The Arclight is a weapon requiring level 75 Attack to wield that is extremely effective against demon type monsters. The Arclight can be made by using the Darklight on the Altar at the Centre of the Catacombs with 3 Ancient shards in the player's inventory. It has 1000 charges when initially crafted and gets an additional 1000 charges for every 3 shards added, and can hold a maximum of 10,000 charges. It consumes one charge per attack used with the weapon.
Arclight provides a 70% increase in accuracy and strength when used against demonic creatures. This gives it slightly superior stats to the Abyssal tentacle.
Arclight's retains the Darklight's special attack, Weaken, which uses 50% of the player's special attack energy and lowers the opponent's Strength, Attack, and Defence levels by 5% (10% for demons). Weaken's effect is only activated if the player does not miss.

Trivia
- Prior to the update of 23 February 2017, players were able to use low and high level alchemy on Arclight. Low level alchemy would convert the blade to 200 coins and high level alchemy would convert it to 300 coins.
- Prior to the update of 16 June 2016, Arclight did not have a special attack.
- The stats were reevaluated and changed after multiple player complaints on how the Arclight was not as strong as the newspost claimed when used against demons at higher combat levels. The same update also gave it a graphical update.
