Monsters are enemies found in the Mines, the Skull Cavern, the Quarry Mine, the Mutant Bug Lair, the Volcano Dungeon, and, optionally, on the farm. Monsters can attack the player and damage their health. When killed, monsters have a chance of dropping monster loot and other items. Killing monsters increases the player's combat skill, except on the farm.

Monsters on The Farm

Optionally, monsters appear at night on the farm. When creating a new game, the advanced option "Spawn monsters on the farm" toggles monsters on or off for any farm map. The Wilderness Farm is the only farm map with monsters on by default. Offering a strange bun to the Dark Shrine of Night Terrors in the Witch's Hut toggles monsters on or off in-game.

Monsters on the farm scale with the player's combat level. At higher levels, more difficult monsters spawn and the Wilderness Golem is more difficult to kill.

Dangerous Monsters

Monsters in the Mines and the Skull Cavern are more dangerous during the Danger in the Deep and Skull Cavern Invasion quests, or while the Shrine of Challenge is toggled on.

Dangerous monsters have unique sprites and stats. With few exceptions, their health, damage, and sometimes defense are higher, and their speed identical, when compared to their non-dangerous counterparts. Killing dangerous monsters earns the player the same amount of combat experience points as most of their non-dangerous counterparts.

The Putrid Ghost, Skeleton Mage, and Shadow Sniper feature unique debuffs.
