Players can equip [[weapon]]s and [[armor]] to make themselves stronger, and [[potion]]s to heal or buff themselves. Gaining combat levels will increase their max health, damage and deflect rating, allow them to use stronger equipment, and unlock stronger monster [[variant]]s with increased rewards.

Line 37:
Killing a monster rewards [[experience]], [[coin]]s, and a chance to drop equipment of variable [[rarity]] and randomized stats. The level of equipment dropped range between the level of the monster killed and the level of the monster immediately preceeding it in the same episode. Certain mobs throughout the game may also occasionally drop items used for other professions.
 
As the player progresses through combat professions, higher level [[variant|variants]] of mobs will be unlocked, and [[Knowledge|knowledge points]] may be spent to unlock passive monsters as AFK training methods.
 
Most monsters are neutral and their names are displayed in orange, but some monsters are aggressive, indicated by a red name. An exclamation mark (!) will appear over the head of an aggressive monster if it has aggroed onto you.
