Nature runes are runes used for transmutation spells such as Low and High Alchemy and Superheat Item. They are also used for the spells Bind, Snare, and Entangle, and several spells on the Lunar and Arceuus spellbooks. They can be purchased from many magic shops.
Nature runes can be crafted from pure essence by members with level 44 Runecraft at the Nature Altar, granting 9 experience per pure essence used. Players with 91 Runecraft will always craft two nature runes per essence.
Nature runes are one of the most popular non-elemental runes traded in Old School RuneScape due to the fact that many players need the runes to train their Magic using High Level Alchemy and Superheat Item.
Obtaining[edit | edit source]
There is a lava-surrounded island in high-level Wilderness, south-east of the Demonic Ruins, where 2 nature rune spawns may be telegrabbed. Each of these spawns yields 3-4 nature runes.
There are also some located on an island near the rock crabs by Rellekka that can be telegrabbed.
They also be obtained by stealing from locked chests in Ardougne and Rellekka. A Thieving level of 28 is needed to pick the locks.
Runecraft info[edit | edit source]
