Bind prevents your victim from moving for 5 seconds, and it is the only immobility spell available to free players. It is commonly utilised by free player mages in PvP areas or minigames to prevent vulnerable warriors from running away or attacking the mage. However, if the target is praying against magic, then the binding time is halved, removing most of, if not all the advantage. The only remaining effect is the target needs to click again to move or to attack. If auto-retaliate is on and bind fails to hit, the person bind was cast against will run towards the caster.
This spell may be useful in Fist of Guthix, as one cast can stop your target in their tracks allowing you to close in. However, the time is halved for all bind spells cast in there.
This category of spells is usually used with the (Mystic) Mud staff since it provides an infinite amount of Earth and Water runes, although the Tome of frost may also be used in conjunction with an Earth Staff.
Remember, you cannot use Ancient Magicks or Lunar Spells if you are using standard spells.

Trivia
- Bind does not deal any damage, unlike its stronger counterparts Snare and Entangle.
- The animation of Bind is almost identical to that of Snare other than that the latter's "vine" has a whiter colour.
