Template:Beta Abilities are the replacement of special attacks after the Evolution of Combat. They are moves that allow players to deal extra damage, heal themselves, stun their opponents, among other effects. There are three classes of abilities, Basic, Threshold, and Ultimate. Basic abilities and normal automatic attacks build up the adrenaline bar while Threshold requires 50% and Ultimate drains 100% of the bar. They could be accessed at the Ability book which replaced the magic tab, or the action bar after dragging them to it.

The set effect of Barrows equipment or Void Knight equipment only affects normal, or automatic, attacks, but not damage dealt with abilities.
