'''Rushing''' is a tactic that was used in [[Clan Wars]], [[PvP]] and other dangerous [[activities]]. Once rushers, players that utilise this tactic, enter a game of [[Clan Wars]], [[PvP]], or other dangerous [[player-killing]] activities, they wait on the safe side of the barrier until they find a suitable target. Then, when their target is just finishing a battle and is hurt, they sprint from the barrier up to the target and use their weapon to drastically reduce their health or kill them.

The most common rushing weapons are the [[dragon dagger]] (only if the rusher has high Attack and Strength levels and [[overloads]]), poisoned or not poisoned, [[Dragon claws]], [[Armadyl godsword]], [[granite maul]] or [[Vesta's longsword]], for [[melee]].

Rushing can be done with [[Ranged]] as well, being a form of inflicting high hits, using weapons like the [[hand cannon]] or the [[dark bow]]. The rushers then use the [[special attack]] only, and after the special is over, they run back to the safe barrier. Some players think this tactic is underhanded, but so many players utilise it that it has become almost commonplace in the arenas of [[Clan Wars]]. Most of the time, rushers will use a damaging magic spell to try lowering the target's [[life points]], then use 1 or 2 specials, if possible.

Sometimes, they can use [[Vengeance]], [[Plank Make]] or some [[emotes]], to make their character seem to [[run]] faster. In the [[Wilderness]], they mostly target players with low [[Defence]], high priced [[armour]] ([[Bandos armour|Bandos]], [[Dharok's set|Dharok's]], [[Verac's set|Verac's]] etc.) or players training skills (using [[brawling gloves]], [[High-level alchemy|alching]], etc.) Rushing usually works only when you have either high Strength or Attack. Most players consider it better to attack and then run away, as it lowers the opponent's health and makes them eat.

Rushing is disliked by player killers and is considered no-honour pking.

An example of rushing is using the dragon claws special attack while using the [[Turmoil]] [[prayer]] and [[Super strength]] to help hit higher and [[Super attack]] to increase the chance of hitting on the victim and not giving them a chance to even attack back.

If attempting rushing, please note that overloads and [[Extreme potions]] cannot be used in the wild.

===Inventory===
Generally, rushers use potions such as [[super strength]], [[super attack]], and [[super defence]] (or better) to boost their stats well above normal. For food, [[rocktail]] and [[shark]] are recommended for their high healing, though lower level players could also use more affordable [[lobster]] or [[monkfish]].

If planning to combo special attacks, players may bring secondary weapons, such as [[Korasi's sword]] or the [[dragon claws]].

===Prayer===
If using prayer, [[Turmoil]] helps the most, giving a large boost to damage. [[Piety]] is also a suitable choice for players without the 95 [[prayer]] requirement for Turmoil. Low level players can use the best strength and attack boosting prayer available to them.
