Gloves (rune)

From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape

Rune gloves should not be confused with Rune gauntlets, a reward from the Fist of Guthix minigame.


Rune gloves are special metal gloves that can be bought from the Culinaromancer's Chest after completion of 8 Recipe for Disaster subquests. As with all metal gloves, this piece of armour cannot be made using the Smithing skill.

Note that Rune gloves cannot be sold back to the Culinaromancer's Chest, or traded with another player. Thus, the only way of getting rid of it is by using High Level Alchemy or Low Level Alchemy. This way players will only lose 2,000-3,000 coins. Due to the evil tree update, these are the highest gloves players may obtain with an intiate pure account.

Rune gloves are very cheap compared to the next pair of gloves in line, the Dragon gloves. They cost only 5,000 coins compared to the 100,000 coins cost of Dragon Gloves or Barrows Gloves, and their bonuses are only slightly lower. Because of this, the majority of player-killers wear Rune Gloves over Dragon Gloves or Barrows Gloves in order to save money.
