Farming 60-70
Also don't forget the garden pie, in tersm of leveling. Its quick +3 boost is very useful when going after levels. In terms of power leveling, I've heard good things about that vinesweeper game. With tree seeds, the fruit trees are good, but the slow growing time is an issue. I've found low level seeds like acorns and willows to provide excellent xp for the money.

Dragon sq shield worth it?
The defender is worth it, when going after monsters of lower level then yourself, it really give your attacks a punch. Take the time, the drops and exp are worth it, even prior to charm drops. Now, if you are fighting an equal level or higher, a d-squire is the way to go. The main problem I have with the obby is that its price vs protection isn't worth it. It literally isn't much better then a rune kite.

Basic Kingdom Management
The key is to keep a bunch of money in--at least enough so they will be "buying" the max of 75k per day. Also keep your favor rating up. The ring/coal method is good for it; as is teak chopping. As to what you should allocate, check the prices of what they sell for on the Grex before you withdrawl. Maples are not as good as they once were, they 'buy' for 56 on the island, but last time I checked, sold for 44 each. Tree seeds used to be big money but unless you get maple seeds or higher, most tree seeds aren't worth it. Flax isn't as good as it was, fish are decent at the moment--but keep in mind everybody who uses MTK is also looking at fish. The key to MTK is to get out there and look at what the prices are in the Grex (for both raw materials and the finished products those RM can make) and decide from there. What the key is, is to remain flexable. Anything could become the "next biggest thing," and so fillingthat need is a good way to make money. Smithing to 69 will cause a huge [bleep]e in prices at least in the short term fo anything helping to level smith quickly.

17 January 2008 - Summoning and Grand Exchange Changes
Well not quite, There are and were gaps in the market for bulk buys of non-stackables. As I've mentioned before, the greatest promise in Grex isn't big ticket, but large bulk amounts of tricky to get things en-mass like limestone bricks, potatos, raw yak meat, and grapes. My one issue with the Grex, was that price controls didn't allow "runner markets" to spring up. There could be a decent payout to limestone runners, just like swamp tar running.

spider carcass
Of the two, this spot is better. With a dueling ring, banking is easy. Just make sure to have antipoison.

Can someone breakdown summoning leveling?
Okay so I get that you make a creature pouch with a pouch, shards, charm, and secondary, and that making pouches gives exp. I also get that you can turn a charged pouch into scrolls and you get 1 exp per 10 scrolls made. I though the way you leveled was that you made many many pouches which were basically useless, but gave levels. This recent post from the site talking about how valuable the pouches are has muddled it a bit for me. Do we just make one pouch and summon the creature a lot? Does having the creature fight give you exp? How do I level? One other question, someone mention that scrolls are sellable for 200 each in a shop. Which shop buys them, b/c the summoning and pet shops said "you can't sell this item" Is it the general store?

Forgot how to make monkey greegree...
So the smart thing to do would be to get as many blank tallys and bones as you can reasonably hold, then run the dungeon once to get them all at one time?

revbots in wildy fire giant's lair
Do the revs ever show up in the underground fire giants lair in wilderness? Also, how often do they end up in wildy agility. Is the wildy course now unuseable?

Raw Yak Meat exp
I've heard that raw yak gives more cooking exp then regular raw meat. Is this true, and if so how much more?

Talismans for rc leveling
Given the Grex, are there enough rc talismans out there to make binding them to tiaras a reasonable way of leveling runecrafting?
-
Oversaturation in smithing market
What iron/steel items are so oversold on the Grex that making them would be a waste of time? More generally, are iron/steel knives or darts not worth the effort of making them in terms of ease of sale and prices? For that matter, is there any market for silver x-bow bolts?

Dagannoths for slayer, waterbirth vs. lighthouse
I got assigned about 129 or so dags, now, everyone might suggest lighthouse cannon, but that isn't really an option for me. I've been doing them in the 1st room of waterbirth b/c it isn't multicombat and the dag there, don't seem to be the ones with a dual range/melee attack. I'll confess, its very slow there, but doable--if pricey in food. Someone mentioned that the lighthouse ones hit less and/or are easier. My concern is that lighthouse is multi combat. Is there a way to safesport or something so that the lighthouse dags, don't pile me? If you had a choice between the two which would you pick?

Horror from the Deep help
Don't feel bad, its a tough monster to fight, I beat it by the skin of my teeth as well. Best suggestion would be to pray on one form of its attack, and optimize your gear with the best def for the non-protected form.

Teak vs. willow for speed
So the problem for teaks as levelers isn't so much the speed of cutting, like for the maples; but the bottleneck of tree respawn time? Thanks!

One hitting ores, what levels?
Does anyone have a list of the various levels at which a player can one-hit mine an ore? I'm most interested in the level for one hitting gold.

Teak vs. willow for speed
How do teak trees compare to willows for speed in terms of wc, if one uses the ape atoll teleport / castle wars ring to teleport for banking?

Has Jagex Forced Prices up of Items that were Undervalued?
But lets not forget that, the longer a skill takes to level, the more money they make in monthly user fees. Grind = Profit for them

Is there any rc exp given for enchanting the new water tiaras from the latest quest with water runes?

Making 600k at Mid-lvl combat... How?
A most excellent guide, but one quick question. Why do you need nightshade? Also one other suggestion for combat cash, try swamp tar via cave slimes via the dorgshu rings. They drop 1-9 at a time, plus coins and hit very low on higher levels--though they can poison--Swamp tar stacks and sell for over 200 or so on Grex. 10 minutes of fighting can net you 100+ tars
