Introduction
This page goes through the general method and tips of training the 
Runecrafting skill.
Equipment
There is no requirement to start Runecrafting.
Training
To reach level 99 will take approximately 200k 
Rune Essence, which can be easily obtained mining with mining gloves. It is also a good idea to do this with the 
Mining Skillcape as it will also provide 
Coal Ore.
There are few main methods for reaching max level:
Method 1: Highest rune you can make, switching each time you unlock a new rune. This will provide a wide variety of different rune types for later use.
Method 2: Make even mix of earth/fire runes and turn into 
Lava Rune until 99. This is one of the faster ways to get to max level, though it creates a large number of runes that can only be used for specific 
Alternative Magic skills.
Method 3: Create a small number of lower level catalyst runes (
Mind Rune/
Chaos Rune/
Death Rune), and a large volume of elemental runes, 
Blood Rune, and 
Ancient Rune. Once it is possible to create 
Mist Rune and 
Smoke Rune combination runes, it should be possible to make those until max level. This allows the player to have a large volume of runes for combat later on, though it takes longer to get to max level of runecrafting. In the long run it should save time as the runes being produced are more useful.
While using any of these methods some useful pieces of equipment would be 
Runecrafting Pouch to save essence, 
Elemental Potion to create more elemental runes while crafting, and 
Crow tablets, with 
Bear or 
Octopus depending on what you are crafting.
