Levels 1-99: Training Methods and Strategies

Levels 1-50: Runespan

Quests:

Complete "Rune Mysteries" for access to the Runecrafting skill.

Training Method: Runespan

From level 1 onwards, train exclusively in the Runespan.

Focus on siphoning nodes and islands with higher-level runes as you level up.

Prioritize higher-level nodes for more experience per hour.

Levels 50-77: Abyss Runecrafting

Quests:

Complete "The Great Brain Robbery" for access to the Runecrafting Guild.

Training Method: Abyss Runecrafting

Start crafting runes at altars using the Abyss. This method offers higher experience rates but involves more risk due to potential player killers.

Bring a small amount of essence and use the Abyss to enter the runecrafting altars.

Utilize a Demonic Skull for increased experience but be cautious of player killers.

Opt for higher-level runes for better experience gains.

Levels 77-99: Combination Runes

Quests:

Complete "Devious Minds" for the ability to craft soul and blood runes.

Complete "Fate of the Gods" for the ability to craft death and astral runes.

Complete "Children of Mah" for access to combination runes.

Training Method: Combination Runes

At level 77, start crafting combination runes for faster experience.

Opt for combination runes that provide higher experience rates (e.g., mud runes, lava runes). Use the best available essence for optimal experience gain.

Training Methods

1. Runespan: This is a Runecrafting training area accessible through a portal in the Wizards' Tower. It offers a less traditional and more AFK method of training Runecrafting. You'll gather runespan points and exchange them for experience.

2. Crafting Runes at Altars: This is the traditional method of crafting runes using pure essence or rune essence. Each altar corresponds to a different type of rune. As your Runecrafting level increases, you'll unlock access to more runes and potentially better methods of crafting them.

3. Combination Runes: After completing the "Children of Mah" quest, you can craft combination runes, which give more experience per rune crafted. This can be a faster method of training.

4. Runesphere: Randomly spawning in the world, the runesphere can be a good source of experience when active. You'll need to siphon its energy and gather the runes.

Tips:

1. Dailies and Weeklies: Some activities like the Runecrafting Tears at the Runespan or the wicked hood's daily teleport to altars can provide extra experience.

2. Bonuses: Utilize items like the ethereal outfit, Demonic Skull (increased experience but increased risk), and Runecrafting familiar pouches to boost your experience gains.

3. Efficiency: For the most efficient training, plan your routes between altars, use a familiar with a "take BoB" option, and consider using presets to speed up banking.

4. Abyss Runecrafting: The Abyss offers a faster method of crafting runes, but it's riskier due to potential player killers. Be cautious and well-prepared if you choose this method.

5. Experience Boosts: Utilize experience-boosting items and bonuses like the Enlightenment aura during its activation period.

Remember that the road to 99 Runecrafting is a long one, but using a combination of the above methods, quests, and tips can make the journey more efficient and enjoyable. Always check in-game and community resources for the most current information and strategies.
