The Water Altar is a runic altar upon which water runes are crafted from rune essence or pure essence, providing 6 Runecraft experience per essence imbued. Level 5 Runecraft is required to craft water runes.

Players may create a water tiara here by using either a water talisman or a tiara on the altar whilst having both in their inventory, granting 30 Runecraft experience. An elemental tiara can also be created here by using an elemental talisman and gold tiara, granting 40 Runecraft experience.

Upon entering the Water Altar, the music track Zealot plays.

</mapframe> The entrance to the altar can be found in the Lumbridge Swamp, the altar can also be accessed through the Abyss.

To enter the mysterious ruins, players either have to use a water talisman on the ruins, or click "Enter" on the ruins while wearing a water tiara. Alternatively, an elemental talisman or tiara can be used.

The closest bank from the Water Altar is either Draynor Village or the top floor of Lumbridge Castle. Members may use the bank in Zanaris by entering the shed just east with a dramen staff.

Combination runes

It is possible to make mist runes, mud runes, and steam runes while at this altar, but at a 50% success rate. This will result in fewer runes than normal being made. To make a combination rune, the player needs one set of elemental runes, a stack of pure essence, and 2 talismans.

Note that players need to use the opposing rune on the altar to craft combination runes. Simply clicking on the altar would just result in regular elemental runes.

Magic Imbue negates the need of a talisman.

If the player equips a binding necklace, the success rate will increase to 100%. The necklace has a total of 16 uses before breaking. A charge is used each time a batch of combination runes is crafted, instead of each time the altar is entered or for each rune crafted.
