Use
From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape
Use is a function in the game interface used to interact two items or an item and an object together. It is one of the functions that every item in the game serves, although some items will not interact with anything. It is the first "left click" option for many items, and any item can be used with any other. However, most of the time, this will yield the message "Nothing interesting happens".
[edit] Functions
There is a vast plethora of uses for the 'use' function. The most common are:
- Cooking food, achieved by using the raw food with the fire or cooking range
- Unlocking doors by using the key on the door
- Using bars on anvils to smith them into equipment
- Combining items by using them on each other (e.g. adding food to a cornucopia to increase healing power
- Fletching a bow out of a log (by using a knife with some logs, which are obtained via the Woodcutting skill
- Herblore, in which vials are used with herbs and other ingredients
Other less common uses include:
- Mining (using a pickaxe on the rock which contains the ore) (This has been confirmed to no longer work)
- Fishing (using the fishing equipment on the fishing spot)
- Summoning (using the pouches on the obelisks to create scrolls).
This functions was also very popular amongst the release of Item Lending, where players had to lend items by using them on players.
The use function is also very useful when trying to use or give an item with/to a NPC.
