Talisman staves

From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape

Talisman staves are made by using a Runecrafting staff on an altar with the kind of talisman you want on it. For example, if you want an Air talisman staff you must go to an air altar with the Runecrafting staff and air talisman, then use the staff on the altar. A Runecrafting staff is sold at the Runecrafting Guild by Wizard Elriss for 10,000 Runecrafting guild tokens.

The staff can be equipped in the weapon's slot, allowing players to left click on the altar to get inside, saving an inventory space. These talisman staves may be used to access the particular altars they represent. Jagex had also said that the staff can also be used for "distracting the eyes in the Abyss to help you sneak past".

All talisman staves have the following bonuses, with the exception of the Law talisman staff, which has no combat bonuses to allow it to be taken to Entrana. These staffs are the best weapons available to "obby pures" with only 1 attack in a free-to-play world. With no combat requirements, requiring only 50 runecrafting, the +33 strength bonus is extremely high, compared to that of an Iron 2h sword, which is only +14.

They also have the highest magic defence for a right hand item in f2p, making them useful in clan wars.
