Combat Achievements (commonly abbreviated as CA) are a set of combat-based tasks and challenges released on 21 July 2021. They are intended to test the player's prowess in combat related content, ranging from endurance challenges, killing monsters under a set time limit, and restriction based tasks in which players must kill a monster in a specific manner.
The overview interface for Combat Achievements can be accessed via the Character Summary tab. An overview of bosses can additionally be visited from the Combat Achievements interface.
There are some combat achievements that can be completed by free-to-play players, although in every tier most tasks are exclusive to members.
Tasks which check the player's boss kill count, as well as time-based tasks for The Gauntlet and Corrupted Gauntlet, are automatically completed if players have the achievements prior to the release of the Combat Achievements system.
Tiers
Combat Achievement tasks are split into six categories based on their difficulty: Easy, Medium, Hard, Elite, Master, and Grandmaster. Each tier contains a number of tasks rewarding points, with the point value per task increasing with each tier. Rewards can be obtained by achieving specific amounts of points from tasks of any tiers.
| Tier | # of tasks | Points per task | Points in tier | Points required for rewards | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Easy | 41 | 1 | 41 | 41 | |
| Medium | 60 | 2 | 120 | 161 | |
| Hard | 86 | 3 | 258 | 419 | |
| Elite | 164 | 4 | 656 | 1075 | |
| Master | 174 | 5 | 870 | 1945 | |
| Grandmaster | 121 | 6 | 726 | 2671 | |
| Total | 646 | 2671 | |||
Task types
Tasks are sorted into categories based on the requirements. Most tasks within Combat Achievements will rely on the player's ability to complete them alone, though there are tasks which require multiple players to complete, such as tasks for the Chambers of Xeric, Theatre of Blood, and The Nightmare. A small number of group boss tasks award completion whether or not the player is alone, such as Perfect Hueycoatl.
| Task type | Description |
|---|---|
| Kill count | Kill a monster a certain number of times. |
| Mechanical | Defeat a boss in a way that hints at how players are supposed to fight the boss, or tasks the player to kill the boss in a specific, difficult way |
| Perfection | Complete a task without taking damage or dying. |
| Restriction | Complete a task under a set of restrictions. |
| Speed | Kill a boss within a set timeframe. |
| Stamina | Kill a boss a certain amount of times without leaving the area. |
Rewards
Players may claim their rewards by speaking to Ghommal or Laidee Gnonock by the entrance to the Warriors' Guild, or from the Leagues Tutor in Leagues. Unlike Achievement Diaries, players do not need to complete all of the tasks of the previous tier before claiming a reward set for another tier; each reward tier requires having a certain amount of points before players can claim them. This means players can claim a tier's rewards through any combination of tasks, instead of having to complete a lower tier's tasks before being able to claim rewards from a higher tier. The exception to this is the Grandmaster tier reward, which requires completion of all currently available combat tasks.
During Leagues the player can claim their combat rewards from the Leagues Tutor.
Should new tasks be released, and the requirement for a previously-met tier increases above a player's point total, rewards for the appropriate tiers are disabled and become unequippable until the new point requirement is met. Higher-tiered versions of Ghommal's hilt can still be activated to teleport, though with the limitations matching the lower tier; for example, Ghommal's hilt 3 can be used to teleport only 5 times per day to the God Wars Dungeon entrance when you have points matching the Medium tier.
| Reward tier | Required points | Rewards | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Easy | 41 |
| |
| Medium | 161 |
| |
| Hard | 419 |

| Elite | 1075 |

Trivia
- An off-hand blade was proposed to be added as a reward for completing each tier of the Combat Achievements, which provided increased melee attack bonuses and increased with each tier of tasks completed. The blade was polled in the Combat Achievements poll and failed to pass, only receiving 64.3% of the supporting votes. The item was later reworked as a teleport item, in the form of Ghommal's hilt. Later, the Grandmaster and Master hilts were updated to be able to be combined with the Avernic defender.
- Models were made for a slayer helmet design based on the Crystalline and Corrupted Hunllef, though it was never offered as a reward.
- Prior to the release of Combat Achievements, God Wars Dungeon access was only possible with partial completion of Troll Stronghold. Ghommal's Hilt now allows limited builds, such as an obby mauler with 1 Attack, to enter the God Wars Dungeon without having to accept the 3000 Attack experience reward from Death Plateau.[2]
- On release, a competition was held for the first players to complete each tier of Combat Achievements, with varying prizes. The winners were announced on 16 February 2022.[3]

- TzHaar-Ket-Rak's Challenges can be displayed as a player's top boss, but do not count towards the total boss count.
- As of 2nd of September 2025, 0.13% player had achieved Grandmaster, 0.59% achieved Master, and 2.01% achieved Elite tier out of all players who were in any combat achievement tier.[4]
