experience per cursed energy). The only exceptions to this are elder and ancestral energy which cannot be created from cursed energy.
The "Profit per conversion" column of this table is calculated by assuming the player would collect 100 energies from corresponding wisp versus 100 energies from a cursed wisp, and then converting them to corresponding energy. Skill boosts from items like pulse cores work, allowing one to craft energy at a lower level than they normally could. That can be used to save a large amount of money by crafting incandescent energy far earlier than usual.
