What is Splashing?
Splashing is a magic training method where a player continuously hits zeroes on their opponent. By doing this, the opponent will never die and you stay in combat.
This is a great magic training method because you can do it while being AFK.
On top of that, it’s also relatively cheap compared to other magic training methods.
How to Splash in OSRS
In order to successfully splash in osrs, you need to have – 65 magic attack bonus.
Once you have that, you will ALWAYS hit zeroes.
You can achieve -65 magic by wearing full iron or bronze armour alongside green d’hide vambraces (requires 40 ranged).
Here’s an example of armour you can wear to splash:
- Iron full helm
- Iron platebody
- Iron platelegs
- Green d’hide vambraces
When splashing, make sure auto-retaliate is on and you have enough runes on you.
Also, make sure to click somewhere on your screen once every 10 minutes to prevent yourself from logging out.
How to Splash in OSRS Without 40 Ranged
If you don’t have 40 Ranged for the green d’hide vambraces, you can still splash perfectly fine but you will need to purchase the Cursed Goblin Staff from Diango. (located in the market of Draynor Village)
How to Splash on Ironman in OSRS
As an ironman player, you don’t need to buy full iron, bronze, or other set.
All you need is your ironman armour which can be obtained from the iron tutors in Lumbridge.
You will need to swap out the vambraces with green d’hide though.
If you don’t have 40 ranged yet, you can use the Cursed Goblin Staff instead as mentioned above here.
Where to Splash in OSRS
You can splash just about anywhere in Gielinor except for Lumbridge.
Splashing in Lumbridge is impossible due to a new update preventing players from doing so.
Otherwise, you can splash all over Gielinor on low-level monsters.
You can basically splash anything you want, just make sure they won’t do any damage to you.
Some low-level monsters you can splash are:
- level 1 chickens
- level 1 rats
- level 2 cows
- level 1 seagulls
Here are some examples of common splashing spots in osrs:
- Mage of Zamorak in the Varrock Castle (he’s locked in the jail under the staircase)
- Seagulls in Port Sarim
- Ducks in Fishing Guild
- Chickens at Champion’s Guild (requires 32 quest points)
- The list goes on
Best Splashing Spells to use
The magic spell you use to splash will directly define exactly how much experience per hour you’ll be getting.
Of course, most splashers stick to the inexpensive spells to save money.
Here are some common splash spells alongside their experience and cost per hour:
| Spell | Exp rate | Exp rate with Nightmare staff | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fire Strike | 13.8k per hour | 17k per hour | 3.5k per hour |
| Fire Bolt | 27k per hour | 33.5k per hour | 61k per hour |
| Fire Blast | 41k per hour | 51k per hour | 235k per hour |
| Fire Wave | 51k per hour | 64k per hour | 450k per hour |
| Fire Surge | 60k per hour | 75k per hour | 450k per hour |
Fire is the strongest variant of every spell so you should always splash using fire as it costs just as much to do any of the other spells.
As you can see, if you want to be cost-efficient, you should use fire strike but you will level very slowly at 13.8k experience per hour.
