Overview
Combat is thought by some as the most important part of the game RuneScape. It comes in many other different skills, which can be found throughout the guide. It is simply used to kill monsters, and other players. Other players can only be killed in the Wilderness and the Duel Arena. It also shows how experienced a player you are as the higher your level, the more respect you get. This guide covers the three aspects of melee fighting - <a href="#attack">Attack</a>, <a href="#strength">Strength</a> and <a href="#defence">Defence</a>, as well as <a href="#constitution">Constitution</a>.
