Find your playstyle
Weapons and armour sets all play differently. Go for a high damage tank, a fast bleed build, or an all-round warrior, then mix them up until you land on a combo that feels like yours.
Different weapons have different abilities, High power charged swings, life steal moves that heal you, lunges forward, big overhead sweeps. These skills help to keep the combat more interesting
Skills that matter
Your skills level up naturally as you explore. They unlock new content and unique combat, and each one gives your character a buff while you adventure. However you like to play, you're always progressing.
Guilds and multiplayer
Team up with friends and take on the world together. Whether you're coordinating on a tough quest or just fishing side by side, Archaeius is better with company.
If you like the long-term progression of RuneScape with faster, more active combat, this is for you.
