Entangle is a members-only spell that requires level 79 Magic to cast. Casting Entangle will hold your target in place for 24 ticks (14.4 seconds) and grants 89 Magic experience (in addition to 2 experience per damage dealt). A successful hit, without any damage boosting items, can deal up to 5 damage. When used on a player and the entanglement is about to wear off, the entangled player will receive this message in their chatbox: The holding effect is beginning to fade. Players can increase the binding duration by equipping swampbark armour; the helm, body, and legs will increase the duration by 2 ticks (1.2 seconds) each, up to a maximum of 30 ticks (18.0 seconds).

Once the spell wears off, the target has 5 ticks (3 seconds) of immunity before they can be entangled again.

Unsuccessful cast, or a splash, yields only 70 Magic experience.

Entangle is a stronger version of the level 20 spell Bind and the level 50 spell Snare.

Changes

Date Changes
13 September 2023
(Update)

Lower Magic experience gain of 70 for splashing an Entangle spell is now consistent in both PvP and PvM combat.

21 June 2023
(Update | poll)
  • The maximum Swampbark Armour set bonus for the Entangle spell can now be achieved with just the helm, body and legs as opposed to the full set.
  • Each outfit piece now increases the duration of the Entangle spell by an additional tick, so the complete bonus increases the duration to 6 ticks.
11 January 2023
(Update)

An audio cue and message have been added to the Entangle spell to tell the victims when the freeze is about to expire.

(Update)

Protect from Magic no longer halves the duration of Entangle.
