Runes Market Analysis
Blood runes and Death runes command the highest prices due to their use in endgame combat spells like Ice Barrage and Trident of the Swamp. Nature runes are heavily consumed by High Alchemy and are a key input cost for alch calculations. Law runes power teleportation. Chaos runes see heavy use in bolt enchanting and early-game magic. Rune prices tend to be more stable than other sectors because supply comes from consistent Runecrafting training and PvM drops.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which runes are most profitable to flip?
Death runes and Blood runes typically offer the best margins due to high demand from PvM. Nature runes have thin margins but extremely high volume. Law runes and Soul runes also see consistent demand.
Why are blood rune prices high?
Blood runes are consumed by some of the most powerful spells in the game — Ice Barrage, Sanguinesti staff, and Scythe of Vitur. All endgame PvM content and PvP uses these spells, creating enormous demand that outpaces Runecrafting supply.
What affects rune prices in OSRS?
Rune prices are affected by Runecrafting update changes, new spell or weapon releases, PvM meta shifts, and true blood altar access. When new content consumes more runes, prices rise. Runecrafting XP rate buffs increase supply and lower prices.
