I would suggest to buy a dragon axe, which you can resell once you have hit level 99 if you are worried about the expense. I would then recommend chopping and burning maple. By burning the maples you relieve the boredom of simply staring at the computer screen for long periods of time watching your character chop away. Of course, when I look you up on the highscores you are not in the top 2 million for wood cutting, so perhaps this advice is not particularly useful.

I would go train up your defense on some very easy monsters, such as goblins,cows or the barbarians in their hall, for a few levels so that you don't go through a ton of food when training. Then head to the stronghold of security and find the monsters you like to kill. Flesh eaters are great for experience, but I'd recommend finding the monsters that you like to kill the best. You'll probably gain more experience in the long run if you are enjoying the monsters you slay.

Prices also change at every game update, which most commonly seems to occur at 6 am EST, which I believe is around midnight Tuesday night in Australia.

Most people don't cannon dagganoths for the charms/treasure. Cannoning dagannoths is a very fast way to accomplish a slayer task.

You do not have to do the quest to cook monks. I would recommend swordies (or lobster) until at least 70. I was still burning monks occassionally at level 80. You might want to look into getting cooking guantlets if you are going to agressively pursue a 99 in cooking.

I have to agree with HyperionVox; I keep all herbs except guam, tarromin and marrentil which I clean and then drop. As well, I always pick up the water filled vials and put my high level herbs in them. This is particularly useful for ranaar, since the chaos druids sometimes drop snape grass, and you can make a prayer potion and thus only use up one inventory slot.

This is the help and advice column. I think this was in the right area. I never thought about people turning off their chat who were hoping to assist. Thanks for the advice.

You could buy iron bars, and buy/make rings of forging. Then forge iron bars. You could then sell for a good profit, or else smith iron knives or iron nails for less profit but considerably more experience. You could also buy steel bars and smelt cannonballs. Cannonballs are tediously slow, but you will make a profit. Another option would be to investigate all of the major runescape fan sites and see if anyone is having a Blast Furnace Party. Tip-It hosted a party a few months ago, and I smithed (and alched) 300 steel platebodies in just over an hour for some quality experience. As for herblore, I would recommend growing ranaars and irits for potions, spend some quality time slaying the chaos druids (banshees are good too for lower levels) for their drops and there is a bird (whose name I forget but guam is the secondary ingredient you use to make it) that drops lots of herbs. Hope this helps. There are several good herblore guides in the forums that you could read through as well that are full of helpful advice.

I'd recommend getting your maples from your kingdom. Its an easy way to get 500 or more maples a day, and the seeds and nests should at least allow you to break even or even still generate a profit from your kingdom. Unless you have an extremely high level of tolerance for doing the same thing over and over then I would recommend not letting your maples accumulate in your bank too much. Burn small batches constantly to avoid boredom. I find after burning 1000 or so logs that I've had enough. Don't forget about summoning pyre fiends or the new Quest rewards.

Your question is too vague for people to answer. Are you mining your ores, or are you running repeatedly from the bank to the air altar for all 45 levels. As for profit, that to depends on whether you are buying or mining your ores. The explorer ring gives you extra air runes, which would make your profit level achievable earlier. I would personally recommend you decide exactly how you are going to be training and ask again. As well, the air altar gives the fewest experience of any altar. Switching up to a higher altar will reduce your training time considerably. If you are determined to train solely at the air altar then you might want to look at getting gloves from FoG to increase your air runecrafting experience.

I don't see how Jagex could take offense. They created their new trade system where I can give 30k every 15 minutes to some stranger with a sob story who is begging for money. How to giving 3k to a non member whom I actually know be more offensive that giving away 30k to some stranger who just died. I don't think this is exploiting a loophole.

No where in Jagex's rules does the phrase "drop trading" occur. That being said, I have no doubt that if someone spent several hours continually dropping 3k in coinage for someone else that Jagex would take offense. I don't think there are many people out there that would want to spend their time doing that. Certainly a real world trader would not do it, for their profit in the real world would be pitiful. Jagex does state that it is acceptable for two accounts that share the same home address to trade with one another (rule 8 part 5 under multiple log-ins). After hearing people's opinions I am still convinced that gifting small amounts of cash to family or friends is still acceptable under Jagex's rules, within reasonable limits. (ALthough I am not encouraging anyone to do this in case I am mistaken). I can't see how giving 3k to a friend's new character would seriously undermine the game.

A question earlier today got locked when a player was asking about transfering his money to his brother. After reading through the Jagex rules twice I was confused. As long as I am on a seperate computer than my friend or family member what rule would I be breaking by repeatedly trading or dropping items-money under 3k in value. I realize this would be slow and tedious, but I think it is acceptable under Jagex's rules. Am I wrong, and if so could you tell me precisely which rule I would be violating. Thanks.

You can grow herbs, marigolds and vegetables and then sell them on the GE for profit. Planting trees will involve alot less work but will not be as profitable. The jade vine will also provide you with 1.5k farming experience (and 2.5K slayer) per day without costing you anything. I don't think 30k of experience per hour is going to be easy to achieve. I can go plant trees once a day and easily make 30k in an hour, and by using seeds from manage your kingdom greatly reduce my costs, but unfortunately not make a profit.

I've found that fish often are sold within minutes on the GE, both raw and cooked. It might not be as profitable as some skills, but you should have no problems selling your fish.

A tan cavalier hat looks good with a dressy outfit. Perhaps add a rune cane.

I have to agree that fly fishing is the fastest way. Look into your sommoning level. You might be able to get an ibis or granite lobster to help you get some extra fishing experience while you fish. Between 65-68 I would recommend switching to monks. You will level a little bit slower, but your profit will tremendously increase.

I've been going to Edgeville lately, in order to get my slayer points up fast. In the last 10 assignments from him I've gotten Dust Devils 4 times.

I agree with Stronghold of Security. I would recommend the Flesh Crawlers.

Your requirements eliminate most of the mid level characters, only drawing on the top 10-15% of players. I'm not particularly combat oriented, but I rank around 65000 overall, and do not reach your lofty requirements. The players who are high enough to meet your requirements will mostly have been playing for a longer time, and will mostly already have a good level of contacts/ friends who they can god war mission with. Perhaps try hosting a Bandos mission with no minimum requirements and see if you can attract a larger group.

I'd recommend doing the Fairy Tale Quest Part One as soon as possible if you're going to start farming, and most of all read the farming guide. It will help you out immensely. A week after beginning farming reread the guide. As well the magic seculars will really help out your experience in the long run. Tears of Guthix really helped me out. I had level 44 farming before I ever planted a seed. Just plant the best seeds available to you and make sure to have fun.

I'd do Sorceress's Garden at your level. Its not that difficult, safe and you get small amounts of farming experience as an added bonus.

I've had 2 clue scrolls, and they were both level one. My last one from my kingdom gave me a coif and 30 fire runes!

I think it should sell. I would recommend putting it on the GE at Maximum and leaving it there for a few days to see if it sells. You could come away with a conserable profit off of the trade with your friend.

If you can't figure out the amulet directions then I would recommend going to the Varrock anvil that is south of the GE. That is a very common Bob hangout, and if you flip between enough worlds you should be able to stumble across him. I would however recommend trying with the amulet directions a little longer.
