Ward of Arceuus is a spell within the Arceuus spellbook that requires level 73 Magic and the completion of A Kingdom Divided to be cast.

When the player is under the effects of the Ward of Arceuus spell, they will gain various buffs for a certain amount of time ( seconds), where is the player's Magic level at the time of casting.

  • Players are immune to corruption.
  • If successfully bound by grasp spells, players will only be bound in place for 0.6 seconds.
  • Demonic creatures will have their damage reduced by 10%.
  • Demonic creatures will have their prayer drain effects reduced by 33%; this stacks multiplicatively with the spectral spirit shield.

When the damage reduction is calculated, bear in mind that 10% of the incoming damage is first rounded down before being subtracted from the original damage value, meaning no benefit is provided by this spell when hit for less than 10 damage.[1]
