Wizard Goldberg has made his Rune Goldberg Machine available for public use, in today's rune value update - as voted by you in the Skill Update Player Power poll earlier this year.
Head to the Runecrafting Guild to start this daily D&D. You'll enter combinations of runes to get vis wax, which can:
- Extend or reset auras.
- Increase your divine location gathering limit.
- Extend or reroll daily challenges.
Finally, we've increased the rune essence capacity and summon duration of the abyssal titan and abyssal lurker.

Rune Goldberg Machine - New Runecrafting D&D
Speak to Wizard Goldberg to get a quick tour of his prototype invention.
To get your daily helping of vis wax, you'll need to fill up the machine with three types of rune. You can put any type of rune into any of the slots - with the exception of Armadyl runes.
Putting different runes in different slots will yield differing amounts of vis wax when you click 'combine' on the interface. This amount changes daily, so you may wish to experiment first.
Experiment by filling up the machine with combinations of three runes. You'll see how much wax you would get with that combination, although if you try again the number or runes needed before clicking 'combine' will increase.
Each slot has a daily best-in-slot rune, determined randomly each day. Each slot also counts for a set proportion of the final amount of vis wax:
- Slot 1 is the same rune for every player, and counts for 30%.
- Slot 2 is one of three possible runes, and counts for 30%.
- Slot 3 is randomly assigned to each player, and counts for 40%.
Vis Wax and its Many Uses
Vis wax is marvellous stuff, with a variety of unique uses.
Click the vis wax in your inventory and you'll have a choice of three functions:
Auras
- Extend the duration of most auras by 50 or 100%. One extension per cooldown period.
- The Wisdom and Jack of Trades auras (all tiers) cannot be extended, but their cooldown can be reset once per day for a second activation.
- The Festive, Enlightenment, Daemonheim, Oddball, and all other cosmetic auras are not affected by vis wax.
- Reroll daily challenges directly from the Challenges interface. You'll be offered an alternative in a skill different to the original, or you'll be able to stick with what you had. Each challenge can only be rerolled once.
- Some challenges can also be extended - doubling the action needed for twice the reward. Note that not every challenge is eligible for this.
- Increase your daily gathering limit by 50% or 100%.
In addition to the Rune Goldberg machine, we've tweaked the following to make runecrafting at an altar a bit smoother:
- Essence stored in pouches or in abyssal familiars will now be automatically used when crafting runes, alongside those in your ordinary inventory.
- The abyssal titan and abyssal lurker have had their rune essence carrying capacities and summon durations increased.
Your votes and Goldberg's innovation have made the Runecrafting skill all the more useful and profitable. Enjoy, and tell us what you think on the forums.

Er is een nieuwe Runecrafting Distraction & Diversion. Met de Rune Goldberg Machine in de Runecrafting guild kun je runes omzetten tot vis wax. Met vis wax kun je de duur van de meeste aura's verlengen of hun cooldown terugzetten, je daily challenges veranderen of verlengen voor meer xp, en je dagelijkse limiet voor het verzamelen van divine locations van Divination verhogen.
De hoeveelheid vis wax die je krijgt hangt af van de runes die je gebruikt. Hoeveel elke combinatie oplevert verandert elke dag. Het is dus handig om een beetje te experimenteren voordat je al je runes in de machine werpt. Je kunt combinaties van drie runes maken. De eerste rune is voor alle spelers hetzelfde, de tweede rune is één van drie mogelijke runes en de derde rune is voor elke speler willekeurig. Het is dus aan te raden met andere spelers te overleggen over de eerste twee runes. Het aantal runes dat je nodig hebt om vis wax te maken zal na elke poging namelijk stijgen, dus je resultaten delen helpt jezelf en andere spelers om minder runes te gebruiken.
Het traditionele Runecrafting met rune essence en een altaar heeft ook baat bij de update van vandaag. Rune en pure essence die je in een pouch hebt zitten of die je familiar draagt zal nu automatisch worden verbruikt wanneer je op een altaar klikt. Ook kunnen abyssal titans en lurkers meer essence dragen en gaan ze langer mee.
Daarnaast droppen ongeveer 90 monsters minder runes of helemaal geen runes meer. Op deze manier komen er minder runes het spel in en worden ze weer meer waard. Ook zijn er uiteraard patch notes. Zowel de lijst met monsters met aangepaste runes drops en de patch notes zijn op het forum te vinden.
