Rune mace

A spiky mace. Rune mace is a free-to-play rune in Old School RuneScape, used as a spell component for Magic training and combat casting.

Rune mace is consumed by spellcasters across all Magic content, from High Alchemy to combat spells. Rune demand is steady and predictable, driven by fundamental game mechanics.

Rune mace costs only 8,471 gp, making it ideal for players starting out with limited gold. The buy-sell spread is 211 gp (2.5%), which indicates a tight spread common in actively traded items.

At 775 recent trades, Rune mace has enough volume for consistent flipping but not so much that margins get squeezed instantly. The buy limit of 70 every 4 hours is worth planning around when scaling flips.

Rune mace currently has a negative margin of -376 gp after tax, meaning instant flips would result in a loss at these prices. Margins fluctuate throughout the day — check back later or set a price alert to be notified when the margin turns positive. The price has risen 2.6% in the last hour, indicating upward buying pressure.

High alching Rune mace yields a profit of 59 gp per cast (before nature rune cost). At ~1,200 casts per hour, that's up to 70.8k/hr in passive income while training Magic.

The 2.5% spread on Rune mace is narrow, indicating healthy competition among buyers and sellers — expect fast fills but thinner margins. Prices are rising sharply — up 2.6% in the last hour. This can indicate a buy spike or supply squeeze; margins may be temporarily elevated and could normalize soon.
