OSRS Magic Training Guide: Best Ways To Level Up Fast

Magic is one of the most important skills in Old School RuneScape and is one of the three combat classes. It is used in Combat; it allows crafted items to be enchanted, fast transport around the world via teleports, and converting items into coins via High-Level Alchemy.

In this OSRS Magic Training Guide, we will discuss everything you need to know to improve your magic skills fast.

An increase in your magic level also increases your accuracy, unlocks more spells, and increases your magic defense. Wearing magic gears increases your magic attack bonus, resulting in an increase in accuracy as well. Whereas, wearing a very high-level tier of magic gear increases your magic strength bonus, resulting in an increase in your maximum damage (max hits). There are currently four types of spell books for magic in-game.

Types of Spell Book in OSRS

Standard Spellbook

It has the greatest number of spells compared to the other books and is gained when you first make an account on RuneScape. It consists of a lot of combat spells, along with enchanting, skilling, and teleportation spells.

Ancient Spellbook

This spellbook is unlocked after completing the quest ‘Desert Treasure’. It consists of mostly combat spells, with ice barrage being the most powerful spell in the game. It does have a few teleportation spells as well, with most of them being spells to teleport inside of the wilderness.

Lunar Spellbook

You can switch to this spellbook once you’ve completed the ‘Lunar Diplomacy’ quest. Finishing the hard Fremennik diaries and the dream mentor quest will allow you to use every single spell in the lunar spellbook. This spellbook has zero offensive spells, apart from vengeance (If that is counted as one) and is used mostly for utility or skilling.

Arceuus Spellbook

This spellbook is unlocked after getting a 60% favor in the house of Arceuus. This spellbook contains reanimation spells, which is a cheap and fast way to train your prayer level. It does have teleportation spells as well, which takes you to some very random locations. You also get some magic experience if you use this spellbook to train your prayer.

 

Strike Spells

You can work your way up to use strike spells like air and fire while training at the rock crabs, which provides a lot of last experience. If you wish to make some money as a non-member, you can safe spot ogress warriors while striking them with your magic.

Curse Spells

At level 19, you can start using the spell called curse which splash 100% of the time if you a negative 65 magic attack bonus. You can have a safe spot using this spell on the skeletons near the wilderness zone. At such a low magic level, you can get up to an experience of 33,000 per hour.

Now, for some faster ways to train magic!

Bolt Enchantment Spell

At level 4, you unlock the bolt enchantment spell. But it is recommended to start enchanting bolts at a level 50 magic. You can enchant bolts like ruby, diamond, dragon, and onyx for a magic experience of around 500,000 per hour. As it can be a little boring, you can always AFK while enchanting bolts.

Bursting and Barraging Spell

This is known as one of the fastest methods in training your magic level, this spell casts magic on a lot of monsters at a time, providing a lot of experience even when it’s cast once.

However, at a lower level, it can be quite costly using this spell but once you’re at a higher level, the spell becomes more accurate to use. There are many places to burst in Old School RuneScape, but two of the best places would be the skeletal monkeys in the monkey madness (1) caves and the maniacal monkeys in the monkey madness (2) caves.

These spells can cost quite a few million gold! If you need some quick and cheap OSRS gold.
