New page

{{update|date=2 September 2009}}

We have redesigned the way [[autocast]]ing [[Magic#Combat_spells|combat spells]] works so that it no longer requires a [[magic staff]]. Now, you can set a spell to autocast via the redesigned [[Spellbook|Magic Spellbook]] interface. This change is designed to make autocasting spells easier and more intuitive.

A summary of the changes is as follows:
* Autocasting no longer requires a magic staff.
* Autocasting is now controlled via your [[Magic#Standard spellbook|spellbook]]. To set a spell to autocast, simply select a spell, right click it and select the "Autocast" option from the spell icon in your spellbook.
* You can still single-cast spells by selecting the "Cast" option from the spell icon in the spellbook.
* In the standard spellbook, "Autocast" is now the default option (left-click) for combat spells, with "Cast" as the alternate option (right-click).
* In the [[Ancient Magicks|Ancient Magicks spellbook]], "Cast" remains the default option (left-click), with "Autocast" as the alternate option (right-click).
* As with before, there are no spells in the [[Lunar Spells|Lunar spellbook]] that can be set to autocast.
* You can still choose whether to receive [[Defence]] XP or not when autocasting spells via the new toggle button in the bottom-left corner of your spellbook.
* You can now also receive [[Defence]] XP for single-casting spells that deal damage, if you have this option toggled on.
* Four buttons have been added to the bottom of the [[Interface|Magic Spellbook interface]] that allow you to filter what spell icons are visible. Click on these buttons to toggle the visibility of combat, [[teleport]], skill-based and miscellaneous spells.
* As staves are no longer required for autocasting, we have granted some of the more special ones the ability to cause 10% more [[magic damage]]. The following staves receive this bonus:
** [[Ahrim's staff]]
** [[Master wand]]
** [[Void Knight mace]]
** [[Zuriel's staff]]
** [[Corrupt Zuriel's staff]]
** [[Ancient staff]]
* Finally, it is also now possible to autocast these spells:
** [[Saradomin Strike]]
** [[Flames of Zamorak]]
** [[Iban Blast]]
** [[Claws of Guthix]]
