Ice Barrage

Ice Barrage is a combat spell that can only be casted if the player has completed Desert Treasure, is currently on the Ancient Magicks spellbook, and has at least level 94 Magic. It requires 4 death runes, 2 blood runes, and 6 water runes to cast. It is the highest level Ice spell and tied for strongest spell in the game along with charged god spells, with a maximum hit of 30. Like all combat spells it hits with a speed of 5 which is the same speed as longswords, spears etc.

Like other barrage spells, it is multi-target and hits anyone in a 3x3 area, up to 9 people per cast. This multi-target effect will not work in single-target combat zones. This spell also is capable of freezing for the longest time of any other spell in the game at 20 seconds as compared to the second longest freezing spells Ice Blitz and Entangle, both of which freeze for 15 seconds. The fact that it hits the highest of any spell in the game, hits up to 9 targets, is very accurate, and freezes for 20 seconds makes it one of the most popular spells. It is also the cheapest of the barrage spells.



Many players use it in minigames such as Castle Wars because there are many people in a small area which utilizes the multi-target affect and can be used to freeze people, allowing their team to pile up on a single player and stop them from taking the flag. It is also commonly used in the Wilderness to stop players from running to give the killer the greatest chance of killing.
