Introduction

Ranged is one of the three Combat classes in Old School RuneScape. It involves using bows, crossbows, and thrown weapons to damage opponents from a distance. Ranged weapons usually have much higher accuracy than the other combat styles. For this reason, it is often used against monsters with very high Defence.

The combat triangle dictates that Rangers are strong against mages but weak against Melee fighters.

Getting Basic Weapons

You can start at Edgeville. Inside the building north of the bank, you will find a few NPC's that sell items. You will want to look for "Lowe", and "Pure Supplier".

Pure Supplier stocks the rune crossbow, which is highly recommended for players to use in both PvM and PvP as it is highly accurate, and can deal large amounts of damage, with the right bolts.

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"

Here you will find all the Rock crabs you will ever need to start leveling up your combat stats. Start killing these until you feel you have a high enough Ranged level to move on to killing other monsters such as Hill Giants or yaks in Edgeville dungeon.

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"

Here you will find a large amount of Bandits that will automatically attack you, allowing for easy AFK experience. However, you should still check in every now and then as they are still dangerous enough to kill 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.
