The Runescape Combat Triangle

As we all know, there are three combat classes in Runescape: Ranger, Mage and Melee. What some of us don't know is that each class has an advantage over one of the other classes and a disadvantage over the other.

Melee: The melee class has the advantage over the ranger class and a disadvantage against mages. Melee warriors easily pierce a ranger's leather armor and the warriors armor has great protection against arrows.

Magic: Mages have an advantage over melee and a disadvantage against rangers. Mages cloth armor allows them to run around the battlefield while casting spells and their spells easily go through normal armor and does great damage. On the other hand rangers arrows easily pierce a mages robes and is also long distance so mages loose there ranged advantage. Also leather armor is great protections against magic.

Rangers: Rangers have an advantage over mages and a disadvantage over melee warriors. Rangers arrows easily go threw a mages robes and there armor is great protection against a mages spells. Meanwhile ranger's arrows bounce off warriors armor and warrior's swords easily pierce leather.

Not all rangers use leather. Most of em use dragonhide, which offers great protection.
