About Magic staff

The Magic staff is a free-to-play weapon in Old School RuneScape.

"A Magical staff"

Over the last 30 days it traded between 239 and 1,581 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 525 gp. About 841 units changed hands per day. The price is down 51.9% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 125 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 10 gp in Grand Exchange tax.

Casting High Level Alchemy returns 120 gp, which is 77.1% below the 30-day average price, so alching a bought one loses money.
