Auto-retaliate in RuneScape 3 lets your character automatically fight back when attacked. Turning it on is simple and can make combat much easier in certain situations. Here's how to enable it:

1. Open the Combat Settings

• Look for the Action Bar at the bottom of your screen.

• Click on the Sword Icon (Combat Settings) located near the action bar.

2. Find the Auto-Retaliate Button

• In the Combat Settings menu, you’ll see an option for Auto-Retaliate.

• It looks like two crossed swords or a shield icon, depending on your interface layout.

3. Toggle Auto-Retaliate

• Click on the Auto-Retaliate icon to turn it On or Off:

  • When On: Your character will automatically attack any enemy that targets you.

  • When Off: Your character will not retaliate unless you manually choose to attack.

4. Confirm It's On

• Check the icon on your interface:

  • A highlighted or active icon means Auto-Retaliate is enabled.

  • If the icon looks dimmed or inactive, it’s turned off.

Adjust as Needed

• You can toggle Auto-Retaliate anytime during gameplay:

  • Turn On for general combat like slayer tasks or fighting multiple enemies/afk.

  • Turn Off for precision combat like bosses where timing your attacks is important.
