Runescape Dragonwilds brings over classic spells from its original source, including fan favorites like Bones to Peaches and Superheat. But this magical survival game isn’t just about the familiar—it also introduces a variety of new mystical abilities that can give you a real edge while exploring the wild and mysterious lands of Ashenfall.
As you level up your skills in Runescape Dragonwilds, you’ll steadily gain access to an expanding list of spells. Most of these are designed to improve your survival experience, offering handy tools and support when things get tough. While close combat can be intense and wielding a bow is satisfying for sharpshooters, longtime MMO fans know that magic has always been the most stylish and strategic part of the combat trio. Curious about what each spell can do in RuneScape Dragonwilds? Let’s dive in.
All Spells in Runescape Dragonwilds
Enchant Weapon: Fire
In Dragonwilds fire actually serves a double purpose. Not only will it illuminate the dark corners, but as an offensive possessor-a kind of magic-it lets you charge your melee weapons with fiery energy to greatly increase their striking potential. And more yes-it’ll incinerate an enemy on a landing critical hit dealing additional burn damage.
- Skill Tree: Attack
- Unlocked at: Level 20
- Cooldown: 90 seconds
- Requirements: 15x Fire Rune, 5x Astral Rune
Tempest Shield
Tempest Shield is your go-to magical defense ability, especially useful when facing groups of enemies. It provides reliable protection even while you’re blocking incoming attacks. Once it concludes, the shield releases a powerful energy burst that knocks nearby foes backward, giving you some breathing room.
- Skill Tree: Attack
- Unlocked at: Level 11
- Cooldown: 60 seconds
- Requirement: 15x Air Rune
Rocksplosion
An exciting operation that defines the event of mining in Dragonwilds-Rocksplosion does the trick. A few runic spells will set off explosions in whatever rocks and ore deposits are sitting close by, shattering them to smithereens and scattering profitable materials all around you.

- Unlocked at: Level 11
- Cooldown: 45 seconds
- Requirements: 15x Earth Rune, 5x Fire Rune, Pickaxe
Enchant Weapon: Air
If you favor fast and furious attacks over heavy stated attacks, this enchantment is just for you.

- Unlocked at: Level 30
- Cooldown: 90 seconds
- Requirements: 15x Air Runes, 5x Astral Runes
Axtral Projection
As the first spell you’ll learn, Axtral Projection is a lifesaver—especially since chopping trees can be even more time-consuming than mining. This ability lets you hurl your axe magically in a straight line, slicing through multiple trees at once and bringing them down instantly.
- Skill Tree: Woodcutting
- Unlocked at: Level 11
- Cooldown: 45 seconds
- Requirements: Logging Axe
Detect Ore + Clay

- Skill Tree: Mining
- Unlocked at: Level 24
- Cooldown: 10 seconds
- Requirements: 5x Astral Rune, 5x Earth Rune

- Skill Tree: Woodcutting
- Unlocked at: Level 27
- Cooldown: 45 seconds

- Cooldown: 10 seconds
- Requirements: 15x Fire Rune, 5x Air Rune

- Skill Tree: Artisan
- Unlocked at: Level 11
- Cooldown: 300 seconds
- Requirements: 10x Nature Runes, 10x Earth Runes
Eye of Oculus

- Unlocked at: Level 11
- Cooldown: 3 seconds
- Requirements: 3x Astral Runes
Magical Mending
Maintaining durability has always been quite the hassle, especially when you find yourself stuck with a near-broken weapon or tool so far from home.

- Skill Tree: Cooking
- Unlocked at: Level 27
- Cooldown: 3 seconds
