Castle Wars Items

• Castle Wars is one of the minigames you can play in RuneScape. You play this combat-based team game in the Castle Wars arena, west of Yanille, where you'll compete against a rival team playing Capture the Flag. The members of a winning team receive two Castle Wars tickets each, which you can collect and exchange for armor, weapons and equipment such as capes or potion sets.
  
  

Older Decorative Armor

• Between 2005 and 2010, you could exchange your Castle tickets in the Castle lobby for pieces of armor in three colors: red, white and gold. A full suit of Red Decorative Armor consisted of a body (the top part), legs, boots, a helm and gloves. Red had the lowest statistics of any of the Decorative Armor, being roughly the same as steel armor. Gold had the highest statistics, being analogous to Adamant armor; White had the second highest with similar properties to Mithril.
  
  

Retiring the Armor

• The Red, White and Gold suits of Decorative armor ceased to be available from the Castle lobby when the new versions were introduced. Because you couldn't trade Decorative Armor items, players who already owned them couldn't sell them; they don't appear on the Grand Exchange. Players who had the Red Decorative Armor equipped when the change came into effect were able to keep the look.
  
  

New Decorative Armor

• The new Decorative Armor varieties are Basic, Detailed, Intricate and Profound. Basic Decorative Armor is more or less equivalent to Red Decorative Armor in terms of statistics; it is copper-colored rather than red. White armor was replaced by grayish-silver Detailed Decorative Armor. The original Gold armor was replaced by Intricate Decorative Armor. A new category, Profound Decorative Armor, was added; this is gold in color and has similar properties to Rune armor. All of these items can be bought in the Castle lobby with Castle tickets.
