On this page you will find all the different types of armour typically used by rangers in Runescape, along with information about each item.
Leather Armour
Leather Ranging Armour is made using the Crafting Skill using cow leather. Studded Leather Armour also requires the Smithing Skill to create the studs. There are many different types of range armour which have increasing range bonuses but require an increasing range level to wield. There are also different defence requirements for ranging body armour. Cow Leather Ranging Armour can be purchased from the armourer in Varrock, amongst other places.
