Strength Skill Guide

Introduction

Strength is a skill that determines a player's power when engaged in melee combat. Raising your Strength level will result in the possibility of dealing additional damage against opponents. A higher Strength level will raise your max hit. For this reason, a high Strength level is desired by PKers and PvMers alike.

Training Strength

The best method of training Strength is to use an aggressive attack style. Using an aggressive attack style players will allow you to receive more Strength XP than you would if using a controlled attack styles. Furthermore, it will also receive a marginal Strength bonus which will increase your chances of hitting higher.

Training Locations

Use the command ::train to get quick access to training teleports.

Rock Crab

The best place to start training any combat skill at a low level is at Rock Crabs.

Here you will find the Rock crabs that can be killed in order to start levelling up your combat stats. Start killing these until you feel you have a high enough strength level to move on to killing other monsters such as Hill Giants, in Edgeville Dungeon or Yaks on Neitiznot (South).

Bandits

For players with higher levels, the best place train would be at the Bandits Camp, located in the desert.

Here you will find a large amount of Bandits that will automatically attack anyone who is wearing Saradomin or Zamorak equipment, allowing for easy AFK experience.
