Armor is worn to help protect oneself from attacks. Different kinds of armor provide different amounts of protection, but no armor can protect you completely. Some armor can even have disadvantages. For example, metal armor conducts magical energy and makes magic based attacks stronger.


Anything lower than mithril is pretty much useless although low level free players can use them the bonuses are pretty bad.

To learn more about combat, see the [[RuneScape/Skills/Combat|combat]] guide. Also please note in this guide I have considered ''Full Armour'' to be 1 Full Helmet, 1 Platebody, 1 Platelegs and 1 Square Shield.


==Quest Armor==
==Quest Armor==
KHAZARD ARMOR - This armor is used in Fight Arena. In order to get into the Khazard Battlefield, you must be wearing this armor. However, change into better armor once you begin to fight the Khazard Ogre.

== Member only Armor ==
=== Dragon ===
The second most expensive armor in the game. Most of the dragon pieces can be obtained from drops from monsters, the med. helmet, chain, legs, and the two handed sword dragon full helm can be obtained from drops. Although as of the release of barbarian assault the chain dragon full helm can be obtained there. The scimitar needs the completion of the Monkey Madness quest, and the longsword needs the Lost City quest (they can both be bought from stores in the unlocked areas). The mace requires the Heroes Quest.
 
You can also get the left half of the dragon square shield from drops from monsters, you need to buy the other half at the legends guild for 750k. You need 60 smithing to put them both together.
 
*Dragon legs: 100k
*Dragon med helm: 30k
*Dragon Chainbody: 3.5 million gp
*Dragon sq shield: 305k
**Dragon sq shield right half: 750k
**Dragon sq shield left half: 65k
**Dragon Full Helmet:42 million gp
 
**Full dragon plate armour set:roughly 49.3 million gp
**Full dragon chain armor set:roughly 5.5 million gp
 
=== Armoured gloves ===
(gloves are non-tradeable and are purchesable during the "Recipe for Disaster" quest)
 
*Bronze gloves: 150 gp
*Iron gloves: 500 gp
*Steel gloves: 1,500 gp
*Mithril gloves: 2,500 gp
*Adamant gloves: 4,500 gp
*Rune gloves: 6,500 gp
*Dragon gloves: 100k
*Barrows gloves: 100k


==Bronze Armor==
==Bronze Armor==
The very worst kind, not worth buying because almost immediately you can get full iron. Just about useless.
The very worst kind, not worth buying because almost immediately you can get full iron.
 
*Bronze Medium Helmet: 10 gp
*Bronze Full Helmet: 20 gp
*Bronze Square Shield: 30 gp
*Bronze Kiteshield: 40 gp

*Bronze Plateskirt: 50 to 80 gp
*Bronze Chainbody: 75 gp
*Bronze Platebody: 100 gp
''Full Bronze'' 175 to 240 gp
 
You can use the bronze full helm, body, and legs at the warriors guild to fight against and kill. they drop about 5 tokens each kill but be warned... sometimes parts break, so bring extra pieces just in case.


==Iron Armor==
==Iron Armor==
The first set of armor that is actually worth buying. Commonly used by pures who can't wear any real armor. Pretty useless.
 
*Iron Medium Helmet: 50 gp
*Iron Full Helmet: 75 gp
*Iron Square Shield: 100 gp
*Iron Kiteshield: 125 gp
*Iron Platelegs: 150 gp
*Iron Plateskirt: 150 to 280 gp
*Iron Chainbody: 200 gp
*Iron Platebody: 300 gp
''Full Iron'' 650 to 2000 gp
 
==Black Armour==
 
*Black Medium Helmet: 300 to 1,000,0 gp
*Black Full Helmet: 1,500 to 2,500,0 gp
*Black Square Shield: 1,000,0 gp
*Black Kiteshield: 2,000 gp to 3,000,0 gp
*Black Platelegs: 1,500 to 2,000,0 gp
*Black Plateskirt: 1,500 gp to 2,000,0 gp
*Black Chainbody: 1,000 gp to 2,000,0 gp
*Black Platebody: 3,000 to 3,500,0 gp
''Full Black'' 7500 to 12500,0 gp


==Steel Armor==
==Steel Armor==
The first half useful set of armor for high levels, it's cheap and commonly made strictly for smithing exp. Not yet useful, but getting there.
 
*Steel Medium Helmet: 150 gp
*Steel Full Helmet: 300 to 550 gp
*Steel Square Shield: 350 gp
*Steel Kiteshield: 850 to 1028 gp
*Steel Platelegs: 500 to 1000 gp
*Steel Plateskirt: 500 to 1000 gp
*Steel Chainbody: 500 to 700 gp
*Steel Platebody: 1,000 to 1,960 gp
''Full Steel'' 2500 to 5000 gp
 


==Mithril Armor==
==Mithril Armor==
The first set that is respectable, has a good defense and isn't outrageously expensive so it is common for PKers. Useful.
 
*Mithril Medium Helmet: 450 to 500 gp
*Mithril Full Helmet: 1,000 gp
*Mithril Square Shield: 1,000 gp
*Mithril Kiteshield: 2,000 to 3,000 gp

*Mithril Plateskirt: 2,000 to 3,000 gp
*Mithril Chainbody: 2,000 to 4,000 gp
*Mithril Platebody: 5,000 gp
''Full Mith'' 15000 to 25000 gp


==Adamant Armor==
==Adamant Armor==
Very possibly the bane of the armor market, it's barely worse than rune armor, but drastically cheaper.  Very useful, especially for those without money and those who like to PK (and die).
