Crystal equipment

Crystal equipment is a range of degradable weapons and armour made from elven crystal. Crystal combat equipment requires completion of Roving Elves to use, as well as 50 Agility (although 56 Agility is a boostable requirement to travel through Tirannwn), among other skill requirements unique to each piece. Crystal tools and crystal armour can only be obtained after Song of the Elves. There is also the crystal saw, which is a reward from the quest The Eyes of Glouphrie.

Upon death in the Wilderness, the killer will receive the seed form of the crystal equipment.

Creation

All crystal equipment may be sung from a certain type of crystal seed and varying amounts of crystal shards by the player via the use of a singing bowl, which requires various levels in Crafting and Smithing. If players do not have the requirements, they can have Conwenna or Reese nearby create the items for them for additional crystal shards.

However, for items created via crystal weapon seeds, players can take them to Ilfeen, who will create the items for coins rather than crystal shards.

Crystal weapons

Standard crystal weapon seeds can be used to create three types of equipment: crystal bows, shields, and halberds. However, the halberd can only be created after completion of the Hard Western Provinces Diary.

Enhanced crystal weapon seeds can be used to create the blade of Saeldor and the bow of Faerdhinen. These weapons can then be overcharged with crystal shards to create corrupted versions, which no longer degrade.

Item		Material cost
	Blade of saeldor	167,750,392.00
	Bow of faerdhinen	167,750,392.00
	Crystal bow	799,352.80

Enchantment costs

While players can use a singing bowl to create crystal combat equipment out of crystal weapon seeds, they can alternatively have Ilfeen enchant them to crystal bows, shields, and halberds for coins. Having her sing halberds requires completion of the Hard Western Provinces Diary. Ilfeen cannot "recharge" the crystal items themselves, players must manually revert their item to a crystal weapon seed and choose the item that they want to pay her for. While singing yourself with shards always costs 498,745 coins, the price she charges depends on how many times she has previously been paid to enchant weapon seeds, down to a minimum price:

Item		Enchantment cost
		First	Second	Third	Fourth	Fifth and thereafter
	Crystal bow	900,000	720,000	540,000	360,000	180,000

	Crystal shield

Crystal armour

Crystal armour seeds can create three pieces of armour: the crystal helm, body, and legs. These can only be created by the player at a singing bowl, or by having Conwenna or Reese sing the crystal for them for an extra 60 crystal shards per piece.

The armour pieces start off at 2,500 charges; the maximum charges that can be stored is 20,000. One charge is depleted for each successful hit that is received from combat or poison. Damage that is completely negated by protection prayers does not deplete charges. Also, damage from non-monster sources such as divine potions and Wintertodt attacks do not use any charges. However, damage taken from a strange device will use charges.

To recharge the armour pieces, the player must load in crystal shards (this can be done before it is inactive as well), with each shard granting 100 charges. Dismantling a crystal armour piece will return the crystal armour seed to the player and doing so will lose all crystal shard charges that were previously loaded.

Each crystal armour piece has a bonus effect when equipped to give a damage and accuracy increase to the crystal bow and Bow of Faerdhinen, adding up to a total 15% damage and 30% accuracy bonus when the full set is equipped.

When combined with an imbued slayer helmet, the damage bonus from crystal armour pieces is multiplied by the 15% ranged damage boost from the helmet. Assuming players are wearing both the crystal body and legs, this results in a damage bonus of approximately 29.375%.

Item		Accuracy bonus	Damage bonus	Material cost
	Crystal helm	5%	2.5%	9,740,652.00
	Crystal body	15%	7.5%	29,221,956.00
	Crystal legs	10%	5%	19,481,304.00
Totals		30%	15%	58,443,912.00

Crystal tools

Crystal tool seeds can create three pieces of equipment: the crystal axe, pickaxe and harpoon, which share the same combat stats as their dragon equivalents but offer faster gathering speeds. These can only be created by the player at a singing bowl, or by having Conwenna or Reese sing the crystal for them for an extra 60 crystal shards per piece.

The tools start off at 10,000 charges; the maximum charges that can be stored is 20,000. One charge is depleted for each item that is obtained using the tool. To recharge the tools, the player must load in crystal shards (this can be done before it is inactive as well). Dismantling a crystal tool will return the dragon equivalent and crystal tool seed to the player and doing so will lose all crystal shard charges that were previously loaded.

Item		Material cost
	Crystal axe	25,632,653.40
	Crystal harpoon	27,631,956.40
	Crystal pickaxe	26,426,291.40

Trivia

• There was once a glitch that allowed players to cast High Level Alchemy on crystal bows and crystal shields in free-to-play worlds and make several thousand coins per piece. Players could buy crystal seeds from other players, pay the reduced recharge cost, and make large sums of money. Because of this glitch, it is no longer possible to alchemise crystal equipment at all.
