RuneScape/Skills/Magic

Magic in RuneScape involves attacking opponents with spells as well as using spells to make money. It is one of the three combat skills.

Magic is very similiar to ranging as both skills involve attacking from a distance. It's best not to attack your opponents up clost with magic, as magic armour is not good against melee. In fact, magic's weakness is melee.

If you only raise magic as your combat stat, then you are called a "mage".

=Intro=

When players mage something, they attack using a spell, usually from a distance.

When using magic, players need runes, which are magic's ammunition. For each spell, there is a certain amount of runes needed. When players cast that spell, those runes are used up. This causes mages to continually buy more runes, making magic a money-consuming skill.

=Runes=

Runes are what are needed to mage. Below is a table with info on the different kinds of runes.
