The trident of the swamp is a staff made by using a magic fang on a trident of the seas with a chisel, requiring 59 crafting to do so. It is tradeable only when uncharged. The fang can be removed from the trident only when it is uncharged. It requires level 75 Magic to wield. The built-in spell cannot be used against players outside of the Castle Wars and TzHaar Fight Pit minigames, as well as the Clan Wars minigame if the clan leaders enable it. The trident cannot be used to autocast any other combat spells.

The trident can hold up 2,500 charges when fully charged. Charging the staff requires 1 death rune, 1 chaos rune, 5 fire runes and 1 Zulrah's scales per cast. Both hands must be free in order to charge the weapon. Trident charges can be removed at anytime to recover the runes and scales.

The toxic trident has increased bonuses, provided it is charged with Zulrah's scales. In addition, players using combat spells when wielding the trident have a 25% chance of inflicting venom on their opponent.

In addition, the trident of the swamp has increased base damage by 3, meaning it has 3 higher max damage than the regular trident of the seas. This would put the max hit of the swamp trident at 34 with the occult necklace, 35 with an occult and a boosted magic level, and 40 with the aforementioned equipment/boosts as well as an imbued slayer helm on a task.

If a player dies with the trident, any scales that were used to charge it will appear on the floor along with the uncharged trident.

Comparison between other magic weapons

Name		Levels to equip	Magic Attack bonus	Notes
	Kodai wand	75	+28	Can autocast Ancient Magicks. Provides unlimited water runes while equipped. Boosts magic damage by 15%. When a combat spell is cast with the staff, there is a 15% chance that the wand will negate the rune cost for that spell. Currently offers the highest stat of any magic weapon in both magic attack and defence.
	Sanguinesti staff	75	+25	Slightly stronger than the Trident of the swamp, with the same stats but able to hit one damage higher. Requires 3 per charge of the built-in spell. Built-in spell damage scales with the player's Magic level and can hit up to 32 at 99 . Has a 1 in 6 chance to heal the wielder by half the damage dealt. Tied with the Toxic staff of the dead and Trident of the swamp for second-highest magic attack bonus.
	Trident of the swamp	75	+25	Has the same benefits as the Trident of the seas, but with +10 more magic attack bonus. Requires 115 and 1 Zulrah scale (instead of coins) per charge of the built-in spell, and can hold up to 2500 charges. Built-in spell damage scales with the player's Magic level and can hit up to 31 at 99 . Has 25% chance to inflict venom on the target. Tied with the Sanguinesti staff and Toxic staff of the dead for second-highest magic attack bonus.
	Toxic staff of the dead	75 75	+25	Has the same benefits as the Staff of the dead, but with +8 more magic attack bonus. Requires Zulrah's scales to recharge (up to 11000). Has 25% chance to inflict venom on an opponent. Tied with the Sanguinesti staff and Trident of the swamp for second-highest magic attack bonus.
	Master wand	60	+20	Can autocast Ancient Magicks. Requires 240 Telekinetic, 240 Alchemist, 2400 Enchantment and 240 Graveyard points, and a teacher wand equipped or in the player's inventory, to purchase from the Mage Training Arena. Thus it does not cost much besides the time and runes spent in the Mage Training Arena.
	Staff of light	75 75	+17	Can autocast Saradomin Strike and Magic Dart. Otherwise possesses identical bonuses to the Staff of the dead
	Staff of the dead	75 75	+17	Can autocast Flames of Zamorak and Magic Dart. Boosts magic damage by 15%. Has a special attack that halves all melee damage the player takes for one minute, which stacks with the PvP damage reduction effect of the Protect from Melee prayer. This consumes 100% of the player's special attack. When a combat spell is cast with the staff, there is a 1/8 (12.5%) chance that the staff will negate the rune cost for that spell. Currently the strongest staff when used as a melee weapon, surpassing the Ancient staff and Iban's staff, and provides +17 magic defence.
	Trident of the seas	75	+15	Has its own built-in spell, requiring charges which cost 115 runes and 10 coins per cast. Can hold up to 2,500 charges. Built-in spell damage scales with the player's Magic level and can hit up to 28 at 99 . Has a weapon speed of 6 (same as scimitars/whip), while all other forms of combat magic only have 5 (same as longswords). Because the spell is built-in, the player does not need to carry its runes in their inventory and can use Lunar spells or Ancient Magicks while wielding this staff.
	Smoke battlestaff	30 (Battlestaff) 40 (Mystic)	+10	Provides unlimited fire and air runes. Grants a 10% accuracy and damage boost for combat spells on the standard spellbook.
	Iban's staff	50 50	+10	Only staff able to cast (and autocast) Iban Blast. Can cast this spell up to 120 (2,500 if upgraded) times before needing to be recharged. Iban Blast has a max hit of 25. Currently the third strongest staff when used as a melee weapon, behind the Ancient staff and the (Toxic) Staff of the dead.
	God staves	60	+6	Required to cast God spells. Those who have 80 and the respective God cape can use the Charge spell, which increases the God spell's damage by 50%.
	Ancient staff	50 50	+15	Can autocast Ancient Magicks. Currently the second strongest staff when used as a melee weapon, behind the (Toxic) Staff of the dead.
	Slayer's staff	50 55	+12	Can autocast Magic Dart and Crumble Undead, in addition to the four Wave spells. Runes required to cast Magic Dart are very cheap compared to spells of a similar level. Maximum hit of Magic Dart is 10 + (player's magic level / 10), rounded down.
	Elemental staves	1 (Basic) 30 (Battlestaff) 40 (Mystic)	+10	Provide unlimited runes of their respective elements. Elemental staves (air, water, earth and fire) provide one type of rune. Combination staves (lava, mud, mist, dust, steam and smoke) provide two types of runes. However, they have a slower attack speed than better staves (3 seconds per cast instead of 2.4)
