: Runes for
Spells, Lvl 60 magic
: Hard
: Mage Arena (West of the Member
Wilderness Gate in Level 55 Wilderness)
: This quest allows you to learn
3 new magic spells and get 3 new staffs.
1. You can teleport to the high level Members-only Wilderness using the teleport lever located west of the palace
in Ardougne. Go north, cut the web and go west towards the arena. Enter the building north of the arena, cut the two webs
and go down the ladder. It’s a safe house down there and other players may not attack you. Down there is a Bank and
a Rune Shop. The guy who sells runes is named Lundail, and the banker's name is Gundai. Take
1. Hat (Canifis) (or Mystic
hat; both have better magic stat than Gnome or Wizard)
2. Blue wizard shirt (or Mystic robe)
3. Zamorak skirt (or Mystic
robe)
4. Leather gloves (or Mystic gloves)
5. Leather boots (or Mystic boots or Wizard boots if you have them)
6.
Air staff (Staff of air, Air battlestaff or Mystic air staff)
7. 15 lobsters
8. 100 Death runes will do
9. Weapon
with Slash Attack
10. Elemental runes to cast the spell - if you take Air staff bring Fire runes, if you take Fire staff
then bring Air runes
11. 1 defence potion can help, 1 prayer potion
Note that armour, such as the Farseer helm or Splitbark
armour, is not allowed for this quest.
The 3 "x" points show where the 3 guys are.
2. Now talk to Kolodion, the Mage Arena guide.
After a lot
of talking, Kolodion will teleport you into the Mage Arena. Remember you must have Level 60 magic or Kolodion won't talk to
you.
3. Remember that you can use Protection from Magic, but your Attack and Stregth go to zero so only magic
can be used .You will have to defeat Kolodion the Mage - a few Fire Blasts will do; one Ogre - regular level; one Giant Spider
- probably the biggest you'll ever see; and one Black Demon. They are all easy enemies. Something good is that you can use
Magic Protection and the final Demon (level 113) is way easy, but be warned you will be hit for 19 when you're teleported
back. If you die while trying to do it you will have to start all over again.
Here some of the monster images
for Kolodion.
4. Talk to Kolodion again and step into the pool. Talk to the Staff Seller and now choose the staff you want to use
- do not buy it. You need to pray at a God statue - through the tunnel.
Guthix statue
After you have chosen, pray at the God you want for a God Cape. It will appear on the ground beside
you. Zamorak is black with red trim, Saradomin is blue with yellowish trim, Guthix is dark green with lighter green trim.
After you've gotten your cape, talk again to the Staff Seller, he will reward you with the staff of the God that matches your
cape. Remember that you can use the 3 God staffs if you want, but to get another staff just buy a staff for 80k. If you want
a different cape, pray at a different statue. (Note: you can only have one God cape at a time, the Runescape gods are jealous
gods!)
Before quitting, ask Kolodion how you can use your staff outside the Mage Arena. Kolodion will tell you
that you must cast your God spell (the spell of the God you chose) 100 times, inside of the arena to charge the staff. Then
after it's charged you can use the staff anywhere. Before going outside take some Blood runes and go inside the Arena and
use it a couple of times just to learn the spell. Remember that the God you follow will not attack you inside the Arena. The
2 others you are not following will attack you and hit damage up to 15. Also be very aware that YOU CAN BE PK'D (killed by
other players) inside the Arena while practicing your spell!
It took me less than 50 Death runes to kill all the
monsters, and I used about 7 Lobsters.
Which staff to take:
Zamorak Staff: Hits harder than the other
staffs and it reduces Magic.
Guthix Staff: Hits good and reduces Defence.
Saradomin Staff: Hits good and reduces Prayer.
The 3 God Staffs each cost 80k at the shop
