Magic

Magic armours provide very little Ranged defence bonuses, but are used instead to harness the magic attacking ability of a mage and to provide melee and some magic defence bonuses. Some magic armours can be made by players. None of the following armour bonuses include bonuses from the related staff. Click on the links to see the main articles for more information. Wearing magic armour will hinder a player's accuracy with the other combat styles, ranged being affected more than melee.

Hexcrest detail

The hexcrest is a ring worn around the head and may be received as a drop from Jungle strykewyrms. Although it offers poor bonuses, people often prefer to wear it when using magic on a slayer task, or attaching it to a full slayer helmet and wear that, as it gives a 20% bonus to magic damage, akin to the black mask and focus sight. When not on a slayer task, the hexcrest yields no additional effects.

Combat robes - level 20[]

Dagon'hai robe top detail

Hat, Top, Bottom

Dagon'hai robes are the robes worn by the Zamorakian Dagon'hai order. They are superior to mystic robes in terms of stats, but having killed Bork at least once in the Chaos Tunnels is a requirement to wear them. A set is obtained for free during While Guthix Sleeps, while searching Dark Squall's desk. Surok Magis and other members of the order wear these robes.

Necromancer gear (m) - level 40[]

Necromancer hood chathead
Necromancer robe top detail

Hood, Top, Bottom

The necromancer robes are upgraded Dagon'hai robes. The upgrade is in the prayer bonus, which is +10. Any of the three pieces of Dagon'hai robes can be turned into necromancer robes by using a necromancer kit on them, along with ten pieces of fine cloth and level 85 Crafting.

All of these items can be obtained from opening various chests in the Shade Catacombs under Mort'ton, but the necromancer kit itself is untradeable and can only be received from opening a chest with a gold key, effectively making level 80 Firemaking a requirement. Even so, the chances to get one are quite small, but they are increased if wearing a ring of wealth when opening the chest. In addition, gold keys become much more common if wearing Morytania legs 3 during the cremation of fiyr corpses.

Splitbark armour - level 40[]

Splitbark body detail
Splitbark helm chathead

Helmet, Body, Legs, Gauntlets, Boots

Splitbark armour is a medium-level magic armour. They give better defence bonuses than batwing robes. They are not very common, as they are hard to make, and many players prefer other robes.

Farseer helm (m) - level 45[]

A Farseer helm.
Farseer helm chathead

A Farseer helm is an upper-medium-level magic helmet. The Farseer helm is relatively popular, as it is cheaper than the Infinity hat and Third-age mage hat, is easier to obtain than the Healer hat, and does not degrade like Ahrim's hood. It is extremely popular due to the hybrid PvP.

Sacred clay armour can be bought from the rewards mystic with Stealing Creation points. As long as it has charges - the clay degrades. The armour and weapons may be changed into pieces of magic, ranged or melee armour and weapons at will. A more expensive shield may also be bought. The magic variant offers decent bonuses, but most players prefer to use mystic or batwing robes as they are cheaper.

Infinity top detail
Infinity hat chathead

Hat, Top, Bottoms, Gloves, Boots

Infinity robes are a reward purchasable from the Mage Training Arena minigame. Infinity robes give a higher defence bonuses than Mystic equipment.

The armour is rarely used as it is comparatively less cost-effective; the mystic equipment have lower stats but are significantly cheaper and also available to free-to-play players.

God capes (m) - level 60[]

Guthix cape detail

Saradomin cape (blue/white), Guthix cape (green/teal), Zamorak cape (black/red)

The God capes are the best capes available for magic critical, and moderate in defence. They can be earned from the Mage Arena minigame. Many players use them for their high magic critical and ease of recovering them if lost.

Third-age robe top detail
Third-age mage hat chathead

Hat, Top, Bottom

Third-age mage robes are a high-level magic armour. Third-age mage robes are extremely rare, and therefore very expensive. Third-age mage robes are mainly used as a status symbol, rather than a practical set of robes. Third-age mage robes can be obtained from Treasure Trails, or by trading with another player.

High level equipment[]

Robes of Subjugation (m) - level 70[]

Hood of subjugation chathead
Garb of subjugation detail

Robes of subjugation are a high-levelled armour, popular amongst players who can afford them. The robes were once made by the demon Razulei for Zamorak when he returned after Zaros' banishment. They possess special powers, so that the mages wearing them who are not loyal to Zamorak are tortured, leaving only his true followers. These robes may be acquired as drops from K'ril Tsutsaroth and his lackeys in the God Wars Dungeon.

Ahrim the Blighted's robes (m) - level 70[]

Ahrim's hood chathead
Ahrim's robe top detail

Hood, Robetop, Ahrim's robe skirt

Ahrim's robes are high-level magic armour. Ahrim's robetop and robeskirt give the second highest defence bonuses available concerning torso and legs, respectively. Ahrim's robes are very popular, especially amongst more advanced participants in Player-versus-Player activities, particularly Fist of Guthix. They are comparatively cheap, but require repairing every 15 hours of combat and require a moderately high magic and defence level. When wielding all of Ahrim's robes, including the staff, spells have a chance of reducing their target's strength. This power is called 'Blighted Aura'. Ahrim's robetop and robeskirt are often combined with other pieces of armour to form a high magic defence set of armour.

Ganodermic armour (m) - level 75[]

Ganodermic poncho detail
Ganodermic visor chathead

Zuriel's hood chathead

Hood, Top, Bottom

Zuriel's robes are one of the four sets of Ancient Warriors' equipment. While it has good stats, the disadvantage is that is it degrades while using it. Moreover, it is quite expensive. Previously, parts of any of the sets could only be received (with much luck) from player-versus-player or Bounty Hunter worlds, but now they are dropped by all revenants in the Forinthry Dungeon as well as the Chaos Elemental.

Virtus armour (m) - level 80[]

Mask, Top, Legs

Virtus armour is a high level set of equipment obtainable from the Zarosian boss, Nex. It requires level 80 in Magic, Defence, and Constitution. It is currently the third most expensive set of magic armour in the game, after Tectonic and Third-age armour.

Helm, Body, Legs, Refined Helm, Refined Body, Refined Legs

Anima Core of Seren is a high level set of equipment obtainable from the Heart of Gielinor. It requires 80 Defence to wear. It has stats similar to virtus equipment and does not degrade, but it provides no bonuses to Prayer or life points. It is currently the best non-degrading set of magic equipment in the game.

Hybrid armour (m) - level 85[]

Trickster helm chathead
Battle-mage helm chathead

Trickster armour, Vanguard armour, Battlemage armour

Although "hybrid" armour offers even better bonuses than Nex armour, these only apply inside a number of safe player-versus-player minigames and otherwise they are purely cosmetic.

The special thing about the armours is that they focus on not one, but two combat classes at once. Trickster armour offers great bonuses for mages who like to first freeze their target and then kill them off with a bow (or of course bowsmen who prefer to finish off their opponent with a blast of magic) and battlemage armour is designed for battlemages who use spell alongside sword.

The armours are received in pieces (helm, body, leggings, gloves and boots) and at the end of several minigames, there is rare chance of receiving a piece. Each minigame offers a piece for a specific slot and, should one be lucky enough to get one, a screen opens up offering the choice between that piece of vanguard, trickster or battlemage armour.

Seasinger's robes (m) - level 85[]

Seasinger's hood chathead
Seasinger's robe top detail

Hood, Top, Bottom - Superior Hood, Superior Top, Superior Bottom

Seasinger's robes offer the third-best defensive bonuses, behind Primeval equipment and it's Achto counterpart. They require 85 Defence and 85 Constitution to wear and are made with Chi globes obtained in the Player-owned port minigame. There are two versions of the armour; a standard tradeable version, and a 'superior' untradeable version with slightly better stats.

To make the armour, you will need 90 Runecrafting and a total of 200 Chi globes for the superior version or 160 for the normal version.

The inferior armour will degrade to dust after 10 hours of combat stance, while the superior armour will degrade after 12 hours. However, the superior set can be repaired by Bob, an armour stand, or at the Ports workbench. Repairing at an armour stand takes into account your Runecrafting level instead of your Smithing level.

Tectonic armour (m) - level 90[]

Tectonic mask chathead
Tectonic robe top detail

Mask, Top, Bottom

Tectonic robes are the strongest power magic armour available. They require level 90 Magic and Defence to equip and last for 100,000 hits before degrading. This armour cannot be repaired once degraded and will simply disappear after fully degrading. Tectonic robes are made by combining a stone of binding with tectonic energy, the latter being a common drop from the boss monster Vorago. Level 93 Runecrafting is required to make all 3 parts. Once this armour has been equipped it cannot be traded.

Primeval equipment (m) - level 90[]

Primeval Mask chathead
Primeval robe top detail

Mask, Top, Bottom, Boots, Gloves- Superior Mask, Superior Top, Superior Bottom, Superior Boots, Superior Gloves

Primeval equipment is untradeable, degradable, level 90 magic tank armour, available from Raids. It comes in normal and superior (achto) versions. Although degradable, the armour doesn't degrade in Raids. Both sets can trigger the ability to reset all Defensive ability cooldowns. The superior Achto version has a secondary effect - if you equip a weapon and shield of matching combat styles, each Achto armour piece will boost your strength bonus for that style by 10%, or 5% if you equip a defender instead.

The normal version is purchasable from the armoursmith with teci. It has 100,000 charges of combat, and will degrade to dust when those charges are depleted. The superior version is available as a rare reward from Beastmaster Durzag and Yakamaru that gives bonus damage if a shield is wielded.
