Combat is an important aspect of the game, and killing monsters is one of most direct ways of gaining wealth. Combat is also needed to complete many of the quests, and can be used to fight other players .
Players are ranked in strength based upon their combat level. Combat levels are based upon a math formula which considers 7 skill areas: a player's attack, defence, strength, hit points, prayer, magic and ranged skill. Other skills, while benificial will not increase one's combat level.
Combat is subdivided into three primary categories: melee, ranged, and magic; a so-called combat triangle.
Burthorpe Games Room
The Burthorpe Games Room is located in the Basement of the castle in Buthorpe , one can choose from two classic games, with runes being used as game pieces. Runelink is similar to Connect 4 . Draughts is the British name for checkers. Jagex has confirmed that players will never be able to stake (bet) in-game items on these games, as it would lead to a new breed of cheating, and would detract from some of the skill of RuneScape.
Instead, they will leave the competitive nature of these games to a rating system, in which your score goes up if you win a game, and down if you lose. Jagex has also promised to add more games since the Buthorpe Games Room has proven sucessful.
