This article is about Combat Achievements in general. For a list of all Combat Achievements, see Combat Achievements/All tasks.

Combat Achievements (commonly abbreviated as CA) are a set of combat-based tasks and challenges released on 21 July 2021. They are intended to test the player's prowess in combat related content, ranging from endurance challenges, killing monsters under a set time limit, and restriction based tasks in which players must kill a monster in a specific manner.

The overview interface for Combat Achievements can be accessed via the Character Summary tab.

There are some combat achievements that can be completed by free-to-play players, although in every tier most tasks are exclusive to members.

Tasks which check the player's boss kill count, as well as time-based tasks for The Gauntlet and Corrupted Gauntlet, are automatically completed if players have the achievements prior to the release of the Combat Achievements system.

Tiers

The main interface for Combat Achievements.

Combat Achievement tasks are split into six categories based on their difficulty: Easy, Medium, Hard, Elite, Master, and Grandmaster. Each tier contains a number of tasks rewarding points, with the point value per task increasing with each tier. Rewards can be obtained by achieving specific amounts of points from tasks of any tiers.

Tier # of tasks Points per task Points in tier Points required for rewards
Easy 35 1 35 35
Medium 52 2 104 139
Hard 78 3 234 373
Elite 154 4 616 989
Master 158 5 790 1779
Grandmaster 111 6 666 2445
Total 588 2445

Task types

For a list including all tasks, see Combat Achievements/All tasks.
For a list of tasks sorted by boss, see Combat Achievements/Tasks by boss.
The tasks interface for Combat Achievements.

Tasks are sorted into categories based on the requirements. Most tasks within Combat Achievements will rely on the player's ability to complete them alone, though there are tasks which require multiple players to complete, such as tasks for the Chambers of Xeric, Theatre of Blood, and The Nightmare.

Task type Description
Kill count Kill a monster a certain number of times.
Mechanical Defeat a boss in a way that hints at how players are supposed to fight the boss, or tasks the player to kill the boss in a specific, difficult way
Perfection Complete a task without taking damage or dying.
Restriction Complete a task under a set of restrictions.
Speed Kill a boss within a set timeframe.
Stamina Kill a boss for a certain amount of times without leaving the area.

Rewards

The rewards interface for Combat Achievements.

Players may claim their rewards by speaking to Ghommal or Laidee Gnonock by the entrance to the Warriors' Guild. Unlike Achievement Diaries, players do not need to complete all of the tasks of the previous tier before claiming a reward set for another tier; each reward tier requires having a certain amount of points before players can claim them. This means players can claim a tier's rewards through any combination of tasks, instead of having to complete a lower tier's tasks before being able to claim rewards from a higher tier. The exception to this is the Grandmaster tier reward, which requires completion of all currently available combat tasks.

Should new tasks be released, and the requirement for a previously-met tier increases above a player's point total, rewards for the appropriate tiers are disabled and become unequippable until the new point requirement is met. Higher-tiered versions of Ghommal's hilt can still be activated to teleport, though with the limitations matching the lower tier; for example, Ghommal's hilt 3 can be used to teleport only 5 times per day to the God Wars Dungeon entrance when you have points matching the Medium tier.

Tier Total points required Rewards
Easy 35
Medium 139
Hard 373
Elite 989
Master 1779
Grandmaster 2445

Scrapped rewards

An off-hand blade was proposed to be added as a reward for completing each tier of the Combat Achievements, which provided increased melee attack bonuses and increased with each tier of tasks completed.

The blade was polled in the Combat Achievements poll and failed to pass, only receiving 64.3% of the supporting votes. The item was later reworked as a teleport item, in the form of Ghommal's hilt. Later, the Grandmaster and Master hilts were updated to be able to be combined with the Avernic defender.

Unreleased models for a Hunllef slayer helmet by Mod West.[1]

In addition, models were made for a slayer helmet design based on the Crystalline and Corrupted Hunllef, though it was never offered as a reward.

Tier Melee attack bonus Reclaim cost (coins) PvP death drop (coins)
Easy +15 5,000 3,750
Medium +20 10,000 7,500
Hard +25 20,000 15,000
Elite +30 30,000 22,500
Master +35 40,000 30,000
Grandmaster +40 50,000 37,500

Trivia

  • Prior to the release of Combat Achievements, God Wars Dungeon access was only possible with partial completion of Troll Stronghold. Ghommal's Hilt now allows limited builds, such as an obby mauler with 1 Attack, to enter the God Wars Dungeon without having to accept the 3000 Attack experience reward from Death Plateau.[2]
  • On release, a competition was held for the first players to complete each tier of Combat Achievements, with varying prizes. The winners were announced on 16 February 2022.[3]
Tier Winner Prize
Easy Ozzys One year of membership
Medium evonaabi
Hard igotnoolife
Elite Nosevesey One year of membership and
a King Black Dragon brick-building set
