  1. I suggest mid level monsters in the SoS. For fast exp you want to be killing frequently spawning midlevel monsters. The SoS has crowded rooms filled with just that kind of monster. Since they're midlevel, they won't hurt you much (if at all) and since it's crowded you can attack another monster almost right away. So you won't need much food (if any at all). In short, the ideal training place for F2P. I think that a lot of players don't understand that we earn exp based on the hit that we do and not (directly) on the monsters level. So hitting a 3 on a goblin gives exactly the same exp as hitting a 3 on a Lesser Demon. Hope this helps
  2. Look here
  3. A complete Blue mage outfit is very, very cheap. Hat from Betty in Port Sarim for a few gp. Kill wizards in the wizard tower south of Draynor village for the top. Sometimes you can even find them for free laying around already from other kills. This is no F2P wizard bottom, but you can pretend and buy a blue skirt in the clothing store in Varrock if you want to complete the look. You should also get a magic amulet (enchanted sapphire amulet) from other players. Finally, you will probably want to get an elemental staff (or 4) from the staff shop in Varrock. That will allow you to save on the number of runes required to cast spells. Hope this helps
  4. Well, Edgeville is very close a bank so that a popular spot. But, because it's so close, there's a lot of competition. So, cutting there could be hard. So, you can use the "Show rare trees" ability of the official world map to flash the locations of all 21 Yew trees in the F2P world. (Overview, Key, Next Page, Rare Trees) For what purpose? For experience, never. Stick with willows. For money, well, Yews sell for more than willow. So, if you want the money now, start cutting as soon as you can. But, it will be slow at "lower levels". You can earn a bit of money "now" or power cut willows to be able to earn money faster, later. It's really depends on how fast and when you want the money. Better in what way? Yews will sell for more money but Willows will give faster experience. Look here for buyers. Hope this helps
  5. Say the magic phase that the gypsy woman tells you...
  6. You could look here and here for info. Hope this helps
  7. Well, option #1 would be slightly faster since you spend no time banking. I suggest you do option #1 or #2 just to break up the monotony. I fourth option would be to drop the logs as you cut until 99 WC and then buy willows from the store for 12 gp each for 99 FM. Wasteful of cash, but it would get you to 99 WC fastest. Also, you will need 161693 Willows for 99 WC but only 141737 Willows for 99 FM. So, you could just drop about 20000 Willows as you cut them and still reach your goals. Hope this helps

    6 altogether 2 in deep wildy 1 under the wildy lava maze 2 in Heroes guild basement 1 in ME2 mine Hope this helps Also, the respawn time of Runite ore is about 1386 - Players/3 seconds where Players is the number of players logged onto that world.

    Well, you have Failed Curses: always 29 magic exp, 0 HP exp, 1 Earth staff + 3 runes, manual cast, always 9.66 magic exp per rune used Fire Strike: average 19 magic exp, average 5.33 HP exp, 1 Fire staff + 3 runes, autocast, average 6.33 magic exp per rune used Earth Strike: average 15 magic exp, average 4 HP exp, 1 Earth staff + 2 runes, autocast, average 7.5 magic exp per rune used Hope this helps
  10. The OP appears to be a F2P player, so those monsters would not be available...
  11. IIRC, some of the monsters in the SoS will auto-attack you even if they are under the CombatLevel/2 limit. So yeah, you're right, it makes for easy training.
  12. Money is always in a tradeoff with speed. You have to decide how fast you want to do this. Then you can decide on how much time to spend mining, smelting, smithing, and hi-alching or selling. For example: Slow but makes lots of money -- mine ore, smelt, sell steel bars. or Slow but makes lots of money -- mine ore, smelt, make and sell cannonballs or Medium speed but makes lots of money -- mine ore, smelt, smith steel plate, hi-alch. or Faster but makes a little money -- buy ore, smelt ores, sell steel bars or canonballs or Faster but costs money -- buy steel bars, smith plate, hi-alch So, you can: -- mine or buy the ore -- smelt the bars or buy the bars -- sell bars or smith them into plate or balls It all depends on how money you want to earn or spend and how fast you want to earn smithing exp. Getting to 85 smithing is like getting level 55 smithing more than 19 times. You can also do the quest for the members goldsmithing gauntlets and then smelt gold to earn exp. Finally, getting hi level smithing is not as good as it once was. Rune armor is now the 3rd best in the game. Many members spend their time trying to get Dragon and/or Barows gear. Free players need rune but there is plenty available. You can buy your way to 99 for about 21 million gp. Hope this helps
  13. That's gonna slow you down a lot. You think of (drop) power mining as, "Give up earning money now, so I can earn even more money sooner rather than later" For F2P exp, Iron is best. Coal is good for money. So it all really depends on how fast you want the exp and how badly you want money now. For example, 1 runite ore is worth about 22 steel bars or about 34 "steel ores" Hope this helps
  14. He would have to stop for more food breaks if he went for the higher level monsters. With the lower level monsters he could fight for days without stopping for food. Since exp is earned based on the hit done and not, directly, on the monster's level, as long as he's hitting constanly, he's earning good exp. With the crowded SoS rooms, exp can be earned continously.
  15. It might take him awhile to get the 21310 magic longs that he would need though...

  17. It depends on what your goals are. If you want loot then the best training monster, lootwise, for a F2P player is a Lesser Demon. You could also try Ice and Moss giants. If you want fast exp, then I suggest lower level, frequently spawning monsters. Monsters in the Stronghold of Security are ideal for that. They spawn frequently in small rooms and some will even auto-attack. The idea is to be killing constantly, nonstop. Try the minotaurs. Hope this helps
  18. I got to 85 mining in F2P using the 3 iron rocks in the NW section of the Al-Kharid mine. I would mine 3 rocks, drop them, and then repeat. You will need to mine 69,016 rocks to reach your goal. Hope this helps
  19. You could do it with, at most, 49590 Curse spells Curses could cost you less than 1.5 million You can look here to see the high alch value of many items. Steel Plate and Yew longs are the most popular mostly because they are available. Hope this helps
  20. The Apothecary in Varrock will make you a 4 dose strength potion for 5 gp if you give him 2 easily gotten ingredients. Otherwise, look here to find potion makers. You could also visit the Fally and Varrock bank areas on worlds 1 and 2 for sellers. Hope this helps
  21. For training I normally use a Power ammy along with the 4 dose F2P Strength potion that you can have made for 5 gp. Give red spider eggs (ground spawn in Varrock sewers and under the Karamja volcano) and Limpwort root (drop from Hobgoblins and others) along with 5 gp to the apothecary in Varrock to get the potion. Hope this helps.
  22. For F2P, Stronghold of Security I dunno about P2P. If you gotta stop for food then you lower your efficiency. Oh, Hmm, efficient with drops... Mossies or Lessers then (for F2P) Monsters that are efficient training don't tend to have good drops. Likewise, monsters with good drops don't tend to be efficient to train on. Hope this helps
  23. There are 3 things to consider with swords 1) Strength (pictures by DroolMAN) So the Long sword is slighty stronger. 2) Speed (pictures from the Jagex Knowledge Base) Scimmy....... Long sword So the Scimmy is a bit faster. 3) Attack style The Scimmy has a good Slash attack while the Long has a good Stab and Slash attack. The attack style matters depending on what your enemy is wearing. For example, if you wear fighting an enemy wearing an Addy chainbody (picture by DroolMAN) you would probably want to attack him with a stab attack (Long) instead of a slash (Scimmy) attack since his Stab defense is so much weaker than his Slash defense. Keep in mind that Jagex states in the Behind the Scenes News update of 24-Nov-2003 So Jagex has tried to make all of the weapons "useful" I don't think that they managed to do that, but they did come close enough, otherwise, you wouldn't be asking the question ;) Many players fight with a scimmy in slash style because it's fast, has good strength, and is effective against most monsters. Hope this helps
  24. You must "finish him off" with the stake. You could also read over Tip It's quide to the quest. Hope this helps
  25. I suggest level 2 Stronghold of security for fast exp. Low level, auto attack monsters in a small room that respawn quickly. You won't need any food and you will be killing constantly. Higher level monsters offer better loot but are, generally, slower in terms of exp per minute spent fighting. Plus, you'll need food for them. I always liked doing the 2 Lessers on the top of Crandor Island. There are safe spots to the North and SE of their area. Pull them over to you with a Curse spell. That way, all of the arrows will be in the loot pile when it dies. Probably Airs on world 16. Otherwise, Bodies. Willows south of Rimmington if you don't want to bank them. You can drop them there or sell to the general store. There are plenty of willows along the coast all the way down to the church to the SE. Otherwise, south of Draynor if you want to bank them. I suggest just buying willow logs for 12 gp each from the general store in Lumbridge or Rimmington. There is plenty of space for a burn line just south of Rimmington. With your F2P stats, you already appear to be very knowledgable about good ways to earn exp. Hope this helps
