Can someone please explain melee for me, and how to go about it? I have seen it mentioned a few times in quest guides and feel a little confused.

 

 

 

An idiots type guide would be very much appreciated

Melee is the attack and strength skills. To melee something, get your weapon, and kill something. Pretty simple :|

yes, melee is a term not only used in RS, but even in RL :shock: . Most RS concepts (besides magic/ lore/ that jass) are based on real things, so even a regular dictionary can help you with most terms.

It's also defense, and hitpoints.

You can have 99 defence and hitpoints without having meleed anything, so the melee stats are just attack and strength..

When training attack and strength your defence will come into account so it should be including.

most rs terms are based off the real life. some are made up though like rune.

 

 

 

yeah a dictionary would be helpful. now maybe turn this thread around and ask where you could train?

I have no problems with training. I do a lot of slaying. Its just the terminology sometimes confuses me. #-o

Melee is close, hand to hand combat.

 

 

 

The only 2 melee stats are attack and strength.

 

 

 

Defense and HP can be trained via mage/range making them not strictly a melee skill.

Its a hard one to explain simply.

 

 

 

"Hand to Hand" or "Close" not necessary halberds for example distance you from then so they can't attack you.

 

Then there's familiars which give you melee (attack or strength exp) for just sitting back and ranging/maging.

 

 

 

Short, but sweet explanation.

 

Melee is when your damaging something using something which doesn't leave your body (ie its not an arrow).

 

 

 

O and FYI runes are based on the Norse runes.
