Archers are guards for Burthorpe Castle in Burthorpe, and are members of the Imperial Guard. They are all too busy to talk except for one, who is at the top of a ladder that is located in a locked room that is unlocked during the Death Plateau quest.

Due to their drops, it used to be profitable for lower levelled players to kill these, because of drops of green d'hide chaps and earth talismans, that are always dropping or gaining in price.
Troll Invasion
During Troll Invasion, one may lure trolls to the barricade. An archer there will shout "VOLLEY!" causing some other, unseen, archers to fire at the trolls in waves of arrows, until their health reaches approximately 20%. So far, recorded damage dealt by the volleys will vary anything between 0 and 666 (or up to 1592 against Cliff) ranged damage.
Trivia
- These archers used to be attackable, at a combat level of 42, but no longer are.
- One of the two archers by the Ambush Commander, the one without Australian accent, mentions once being stuck for a week before the removal of the old security system involving coloured cannonballs, which was removed with the Burthorpe graphical update. Before the update, however, another archer in the castle made the same remark, indicating that the two may be the same.
