These restrictions allow players to build unique accounts that are useful for specific tasks, or for maxing out offensive damage while keeping a super low level in PvP.
Different players have different goals in mind when it comes to their skilling and combat abilities. ..
Pures are builds that focus on pure damage. They can be found in the tanky and damage-focused classes, but they’re also popular in the healer role. A pure build is one that doesn’t have any other stats or abilities. This means that you need to focus on your damage output and making sure your skills are as powerful as possible. One reason to go for a pure build is because it gives you a lot of options when it comes to gearing up. You can choose to get more damage or survivability items, which will give you more options when it comes to how best to play the game.
What is a Combat Pure?
A combat pure account is one that is built specifically for PvP, with specific combat skills trained for effectiveness in a particular combat bracket.
There are many types of combat pure, but the most common are those with low defence levels and focus on leveling attack, strength, range, magic, and prayer.
An Obsidian pure (also known as an Obby Mauler) is a knock out weapon that only requires levels 60 strength and 1 attack to wield. These pures would have a level 1 attack, 1 defence, and level 60 or higher strength.
This is a way to keep their combat level low while still hitting for a lot of damage, so they can kill players of a similar combat level very quickly.
A 1-defence pure who might attempt to get very high strength and attack levels, while always maintaining one defence. ..
This allows the player to stay at a high combat level while still using some of the best weapons in the game.
What is a Skilling Pure?
A pure skill that ignores combat is almost always a level 3 account.
This type of player is more interested in skills that don’t involve combat, such as cooking or farming.
There are a lot of strong monsters in OSRS that can easily kill a level 3 player – as well as a ton of quests that basically become impossible to complete without combat.
Some early combat-related quests can be done with Rings of Recoil, but this is still quite a challenge to do!
Most skillers wear bows without any ammunition so that they can’t actually do any damage.
Their attack options are usually set to hidden to avoid accidental encounters.
