How to Complete Tutorial Island on RuneScape

Before embarking on dangerous quests in RuneScape, you must develop a character and master basic skills. On Tutorial Island, players visit several instructors who impart specialized wisdom and provide precious items. After completing the 20 minute tutorial, you can put your survival, combat, mining, cooking, financial management, and magic skills to the test in the RuneScape world.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

1. Create your character upon arrival to Tutorial Island. Build the character from the ground up, determining gender, skin tone, body shape, appearance of features and color and type of clothing. Click "Accept" when you've completed your character design.
2. Visit the RuneScape Guide first. He provides basic game information such as how to communicate with other non-player-characters, how to move your character and how to alter your camera angle.
3. Learn to catch fish, cook over fire, and chop down and burn trees. Brynna, the Survival Expert provides the tools necessary to complete these actions and the corresponding instruction. The net, axe and tinderbox you receive become part of your inventory.
4. Practice baking bread, learn to control your music and learn about running and energy levels during your visit with Master Chef Lev. The water and flour you receive from the chef can boost your health later in the game.
5. Talk to the Quest Guide about viewing your Quest journal pages and to get tips about specific quests. Next, visit the Mining Instructor for a hammer, pick axe and dagger and invaluable information about mining and forging metal ores.
6. See Vannaka, the Combat Instructor, to gain fighting skills and equipment, such as a shield and sword. Then, visit the bank and speak with the Financial Advisor about how to make money and use the bank in RuneScape.
7. Visit Brother Brace for lessons on how to use prayer in RuneScape and how to manage friends and ignore lists. For more supernatural instruction, talk to the Magic Instructor about casting spells and managing your spell list. After you practice using magic and receive runes, the Magic Instructor teleports you to Lumbridge Castle where RuneScape play begins.
