Any items enemies drop upon death must be looted manually by selecting "Loot All" or the item itself, unless the {{ItemIcon|Amulet of Looting}} is equipped. If there are more than 100 stacks of loot, the oldest drop disappears. Bones stack and do not time out like other drops. Other drops do not stack even if they are of the same type.

[[Monsters]] fought in [[dungeons]] will not drop loot when killed and do not count towards {{Skill|Slayer}} Tasks. The God Dungeons are an exception to this rule: the shards are rewarded after each killed monster. When the last [[Monsters|monster]] in a [[dungeon]] is killed, the player will be given a [[Dungeons#Dungeon List|reward]] that is sent to the [[Bank]] automatically.

Receiving damage that would bring the player's total {{Skill|Hitpoints}} to 0 or below will cause the player to die. Upon death a random equipment slot is selected, any [[Equipment]] within the selected slot will be lost forever (unless the {{PrayerIcon|Protect Item}} prayer is active). If either ammunition or Summoning tablets are lost, the entire stack - regardless of size - will be forfeited. Only non-[[food]] items that have been equipped in an active slot can be lost upon death.

Stun, also known as freeze, is a status effect that can be inflicted by both players and [[monsters]]. Stun can be applied for a number of turns by a [[Special Attacks|special attack]] or a normal attack by the player if the {{ItemIcon|Fighter Amulet}} is equipped. When an attack applies stun the current attack of the target is interrupted, including special attacks that are in progress. If the target is already stunned, it will not be applied again. When stunned, a stun timer counts down with a period equivalent to the target's attack speed. On completion of the timer the number of stun turns is decreased by one, and the status is removed if the resulting amount is zero. In addition to not being able to attack while stunned, a character cannot evade any attacks.

While a player or monster is asleep, they take 20% more damage.

=== Accuracy Rating ===

Given these figures, the base max hit (i.e. max hit before modifiers) is then calculated as:

Where <math>M</math> varies based on the [[Game Mode]] being played, and is equal to:

When the player hits with a normal attack, the game calculates how much damage the player actually does by rolling a number between their minimum hit and maximum hit for the chosen combat style and then applying post-roll modifiers.

Some effects are applied after the damage roll is done. The main two are enemy Damage Reduction and [[Player Modifiers]] that affect damage to all monsters or to a subset of monsters such as Slayer Monsters or Boss Monsters. These modifiers can increase the player's damage beyond their listed maximum hit.

<math>\text{Damage Taken} = \left \lfloor \text{Base Damage} \times \left ( 1 - \frac{\text{Damage Reduction %}}{100} \right ) \right \rfloor</math>

==== Critical Hit ====

==== Damage Per Hit, Average Hit, and Damage Per Second ====

Damage Reduction is applied after this initial damage per hit is calculated, which means it is possible for a player to deal less than their minimum hit against a monster that has Damage Reduction.

<math>\text{Evasion Rating} = \left \lfloor \left ( \text{Effective Level} + 9 \right ) \times \left ( \text{Magic Defence Bonus} + 64 \right ) \times \left ( 1 + \frac{\text{Evasion Modifier}}{100} \right ) \right \rfloor</math>
