The combat skills are {{Skill|Attack}}, {{Skill|Strength}}, {{Skill|Defence}}, {{Skill|Hitpoints}}, {{Skill|Ranged}}, {{Skill|Magic}}, {{Skill|Prayer}}, and {{Skill|Slayer}}. These skills are factored in when calculating the player's combat level, which is an approximation of the player's power. Players start at combat level 3 and can reach a maximum of combat level 126, while [[monsters]] range from combat level [[Chicken|1]] to [[Ragnar|815]]. The player's combat level affects the difficulty of [[monsters]] given in [[Slayer]] Tasks. | ||

If a player or monster successfully connects with an attack, the damage dealt will be a random value between their minimum and maximum hit. If no relevant equipment or Auroras are active, the player's minimum hit is 1. The minimum hit is applied after all strength and damage bonuses are calculated, which means that only bonuses that directly impact minimum hit will affect minimum hit. (in other words, if a player's minimum hit is 40 and they have +10% damage, they still have a minimum hit of 40 rather than 44) | If a player or monster successfully connects with an attack, the damage dealt will be a random value between their minimum and maximum hit.
