Some weapons in RuneScape have special attacks available for them.
There are many types of special attacks, from temporary boosts in stats, to strikes dealing extra damage.
In the combat interfaces of these weapons you will notice a special
attack bar. If you click on the bar, then your character will initiate a
special attack and use up some of your special attack power.

Different special attacks use up different amounts of power. If you do
not have enough power for a special attack, then you can't do it. Your
special attack power will slowly restore over time.
Magic LongBow - Powershot

This attack uses the full power of the longbow so that you are guarenteed to hit your opponent.
|
Magic ShortBow - Snap-Shot
 |
This attack allows you to fire two rapid shots at your opponent, however the speed reduces your accuracy.

In a multiway combat area this attack bounces the projectile between several targets, dealing damage to each of them.

This attack protects you from harm by increasing your defence stat.

This attack consists of two quick strikes at your opponent, with slightly increased accuracy and damage.

This attack is much more powerful, but it also has a reduced chance to hit.
