Magic is useful for both combat and teleportation, however when you cast combat related spells there is a risk of failure. Your success is dependent on your magical attack bonuses, the magical defense bonuses of your opponent and your Magic experience. Higher level spells are more likely to fail but as your Magic ability improves your chances of casting spells successfully will also increase. If you fail to hit your opponent you will still gain the base level experience for casting the spell, however if your spell does inflict damage you will be awarded extra magical experience points. Heavy metallic armor conducts magic, therefore mages have an increased chance of damaging hand to hand melee fighters wearing armor. Wearing armor will so have a negative impact on a players ability to cast spells successfully.
Elemental Staves
Mages wishing to learn "Auto Casting" may do so by visiting Zaff at the staff shop in Varrock and purchasing the staff or staves of their choice. Elemental Staves (water, earth, fire and air) have the power equal to infinite runes of that type. When an elemental staff is equipped and combined with the other runes used in a particular spell auto cast may be selected. When using auto cast in combat the spell of your choosing will continue to be cast constantly until you elect to stop using the spell, you run out of the runes necessary to cast the spell or your opponent is defeated.
