Mithyr's Star Landing Spots

Home > Distractions and Diversions > Falling Stars

Sites are grouped by estimated location. You can hover over small maps for a closer view. Don't forget your pick! A Lunar/Dramen staff and run-and-energy enhancement are good ideas to carry along too. (Spotty capes, penance gloves, boots of lightness, energy pots, Spirit Terrorbird with scrolls, Oo\'glug salty pool.)

How can you find stars?

Stars can be spotted ahead of their arrival by using a telescope in the Study of a Player Owned House. You can use yours or someone else's and anyone can read any level of scope at that scope's accuracy.

What are the telescope accuracies and the associated levels?

Better telescopes give tighter windows for the time that the star hits.

Scope	Construction Level	Window Accuracy
Oak	44	30 minutes
Teak	64	10 minutes
Mahogany	84	2 minutes

How do stars appear?

Stars arrive at random times in a random location for each world. Across all worlds, all of the stars land in a 20 minute time range. The star to star interval in a world is about 2 hours.

Immediately following a star fall, a telescope will show nothing (your character makes a random comment). Within a about 10 minutes, the next star to land in the world will show up in the telescope. At the site where the star lands, it will appear with a whistling noise and a shadow moving from the east, west to the site. On landing, it will break into a random level, 1 to 9. When the star has been mined down, the sprite inside the star will be revealed. The sprite now hangs out for about 10 minutes and once its time is up, it will simply disappear. If the star is not mined completely before the next star arrives, it will also disappear.

What are these levels? Why can't I mine the star?

Stars fracture into a random level when they crash. Only higher level miners can break the highest level stars. Even so, as a star is mined, it will drop through the levels until it cracks open when level 1 has been mined down. Anyone of at least 10 mining can mine part of any star as long as they can get to it and higher levels are there to break it down to their level. There is also a greater likelihood of gems being mined from the higher levels of a star.

What is this star dust? What do I do with it?

Star dust is what you mine from the star. Its only use in the game is to turn in to the sprite at any star. For turning in the dust you get a proportional amount of Cosmic runes, Astral runes, Gold ore notes and Gold coins.

Talk to the sprite at any cracked open star to trade in your dust. You only get to turn in dust one time in a day, even if you only turn in 1 dust! Days renew at about midnight UTC+0 (aka. GMT or Zulu) within server update tolerance.

The maximum amount of dust that you can have is 200, and that is the total on your character and in the bank. You can mine stars without restriction and still get experience for mining dust at the stars current level.

If you die while carrying dust, it is not an item left on the ground to pick up.

Star dust is untradeable and has no value except what you can trade it for at a star.

The maximum amounts of the reward for turning in 200 dust are 50,002 GP, 152 Cosmics, 52 Astrals and 20 Gold ore notes.

Are there other rewards? What's this tagging first? What is the mining bonus after turning in dust?

Besides the rewards from trading in dust and the relatively fast mining experience for mining the star, there are 2 more rewards that are possible.

If you are the first person to touch (not necessarily to mine) a star, you get a tag bonus of mining experience that is your level in mining times 75. For example, if you just reached 10 mining and happened to tag a star for the first time that you could mine it, your tag bonus would be 750 mining experience. On the other hand, a 99 mining level player can tag a star first for 7425 experience.

The other reward for turning in your dust is the mining bonus. For turning in 200 dust, for 15 minutes afterward you can mine any ore and have about a 10% chance to recover an extra ore. With a Varrock plate mining bonus, it is possible to mine 3 ores at a time from 1 rock. It has also been noted that this mining bonus can score double ores from a runite rock.
