The '''Flames of Zamorak''' spell requires 60 [[Magic]] to cast and can do a maximum of 300 life points per spell with a charge (zamorak cape). Flames of Zamorak lowers the target's Magic level by 5 after a successful cast. Players must complete the [[Mage Arena]] activity and be wielding a [[Zamorak staff]] to use this spell. You get the Zamorak cape free in the [[Mage Arena]] if you choose to pray to [[Zamorak]].
Contrary to popular belief, Flames of Zamorak does not hit any harder than the other God Spells. However, it is one of the highest hitting spells in the regular spellbook. Since this spell requires a God staff, players cannot use another staff that gives unlimited amounts of runes. Players must [[File:Flames of Zamorak.gif|frame|A player casting flames of zamorak]]buy or craft the runes needed.

The maximum damage increases to 300 life points when the [[Charge]] spell is in effect, a tie with [[Ice Barrage]] without a staff. If using an extreme magic potion, the maximum damage increases to 360 life points (with Charge) or 280 (without Charge).

The [[Fire Surge]] spell can hit, at maximum, 308 damage when using a staff with a 10% bonus to magic damage, 322 with a [[Staff of Light]], or 336 with a [[Chaotic Staff]], although God Spells remain a cheaper option with lower requirements.

==History==
* Before a fix on [[10 January]] [[2007]], the [[Magic]] level of the target would remain unchanged if the target's Magic level was above or below the normal level (such as after using a [[Magic potion]]).
* Before the [[10 December]] updates, Flames of Zamorak was quite popular while staking in the [[Duel Arena]] in Magic-only duels, as it could lower the opponents Magic level by 5. This would disable the opponents ability to cast spells that are less than 5 levels below their normal Magic level, thus sometimes handing the duel over to the person casting Flames of Zamorak.
* As of 2 September 2009, this spell, along with [[Saradomin Strike]], can be [[autocast]].

==Trivia==
* During ''[[Wanted!]]'', the mad-mage [[Solus Dellagar]] can hit up to 960 life points with this spell (depending on the player's maximum health), but can never kill the player as [[Savant]] uses her powers to defend the player. (Prayer does not make a difference during the cast)
* When trying to bare handedly steal the [[wine of Zamorak]], the spell will be used on, and will slightly damage the player; it is believed that the spell is used by the monks, or [[Zamorak]] himself.
* It is worth noting that distance is not a factor in how long after the spell is cast, the damage is actually applied, so when cast at the same time from a distance as an enemy casting a spell like Ice Barrage, '''Flames of Zamorak WILL hit first.''' This seems fitting, as Flames of Zamorak seems to be an "Anti-mage" spell.
