whew, hard work but i updated it, again for the 14th time!! i added Red Salamanders part cuz boy those guys are FAST!

"they did it in a week.... but chinchompas arnt the fastest way of training... i think red salamanders is faster... (and do you smoke the traps?)" i havent tried smoking any traps. do they taste like Kool milds or winston? lol j/k. I dont have any time to try. as soon as i set them, they get tripped but since you mentioned it, ill give it a try. and, red salamanders are quicker? ill give them a try and see. thx for the tip!

to get it in 4 days (playing 24 hours the entire time), thats 3.25 mil xp a day. thats 12,296 red chinchumpas which works out to 512 an hour (8 a minute) which is IMPOSSIBLE! either they cheated or someone made it up that someone did it in 4 days. easy nuff.

i guess your called nice guy for a reason! :D im going for it too and hope the gains pick up the higher i get. fun fun

2 weeks huh? lets try some math: i tried today to catch some red chinchumpas and i caught about 130 of them in an hour. so, at 265xp per you are getting 34,450xp an hour. xp at lvl 63: 368,599 xp at lvl 99: 13,034,431 minus them out and you'll need 12,665,832xp from 63 to 99. divide that by 34,450xp an hour and i came out with 15days and 8hours (rough estimate). so, he was almost right, 2weeks if you play 24/7 catching 130 an hour....

thx for all the positive feedbacks. they got me inspired so i updated all the pictures cleaning them up and making them bigger and hopefully easier to read. hope it helps.

nice guide but what city/location does this start? maybe a map of finding the gardens might help?

bop_dravian, awesome!! glad to help. dont stop now, you are hitting the fun parts and now u can chase me to 66!

i dont understand it at all, where does this thing start? what is the goal? what are the dangers? start from the beginning and go step by step.

sounds like fun but: Cerulean Twitch 65xp per bird Sapphire Glacialis 34xp per butterfly Ferret 115xp per so id hate to say, ferrets are quicker. i tried last nite some ferrets and i caught 68 in 30 min for 7,833.6xp birds are just as quick as ferrets to catch so i doubt you would have time to run around and catch butterflies before your bird traps are sprung. and i havent tried butterflies but can u fit more then one in a jar? can u dump them outta the jars and reuse it? if not, bank runs will cut in your xp gains.

i just came back from a runescape holiday (1 yr off), and when i came back, there were soo many new things. Fairy rings? Hunting? Slayer? I'm doing my best to "catch up" and if/when i learn them, ill be more then happy to add that to the mix. Its sure a lot of walking for hunting lol.

ahh that thing lol. it was a joke. i was just watching a car clip on youtube and it had a car that went from zero to fifty in one second. So, guess i had it on my mind when i made the title. silly me.....

yeah, I should have moved to ferrets at lvl 27 but i was in a groove and didnt wanna change. It was soo fast gains that it was FUN!

thx for comments. this is the first time posting on these boards so didnt know what dimensions to make the pictures. i went 250 width so now i know i can go alot bigger. and yeah, straight lines would look nicer. i just did quickly on photoshop. but, your part bout not fastest, yeah i missed one part: at lvl 1 all u can do is bird traps all way to lvl 15 so that part is correct. at 15 butterfly hunting is available but to chase one butterfly isnt very quick gains. soo its again birds up till lvl 23 when u can make deadfall traps. But, to chop a log and set up the trap didnt sound very fast to gain imho. So, once again its birds all the way to lvl 27 when u can use Box traps. Box traps are very quick so yeah, i should have moved from tropical wagtails to ferrets at lvl 27 but since i was gaining soooo fast. why move?

i finally decided to work on my Hunting skill, so I hit all the forums to see how its done. Found some useful information but no real guides on how to get it done FAST! so, here u go: first you hit to Yanille's hunting shop. Buy 3 bird traps and 3 box traps. Now follow this map south till you see some Crimson Swifts flying around (the big X). Set up one trap and step back bout 5 or so steps and wait till you catch a bird. Sometimes the bird will trip the snare but not get caught, so just reset it. It dont take many birds to reach lvl 10 at 34xp a bird. once you reach 10 head here: I just walked it ( i like to walk) but you can teleport to Ardougne. follow the map all way till you see the falcon fenced area on the west side. Your next prey are Copper longtails. Set your bird trap and wait again. heres where i set mine. it shows 2 traps cuz once you hit lvl 20, you can place a second! When you can place 2 traps, set them bout 6 spaces apart and put your guy on RUN! lol from lvls 10 to 19 you got time to cook the meat and bury the bones, but once you hit lvl 20 forget it. You will barely have times to bury the bones. The levels go by soo fast you have no time to rest! Now you should hit lvl 35 really fast(those 61xp each help) so its time for your next long walk. Yup, back to where you started from! now your target spot is the farthest south/west u can go. You will see a small area with some Tropical Wagtails buzzing by and some of those cute little chimichungas. Set your two traps right by the edge where the Wagtails fly back and forth and once again. You will have NO time to bury bones and dump the meat. Sorry i lost the shot of where i placed my traps but you cant miss them. Once again the lvls will fly past(an amazing 95xp a bird!). i got from lvl 1 to 36 in 8 hours. Once you hit lvl 45, its time for a small ... detour. Head north to Ardougne and do the Eagles peak quest. You're gonna need it for the next lvls. side note! for quicker gains, at lvl 27 do the quest! way faster gains doing ferrets at 27! wish i knew... After you finish the quest, come back to where you finished the quest (climb down the mountain part) and wow, what do u see? 8 ferrets all running around! This time you are gonna use those box traps. Since you hit lvl 40, you can place 3 traps so set them up like I did(all in a row).Don't bother placing bait cuz you dont need it! Hope your fingers are rested cuz this is gonna be fast xp gains. I was gaining soo fast i had to time it. Hard to believe but you get 115 xp each! And you catch them as fast as you can lay the traps out. lvl 47... 15 min lvl 48... 19 min lvl 49... 18 min lvl 50... 21 min lvl 51... 21 min!! i wish all skills gained this quickly. lvl 52... 31 min ( i had bad lag from 3 files downloading) lvl 53... 38 min (they taking long to finish *sigh*) And there you have it. lvls 0 to 50 in 12 hours (probably a lot less cuz I had lotsa distractions. Oh, and the best part? I checked on my highscores and for just 12 hours work, i ranked 57,696 on hunting!! for only half day of work? I dont think thats gonna last long once you guys read this *wink*. ill keep at them till I reach lvl 53, then its off to get some Chinchompa!! 198.5 xp each? omg thats amazing! ------------------------------------------------------------------ decided to continue updating as i go so..... Finally, lvl 53! good job! Now for some change of scenery. We can finally hunt/capture something neat, Chinchompas These little guys can help u gain ranged xp! kewl huh? just head north from ferrets just a short way and u are there. Only one big problem, there are only 4 of them to catch!! set your 3 traps where you see them running around, but place them 2 steps apart (helps when u have to reset them). Gains are way slower then ferrets, so u might wanna stay with them for a few more levels. great thing about chinchompas, they stack!! no more full bags! Sad part, slow gains: lvl 54... 42 min (took only 72 of them) lvl 55... 52 min (took 112 eek) this is wayy to slow, so I decided to try something new, Falcons head just a bit north and enter the falcon pen. talk to Matthias: to get him to let u "borrow" a falcon, u have to take off your gloves and weapons then pay him 500gp. Once u got the cute bird head south to here: this is your Hot spot for your prey, Spotted Kebbits. There were 5 or 6 of them and the gains are way faster!! I got lucky and all my ranging training taught me how to target really quickly. Gains "flew" at me again *wink* with 104 xp a catch! lvl 56... 33 min! lvl 57... 34 min! now thats what im talking bout, fast fast gaining! I could have cut the time down tons if I didnt bury all the bones. *Goal reached*, now that I hit lvl 57, we can catch something a bit higher, Dark Kebbit. just walk to the east side of the pen and there they are. once again, there are only a few of them. I only see maybe 3 or 4 Dark Kebbits ,so ill see if gains slows down too much and i should stick with the Spotted kebbits if the 132 xp from the darks can't beat the quantity of the spotted. *i'm back* i tried the dark kebbits but there werent enough of them to gain off them by themselves, so i just used my brain (duh) and caught anything that moved! spotted and darks so it was pretty quick gains. got to 58 pretty easily. lvl 59 took bit longer cuz of lag, 50 min or so *sigh*. then i found out something fun, next day my wrist was so sore from all that clicking lol. So, its back to ferrets for me. less chasing them around, just settin traps. !! hit my goal of lvl 60 !! Now its time to try out 4 traps!! lvl 61 took less then hour! 4 traps works like a charm, but one big problem. when 1 got triggered, by the time i got it reset, 2 more were triggered! When i got them set, 3 more triggered. It was a neverending battle to keep them up! And when its time to dump all the ferrets outta my bags, all 4 were sprung.... its hard work! after two more hours: whew, another milestone done! Now for our last trip south. Head back here: there are 2 spawn spots with 2 red chinchumpas in each of them. Just set your traps and off you go. This is your spot all the way till lvl 99! You are looking at 47,795 of them to catch!! But, just think if you sell em all at 600gp each you'll make 28.6 mil gold! *side note again, there is another wayyy!! red salamanders These are found here: there are two spawn locations: These little guys are caught using nets. You get a rope and a small fishing net (bigs dont work) and lay them on the small trees you see. The ones with no branches. they arent too close together but if u got run on, it can be done. Set them and get ready to run! Alot! oh yeah, they dont stack! So u have to dump them. Either u catch one or the trap falls apart and you have to pick up your net and rope, FAST! I tried to do it and I accidentally clicked wrong spot and my guy took off running. By the time i got back(I didnt run that far) 2 of my traps decayed!! Another problem is on the north spawn, there are a bunch of monks running around so try not to attack them while clicking. i caught 23 in 10 minutes so that works out to 138 an hour. At 272 xp per!!that comes out to 37,536xp an hour!! Red chinchumpas came out to 34,450xp per hour. And i was using only 2 nets for them (my other 2 decayed) soo. if u want quicker gains, red salamanders. If u want something to sell to make up for all the time, red chinchumpas! WOOT!! got to my goal of 66! Now I can wear the spottier cape! errr or can I? ack, yeah I can wear them, but you have to be lvl 69 to catch the Dashing Kebbit to make it?!? Thats soo sneaky. Guess I got a new goal... did it! it didnt take too long. Its gettin quicker now at red's and i can catch 160 an hour now! thats 42,400xp an hour. not bad huh? and the great part? I can get my spottier cape!! quicky Chinchumpas tips! Since you're gonna be doing a lot lot of them, heres how I do mine so a bit quicker: Idea is to set them up east to west in a row. Then, when you're going to pick up a trap thats sprung, mouse over, then hit the walk here option. Once you're standing on the box, pick it up and reset it. You will auto walk one step to the west, right on your next box! Saves you tons of time. and one more little tidbit, when you're hunting, get ready for a lot of random events. just tonite i hunted for 1 hour and got 10 of them! good part, there were 2 genies.

why do u guys have to complain bout spelling/grammar all the time? i think he did an excellent job on this. It helped me get started on this confusing skill. Not everyone who plays this game has English for their first language and the fact that he tried to help us by making a guide deserves compliments not criticism imho!

if ebay did ban it , they did it not from the kindness of their hearts but from their wallets (or their customers wallets). Paypal has a rule to not honor sells of virtual items. which means theres no way to prove u got the item. when u buy something off ebay, the seller gets a return receipt or tracker to prove the item was received. how can u do that with virtual items? * i just checked and theres 436 runescape items for sale on ebay. me thinkest this was not true story....

how bout someone posting some screenies of the mage guild route to mining. just to add some more to this awesome guide.

kewl ill give it a try too. looks like fun!

if i remember correctly, at that lvl i started killing guards. great fast xp and u can use the fence or the rocks for a safe spot (by the east Varrock bank).

since he dont know your bank numbers, just when u log out, leave the char with nothing on him. no armor, no food nothing at all. your hacker will get bored fast. or maybe u get lucky and he will get some stuff for u? edit: oops, forgot to mention, u prob got a keylogger on your computer soo get a good anti virus and remove it. that way he cant keep getting your information. there are some good ones online that are free. just google it.

k heres my quicky newbie guide. first , get 1k gold, 2 needles and 100 thread (craft shop in al kharid). now go kill cows till u full inventory of leather. walk to the desert and go to tanner. make all the leathers into soft leather. then use your needle on the leather and make the highest thing u can. once u finished sewing them all, walk east to the general store and sell everything u made. walk north to the craft shop, buy 100 more thread. rinse, repeat till u get bored. from what i remembered, i never ran outta money, thread or needles. keep this up till u hit pretty darn high lvl crafting. another good tip, do this on f2p worlds cuz most of the newbies there leave the leather on the ground so u dont have to even kill a cow. kewl huh?

another good place is edgeville right above the bank. there is that small house with a bunch of men in it. kill them over and over (p2p is great cuz u get herbs). thats how i got to 49 prayer last nite.

its a lot faster. i was wc-ing with rune axe (im at 78) and a guy (wc 77) was with me using a dragon axe and he was blowing me away. he would bank run like 2:1 vs me. i want one now badly.....

id do in small bits not all one time. i read they check for lopsided trades and ban for that.
