Tip It Runescape Information
Certain weapons, mostly melee weapons, have special attacks on them. These are almost always high-end weapons. The amount of times you can do a special attack is determined by how much percentage of the special attack bar it takes per attack. This is different for every attack. For example you can hit 4 specials with a dragon longsword or a dragon dagger.
A player's 'overall combat level' is derived from the 7 stats mentioned above: attack, strength, defence, hitpoints, magic, prayer, and ranged. The combat level is designed to indicate a players overall strength and is also used to decide which players can fight each other to stop, for example, very high level players preying on very new players. The maximum combat level in RuneScape Classic is 123 (123.75), and the maximum in RuneScape 2 is 126 (126.225).
Ranged Weapons - Bows and Arrows
Bows are the most popular ranged weapons in RuneScape , and the only ones that can be used by nonmembers are the bow and arrows. Both of these can be fletched by members. Nonmembers can buy bows in the archery shop in Varrock and in Rimmington (or from other players). Arrows can be bought from these stores or received from monster drops.
The following are the types of bows (with ranged level requirements in parenthesis and italicized bows being members only):
- Long/short bow (level 1),
- Oak long/short bow (level 5),
- Willow long/short bow (level 20),
- Maple long/short bow (level 30),
- Yew long/short bow (level 40),
- Magic long/short bow (level 50; both with special attacks),
The arrows are identified by the metal their heads are made of. They do not have ranged level requirements, but the better arrows can only be used by the better bows (all arrows are non-members except rune arrows):
- Bronze arrows (can be used with any bow)
- Iron arrows (can be used with any bow)
- Steel arrows (must be used with oak bow or better)
- Mithril arrows (must be used with willow bow or better)
- Adamant arrows (must be used with maple bow or better)
- Rune arrows (must be used with yew bow or better)
