Strength is a player's power in melee combat. As a player raises their Strength level, they can deal more damage against opponents. A high Strength level is often favoured by player-killers over their Attack level because it raises max hit, helping to generate the burst damage necessary to kill other players faster than they can heal themselves.

 This is the regular Strength guide, the guide for ironman / hardcore ironman players can be found here.

Strength is a player's power in melee combat. As a player raises their Strength level, they can deal more damage against opponents. A high Strength level is often favoured by player-killers over their Attack level because it raises max hit, helping to generate the burst damage necessary to kill other players faster than they can heal themselves.

Getting Basic Weapons

You can start at Edgeville. Inside the building north-west of the general store, you will find an NPC that sells basic gear. You will want to look for "Oziach".

ysVKoGe.png

Oziach sells your basic armours.

You can get more basic gear and weapons at the table at ::pksupply inside edge bank. All these items are free.

Strength Training Styles

Melee weapons vary in their attack styles. Some have four options, with a controlled option, while others have only three options. Players intending to remain a pure with no Defence need to take care when changing attack styles as you may gain unwanted Defence levels.

Aggressive

The Aggressive combat style is usually the top right option if there are 4 options, usually there is not an Aggressive option on weapons with 3 options. When using the accurate style for every point of damage a player deals, you gain 600 experience in Strength and 150 experience in Hitpoints. Using the aggressive style provides an invisible +3 boost to your Strength level.

Controlled

The Controlled combat style is usually the bottom left option if there are 4 options, or the top right option if there are 3. When using the controlled style for every point of damage a player deals, they gain 200 experience in Attack, Strength, and Defence and 150 experience in Hitpoints. Using the controlled style provides an invisible +1 boost to your Attack, Strength and Defence levels. This attack style is only available in some melee weapons

Where to Train

Rock Crab

The best place to start training any combat skill at a low level is Rock crabs.

To get here click on the world map icon, beside the minimap. p5WpixQ.png

Then select "Combat Training" for the category, and then "Rock Crabs Area"

P1w2hoo.png

Here you will find the Rock crabs that can be killed in order to start levelling up your combat stats. Start killing these until you feel you have a high enough Attack level to move on to killing other monsters such as Hill Giants, in Edgeville Dungeon or Yaks on Neitiznot (South).

Bandits

For players with higher levels, the best place train would be at the Bandits Camp, in the desert.

To get here click on the world map icon, beside the minimap. p5WpixQ.png

Then select "Combat Training" for the category, and then "Bandits Camp"

4ecWTYg.png

Here you will find a large amount of Bandits that will automatically attack anyone who is wearing Saradomin or Zamorak equipment, allowing for easy AFK experience.
An easy god item to obtain are the god capes from the mage bank. To get these simply teleport to the mage bank, in the 'Player Killing' category, when you arive, enter the pool and then follow the path north. Pray at one of the three statues, if you got the Guthix cape, choose another statue.
Once you have a Zamorak/Saradomin item, simply wear it and the bandits will attack you.

It is recommended to bring a bunyip summoning, as they heal you between 1-10 hp every 15 seconds.

Slayer

If you are planning on training all your skills, it might help to do slayer at the same time as training combat. You can find a Slayer guide Here.
