Make sure to keep your bank vault well stocked with equipment or gold in the game
One of the first things you might want to do is to arrange the interface to your liking, and maybe try out different video settings.
You bring up the GUI-mode by RIGHT-CLICKING your mouse. You close it again with Runescape Gold another RIGHT-CLICK.
In your backpack you will have three different starting weapons - a club, a sword and an axe. You equip one of them by either double clicking it or dragging it to the weapon slot of your paper-doll. You will always respawn with these three weapons. They can not be sold, destroyed or lost.
Everything else on your character will be left on your grave when you die, and can be looted by anyone. Always make sure to keep your bank vault well stocked with equipment or gold. You will never lose items in your bank vault.
To perform any attacks, you need to unsheathe your weapon. This is done by pressing R. Pressing R again will sheathe your weapon.
When your weapon is sheathed, you are in 1st person view. When your weapon is unsheathed (i.e. when you are in combat mode), your view changes to 3rd person view if you are holding a melee weapon, and stays in 1st person (but with hands and weapon visible) if you are using a ranged weapon, such as a bow or a magic staff to cast spells.
