The clears per hour are counted for a [[Hardcore]] character with level 70 in everything except {{Skill|Hitpoints|HP}} and {{Skill|Magic}} that are adjusted for the magic setups.<br>
The {{Icon|Weakening III|type=curse}} is active with the pre-Volcano Magic.<br>
 
The {{Icon|Stone Skin|type=prayer}} is active with the 100-Volcano Magic. The prayer level is adjusted to allow this prayer.
In the calculations, the time to prepare prayer points and curse runes is not accounted for because it's not as easy. In addition, the overall picture is obvious even without accounting for them.


The adjusted clear time is calculated with the notation and assumptions from the [[Dragons Den/Guide]], but {{ItemIcon|Whale (Perfect)|Whales}} are used as food instead of {{ItemIcon|Crab|Crabs}}.

The Rune-related part of Pre-Volcanic Magic is approximated as <math>T_m + T_r = N * (9.75 + 1.72) / 16 * 1.3 + N * (9.75 + 1.72) * 2 / 16 = 37.851 * N / 16</math> where <br>
All intermediate steps are covered in a spreadsheet. ([https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16B4hXLWF4tomM8OXkhynRIHpC7O6jymgVSiQqAfz6QA/edit#gid=0 link])
<math>N</math> is the number of {{ItemIcon|Ancient Rune|Ancient}} runes spent, <br>
<math>9.75</math> is for {{Icon|Fire Surge|type=spell}}, <br>
<math>1.72</math> is for {{Icon|Weakening III|type=curse}}.
 
The Rune-related part of 100-Volcanoes Magic is approximated as <math>T_m + T_r + T_p = N_o * (2 + 1.3) / 16 + N_p * 3.6 / (3 * 4) = 3.3 * N_o / 16 + 0.3 * N_p</math> where <br>
<math>N_o</math> is the overall number of runes spent, <br>
<math>N_p</math> is the number of prayer points spent. The formula is the one of Alt.Magic/[[Blessed Offering]]. The gain rates of other ways are shown on the {{Skill|Prayer}} page.
