Part Two of Runescape Runecrafting Skill: Talismans

Page content

In this part of the Runecrafting skill guide, talismans are looked at. Talismans are needed along with rune essence to craft runes. Depending on the type of talisman that you have, that will determine what altar you’ll need to go to in order to craft your rune. These talismans can be dropped by different foes you’ll encounter around the world of Runescape. When you get the one that you need, you bring it to the ruins of that type of altar, use it with the “mysterious runes” and you will teleport to where the actual altar is so that you can make the rune you want.

Different Talismans

There are many different talismans in the game, these are the ones that are currently available.

Overview

Talismans are greatly needed in runecrafting, in fact you can’t craft a rune without them. These are always something that you’ll need to gather before you attempt to make runes, so keep plenty of available space in your inventory bags for them. Make sure that you have knowledge about which altar you need to go to for the talisman that you have.
