The mystic cards are an equipable set of cards obtained by redeeming the code v1r354cqu1r173und0 from Diango in Draynor Village, via the right-click "Redeem-code" option.

The cards are awarded upon completing the final step of the Runestone Basalt ARG clue-hunting event, which was released alongside the launch of the Shattered Relics League. The appearance of the mystic cards is styled after the tarot cards that could be found perched on the three runestone basalt pillars during that league, which would instantly fade away once interacted with. Diango's dialogue upon redeeming the code implies that The Sage gave him the mystic cards to hold until someone completed the event.

It is one of only four melee weapons with an attack speed of 3, with the other ones being the goblin paint cannon, swift blade, and ham joint, with the former two being two handed weapons only, and the latter two being one-handed weapons that may be equipped along with a shield-slot item. The swift blade also exclusively uses Stab and Slash attack styles whereas the others use Crush, and the mystic cards have negative combat stat bonuses whereas the others have no bonuses.

For this reason, it is a purely cosmetic item and cannot be used to train any melee combat skills. For that, players are forced to choose from the previously mentioned crush-based two-handed goblin paint cannon, or crush-based single-handed ham joint. If a stab or slash-weapon is needed then the one-handed swift blade may be used instead.

Whilst having the Mystic cards equipped, other players will have a right-click "Duel" option listed in their right-click choose option menu. Doing this will result in the player throwing a card towards the target, though of course this deals no damage.

If destroyed, a replacement can be obtained from Diango in Draynor Village or from the toy box of a costume room.
