Items
There are many useful items in game, you can use pots
to get wheat, buckets to get water and milk, shears to get wool
from sheep, tinderboxes on wood logs to start fire, metal bars on
anvils to smith items, ore in furnaces to get metal bars. Most items can
be found or brought in many shops found around Runescape.
Items can be divided in:
Weapons
Quality (Material) of weapon directly influence attack
accuracy and damage you inflict in combat. You can see it directly on status
screen under Characteristics, under Equipment Weapon Aim and Weapon Power. In January
2002 are introduced Min lv. to be able to use some weapons of better
materials.

Notes |
Daggers |
Dagger |
This weapon is the weakest of its material class
(e.g. an iron dagger is the weakest of iron weapons). |
Swords |
Short Swords
Scimitars
Long Swords
2 Handed Sword
|
All these weapons are very similar and have
nearly equal Aim and Power values. |
Axes |
Hatchet or Axe
Battle Axe |
The axe is a tool if used on a tree; you can cut
down trees and produce logs. With axes, it is more difficult to hit a
target than it is with swords but axes inflict more damage. Axes have
lower Aim and higher Power. |
Maces |
Mace
|
Maces are blunt weapons which are easy to hit
targets with, but will deliver low damage. Maces have higher Aim but
lower Power. |
Bows |
Short Bow
Long Bow
Crosbow
|
This is Ranged weapons used in Runescape, Bows
use arrows and crossbow use bolts. You can attack someone in cage,
between iron gates or over fences. Good method is to help a friend in
combat shooting at his target. Damage depends only on skill, on how depend
range and speed. crossbows are slower and do more damage. |
We had a request to post a table with relative power of
weapons of each kind of metal. Here it is:

Here's a shot of someone entirely in Black Armour.
Impressive. You have to get the helmet, top armour and legs at different shops.
The legs are the most difficult to get. Thanks to an Anonymous Informant
for the screenshot! And thanks to all the others for sending in pictures!
Foods
- Cabbage (heals 1 hit point) Pick from the
fields and eat. (note: cabbage from Draynor Manor raises defence by +1
temporarily)
- Meat (heals 3 or more hit points) To make,
use rawmeat with fire.
- Bread (heals 5 or more hit points) To make,
get flour by grinding grain in the windmill, and collecting it in a pot.
Then make dough by combining wheat and water (in a pot or bucket). Finally,
cook the dough in a stove or on a fire to make bread.
- Beer (heals 2 hit points and gives +1
strength, but -2 attack) You can buy it in most bars and inns.
- Kebab (heals randomly, 1/32 chance to make
you lose some HP if you are over 2 hp total. Cannot be fatal) You know about
the dodgy kebabs, but what about the amazing ones? These not only
give you a lot of health back (like 11 HP) but also boost your combat skills
for a short while (+3 in attack, defence and strength). Thanks to Rodrigo
for this information.
See the Pricing and Availability
table at the end of this page for buying and selling information for food.
