lol ive had some terrible reviews, plz comment on how to improve more uular~ lol k wont be searching anymore old topics O_o_kay~alrite ill fix that bit, and ya got the pictures in, they're a bit small, any1 know how to blow em up a bit?

lol alrite sry, just wanted to see what old guides were like, and didnt think itd hurt to post, wasnt bumping, actually had some feedback relating to the topic, not just a "nice guide"

So this is my coal mining guide. This guide is for people who wish to sell coal for profit. Using my method takes fewer clicks, saves time, and also gets smith and mage xp along the way. Requirements: -43 mage(for superheat) -30 mining, guild reccomended -50 smithing(the minimum for mith smelting) ~~(items)~~ -"x" number of nats, "x" number of ur base ore ur smelting (mith and up) -best pickaxe possible -fire staff(wielded in weapon slot; an alternative is to wield the pickaxe and hold fire runes in your pack, staff just saves a bit of money) ~this should be your inventory, you can see I am wielding the fire staff~ -notice I leave 4 spaces(since I am doing mith) for coal so that I can superheat(for addy, leave 6 spaces and for rune, leave 8 spaces empty) if you do not have enough space, then you cannot get enough coal and cannot cast superheat Method: 1)With the above outfit and items, go to a coal mining spot. 2)Mine as much coal as you can(if you are doing mith bars, your inventory should have 4 spots empty for the 4 coal) 3)After you have mined that bare minimum to make the bar of your choice, cast superheat to make the bar of your choice. 4)Keep mining coal and smelting into bars until you are out of base ores to smelt. 5)Fill up your last bit of inventory with coal(just so you are not wasting space, you can sell this coal by itself later) and bank. 6)Just keep doing this until you have used up all your bars, then sell them. ~this should be your pre-banking inventory~ -as u can see i mined that 4 extra coal just so im not wasting space as i bank, i can sell this coal individually later Prices: -Mith Smelting- 1100(the price of bar) - 350(price of mith ore) - 300(nat cost) -coal sold at 113 ea -Addy Smelting- 2100(bar price) - 950(ore price) - 300(nat cost) -coal sold at 142 ea -Rune Smelting- 12500(bar price) - 11000(ore price) - 300(nat cost) -coal sold at 150 ea Although the coal is sold at extremely low prices, remember there is much less banking(mith bar smelting- 4 times less banking, addy- 6 times less banking, and rune- 8 times less banking, all for the same amount of coal); the fewer banking trips outweighs the profit made from mining and banking each load. The exact numbers are not here to prove this, testing and statistics are yet to come(pease feel free to test this out for me, I will be sure to have your name appear next to the times/money made portion, I just do not feel like mining coal for a while)~ This method will get mage and smith xp along the way, two skills that are rather difficult to lvl in f2p. Also, my prices are the average, you could quite easily sell the bars for higher and buy the ores for lower if you bothered to search a bit. Try and get a permanent buyer who will pay high for the bars; for the ores, just go to falador east bank and buy in small increments-as they will usually be sold cheaper. Doing this could significantly increase your profits. k thx for reading, plz post :thumbsup: -any suggestions, plz speak out, and plz tell me if u have any questions \ -if some1 knows how to get the pics bigger(they appear as icons on my screen) using imageshack, plz tell me ~Demon X Lord

lol i guess these methods would help a bit, but rc is just a crazy skill, ppl will be goin insane whether they like it or not :wall:

good guide, except i dont understand why we would have to use mith arrows at lessers, bronze work just as well and dont cost nearly as much

clear and easy to understand guide, not quite as helpful for higher lvls but can really help lower lvl ppl who dont know much about running and stuff

very well written guide, u covered just about all there is to high lvl mining besides rune(which isnt that important since few ppl would have reached that lvl) btw owange 87 mining

nice guide, as an extension u could include safespots on crandor, i think there are 2 safespots there

ya pretty good guide, one could get massive xp usin willows -just wish there were a place to get a full line of burning

a bit basic, but funny intro u should have more spots where ppl can train these skills efficiently, not just sayin "cut willows" or sumthin

minotaurs would work just as well, they drop iron arrows for u and the occasional cooked meat-which can heal the weaker player this method is overall a bit slow mainly cuz so much running for 1 kill, and they dont even have that much hits-the flesh crawlers*

umm i would suggest crafting airs all the way, then sell some of them to buy minds, because crafting minds is much slower than doin airs, just make sure u dont spend more money than u earned from selling that bit of airs

nice guide, lot of detail, could include a few more tips i think

well ive kinda already known these 3 methods, but it was interesting to find them written down so clearly, like i never thought to label them as "profit training" and so on but ya u summed it up pretty well, except for profit training, with giants, that can also go under mass training for higher lvls since they hardly ever get hit, so ya giants are really good to train on

not that its wrong, but i think u just made the guide as if u saw some1 doin it, u went into a bit too much detail for sum1 who u dont know at all, why would he bother telling u so much? so i think u just acted like u saw sum1 else doin it so u wont get flamed as much if it fails -once again, just kinda noticed taht, nuthin bad bout that iunno if u tested it then nice, but i cant see how u can hit 50+ when fire strikes hit 8 at the highest, seems rather difficult, but w.e ur the guide-writer and also u spelled intrigued as "entreaged"

ya this seems like an excellent alternative to powermining, i woul still prefer banking the ores though, a bit of extra time can earn me a significantly larger amount of cash

glad that u got in an f2p portion, but 55-99 hi alching wouldnt work well for ppl with nothing to high alch, i think u shud mention curse-failing, cheap and pretty fast xp for an f2p

nice guide but under f2p, id have to say fastest fishing method all the way to 99 is sitll fly-fishing, lobs and swordies take way too long to fish for their small amount of xp -although lobs are good for money

impressive 82 fishing, but some of the info is a bit basic, like i could probably find stuff about randoms on tip.it website but nice guide anyways

i relaly dont think this can be considered"easy"... mainly cuz it would take so long to walk to crandor rocks that u might as well do the guild, or even dwarven mines would be faster just because u think its easier cuz theres no1 there, doesnt mean it is, u could easily get more mith by going to guild even if there are like 3 other ppl there

this is the smithing tables on the tip.it site, all u did was divide the alch price by the number of bars needed, i could do that in my head..

nice guide

i thought u werent allowed to bumb ur own threads and ya i guess this would help

ya what he said
