The maximum combat level a player can reach is level 138. A player's combat level begins at level 3. Players can advance a skill to level 99 (except for Archaeology, Dungeoneering, Invention, Slayer, Farming, and Herblore, which can go to level 120) after that, they can increase their experience up to 200,000,000 - but gain no more levels for doing so. Constitution starts out at level 10, so the player has a fair advantage against monsters. While some skills may be less profitable than others, the main cause of loss of profit is through a lack of the player acquiring their own materials.Īll skills, with the exception of Constitution, start out at level 1. Conversely, other skills may not be profitable. Please refer to the Money-making guide for more details. Training certain skills may be profitable, such as selling logs obtained from woodcutting, selling the fish from the fishing skill, or selling the drop(s) from a slayer assignment. Skills are often contrasted with money, some of which are profitable, and others which do not provide the player with any in game wealth whatsoever. The higher the players level is in a given skill, the more resources the player will unlock from that skill to enhance game play.Īchieving higher levels in skills can give players various advantages, such as agility shortcuts, faster cutting of wood, etc. Altars may be constructed within one's player-owned house with this skill which can be used to further train prayer.

Some herblore potions may, for example, boost mining so players can mine ores to smith with, which may then be used to create nails. Food can then be used to replenish life points to help in Combat, which can be used to kill NPCs that drop herbs, which may then be used for Herblore. For example, logs obtained from Woodcutting can be used for Firemaking, and fires from firemaking can be used for Cooking food. However, free-to-play players can train the members' skills up to level 5, with the exception of the elite skill Invention, which can't be trained by free-to-play players, and Archaeology, which can be levelled up to 20.Ĭertain skills may allow players to cook, chop down trees, make fires, use magic, craft runes, and so on. Members have access to all 28 skills, while free-to-play players may only access 17 of these skills. There are 28 skills available to train in RuneScape.
