Basic Technique - Mining Rune Essence

Perquisites:

- This technique is for both non-members and members
- Any level
- Any amount of gold
- Completed Rune Mysteries quest (see below)

Rune Essence is a trade item that can be made into runes by players. You need to complete the Rune Mysteries quest to be able to mine Rune essence. Don't worry, though, the Rune Mysteries quest is relatively easy and doesn’t require any combat skill whatsoever – you just run around and do errands for characters. You can start the quest at the basement of the Wizards Tower.

You need a pickaxe to mine Rune Essence! Pickaxes are extremely cheap. Buy one that best matches your mining level. New players should start with an iron or bronze pickaxe. Bronze pickaxes sell for just a few gold points each.

Getting There

After you have finished the quest, talk to the Varrock Rune Shop owner and he’ll teleport you to the Rune Essence mine. Mine the Rune Essence until you have a full load, then go back to Varrock and deposit your load of Rune Essence at the bank.

As soon as you have enough Rune Essence, sell your load at either Varrock World 1 or Falador World 2 for the maximum market price. Remember to watch the Runescape forums for current prices!
