Battle mage

From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape

The Battle mages are found in the Mage Arena. Their primary function is to cast a god spell 100 times on any of the mages to be able to use the god staves outside of the arena.

Their max hit is quite high for their level, and Protect from Magic is recommended.

Their aggressiveness depends on which god cape you're wearing;

  • Wearing the Zamorak god cape will make the Zamorak battle mages non-aggressive. Guthix and Saradomin Mages remain aggressive.
  • Wearing the Guthix god cape will make the Guthix battle mages non-aggressive. Zamorak and Saradomin mages remain aggressive.
  • And finally, wearing the Saradomin god cape will make the Saradomin battle mages non-aggressive. Zamorak and Guthix mages remain aggressive.

Wielding a Void Knight mace whilst wearing a non-Guthix god cape will cause only 1 battle mage to be aggressive towards players.

Battle mages only drop bones.



[edit] Trivia

  • When a certain type of battle mage is non-aggressive, they root for you. Despite being non-aggressive they are still attackable.
  • The mage holding the guthix staff appears similar to the gnome mage, but at a much higher level.
  • The mage is holding a wand but it looks like a salamander.
  • The mage holding the zamorak staff appears similar to a dark wizard and a highwayman mixed together.
