 +

== How Does Combat Work? ==
+
=Recommended Gear=
−
There are four styles of combat that you can choose to do: melee, ranged, magic, or hybrid. Melee makes use of melee weapons (such as scimitars and daggers). Ranged makes use of ranged weapons (such as longbows and crossbows). Magic makes use of magic weapons (such as staffs and wands). Hybrid utilizes 2 or more of the above skills with weapons that provide hybrid statistics (such as Shapeless Scythe)
+
A party for dungeons usually consists of 2 DPS and a tank.
 +
==DPS==
 +
Two-handed weapons have higher DPS than one-handed ones at cost of lower defense, however since we have a tank we use two-handed weapons for the extra DPS.
 +
*Level: 50+ in {{img|magic|22|word=1}} and {{img|defense|22|word=1}}.

*Armor: [[Greater Imbued Gear|<img src="https://www.play.idlescape.com/images/combat/equipment/magic/greater_imbued_robe_hood.png" alt="Elder Robe Hood" width="22" height = "22"> Greater Imbued Gear]] or [[Elder Gear|<img src="https://www.play.idlescape.com/images/combat/equipment/magic/elder_robe_hood.png" alt="Elder Robe Hood" width="22" height = "22"> Elder Gear]].

=== Player, Equipment Stats, and Skills ===
+
==Tank==
−
Both your equipment and your skill levels decide how effective you are in combat. You must know how they work in order to make effective loadouts. Combat is broken into six skills, each with their own experience and how to earn it.  
+
{{img|Ancient Nature Amulet|22|word=1}} is a good choice for tanks regardless of Nature's Blessing buff, because of the {{img|Fortitude|22|word=1}} enchantment on it.
 +
*Level: 50+ in {{img|defense|22|word=1}} and {{img|magic|22|word=1}} or {{img|strength|22|word=1}}.
 +
*Armor: [[Stygian Gear|Stygian]] or [[Runite Gear|Runite]] tank set.
 +
*Level: 50+ in {{img|magic|22|word=1}}
 +
*Weapon: {{img|Stygian Battleaxe|22|word=1}} or {{img|Runite Battleaxe|22|word=1}} paired with {{img|Stygian Shield|22|word=1}} or {{img|Runite Shield|22|word=1}} enchanted with {{img|healing|22|word=1}} which greatly increase a mercenary's Health, or {{img|Sylvan Staff|22|word=1}} paired with {{img|Ancient Nature Amulet|22|word=1}} for a more healing/defensive buff focused tank.
  
−
* Constitution: Earned when other Combat experience is earned.  
+
=Monsters=
−
* Attack: Landing hits in Combat. Defense: Taking, mitigating and dodging damage in Combat.
+
All the monsters are weak to {{img|magic|22|word=1}} and [[File:Crush_splash.png|frameless|22px|link=Combat#Affinities]] Crush and resistance to {{img|Melee|22|word=1}} and {{img|range|22|word=1}}. The Advisor has +200% defensive [[File:Poison_splash.png|frameless|22px|link=Combat#Affinities]] poison affinity, so a poison build isn't ideal.

=== The Offensive Stats ===
+
[[Category:Zones]]
−
 
 
−
* '''Strength''' (Melee), '''Dexterity''' (Ranged), and '''Intelligence''' (Magic) are the main offensive stats and modify your overall damage for their respective fields. They are also affected by Combat Skill Levels ('''Strength''', '''Ranged''', and '''Magic''').
 
−
* '''Crit Chance''' is your chance to hit an enemy for Critical damage, when you do hit a crit, it'll add damage based off your '''Crit Multiplier'''. Having a Crit Chance of 30% and a Crit Mult of 50% means that you have a 30% chance on hit to do 50% more damage.
 
−
 
 
−
* '''Accuracy''' is what decides your hit chance against the enemy. There are several different types of accuracy, where the types of abilities you use will be affected by those. For example the ability 'Fireball' will make use of Magic Accuracy and Fire Accuracy.
 
−
 
 
−
=== The Defensive Stats ===
 
−
 
 
−
* '''Protection''' is your physical damage reduction. Any melee or ranged damage that an enemy hits you with will be reduced using this value.
 
−
* '''Resistance''' is your magic damage reduction. Any magic damage that an enemy hits you with will be reduced using this value.
 
−
* '''Agility''' is used to calculate your dodge chance. The higher this value is, the less likely it is that an enemy will be able to hit you.
 
−
* '''Stamina''' determines the value of your total health, in addition to your '''Constitution''' level
 
−
 
 
−
== Affinities ==
 
−
Affinities are used in calculating your effectiveness for each subclass of combat, both for offense and defense. A good example of this are Breatplates, which give a high amount of negative offensive affinities, but lots of positive defensive affinities in return. This makes them very effective at tanking, but not good at outputting damage. Affinities are added together from item to item (ex. a fire amulet provides +15% fire affinity, which would be added with the +35% fire affinity given by the Mantle of Flame to give a total fire affinity of +50%). Affinities can increase or decrease your total effectiveness in combat, but not as drastically as it first seems. Each ability used takes an average of all styles used in an ability.
