We have redesigned the way autocasting combat spells works so that it no longer requires a magic staff. Now, you can set a spell to autocast via the redesigned 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 spellbook. To set a spell to autocast, simply 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 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 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 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

Auto Retaliate* I don't see what that has to do. Thing is, people will hit 33s with god spells now, 40+ with miasmic barrage in cw if using a cw brace, or 39s with ice barrage now, of course, if using a STAFF too. I see a rise coming ;)

You can't, the update was only for combat magic.

Edit: has anyone else noticed how everyone has 1 more total level in hiscores than total in game?
Probably new skill REALLY soon. Here's a pic:
Max total is 2376, yet for some reason people have :rollseyes: :

They also nerf tds, can't lure the northwest one anymore, but you can still trap him and lure the northeast one instead, so is still possible to solo them.

Imo autocasting spells is harder now lol because when u try to dds and attack u gotta put ur dds on attack style first and even with ancient staf now and used to just click on dds and its on attack style already but not now.. ohwell 33es with barrage ftw:D finnaly a magic update tbh..


and when people starting looking highscores ppl was like haha gertjaars banned and stuff lmao-.-' then he logged and he was no1 again.

Hopefully skill soon readed a forum post say ''notice the 1+ on skill lvls cant wait what next week comes''

he posted that one runescape forums. Not sure what forum mods know but maaaybee a clue :P

*claps* Finally a good update on Mages!, how long has it been?

God Staves will probably be used 65% more due to the autocast, so that will be cool :) oh and the Iban Staff (If u like it that is :S)

Jagex has probably made this update due to complaints about Magic not being updated in 1-3 years, but who knows, i might be wrong

I do hope they release another magic update, or somthing that co-ordinates with magic, its about time that magic should be noticed equally with the other combat families :)
