Wo0tilici0us Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Good guide. When I was p2p on my main, I never noticed the flax in Gnome Stronghold. 9/10 So you're actually suggesting JaGex implements something into the game which for several years have been trying to stop?... :XD: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazel Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 A good spot to make flax into bowstring is the Fremmenik Island of Neitiznot. There is a spinning wheel a few clicks away from the bank there. SLAYERGEEK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nasgule1 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Hmm, Ive never really thought about picking at the Gnome Stronghold too much, always seems farther away to me, but I guess I've been thinking of the other bank. I've got about 2k flax to spin I spoze I could get some average times for the Neitzot wheel and the Lumbridge wheel while I'm at it.

splatmster24 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 i tried the flax at gnomes awhile ago but just couldnt get into it because its so spread out. maybe ill get back into it.

mario_sunny Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Excellent guide, you proved my wrong when I thought flax picking would only require a few paragraphs. I love the pictures and I love the information, it's always nice to see a guide like this. :) By popular demand, this signature is back- however I currently do not have a blog up at the moment and if I did I wouldn't update it. Sorry, the sig links to nowhere :( . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdb148 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 You should add a section noting that it's possible to cut wood, pick flax, fletch and string bows, and alch them all in Gnome Stronghold. Check out this cool browser gladiator game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 It seems that no one has metioned this...But, Lunar Isle? I know the flax is a bit of a distance shorter than Seers. And you can cut this down with the Lunar Isle teleport too. Have't actually tried it myself, but there is a fair amount there, and it is reletivley close to the bank. The only down side is the Squahs, which, are so slow, that they shouldn't be a problem, especially with Dragon Hide armour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a flax guide and the only part not mentioned is the wood and alching. That part is something people should just realize if they are ready for real fletching.

The only down side is the Squahs, which, are so slow, that they shouldn't be a problem, especially with Dragon Hide armour. Yeah, but along with a high(ish) level quest required, those Squahs are annoying and with the flax flowers not concentrated, that spot is ineffective. Plus, between the gliders and spirit trees, Grand Tree is very easy to get to. Cowards can't block Warriors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurtz1122334 Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 great guide i gotta do regicide sometime :P, anyways great guide 10/10. Im P2P 98% of rs players have attempted a scam.

yanksrule Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 heh like it and all just wish i found this thread earlier because i found all this junk out by myself lol..... it stinks you have to edit part of your guide because of the rs update with the bow stringing. as a fletcher i cant complain because my wrist is thanking me. ALSO ADDITION: lumby cast 2nd floor is a great place to spin flax into bowstrings. the bank is upstares and you can have run on the entire time and not run out of energy due to the commute to and from. you lose less than 20% of your energy and its all regained by the time it takes to spin the flax. theres barely any one at the elf place because you have to do regicide to go there : not really a bad thing you put that in the guide : Wow, watching this thread is better than pro wrestling! =D>This thread is probably better than pro wrestling because the fights here are real (And the boobs).

With everyone telling me about spinning and such, I may just add it it just to keep them quiet. =P But, the best place to spin is Neitznot, from the Fremmy Isles quest. In low detail you can get between bank and spinning wheel in 1 click, and the bank is a left-click chest bank. Cowards can't block Warriors.

Bard_Bow_Man Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Back in december-January 06 (or was it 05? I know it was the year that they put out scarfs and hats for aholiday rewards). I made 5mil from picking and selling flax in Lyeta. I had 2 choices of what to do with the money, full dharocks or a santa hat (yes they were that cheap back then). I decided to get full dharoks. :lol: OT: Its nice to see that the secret on this is finally out. My whole time picking flax, the only other people getting it were getting it for personal use, not profit. (Yes, despite the fact that my questing skills were great back then, in the money making department I was a newb) We tried using an abyssal whip to 'suggest' they work faster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see it either until several people told me it existed. Just walk a few steps away from the bank and you'll see it. =P Cowards can't block Warriors.

aaron32323 Posted August 11, 2007 Share Posted August 11, 2007 i dont know if this has been sugjested for your guide but if you can pick the flax in the elf city then after your done picking as much as you want to pick just go use the lumbrige spinning wheel :) glad to be a follower of guthix strength through balance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnome Stronghold is better for that too, and Neitznot (spelling?) is king town of spinning. Cowards can't block Warriors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackKingX Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Absolute fastest way: Pick flax in Lleyta. Spin flax in Lumbridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real ET Posted September 5, 2007 Author Share Posted September 5, 2007 Absolute fastest way: Pick flax in Lleyta. Spin flax in Lumbridge. Wrong. If I was a jerk I'd put a "fail" macro here. Lleyta is fastest for picking, but requires some hard quests to get to. If you read my guide you'd see that I mentioned Lleyta and the other places that everyone can use. Lumbridge is ungodly slow for spinning though. Neitznot (spelling?) is by far the fastest place to spin. In low detail it's one click to wheel and one click bank. Cowards can't block Warriors.

Rarex Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Nice guide ;) Gnome place seems like there is too much walking/running, even though it saves time.. its too much clicking.. :( Letvia seems perfect :o -Retired from Runescape on August 12, 2008-Working out topicEverything related to working out!

Sanitys_Requiem Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 I usually use Lumbridge upstairs bank for flax spinning. Seems sorta fast to me. Who knows, i haven't timed it. :-$ Jump_GP is a fail merch clan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows, i haven't timed it. :-$ Wrong, always use Neitznot flax spinning. I'd recommend doing that quest just for that little bonus there. :wink: Cowards can't block Warriors.
