Now that you have caught some fish it is time to cook them. This is done with the cooking skill. When you have opened the cooking window you will notice three columns.

Please note that you need logs gathered with the [[Woodcutting]] skill in order to light a cooking fire.

Offline progression allows your game to progress while closed for up to 12 hours. If the game is closed while performing an action eg. mining [[Copper Ore]], upon returning the game will calculate how long you were gone for and provide you with the XP, [[Table_of_Items|Items]], [[Mastery]] XP, and other various things that you would have received if the game was left running. When you open the game again a popup menu will provide a summary of what you earned while away. The skill that was being used will then continue progressing as normal. | |||

Combat skills are levelled by damaging enemies with weapons, and magic. To train a specific combat skill match your Attack Style icon with the relevant combat skill. Most combat skills have a passive effect even when the relevant style is not selected. Weapons, armour, and [[food]] can be equipped for use by selecting them in the [[Bank]]. Weapons and armour provide various bonuses and penalties to your combat stats, while [[food]] can be used for healing in combat. Upon death a random piece of [[Equipment]] worn will be lost forever, however unique items lost this way like [[Equipment#Capes|Skillcapes]] can be repurchased at the [[Shop]]. | Combat skills are levelled by damaging enemies with weapons, and magic.
