Twinflame staff is an item topic that Gnomonkey covers in 2 videos between 2025-04-24 and 2026-06-30. This article is a stub: his statements are grouped by type, repeated ones merged.
Stats and numbers
- The Twinflame staff gets a bonus against elementally weak monsters and is dropped by the Royal Titans.1
- The Twinflame staff is very slow but very high DPS, with DPS a little better than a Trident of the swamp when casting Fire Wave.1
- The Twinflame staff gives very high DPS on the melee phase and green phase of Zulrah.2
- In Gearscape, Gnomonkey says the Tome of fire is very impactful for Twinflame but not necessary, and he does not have a Tome on his hardcore Iron and still kills Zulrah fine.3
Tips
- Because the Twinflame staff is slow it uses fewer runes, and since it casts normal spells it does not scale with Magic level the way the Trident of the swamp does.2
- The Twinflame staff is fairly easy to get on an Iron Man, and that players want to grind the Titans anyway for the prayer scrolls.4
- Gauntlets are massive for the Twinflame staff against the Maggot King, according to Gnomonkey.5
- If you lack gear like a Tome of fire or general mage accuracy gear such as a Blue Moon helm, Gnomonkey says you probably do not want to mage and should bring a rune crossbow for rubies.6
Gnomonkey's opinion
- Gnomonkey says the Trident of the swamp is only comparable at 99 Magic, so at low 90s or high 80s Magic the Twinflame staff is dramatically better; he calls it basically a better swamp trident for Zulrah and says to grind it before doing Zulrah.2
- Gnomonkey says the Sanguinesti staff only overtakes the Twinflame staff with Heart at 99 Magic, and at 95 Magic it is already worse and about 8% worse on the flame phase.3
- Gnomonkey says the Sanguinesti staff is not better than Twinflame even with thrall DPS included, is very expensive, and that he would rather prevent damage with pillar stalling than heal it with the Sang.7
- Gnomonkey says Twinflame staff is the go-to for budget accounts at the Maggot King, and he says harm staff seems best right now with Shadow extremely close.5
- Gnomonkey says the harm staff is a direct upgrade over the Twinflame staff and Shadow is also really good for the Maggot King.8
- Gnomonkey thinks a ZCB could be better than a Twinflame staff if you have no better mage options, but Twinflame might be easier because you do not take Ruby damage.8
- Gnomonkey calls gauntlets a massive deal for mage at the Maggot King and says mage is always going to be good.6
