{{about|the skill|the enchantment|Runecrafting (Enchantment)}}
'''Runecrafting''' allows players to create [[Runecrafting#Runes|runes]] from [[Rune Slate|rune slates]] (''acquired through [[mining]]'') and essences. These runes are required for [[Enchanting#Scrollcrafting|Scrollcrafting]], using magic [[Ability|abilities]], consumed by some [[Enchantments]] and for [[Crafting]] certain items. Runecrafting also allows players to craft cloth from fibers (aquired through fishing). This cloth is used for crafting.  

==Levels==
Every 20 levels will increase the number of runes crafted in an action by 1. Intermediary levels will get a chance to craft an additional rune depending on how close it is to the next 20 level breakpoint.

==Runes/Essence==
To start runecrafting, players must first gather essence by doing various activities. A [[Rune Slate]] is used per rune made while 400 essence is used for each runecrafting action. Used Essence can be reduced with the [[Scroll of Runecrafting|runecrafting]] enchantment but a minimum of 400 is required to start crafting.

Crafting runes always provides 25 runecrafting experience for each rune crafted. 

3 essence is gathered for each relevant action and can be increased with the [[Enlightenment]] enchantment or consuming the corresponding talisman.
