fun fact for whatever reason you can get the unlimited fire rune effect from the tome of fire when using ibans blast. you don't get the damage boost but having unlimited fire runes with ibans blast is nice. my guess is that since you cant boost the damage jagex decided it wouldn't cost you charges.
This is the case with any spell that requires fire runes. I wasn't saying it doesn't count as fire runes for ibans blast. Only that you dont get the 50% boost
Not sure if anyone else has mentioned it but the Mystic Smoke Staff, not sure about the Smoke Battlestaff, has a 10% damage boost when using the standard spellbook making it pretty useful when combining it with the Tome of Fire.
@@viviblue2329 yep that to, can the staff of the dead autocast spells from the standard book? because if so it does kind of make the Smoke staffs useless.
Get a Kodai asap, incredibly good for bursting/barraging. There was a reddit post recently on 07scape which showed that kodai is almost 200m cheaper, has more dps and is cheaper to use then max mage with a master wand when bursting/barraging. Tl;dr : Kodai with proselyte or even monk robes is better then max mage and a Master's wand
Keep it up and if you have an elemental staff you need a stack of air runes since earth and fire strikes need them. Since this is RS 2 the actual name for OSRS another choice for mages is using Runite plate armour or metal armour. Saw this today
I love how in depth this is and informative. But as someone that is just starting as a mage I am so lost. I’m just trying to figure out what kind of gear to start out with to be honest. Great video for more experienced players. I am just a noob peasant.
If you're only just starting with made, you're probably low level and can't wear much stuff anyways so there's not a lot of options. Magic has very few lower level options in general (Jagex tried to fix that with the Warding skill but it didn't pass). I sectioned the guide for different levels and what not. You'll need to at least tell me your magic lvl if you want me to help more than this guide lol
one thing you should have mentioned is void has same accuracy as ahrims with better defenses and does not degrade, also while boots of brimestone arent mage specific it should be noted for its positive mage attack and high defenses
HI I'm a newer player and just fond your guides and it's helpful. I've been messing around just doing quest and using high alchemy. I have 40 defense and 62 magic. What should my set up be? I have the steam battlestaff, a rune shield, and infinity gear, but based on this video I feel like I should be using something else at this rate.
Hey mate i do have a question - I want to train mage while doing slayer tasks chilling doing so, but im wondering what is the setup i should go for towards doing that? im unsure on which staff, my combat stats are all maxed except mage and prayer which is 93 can you give me some advice on a nice setup to use? if so i apprecaite the time for you to reply. thank you :)
You have a high level, trident of seas or trident of swamp would do well, depends of your money for each, one cost 50k other 5milion, for 3 more max dmg.
iban staff + tome of fire is op. 50 atk 50 magic req. upgraded iban staff. you only need 1 death run per cast. 25 max dmg. 700k for tome 200k for iban staff upg. iban staff don't take charges from the tome of fire but yous till get unlimited fire runes with at least 1 page in the book
If you're using a fire spell then yes it will use a charge. Technically the burnt pages are used from the 50% damage bonus, NOT from just using fire runes. That's why if you alch with the book it will not use any charges
Ahrim's > Infinity for sure. Though infiinty has more set pieces than Ahrim's. So Infinity Boots for instance are still good to have (until you can upgrade to eternal boots)
It depends what you're fighting. For example being on task you'd use a Slayer Helm (i). Farseer helm isn't a bad default for a mage helm though. Or an Ahrim's hood if you haven't done the quest
It's about as good as a master wand for those levels, which isn't horrible. But in general you're gonna get really slow kills at those levels (depending on what you're fighting too) so I don't really suggest using PvM to train 70-75 unless you're using ancients. This sceptre can't autocast ancients
Nightmare staff isn't good unless you add an orb to it (which are very expensive) Smoke staff is alright with the tome of fire as long as you're using fire spells ofc. Generally Iban's blast until lvl 75, then switching to a trident is the way to go though
You’re level has NO EFFECT on damage dealt for example a level 75 caster can hit 20 with fire wave and a level 99 can still only hit a 20 this is always true for SPELLBOOK SPELLS (built in spells do scale) magic strength from gear, the tome of fire and the smoke battle staff are the only ways to up the damage of a given spell and all multiply so fire wave with tome of fire smoke staff and a 17% strength bonus would calculate as follows 20x1.1x1.5x1.17=38 max hit
You don't have to pick a class in OSRS so you can use both a sword a staff. You'll just need the corresponding attack or magic level to wield the weapon
Does anyone know on here what I bought then because I have the black. And gold robe and hat and wear the zamy pants with the 15k magic amulet but I am playjng f2p so im not sure if you have a list of that stuff or if I just spent 700k to look good lol can anyone help me ??
Book of darkness is ok. It gives +10 mage accuracy, and +5 prayer. Mage accuracy is rarely that important, though not useless. The prayer bonus is pretty solid, but in general the book isn't super useful
Most of these are members items, if you're on F2P you won't find them on the GE. Otherwise you'll need to be more specific which ones you're looking for
@koruisneko Was just making a bit of good fun about his wrong way of saying staves, lol. (I actually had to rewatch the video because you decided to comment on something a year old and I forgot what it was about). Partypooper.
@@jacobarnoldmusic Well English isn't my native language so I do make mistakes, but I'm always trying to learn it better, so could you clarify what I typed wrong?
Edits:
Magic level only adds magic strength to these weapons/spells: Magic Dart, Salamanders, Tridents, and the Sanguinesti Staff
Y DID U NOT TALK ABOUT THE BLOOD BARK ROBE SET?!?!!?!?
FAIL. 8/
Love how straight forward easy and informational these videos are. I keep coming to these. I’m gonna sub

The88shrimp and accuracy also it’s on the battlestaff

awesome. I would have included book of darkness though.
Ryan Malone horror from the deep suggestion as well as emphasizing the need for the cheap book first.
Best osrs guides I’ve seen on TH-cam keep up the good work !

it used to be very likely to splash teleport spells on RS-Classic, then you couldn't cast any spells for 20 seconds, good times. :D

smoke staff gives a damage bonus on the standard spellbook
Yeah 10% so not bad at all
Smoke staff+tome of fire to cast fire surge is owie

This is kinda late, But would you recommend void over Mystic gear? I already have range void so Id only need to farm for the helm. Thanks!
I love you. Thank you for uploading this guide

Great video, this noob here blesses you greatly.
Is the Master wand still a great option if you dont use the Ancient spellbook, but just the regular spellbook?
Very helpful video thank you 🙏🏽
Keep up the good work Dak.
If Magic attack bonus isn't as important shouldn't bloodbark armour be very good choice? As it offers highest defence stats for mage armour

2:43 melle gear like that, but with the most basic staff, it gives you a +10 to magic accuracy
good guide :) started the game 4 days ago helped me out alot !
Thank you for the Help boss man :D!

V useful vid. Quick question, is the bloodbark set bad? I think it looks the coolest and I just got the requirements to wear it. 😬
A bit late but bloodbark is pretty decent if you use blood spells for pvp
@@MaxiemumKarnage hey, thanks!
Probably unhelpful now but 14:30 i see “chrrged” in lieu of “charged”
Great guide as per, is there an updated farming one coming soon?
Farming is my next guide (not next video necessarily but I'd like it to be out next week)
Also it’s a tome of fire, not ‘tomb’ :)
Don’t battle staves give a +1 to magic attack over the regular element staves?
Thx
Dam you went in, you could be a rapper.
What about dagon hai? 70 magic 30 def. wondering if Dagon Hai or my void mage is bis for my 75 att zerk 🤔
dagon hai came out in october 2019 and this video was made in august 2019
excellent
oh wow, you explained how to use staff weapons to auto attack. thanks, that's what I was here for.
Also I have a great question. When combining fire tomb with a battlestaff or regular does it still use burnt page charges?
I would also like to know this
If you're using a fire spell then yes it will use a charge.
Technically the burnt pages are used from the 50% damage bonus, NOT from just using fire runes. That's why if you alch with the book it will not use any charges
So should I sell my full infinity set? And just use arhims instead with serp/slayer helm depending on what I’m doing?
Ahrim's > Infinity for sure. Though infiinty has more set pieces than Ahrim's. So Infinity Boots for instance are still good to have (until you can upgrade to eternal boots)
Liked and subbed. Ty sir
whats better void mage or mystic?
My question is can you buy those battlestaffs in the GE
Hey great guide but I am wondering what helm you recommend if i'm 80 magic but cant afford ancestral. Is Serpentine the only option?
It depends what you're fighting. For example being on task you'd use a Slayer Helm (i). Farseer helm isn't a bad default for a mage helm though. Or an Ahrim's hood if you haven't done the quest
@@TheEdB0ys Thanks man, I have farseer and slayer and I'll buy the hood now.
Where does Thammaron's Sceptre fit into this? Specifically looking at the uncharged version - is it a good option for PvM from 70-75?
It's about as good as a master wand for those levels, which isn't horrible. But in general you're gonna get really slow kills at those levels (depending on what you're fighting too) so I don't really suggest using PvM to train 70-75 unless you're using ancients. This sceptre can't autocast ancients
He did it. He finally did it.........FINALLY :D
Worth keeping a bryophytas staff to use for combat or just go with ancient staff?
Bryophyta's isn't for combat really. Ancient will be better, especially since it can autocast ancient spells
thanks. decided to sell it for some armor, since im still a ways off from being able to use it for elite clue scrolls
Nice video ;-)
Should I use the smoke battel staff untill 50? Or the void knight mace?
What would you recommend bud as I see the choice for mid to low level staffs isn't that great
can u use the trident of the sea regular spells instead of the built in?
good guide
nice job
Thanks!
Hay bud I see you didn't say about the void knight mace to cast would you recommend it?
I would not recommend the void knight mace. It's fairly useless
@@TheEdB0ys OK bud much appreciated would you recommend the nightmare staff?
Or mabey a smoke staff with fire book?
Nightmare staff isn't good unless you add an orb to it (which are very expensive) Smoke staff is alright with the tome of fire as long as you're using fire spells ofc. Generally Iban's blast until lvl 75, then switching to a trident is the way to go though
@@TheEdB0ys yeah that's what I'm doing bro with fire spells for the 50% bouns just thought the staff was OK. But ty very much anway
Nice
whay staff or wand would u suggets for magic 40?
Depends on which elemental runes you're using while training.
do you have guides for pures accounts or for melee and range?
saludos good videos bro
I do have range and melee guides. Nothing about pures sorry
@@TheEdB0ys well you have a new idea for a video mate LOL (need to check your other guides)
Blood bark is now a good option, better than mystic robes.
Sooo what is better for magic DPS seers ring(i) or brimstone ring because of the passive effect?
Solely for magic dps, seers ring (i) hands down.
You forgot the void knight mace
You’re level has NO EFFECT on damage dealt for example a level 75 caster can hit 20 with fire wave and a level 99 can still only hit a 20 this is always true for SPELLBOOK SPELLS (built in spells do scale) magic strength from gear, the tome of fire and the smoke battle staff are the only ways to up the damage of a given spell and all multiply so fire wave with tome of fire smoke staff and a 17% strength bonus would calculate as follows 20x1.1x1.5x1.17=38 max hit
This needs to be known
There is so much misinformation
Everywhere
Also the slayer mask and black mask imbued give a buff
I think everyone knows this already
Yo can I have both a sword and a staff in the game as a mage or just a staff?
You don't have to pick a class in OSRS so you can use both a sword a staff. You'll just need the corresponding attack or magic level to wield the weapon
What about skeleton bone armor? I have a full set. But it's expensive ASF 😭😭😭
Skeletal Armour doesn't have very good Mage bonuses, so you could prolly just sell it
GOAT
My god runescape put my account back on osrs. I never agreed to play rs3. Cb lvl 116. Bunch of quests done. Now restart....
Yeah the restart sucked, but so many agreed to it. Kinda have to
Does hitting a zero give more exp than splashing?
No, a spell gets its xp on cast it's not like range or melee where it matters whether you get the hit or not.
@@virulenthunter3017 I know that. But hitting a 1 gives more exp than a 0. So I was curious if a 0 ŕoll was weighed different than a splash roll.
Does anyone know on here what I bought then because I have the black. And gold robe and hat and wear the zamy pants with the 15k magic amulet but I am playjng f2p so im not sure if you have a list of that stuff or if I just spent 700k to look good lol can anyone help me ??
How about skeletal armour?
he doesn't mention the purple god book at all, is it not good?
Book of darkness is ok. It gives +10 mage accuracy, and +5 prayer. Mage accuracy is rarely that important, though not useless. The prayer bonus is pretty solid, but in general the book isn't super useful
But how do I get defence from magic ? I'm f2p
how does the Dragon'Hai add up on this list?
Cheaper alternative than ancestral
if u do a viedeo covering most of the gear and armour then iclude them all not only the known ones
Lol okay you want him to review lether
Idiot
Can anyone PLEASE tell me how i get the robes/staffs(i cant find them in the grand exchange)
Most of these are members items, if you're on F2P you won't find them on the GE. Otherwise you'll need to be more specific which ones you're looking for
I feel like you can splash super heat on the normal spell book
You can't
Chrrged!!!
vestments?
Kreaken girl* don’t talk crap about my cousins 😩😤
He says MEE LEE
Bro you forgot the explain they nightmare staff...
The nightmare staff came out in feburary 2020 and this video was made in august 2019
Stavs.
