New Magic Spells Introduced on the p2p version of Runescape

Jagex has today introduced new magic spells on the member's worlds (p2p version of Runescape). They are 4 high level spells, available on the "regular" or what they call "modern" spell book.

Wind Surge - 81 magic required - 75 basic magic xp - 22 damage
Water Surge - 85 magic required - 80 basic magic xp - 24 damage
Earth Surge - 90 magic required - 85 basic magic xp - 26 damage
Fire Surge - 95 magic required - 90 basic magic xp - 28 damage

I think that this is great news for mages and hybrids pkers alike, especially for those who do not like the "ancients" spellbook. Now I'd say that the regular spellbook is fairly complete for p2players. It contains useful "stopping" spells like snare and entangle, the handy teleblock spell and now some very convenient high damaging spells.

While the 3 arena spells were also good and powerful, they are not convenient for hybrids, or pkers/pures with several attacking styles.

Furthermore, they also updated how magic potions would work, so that when you drink some, it will raise your maximum hit. Also, changed how runecrafting works, so one would get a little more runes when runecrafting. This should be excellent for f2p players as magic will be more affordable for them.  How do you like this update? And stay tuned - a new breakthrough magic guide will be released soon!
