  • What is Herblaw?: Herblaw is the newest skill that has been added into the Runescape world.  This skill is currently restricted to the members only service.  Herblaw is the skill of creating potions (such as a strength potion) and identifying different herbs.  The higher the player's herblaw skill is, the more potions he or she can create.  Each and every herb can only be identified and used when a player's herblaw skill reaches a certain minimum lvl.  Once a herb is identified, the player can continue use it, but he/she will never have to identify it again.  All potions require the combination of a herb and a second ingredient.  The herb must be placed in a vial (bought at the herblaw shop) that has been filled with water (Vial filled with water) to create an unfinished potion.  Then add the second ingredient to create the potion.  Some potions require some of their ingredients to be ground or crushed.  This can be accomplished by buying a pestle and mortar from the herblaw shop.  All potions give 3 doses, each dose having the effect listed below.

  • Skill Boost: Just like magic, mining, and smithing, there are special drinks that will temporarily increase the left-hand side of the herblaw stat.  One is a Greenman's Ale (), available only in the Yanille pub.  This offers a guaranteed +1 boost to your herblaw.  The other option, which is more risky than the ale, is to get Poison Chalices (Poison Chalice) from Stankers, who can be found standing next to the coal trucks up at the coal mine NW of Hemenster.  This has a random effect, which will either do nothing, cause damage to your HP, or increase/decrease stats temporarily.

  • Herblaw Shop: This special shop serves some of the needs of all people that use the herblaw skill.  It is located in Taverley, which is a members only area.

You will be hit with a poison arrow when you open the chest, so have a poison cure on hand.  When you open the chest you will get 9 herbs: 1 Torstol, 1 Kwuarm, 1 Avantoe, 1 Irit leaf, 3 Ranarr weeds, and 2 Harralander.
