Water Strike, a free-to-play Magic spell, is the weakest water spell in the standard spellbook. It requires one Water rune and one Air rune to cast. The base damage of this spell is 48, and it scales up to 211 at 22 Magic.

This is one of the few attack methods that can damage Salarin the Twisted. When used against him, the spell will either "miss" or deal 100 damage.

• update 20 November 2012 (Update):
  • Elemental spells no longer require mind, chaos, death, or blood runes.

• update 24 June 2010 (Update):
  • We’ve changed the animations for all of the Strike, Bolt, Blast, Wave and Surge spells (for all four elements). These spells now use some of the game engine's newer features such as particles, and have updated sound effects to accompany them.

  • Other small changes concern the Strongholds of Security and of Player Safety, where only those in need of information will be quizzed, and the magic spell icons, which have had a graphical update.
