Maximum hit is a term used to describe the highest amount of damage that can be inflicted in a single hitsplat. The maximum hit allowable is 32,000. Damage in RuneScape is stored as a short type integer, giving a maximum value of 32,767; however, round numbers are preferred, so the last 3 digits are always truncated. The highly acidic spider summoned by Araxxor is an example of a creature that can hit this limit. .
