Elemental rune detail

Elemental runes can replace the function of Air, Water, Earth, or Fire runes: File:Air Rune.png, File:Water Rune.png, Earth rune, or File:Fire Rune.png. They are unique runes used in the Barbarian Assault, Fist of Guthix, and Stealing Creation activities. Each rune can act as either a single fire, air, water, or earth rune.

Elemental runes within Fist of Guthix

At the beginning of every Fist of Guthix activity, each player receives 1,000 elemental runes, along with 300 catalytic runes. In Fist of Guthix, when you put elemental runes in the price checker, it says that they are worth 2 gold each, even though you can never bring those runes out of Fist of Guthix to sell.

Elemental runes within Stealing creation

Unlike Fist of Guthix, during the Stealing creation activity players must make their own elemental runes as well as catalytic runes. These are processed in a special kiln from one of 5 grades of sacred clay and yield different amounts of runes. Players must have higher Runecrafting levels to process higher levels of sacred clay as shown in this table:

Class of clay Amount made Level to make
Class 1 15 Level 1 Runecrafting
Class 2 30 Level 20 Runecrafting
Class 3 45 Level 40 Runecrafting
Class 4 60 Level 60 Runecrafting
Class 5 75 Level 80 Runecrafting

Elemental runes within Barbarian assault

Due to a recent update, Barbarian Assault now uses elemental and catalytic runes, instead of the standard ones. Attackers can retrieve these runes from the Attacker dispenser stand.

Elemental runes within Dominion Tower

If a player is fighting in the Dominion Tower and their opponent is one that requires them to use magic, elemental runes may be provided on the ground for use against the boss.
