Combat HQ
The Combat HQ has been updated with tantalizing teasers of buffs and weaknesses,
and how they'll behave in the new combat system!
Buffs and Weaknesses have existed in RuneScape for a long time; we've had
potions from Herblore, and plenty of stuns and binds from Magic abilities.
However, with the addition of a wide variety of new abilities there are plenty
more that you'll want to keep an eye on. The Evolution of Combat will see a new
interface showing buffs and weaknesses not only on yourself, but also for your
current target or foe. With so many effects - such as damage-over-time,
temporary damage boosts, and many more - you're going to need it!
There'll also be changes to a whole host of RuneScape inhabitants to ensure that
when a creature is weak to fire damage or stronger against ranged attacks, for
example, it will have a more significant effect - particularly on your combat
style and equipment setup. To find out more about these exciting changes, head
over to the Combat HQ.
