For lvl 50 and more in magic Mage Training in alchemy, was very good xp, you can earn 5lvl in 1 or 2 hours. Also the magic was updapted soon ?

I tested this a moment ago with Flames of Zamorak, which probably should be added by these spells.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The effects of these staves are cumulative. I tested it against someone, and it randomly dropped their level. Low drop was 2, but in 5 casts (with 1 splash), I managed to get their Magic level down from 64 to 32 (he was wearing metal armor).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Don't know if it's cumulative with other spells, but I'd have to assume so.

Here is the new look of magic spell book interface

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The pic on the left shows your mage spell book when your mouse is not on top of any spells, and number 2 shows how it looks like when it is on top of a spell

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Edit: lol, just realized = there was no pic of the mage spell book in its previous form either -.-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But i just leave this here, if ya wanna put it in there or something =/

[Wachtwoord]

I just have a very minor update to the lunar mage guide.

 

 

 

With the superglass making spell, you don't need to cook the seaweed, it will be cooked automaticly if you cast the spell. And you get aproximalty 1.3 glass each set of items used instead of 1.5.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I said it would be very minor =P.

[n4h]

At the start of the guide it stats that:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Soul rune Required for high level curse spells. Can only be bought from the magic guild or from fellow players."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In fact it can be bought Ali's stall in al-karid for 375gp each.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It can also be bought from Baba Yaga in the Lunar Island.

Sub-heading: The Spells

 

 

 

It says that the watchtower teleport takes 3 earth runes and 2 law runes.

 

 

 

It is only 2 earth runes and 2 law.

 

 

 

 

Just for the sake of being right :)

Could not find this information on tip.it at all, I only noticed it was missing after someone asked in help & advice.

 

 

 

Saradomin Staff: Reduces prayer points by 10.

 

Zamorak Staff: Reduces magic by 5 temporarily.

 

Guthix Staff: Reduces defence by 5 temporarily.

 

 

 

 

 

The effects only work on the first hit of your opponent.

 

 

 

Could also be added onto the mage arena guide.

 

 

 

I was trying to figure out if the effect was every time you used the staff or what - you've stated it is only the first hit. I assume it's 100% of the time on the first hit. Let me know if it can miss, ok?

 

 

 

Wait, this can't be quite right, as darkblade states above the effects are cumulative. So it's possible for it to happen more than once. Please, someone tell me: does it happen for EACH TIME YOU CAST THE SPELL USING THE STAFF, OR DOES IT *SOMETIMES* HAPPEN AND *SOMETIMES* DOESN'T?

 

 

 

Thanks to anyone who can help.

If we can coordinate in game, I can pull out each staff and we can determine it once and for all. We can use my house to test it so that we don't have to worry about prayer.

[pokemama 29 May - ooh, good catch! Fixed.]

[Norton3000]

The spell experience table doesn't contain Ape Atoll teleport. You may want to add that.

 

 

 

Edit: You should also correct the enchantment spells. They don't include necklaces.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[pokemama 29 May: yep, while doing updates this weekend I noticed that one was missing along with the house teleport - already got the data and added it to the draft. Also already added necklaces and bracelets to enchantment spells. Update should be released shortly.]

[vlad_the_old]

You probably need to change the table of the god spells to show that the Claws of Guthix spell can be cast using the Void Knight mace

 

 

 

 

 

[pokemama 26 June: hmmm, I had the vague idea that this went into the draft , as I distinctly recall researching this and writing it upper your previous submission ... it may have vanished into the ether because I was having some difficulties saving the guide draft. >.< Will be sure to add in next release. Thanks!]
