Experience rates

At 6.0 games/hour, about 10.0 minutes each:

SkillXP per gameXP per hour
Runecraft10,58063,480
Crafting1,0336,200

At 99 Runecraft that is the blood altar and the fire one, 8.75 experience an essence between them — 6,125 for 700 essence, plus 4,455 at the end of the game for being over 300 energy.

A search costs a point of each kind, so the essence is split between an elemental and a catalytic altar rather than spent on the better one — which is what the strategy article recommends, blood and death first, then fire and earth.

The 700 essence is the estimate: nothing publishes how much a game gets through. It is back-solved from the money-making guide’s 65,000 xp/hour and describes a maxed player with a colossal pouch, so put your own number in if you are training up to that.

Combination runes pay more than either component and are what the profit-minded craft; they are not counted here, so this reads a little low for anyone doing mist and mud.

Guardian stones are 5 experience each and left out, as is the Mining from the fragments — which the game caps at the first 250/game.
