The Abyssal Whip is among the most powerful and popular non-degradable melee weapons. It is capable of attacking at the same speed of daggers and scimitars at 2.4 seconds per hit. One of the downsides of the Abyssal Whip is that it is not effective for training strength as the only attack option available which will provide strength experience is the "lash" attack option, which provides shared experience.

The Abyssal Whip requires a level of at least 70 Attack in order to equip.
