Under Construction

This is obviously under major construction so don't really expect this to be overflowing with information for at least a few weeks.

Skills

In Runescape, there are things called "skills" which are tasks players can level up. For example, one of these skills is cooking. When a player wants to cook, they will have to do a task, such as getting meat to cook on a fire. When the player finishes the task, they recieve get 'xp', or 'experience', towards that skill. For example, for cooking meat, players get 30 xp towards their cooking skill for successfully cooking a piece of meat. Players also have to reach a certain amount of experience to reach the next level. For example, at level 1, players need 83 xp to reach level 2.

The maximum xp that players can earn in each skill is 200,000,000. So far, only 3 players have reached this mark.

There are 21 skills that players can raise in Runescape. However, only 15 of these skills are available for free players, which are listed below. Combat (melee) has 4 skills that players can raise.

Experience Table

Below is the link to the experience table. This table shows players how much experience they need to reach to get to the next level, as well as the experience difference from the last level they were at.

  • Combat (Melee) - This skill involves players fighting with their fists and weapons. This one of the three combat styles.

Quests

In RuneScape, there are many tasks that players can do to help out NPCs. On the player's mini-map (located in the top right part of the game), these tasks are labelled with a blue star and are known as quests. Completing these quests can allow players to gain access to new items or new skills.

This section has quest walkthroughs that can help players complete RuneScape's 103 quests. There are currently 18 free quests and 85 members quests. Each quest varies in difficuly and length. For example, some quests are hard and long while other quests are short and easy. New quests are members-only and are usually added once or twice a month.

Free Quests

These are quests that all players can complete, both members and non-members.

Members Quests

Only members can complete these quests.

Fan Sites

Fan sites are websites that players have made that give other players help and information about RuneScape. These sites are very similiar to this page.

WARNING: Players have been scammed out of their log on information by using some fan sites. These sites are NOT associated with Jagex, the company that makes RuneScape.

Official Sites

These sites are owned by the creators of RuneScape. These sites are safe and secure.

Classes in RuneScape

There are no solid classes in RuneScape. Character development is based on how each player develops his skills. For example, if you want to be a fighting character, you should develop your attack skills.

Skills in RuneScape

Attack : This skill determines how often your melee attacks hit. Also, the higher your attack is, the better melee weapons you can wield.

Strength : This skill determines the amount of damage your melee attacks do.

Defense : This skill determines how well you deflect your opponent's melee attacks. Also, the better your defense is, the better melee armor you can wield.

Hitpoints : This isn't really a skill; your hitpoints gradually increase based on the amount of experience you have in all of your combat skills. When your hitpoints reach 0, you are KO'd and are returned to your current spawning point.

Ranged : This skill determines the accuracy and power of your ranged attacks. With higher ranged levels, you are able to wield better ranged weapons and armor.

Magic : This skill determines the accuracy and high-hit rate of the various spells in RuneScape. The higher your magic level is, the more powerful spells you are able to cast and the better magic enchancing armor and weapons you are able to wield.

Prayer : This skill determines your devotion to RuneScape's various gods. The higher your prayer level is, the more useful protective and stat-enhancing prayers you can use and the longer you can pray.
