Calculator:Runecrafting/Combination runes

This is a static calculator. It does not take user inputs, but it does use changing prices from the Grand Exchange Market Watch. If prices appear to be outdated, purge the page by clicking here.

The following table uses live Grand Exchange Market Watch prices to calculate the profit or loss from creating combination runes.

This table assumes use of a binding necklace (currently 1,863 coins coins for 15 charges, or 124.2 coins coins per charge) as well as the spell Magic Imbue (currently 1,062 coins coins for each cast if cast with a steam battlestaff or mystic steam staff). Without Magic Imbue, talismans are prohibitively expensive. However, neither of these costs are factored into the calculations below, as the number of runes made and uses of binding necklace charges can vary from player to player.

This table does not, however, take into account the costs of various teleport spells or items, as these also vary widely according to players' preferences, as well as what is being crafted and where.
