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.
