<nowiki>*</nowiki> Chaos Wastes is a combat zone balanced for group combat, allowing a maximum of two players in a party to fight alongside each other. Stats differ for one and two players.
+
Special combat areas include the [[Foraging]] zone [[Living Forest]], and the [[Mining]] zone [[Deep Pit]], where you may randomly encounter [[Spriggan|Spriggans]] or [[Greater Demon|Greater Demons]] respectively. Players may not run from these encounters, and failing results in a 15 minute lockout timer before they can access that zone again.

==Combat Experience==
 
==Combat Experience==
Players gain combat skill experience when dealing damage; 2 experience in the selected combat skill and 1 experience in Constitution per damage dealt. When fighting in a balanced stance, each skill gains 2/3 of an experience per point of damage. Fractions of experience are not shown but are kept so a balanced stance does not gain or lose experience through rounding.
