[Lose No Hope]

Looking forward to seeing how this turns out. Will probably come back to rs with Ironman's release.

So you have to start a whole new character? No trading? It's all DIY?

Yep, that's right.  You can see more details in the first post.

So how would someone go about acquiring the massive amounts of coins needed for summoning and construction?

[Arceus]

Monster drops, Kingdom of Miscellania (?), smith and alch items or sell stuff to General Stores, etc. for starters.

[strilmus]

you will also gain an inordinate amount of coins just from thieving

I don't think MtK will earn you cash if you can't sell your resources on the GE, heh.

Generally you do it by alching stuff.  When I'm on my 07 diy account and I need quick cash I usually make about 1,000 maple longbows and alch them for 384k.  Alching battlestaves is also pretty popular.  If you get 80+ crafting with battlestaves you'll be swimming in cash.

I wasn't sure if it gave coins too, or anything easily alch/sellable to stores :P.

I ask because 46k granite lob pouches is like 190million in shards.

[Tim]

Answer: you dont! :twss:

 

You can still use other means like quest rewards to give you quick boosts etc, so don't forget those.

Is that including if you sell back the pouches?

No it's not I kind of forgot about that

[Jon Arcane]

Manage thy kingdom will be useful for making a nice bit of coinage if you collect flax and maple logs, will net you some exp in crafting and fletching then hi alch the bows for money until you can make magic longbows...it's my method of making cash in old school RS at least >_>

You can also alch the pouches and use the GP to buy more shards. Not sure if it is better or worse than trading them in but at least you get all that magic xp.

[Erakthebrave]

for construction you can cut a whole lot of  mahoganies/teaks and use the special logs to make planks for free

[Octarine]

Probably better to mtk the logs and still use gp. It isn't all that hard to come by anyway, and there are other bigger issues (Crafting) that will easily outlast construction or summoning worries.

Why is crafting such an issue?

Well what would you do for Crafting?  Craft hides from killing dragons?

[Saradomin_Mage]

Silver bars from Temple Trekking is pretty good according to Oddish.

I was thinking about this last night. If I were to do IM, I'd just do the kiln over and over again for the uncut onyx reward. They alch for 1m coins each.

Am I missing something, or would you need gems too?  And I'm not aware of a way to mass-produce those.  There are gem rocks but I thought those were fairly slow.
