A player needs OSRSitems in order to carry out specific tasks in-game. Players can store these items either in their inventory or their bank. In addition, they can distinguish these items between their name and graphics. If a player is to drop an item, they have 60 seconds before it becomes visible to other players. Should they not retrieve the item within 120 seconds after being dropped, they will disappear, and they can not retrieve it. However, some items are not droppable and must be destroyed; these are known as untradable and these items simply vanish 180 seconds after they are dropped. The practice of destroying these items was introduced to avoid foul play, which is often associated with item drops. Players are additionally able to equip some items with armor, weapons, shields and tools.
