Melee armor

When training melee it is adviced to focus on getting as much melee strength and melee accuracy bonus as possible as this helps you get higher exp rates. Melee strength helps you hit higher and melee accuracy gives you a better chance of hitting the monster. Items such as Bulwark shield therefore help increase your experience gains alot.

Note: Jewelry and Toolbelt's do NOT require a defence level.
