⚔️ Combat

Combat is four trainable skills — Melee, Ranged, Magic and Hitpoints. You train them by fighting monsters in combat areas and dungeons.

The four combat skills

Skill	How it trains	What it raises
⚔️ Melee	Fighting with a melee weapon equipped	Melee damage & accuracy
🏹 Ranged	Fighting with a ranged weapon (consumes ammo)	Ranged damage & accuracy
🪄 Magic	Casting combat spells (consumes runes)	Magic damage & accuracy
❤️ Hitpoints	Earned automatically from all combat	Max HP — equal to Hitpoints level × 10

Combat XP

Every hit, and every kill, awards XP to your active style and to Hitpoints:

• Style XP = damage × 4, plus monster XP × 0 on the killing blow.
• Hitpoints XP = damage × 1.33, plus monster XP × 0 on the killing blow.

Damage & accuracy

Each swing is resolved against the target's Defense:

• Max hit = floor(1 + level ÷ 5 + styleBonus ÷ 2), plus any spell / ammo / whetstone damage.
• Hit chance = (level + styleBonus + 5) ÷ (level + styleBonus + 5 + targetDefense + 5), clamped to 10–95%.
• styleBonus is your equipped gear's bonus for the active style — compare it on the Gear pages.

Combat triangle

Each style is strong against one and weak against another. With the advantage you gain +15% hit chance and +10% damage (and the inverse with the disadvantage).

Your style	Strong vs	Weak vs
⚔️ Melee	🏹 Ranged	🪄 Magic
🏹 Ranged	🪄 Magic	⚔️ Melee
🪄 Magic	⚔️ Melee	🏹 Ranged
