Learn how to beat Mages in Old School RuneScape by managing your Magic level and using the right gear. Avoid Bind spells!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Mages hit very hard, often requiring you to heal after every other attack.
  2. 2
    Running from a Mage can be dangerous as they can cast Bind, immobilizing you and leaving you vulnerable.
  3. 3
    Warning: If you are about to die, use a Varrock Teleport to escape the fight and avoid death.
  4. 4
    Consider increasing your Magic level, as it serves as your defense against Magic attacks.
  5. 5
    Alternatively, you can take off most of your armor, leaving only your weapon equipped, or bring Dragonhide armor with you.
  6. 6
    Taking off all armor except your weapon leaves you defenseless against melee fighters.
Tips
  • Prioritize raising your Magic level for better defense against magical attacks.
  • Dragonhide armor offers good protection against Mages.
  • Be aware that removing all armor makes you vulnerable to melee combatants.
  • Always be prepared to teleport away if your health gets critically low.
