Catalytic runes are generic non-elemental runes. Each rune can act as one of the non-elemental runes (mind, body, chaos, death, blood, nature, cosmic, law, soul, astral and Armadyl). They are only currently used in the Fist of Guthix, Barbarian Assault, Dominion Tower, and the Stealing Creation minigames.

Fist of GuthixEdit

At the beginning of every Fist of Guthix game, each player receives 300 catalytic runes along with 1,000 elemental runes. They can only be used to cast combat spells within the activity. While in Fist of Guthix, if you put a catalytic rune in the price checker, it says that each catalytic rune is worth 2 coins, even though you can never bring those runes out of Fist of Guthix to sell.

Stealing Creation levels and quantitiesEdit

In Stealing Creation the player collects clay and brings it to the creation kiln to create catalytic runes.

Catalytic runes within Barbarian AssaultEdit

Due to a past update, Barbarian Assault now uses elemental and catalytic runes, instead of the standard ones. This is because players often find glitches that could let them escape Barbarian Assault with the runes.

Catalytic runes within Dominion TowerEdit

The catalytic runes spawn on the ground when spells are necessary to kill a boss, such as Chronozon.
