[[File:Nature rune detail.png|100px|left|Nature rune]]
'''Nature runes''' are [[runes]] that are used for transmutation spells. Members with a [[Runecrafting]] skill of 44 or greater can craft nature runes from [[Pure Essence]] at the [[Nature altar]]. Members with 91 or greater runecrafting always craft two nature runes per essence; those with between 44 and 90 runecrafting have a chance at crafting either one or two nature runes per pure essence, with the probability of two increasing with each runecrafting level. Crafting nature runes yields 9 runecrafting [[experience]] per essence (or 18 experience at the [[Ourania rune altar]]).

Nature runes are one of the seven most traded items in the [[Grand Exchange]] because of the frequency of [[High Level Alchemy]] spells.

==Spells==
Along with [[fire runes]] (or a [[staff of fire]]), nature runes may be used to cast [[Low Alchemy]] or [[High Alchemy]] spells to convert items to set amounts of [[coins]], to cast [[Superheat Item]] spell to smelt [[ore]]s into [[bar]]s without a furnace which gives magic and smithing experience. High Alchemy is the most common use of nature runes as it grants high experience for training without danger of death and damage.

Along with [[earth rune]]s and [[water rune]]s (or a [[mud staff]], or an earth- or water- rune supplying staff plus the other rune, or an earth rune supplying staff and a Tome of Frost), nature runes may be used to cast [[bones to bananas]] and [[bones to peaches]] spells, which convert all carried [[Bones]] up to [[Big bones]] into [[Banana]]s or [[Peaches]], respectively. The latter is members-only. Also along with earth and water runes, natures may be also used to immobilize a target using the [[bind]], [[snare]] or [[entangle]] spells, the last two of which are members only.

Nature runes are also used in the [[Plank make]] spell in the Lunar spellbook.

In an update on [[3 October]] [[2011]], the [[high level alchemy]] value was changed from 223 coins to 74; and the [[low level alchemy]] value was changed from 148 coins to 49. This was due to many players using the High Alchemy spell to convert the nature runes into coins as it yielded a very slight profit, granting easy magic experience for very little cost.

===Free Spells===
All players can cast these spells.
*[[Bind]]
*[[Bones to Bananas]]
*[[Low Level Alchemy]]
*[[High Level Alchemy]]
*[[Superheat Item]]

===Member Spells===
Only [[members]] can cast these spells:
*[[Snare]]
*[[Entangle]]
*[[Bones to Peaches]]
*[[Remote Farm]]
*[[Enchant Crossbow Bolt]]
*[[Fertile Soil]]
*[[Plank Make]]
*[[Energy Transfer]]

==Acquiring==
===Runecrafting===
Crafting Nature runes is Members only. The teleport to the Graahk hunter area on Karamja offers a very fast way to make Nature runes. This can be accessed by left-clicking 'interact' on the [[Spirit Graahk]], then clicking "Teleport". After teleporting, it takes about 30 seconds to reach the [[Nature altar]], which is a lot faster than the average time it takes to reach the nature altar using the [[Abyss]]. With four [[Runecrafting]] pouches, complete trips to the Nature altar can be done in under 60 seconds, allowing over 3000 pure essence to be crafted into nature runes per hour. Each [[Spirit Graahk]] lasts 49.5 minutes before a new pouch is needed. An alternate method is to use the [[Fairy ring]] network (code C-K-R for Karamja near the altar).

===Spawns===
There is a spawn in the [[Edgeville Dungeon]] where the hill giants are.

There is also a lava-surrounded island in high level [[Wilderness]], south east of the demonic ruins, where 2 nature runes may be [[telegrab]]bed from a spawn. Each telegrab yields 1 nature rune.

Furthermore, there are also some located on an island near the Rock crabs by [[Relleka]] that need to be telegrabbed.

===Shops===
[[Pay-to-play|Members]] may purchase nature runes in the [[Mage Arena]], [[Mage Training Arena]], the [[Magic Guild]] in [[Yanille]], or at [[Baba Yaga's Magic Shop]] on [[Lunar Isle]].

==Change in alchemy value==
*In an update on [[3 October]] [[2011]], the [[high level alchemy]] value was changed from 223 coins to 74; and the [[low level alchemy]] value was changed from 148 coins to 49. This was done because the [[Grand Exchange]] price of nature runes dropped under 111GP. From below this price, Nature runes could be alched for a small profit. Example: 2 x 111 = 222 GP = 1GP profit.
*On [[4 October]] 2011, Mod Mat K explained the change:
{{Cquote2|Yesterday we made a small but necessary update to the high alchemy value of nature runes. The price of the nature runes was at a level where it was possible to buy them and alch them for a profit. This obviously had an impact on other items you would commonly alch for a profit and meant that as soon as you reached level 55 in Magic you could buy a few nature runes, alch them and then use the profits to buy more.

Effectively this meant that you could level all the way up to 200 million XP in magic for no cost (in fact for a profit) which is not how the skill is intended to work.

To maintain the value of having level 99 magic and the value of commonly alched items (such as Yew longbows or Mithril platebodies) we felt this quick solution was necessary.|Mod Mat K}}

This effectively removed the floor on the price of nature runes (or reduced it to 37 coins).
