OSRS Grid Master Melee Weapons Guide | Best Melee Weapons
Image Credit:
Grid Master makes melee combat ridiculous once your relics and perks start stacking. You’ll hit faster, tank more, and watch bosses melt before they even move.
Best Melee Weapons to Use
The three key melee weapons are the Thunder Khopesh, Sunlight Spear, and Scythe of Vitur. Each fills a different role depending on what task or boss you’re working on.
Thunder Khopesh has one of the strongest special attacks in the mode, letting you shred groups and skip entire boss mechanics.
Sunlight Spear rewards consistent hits with Sunlight Stacks that boost Sol Slam, an area attack scaling off prayer bonus. It’s great for clearing mobs and enemies resistant to melee.
Scythe of Vitur covers everything else, offering huge damage on high-health bosses and excellent crowd control once you unlock tier 6 combat masteries.
How to Unlock and Use Them
Thunder Khopesh
Earned early by completing key combat tiles or rushing the Yama fight. It pairs well with the Specialist relic for near-instant kills.
Sunlight Spear
Unlocks after finishing all column 6 tasks. Its Sol Slam doesn’t use special energy, only Sunlight Stacks, so you can spam it once fully charged. Teleporting resets stacks, so stay active in combat.
Scythe of Vitur
The most versatile weapon once you’ve progressed far enough for ToB unlocks. Its wide swing speed synergizes with relic boosts like Total Recall and Last Stand for high-risk runs.
Melee Setup Tips for Grid Master
Always activate tier 6 combat masteries before long grinds to get the full speed bonus.
Combine melee relics with healing gear like Sunlight Bracers or Blood spells for sustain.
Use melee on most bosses except those hard-coded for ranged scaling, like Vorkath.
When farming marks or diaries, Thunder Khopesh and Sunlight Spear rotations keep your clear times fast.
Final Blurb
Melee weapons in Grid Master hit harder than ever. Once you’ve unlocked the right relics and gear, Thunder Khopesh for burst, Sunlight Spear for AoE, and Scythe of Vitur for consistency make you unstoppable.

Yes, but it shines after tier 5 or 6 combat masteries due to attack speed boosts.
