A Complete 1-99 Melee Combat Guide for Oldschool Runescape in 2021 [OSRS]
Ойындар
Hey guys, and welcome to my 1-99 melee combat guide. Melee combat is one of the most important skills to level up. Today I will be trying to simplify how combat works, as well as showing you a bunch of viable training methods.
Ranged Training Guide
• A Complete 1-99 Ranged...
Magic Training Guide
• A Complete 1-99 Magic ...
This guide will be structured a bit different than most of my other skill guides. There will be a heavier focus on gear progression and training locations, rather than specific routes. This guide is primarily a melee training guide, however I will touch on a slayer and bossing near the end.
0:00 - Important Information
0:44 - Basic's of Melee Combat
4:15 - Early Game Combat Training
7:35 - Early Game Gear Upgrades
9:57 - Nightmare Zone
14:38 - Time to Max Combat Stats
15:21 - Combat Styles Mechanics
17:04 - Slayer Route
18:17 - Late Game Gear Upgrades
19:25 - Bossing Route
Thanks for watching

Got max melee stats and still watched and loved your video. Good job 👍
I have 99 all melee and I still watched the whole video cause your vids are always satisfying 😌
Iv been playing since a teen and never understood how to level up more efficiently… this video is perfect
Been waiting for this for a long time. Thank you sir.
I've been trying to decide on a training method for melee so I can get raid ready. Your guides are always perfect! Keep up the great content.
Great guide. Will definitely keep this in my back pocket
Love the content, keep up the AMAZING work!
Nice one! Just what i needed for when group iron man is coming out. Going to check out the rest of the guides aswel since i forgot a lot of stuff already
one thing to note, even if early slayer is slower, you can grind out slayer points and have the slayer helm a bit earlier and get that bad boy imbued! potentially saves time in the long run if you plan on leveling mainly with slayer anyways, 'bis mage ranged and melee helm on task', and will help tank on tasks where you would normally be wearing dog shit on your head like earmuffs xD might not be the most 'efficient' but i liked killing the lower lvl monsters for early slayer and seeing areas/monsters i normally would never fight. there is also a cheese method of getting a ton of slayer points early to unlock the helm, even off task its as good as a rune helm, and it doesn't require any specific slayer level to wear granting you the benefits of the nose peg before lvl 60 slayer, kinda pog
I'm curious if there are more new players watching than there are old players just enjoying a well made video
Just came back to the game, 98 combat level just standing AFK farming sandcrabs at the moment as I wasn't sure where to start... think I might hit up slayer and potentially some bossing! thanks for this video :D
Cb level 113 here and still using the fighter torso. That one is definitely one of the best ones to get, since it has the same strength bonus as the bandos chestplate.
This was a great guide id recommend this to anyone getting into osrs or even a vet coming back into the game.
assuming new players are watching this as a guide, wouldnt it be useful to add the names of items on screen/name the gear so that the new players know what to search for? Searching for an image is rather difficult

Note that you should use Overload potions from NMZ to maximize exp and save money. You can also flick rapid heal on and off to reset your health regen to prevent you from going above 1hp. Overloads make it so you cant go below 51hp since they damage you for 50hp. This is much better if you have it open on another monitor but I would recommend his method with super combats if you are at work/can't check RS that often.
Great vid, as always!
I'm sure you knew this, but it's worth noting that it is possible to roll an attack "hit" but get a "0" damage roll. This makes strength also increase accuracy, particularly at lower levels. If you had 99 att/1 str, you would still hit 50% 0's on chickens (with no equipment/prayer) because even though you would roll a hit every time, you have equal chance of rolling 0 and 1 damage.

Hey, you forgot bandit camps with Guthans. I used to do that in 2008. When I was bored in class, I used to take out my ipod touch and use an application that mirrored my screen from my home computer. Never died and I only had to check in every 2 or 3 hours. Guthans used to put in the AFK work. Not sure if it does anymore, but it was easy to go from 70 to 99.

You used to be able to afk for hours at a time and nmz didn't exist then. Definitely a relic training method, but I'm sure it still works decent enough
Been challenging myself with a challenge inspired by your content and trying to use what I've been able to learn so far from your guides and making a series about it. - Also I wonder if I'll be able to use any of these combat strategies for my grind to cerb kc.
5:40 I’d actually reccomend going and knocking out Horror from the Deep, Filling an Unholy Book and/or Book of War and using that instead of the Rune Kiteshield. You get a bit of Strength XP from the quest as well as an amazingly useful and fully replaceable offhand that you’ll be using for a long time.

Crabclawcave is also a great place to find rockcrabs and not so many ppl. You can only go into the cave when you start the depths of despair quest(very easy)
Just started glad I watched this 🙌 lol
While its true you need the bone voyage quest to get to fossil island and start fighting ammonite crabs, there are other prerequisite quests to bone voyage. Including the dig site quest and gaining "kudos", (favor) from the varrock museum.
Wouldnt a brimstone ring not be a better option for the nightmare zone bit? Its quite a bit cheaper than a berzeker and has ranged/magic uses. Ofc till you (i) a berzerker ring Great video as always
The other 417 guides online weren't working at all but I think this is the one for me
Love your content, one thing to add though is that if this is going to be followed by new players, please suggest witches house before waterfall. "Easily completable" is not a lie, but getting smacked for a 10 by a fire giant on a fresh account isn't what I'd call hard nor easy, but certainly frustrating. Best route: Get 9 magic. Complete Witches house, Waterfall, Tree Gnome, Grand Tree, Fight Arena etc. Sand Crabs to base 70 stats. NMZ till 90's. Now you can actually do slayer or bossing somewhat efficiently. Slayer till 99's, or back to NMZ. Train strength before attack, before defence. Done. easy
Sarachnis Cudgel requires 65 attack, and is cheaper than Mace, while being more effective than Dragon Scimitar. It's a good In-between for training if you want to go that route.
The problem with bossing to train is that you usually already need to be 90+ to be effective

Sarachis Cudgel is a great weapon at 65 atk if you don't want to get a dscim. TBH I use it for strength training now and gargoyles.
I always have done attack first on chickens or something to 5 then rest to 5 then att to 10 and rest up. I then switch to str first and balance them all out so I get upgrades about the same.
Make a 1-99 range and magic guide as well!
I know this guide is old, but experiments in Morytaina is a good option if you don't mind clicking every now and again.

What is in the shield position for obsid set?
I wish I got the slayer helm first. It's really annoying to forget one of the items, bigger and badder's proc rate is really low, and I can fairy ring to most places instead of using the slayer ring. Maybe go bigger and badder if you're taking donations from your guild but I'm honestly afraid of the thing procing, it'll get me killed at my gear level.
Whatʼs your off-hand item you pair with the obby sword? It looks like it could be an Avernic defender but youʼre talking about relatively cheap gear here, not super expensive stuff, so Iʼm not sure.
what would you reccommened for str training weapons through slayer
I love the content, and even this video, but i'm gonna save everyone, and say, just do slayer.
In the lower levels, is it best to train all 3 at once? Attack first?
When you’re trying to get to 70 str and att just do the bone voyage quest to access ammonite crabs 😂 it’s worth it and you’ll be spending more time at the sand crabs then it does to complete the quest not to mention sand crabs suck and you basically have to move around a lot to kill more crabs, ammonites are slightly better xp depending on your stats/gear and are practically 100% afk

What client are you using for those 3D models
Using Viggora's Chainmace is much faster melee experience than all of these methods, just a bit costly and risky but not extremely. It stacks with Salve Amulet (e), so you can kill Ankous in the Wilderness for up to like 130k xp/h. I was getting 90k xp/h on my 85-Strength account in 1-Defence gear, without even using the Salve Amulet. You can also use it for Wilderness Slayer -- it stacks with Slayer Helm (but Slayer Helm does not stack with Salve Amulet).
If only it were this easy for free to play players. All those quests are members only except for the last one and it says I don’t have enough quest points. Guess I’ll just kill some goblins till lvl 40.

ah yes to get this item which gives u 1% dps increase just make sure you go on a wild goose chase for 50 hours and have 5+ extremely hard quests completed, and also spend 50m per hour
Pro tip for everyone download the remote chrome app and you can afk at work just check in every 20 minutes and easy 99s in a month or 2 on all 3
I'm only getting about 65-70k str xp/hr with oby at NMZ. 90 str, 80 attack. Shouldn't it be higher?
