Switching to Ancient Magicks

Warning: Your prayer will go down to 0 when switching your magic book.
Switching to Ancient Magic’s is very easy. To do this take 105 gp (5 gp if you're not using magic carpet) and some water skins go to Al Karhid and go through the Shanty Pass (5 gp - south of Al Kharid). Then go to the Badian Camp (southwest of Shanty Pass) with the magic carpet (100 gp). Continue to the southeast until you reach the Pyramid. You don't need to go through the whole Pyramid like in the Desert Treasure quest. Go around to the back and go up the tunnel, then pray at the alter to switch to Ancient Magicks or switch back to normal Magic.

Ancient Magicks uses
Ancient Magicks is very useful for a few things.
Castle Wars
If you have 70-94 mage Ice burst and Ice Barrage will greatly help your team. It's really useful for dealing deal eight opponents at once with any of those two spells dealing 15-30 damage. It's a bit expensive though because it's not rewarding.
Pking (player killing)
If you are pking with Ancient Magicks you should use ice spells. Ancient Magicks is good for pking when you're a level 94 and have someone to do teleblock.
Pest Control
This is very helpful if you are in a tight spot were there are just too many spinners. You should use Ice Burst or Ice Barrage so you can hit all of the spinners at once.
Ancient Staff
After completing the Desert Treasure quest you can buy the Ancient Staff from Eblis for 80k (can only be bought once). The Ancient Staff is the only magic staff where you can auto select Ancient Magick spells. You can also obtain the staff from killing Mummies in the temple.
