About Rune longsword

"A razor sharp longsword."

Rune longsword is a free-to-play one-handed slash sword requiring 40 Attack to wield. Smithed at 90 Smithing from 2 runite bars for 150 XP, it offers higher max-hit slash and stab bonuses than the rune sword at the cost of a slower 5-tick speed. The rune scimitar is generally preferred for training, but the longsword sees use in F2P pures, fashion, and as a stepping stone to the dragon longsword.

Market Strategy

  • Investment Notes
  • Smithing 2 runite bars sets a hard cost floor on the GE price
  • Demand driven by F2P combat alts and clue-completion stock
  • GE limit of 70 per 4 hours allows steady mid-volume flips
  • High alch profit thin against nature rune cost; track price gap before alching

Trading Tips

Compare runite bar price x 2 vs GE price for smithing profitability
Volume spikes during F2P events; lift offers before bulk buyouts
Avoid stocking near GE ceiling — collectors prefer dragon longsword above this tier
