If I don't have time to play anymore, can't play anymore, get muted (maybe) or perma-banned (but since I start a new account almost every time I come back to RS maybe not). Luckily the last two don't have much chance of happening :). Oh, and if it became single-player or getting hacked and losing all my items (maybe), or if I'm not able to access my account (maybe).

You could, but gold ores sell for about the same price (maybe more?) as yews while only taking 41 Mining to use the Rune pickaxe (40 Mining also works but then you have to use Adamant pickaxe). Yew trees, however, take 60 Woodcutting. Your choice on whatever you want to do, though. :)

I did the Beginner and Easy ones now, but can't do the Intermediate because I can't do Dragon Slayer.

I really should complete the Lumbridge Achievement Diary, but haven't gotten around to. When I do, I'll update it.

I did note that you could mine silver at the guild, and I will post a map and the inventories you should have soon.

Well that is strange. This is basically what you are doing, except that you are crafting runes at the altar along the way, which should yield more profit for people with decent Runecrafting levels. Too bad they can't use them! :P Anyway, thanks Sinkhan. I usually get bored waiting for lobsters to appear in my inventory so compared to that, this is a little more exciting (to me). I added an introduction, but I can't exactly figure out what a better format would be.

I thought about doing that, but I just figured that you would still make a profit off of it in the long run and the experience you gained per run would get you to 22 eventually.

Fair enough, I'll time my next run to see the hourly stats.

Edited because flame post was apparently deleted :).

Updates worth taking note of: Guide written. Added hourly income rates. Added hourly experience rates. Added that you need 40 Crafting #-ocan't believe I forgot it! Added an introduction. Added map. Added inventory and equipment pictures.

Reserved just in case.

Welcome to F2P Moneymaking! Ever wanted to make money while also earning some experience in some of the less popular to train skills? Here is an efficient way to train Mining and Runecrafting (and a little Magic) while making some cash too! Levels needed: 41 Mining (40 Mining also works but goes much better with Rune Pickaxe) 37 Magic 40 Crafting (to get into the Crafting guild) Quests needed: Rune Mysteries Items needed: Rune pickaxe (Adamant pickaxe works too but is not efficient) Brown apron Air tiara Staff of water Law runes Rune essence Optional: Explorer's Ring to recharge run energy. Runecrafting levels in multiples of 11 (11, 22, 33, 44 and so on) to get more runes per essence. Air runecrafting gloves double your experience gained per rune essence crafted into air runes. For Members: Penance gloves, boots of lightness, and spotted/spottier capes can reduce your weight to save run energy. Higher Agility levels will help you regain run energy faster. 54 Runecrafting to make your own law runes. Steps: 1. Go to the Falador West Bank. 2. Withdraw all the items needed except for the rune essence. 3. Equip the staff of water, brown apron, and air tiara. Leave the law runes and rune pickaxe in your inventory, and turn Run on. 4. Withdraw 26 rune essence. 5. Run to the air crafting altar, south of Falador and craft your 26 rune essence into air runes. (Runecrafting experience.) 6. Run to the crafting guild and mine 25 gold. (Mining experience.) 7. Teleport to Falador using your Staff of water, Law runes, and the Air runes that you crafted. (Magic experience.) 8. Turn off Run (to save run energy) and walk to the Falador West Bank and bank your gold and remaining air runes. 9. Turn Run back on and repeat from step 4. 10. When you are out of rune essence or law runes, sell your gold ore and air runes and buy some more rune essence and law runes if you wish to repeat. This is the equipment I wear. These are the before and after inventories. *Note: Amulet is not necessary, but does not weigh you down. **Note: Amount of Air runes is from level 44 Runecrafting and after the teleport. Either silver or gold can be mined, this picture shows gold. Blue circle is teleport location, and blue line is teleport path. Gold is bank, white is air Runecrafting altar, brown is mining, and red is the path you should take. The rewards: Gold ore is about 500 gp each, so you make 12.5k per trip on gold ores! Air runes are about 15 gp each, depending on your level, you make 390 gp to 3.9k per trip on air runes! Gold ores give 65 mining exp per ore so you get 1,625 mining exp per trip! Air runes give 5 exp per ESSENCE crafted, so you get 130 runecrafting exp per trip, or 260 exp with Air runecrafting gloves! Falador teleports give 48 magic exp per teleport! Total reward per trip: 12,890-16,400 gp 1,625 Mining experience 130-260 Runecrafting experience 48 Magic experience It is worth mentioning that you will have to spend around 1.4k gp per trip on law runes and rune essence if you do not craft or mine your own. It took me about 8 minutes per trip at level 50 Mining, so that's about 7.5 trips per hour or about 97.5k per hour. Also remember that you do get valuable experience while using this method. You also get about 12.2k Mining experience per hour, 975 Runecrafting experience per hour (without Air runecrafting gloves), and 360 Magic experience per hour. ^I know, it's a horrible picture. *Note: Remember, you can use your Explorer's Ring (if you have it) to recharge your run energy! Also, to conserve run energy, do not wear any armor that would weigh you down! **Note: You can mine your own rune essence to make even more money and mining experience! For members, if you mine pure essence, sell it and buy rune essence to make the air runes. Members can also craft their own law runes to make even more money and runecrafting experience! (It is suggested that if you have the money, buy the rune essence because mining it is not efficient.) ***Note: The rocks respawn faster on a world with more people in it. Also, if there is too much competition for the gold, you can mine the silver. It will cut down profits, but speed up the experience. This is my first guide, so constructive criticism would be helpful! Thanks! :) Oh yeah, and please don't steal this guide without giving me credit because it took me hours to make! Thanks!

Merchanting rune (t) and (g) kites :| bought them at 200k (250 for gold) and sold at 300k (350 for gold). Stopped at 1m so I could buy full rune (t). This was on my first account before it was members.
