==Easy battle penalty (combat)==
In [[combat]] and activities which involve combat, such as [[detective|Crime Dens]], defeating a mob that is '''11 or more''' levels below the player's combat level will incur an experience penalty, known as the '''easy battle penalty,''' on the experience earned from completing the activity. This penalty increases with increasing level difference.

Line 88:
Currently the smallest observable penalty ingame occurs at a combat level difference of +11, giving a penalty of 1.38%, while the greatest observable penalty occurs when comparing a level 500 Watchperson with a level 39 Eyeless Zombie, at a level difference of +461, for which the player will obtain '''1xp''' out of the monster's 758 base experience, resulting in a '''99.87%''' penalty correct to two decimal places.▼
The theoretical maximum penalty, applied when a level 500 player fights a level 0 monster, according to this formula, is '''99.89%'''. However, due to the low base experience (205) of a level 0 monster, this value (0.23) is rounded up to 1xp, which is the minimum xp a player can earn after defeating a monster. This increases the actual penalty to '''99.5%''', despite its formulaic value being much lower.
