Description	Converts the targeted item into even more than coins!

Loftier Level Alchemy (high alch, or alching) is a not-gainsay Magic spell used to convert items into coins at the best price a actor could sell them for at a speciality store. The amount of coins generated is precisely sixty% of the item'due south value (its non-GE cost). Excluding rounding errors, high alchemy produces 50% more than coins than Low Level Alchemy, and 100% more coins than selling to a non specialised shop.

The toll of runes to cast high level alchemy is 1,138 coins but is reduced to 558 coins with a Staff of fire, Burn down battlestaff, Mystic fire staff, Steam battlestaff, Mystic steam staff, Lava battlestaff, Mystic lava staff, any skeletal/necromancer versions of the above, Mindspike (fire), Mystical staff or a Dragon staff, every bit these staves supply unlimited burn runes. Alternatively, the Explorer's ring four and Radiant alchemist's amulet provides 15 rune free casts of High level alchemy a day, which still grants full XP.

High Level Alchemy is a popular way for mages to train their Magic level, past buying or making valuable items and nature runes, and then casting the spell on the items. For case, a player might purchase or make magic shieldbows to cast High Level Alchemy on them. Buying certain items may issue in more coins being created than paid for the converted item. This is widely regarded as a major cause of aggrandizement in the game.

In Daemonheim, High Level Abracadabra will always yield double the store price (twice what the smuggler will buy for).

Players can buy an alternative blitheness for alchemy that replaces the current animation from Solomon's Full general Store for 176 RuneCoins.

Efficient casting [edit | edit source]

High (and Low) Abracadabra tin exist bandage on noted items, saving much withdrawal time from the bank, simplifying the "click pattern", and allowing the spell to be used in almost any location. It is recommended to ready ane's UI and then that high abracadabra tin can exist cast without moving the mouse, and instead past clicking simply. To do this, ensure that the magic spell book (or skilling-spells tab) is in the aforementioned UI window as the inventory. Next, drag the stack of items and then that information technology is very near the High alchemy spell icon. If it is non possible to motility the stack of items near enough to the spell icon, then the UI window may need to be resized.

It should be noted that High Alchemy always grants 65 experience (6.5 in Dungeoneering), regardless of the rarity or expensiveness of the item you are alchemising. For instance, loftier-alchemising a Rune bar grants no more feel than high-alchemising a Bronze bar.

Loftier Level Abracadabra takes five game ticks, or 3 seconds, to cast. It can be cast upwards to exactly 1200 times in i hour which adds up to exactly 78,000 xp/hr, although in practice many people cast a footling less, due to lag and timing inconsistency.

It is possible to use High Level Alchemy without disrupting other tasks, such equally using battle spells or skill tasks like woodcutting, mining or running. If the alchemy spell is cast whatsoever time after five game ticks since the last alchemy cast, you can cast abracadabra every bit depression every bit every 6th tick without it disrupting the combat/task in whatever way, and continue battle as normal. If you lot click any fourth dimension before 5 ticks since the previous alchemy cast, so it will disrupt your task. You tin can nonetheless cast alchemy and proceed combat fluently, and have alchemy bandage every 5th tick, just you will have to issue the combat command again in lodge to proceed casting the boxing spell or melee/ranged attack fluently. Motorcar retaliation tin be finer used to exercise this.

Players can likewise cast High Abracadabra by dragging and dropping an item into their Money Pouch provided that they have the required runes. It will cast at the same speed and cooldown every bit if it was cast from the spellbook or action bar.

Restrictions [edit | edit source]

Certain items cannot be alchemised, such equally untradeable quest items, Treasure Hunter prizes, Crystal equipment, and most Invention items. In addition, members-only items cannot be alchemised in a gratuitous-to-play world. The post-obit areas also prohibit the apply of abracadabra spells:

Soul Wars
Pest Control
The Smashing Orb Project
Fist of Guthix
Castle Wars
Stealing Creation
Angling Trawler
Large Chinchompa
Barbarian Assault

Role in the economic system [edit | edit source]

Since each particular holds a fixed amount of coins gained from High Level Alchemy, this acts as a price floor on items, specially those that take turned relatively obsolete (adamant armour, for example; however, they have recently risen profoundly above the High Level Alchemy value due to new uses in Detach and Burial equipment), which varies depending on the cost of nature runes. As the price of an detail plummets beneath the signal at which a turn a profit tin can be made from alchemising it, the market demand for said item stabilises the toll and prevents information technology from further decreases.

Essentially, players who wish to railroad train magic through Loftier Abracadabra for experience or money tend to seek opportunities to profit. When an opportunity for a meaning turn a profit arises, players will exploit that opportunity, causing the toll to rise, therefore providing a price floor.

History [edit | edit source]

Casting alchemy spells on stackable items will just alchemise i at a fourth dimension; in RuneScape Archetype, the entire stack becomes alchemised.

Originally, users had to time this spell casting so that they could maximise the number of alchs/60 minutes (similar to burying basic at double speed). However, Jagex implemented a spell-cast queue for this spell, so players can choose the bandage option while the previous animation runs, so the character will automatically queue another cast. Note that the queue will just hold a single cast, and clicking the interface more once every 3 seconds volition simply cause some clicks to be discarded.

In the past, Castle Wars was a favourite location for casting this spell considering the xx minute time limit provided a reasonable amount of measurement. It was also enjoyable for the players to watch others fight. Due to histrion complaints virtually other players complimentary-loading this way, this spell tin can no longer be cast inside Castle Wars. All the same, people however keep the walls of Castle Wars and bandage alchemy spells, as you tin still get somewhat of a show as you do it. Soul Wars was a very popular place to alch considering at that place was a lack of random events.

During the week of 4 Apr 2008, Jagex altered the fashion High Level Alchemy and Low Level Alchemy function so every bit to render them inoperable while standing within the Barrows crypt areas.

On 19 May 2009, Jagex updated low and high alchemy so that if a person clicks besides early, the early click will non disrupt the alchemy process.^[one]

Some items, such as rares, are worth far more than on the street than in the store. Prior to the 9th November 2009 update, it was inadvisable for players to conduct such items in their inventory, as accidentally alchemising them would crusade a major loss for the player. A warning message now appears if the histrion tries to cast loftier level alchemy on an item with a market value of 500k or more.

The items that yous keep when you are killed used to be based on the corporeality of coin the item alchemises for. You would continue the items with the highest abracadabra value. At that place were many items which take college alchemy values than items that are more expensive on the Grand Substitution, and yous would go on the lower valued detail because it has a higher alchemy value. This led to quite some controversy. Some players used this system of item-keeping to scam other players, such as luring them into the Wilderness and giving them or dropping for a histrion to pick upwardly, an item which has a big alchemy value but a low Thousand.Due east. value, such as a dragon battleaxe. A dragon battleaxe has an alchemy value of 120,000 coins, while the (formerly) very expensive abyssal whip has an abracadabra value of 72,000 coins. If a player dies and has 4 dragon battleaxes and an abyssal whip in their inventory, even with the Protect Item prayer, they would keep the dragon battleaxes over the deep-sea whip. Equally of 19 April 2011, this scam no longer works, and items kept on death depend on their Yard Commutation guide toll instead.

Trivia [edit | edit source]

In issue 14 of the god letters, Saradomin mentions that casting the High Level Abracadabra spell is a serious crime.
Upon reaching level 55 Magic, it would take approximately 197,967 casts of High Level Abracadabra, roughly equal to 165 total hours of non-cease casting to reach level 99.
If one chooses to alchemise gilded pieces, the action will be denied, since the object is "already fabricated from gold." However, one can still alchemise gold bars and jewellery.
Alchemy spells formerly could not be used on Freneskae, only this was changed in a hidden update.
