Magic logs are logs that can be acquired using the Woodcutting skill from magic trees. Cutting magic trees requires a Woodcutting level of 75 or higher and yields 250 Woodcutting experience per log cut. Due to the slow speed at which magic trees are cut at this level, it is advised that players wait until they have a Woodcutting level of at least 85 before chopping magic trees. Players can expect to gain up to 130 magic logs per hour using a dragon axe.

Magic logs can be fletched into unstrung magic shortbows with a Fletching level of 80, granting 83.3 Fletching experience, or into unstrung magic longbows with a Fletching level of 85, granting 91.5 Fletching experience.

Magic logs can also be burnt with a Firemaking level of 75, granting 303.8 Firemaking experience.

Magic logs are needed for three quests: twelve for Desert Treasure I, one for Mourning's End Part I, and three for unlocking the Gnome Stronghold balloon route (requirement for Monkey Madness II), requiring sixteen magic logs in total.

Ultimate Ironmen can permanently store magic logs with the Friendly Forester log storage or balloon transport log storage.

6 magic logs can be used to light an Abyssal lantern, requiring 75 Firemaking.

Obtaining magic logs

Aside from chopping magic trees, there are other ways to obtain magic logs, which is particularly useful for ironmen accounts.

They are available from the Reward Cart from the Wintertodt and Hunters' loot sack from Hunters' Rumours. Both sources require minimum level 50 Woodcutting to obtain Magic logs as a reward, and rarity scales with Woodcutting level.

They can also be obtained from Brimstone chest (1/30 chance) by completing Slayer tasks for Konar quo Maten if you have 75 combat and get a Brimstone key, and Larran's big chest (1/30 chance) if you are doing Wilderness Slayer and obtain a Larran's key. Magic logs can also be obtained from taking High Gambles with points from the Barbarian Assault minigame.

Towards the end of the Legends' Quest, it is possible to obtain them by allowing Yommi saplings to die and chopping them down, which will yield magic logs about 27% of the time. This cannot be done once the quest is complete. This is a slow and tedious process (~2–4 hours to get the 16 needed), but may be preferable to other options. Approximately 200 seeds are required for 16 magic logs to complete Desert Treasure I, Mourning's End Part 1 and the Gnome Stronghold Balloon Route.

Several monsters drop magic logs, found in the list below.

Trivia

  • There is a glitch which can sometimes occur when opening your bank, or scrolling too quickly within your bank where the inventory icon may become animated. This also affects other animated items such as the Fire cape and Dramen branch.
  • The animated texture that covers Magic logs and Magic trees contains two purple pixels, which can occasionally be seen ingame.
