MINING AND SMITHING

Featured Replies

where is the best place to buy iron ore? i always bought it at fally but i wonder where else is better

 

 

 

 

 

and wads the good thing about high smithing? like rune smithing

 

1 rune bar is 15k already and the products you make will take sometime to sell... can rune smithing earns you 100k gp per hour?

 

if so how?

 

 

 

thanks

at high levels they buy the ores (10k a pop) and buy the coal (175 gp ea) then they alch the item. for example - buy 3 rune ores 30k plus around 500 gp of coal. make three bars make rune legs and alch for 38k - 7.5k profit. they can easily get around 400k+ an hour. Buying iron? yes faly is best but i suggest mining ur own

^^ sounds logical..

 

but does the supply of rune ores always high?

 

and do they sell 10k ea?

 

is there any way to earn with less than 90 smithing?

I don't think rune ores ever came close to a price of 10k each. It's usually around 11.5k each. For high lvl smithing, you can buy addy bars and make addy arrows. You should be able to profit. Can't think of anymore good ways :wall:.

I still don't think there is any efficient way without too much loss. Buying steel bars and smithing into plates is one very fast way, but also extremely expensive. Otherwise, you have to use mining to help you. You can mine your own coal and buy iron ores. Make steel plates and alch. Or superheat mith ores and coal and make mith plates, then alch. These two methods aren't that fast. #-o

 

 

 

You can check official forums for rune ore and rune bar prices, i think ore is about 11.5k-12k and bar about 14k or so.

best iron place is south of fishing colony (swan song required)

 

 

 

also, there is really only 1 way to make money at high smithing. buy rune ores 10k, and then buy coal and make bars. then make kite sheilds and sell in f2p for 45k-50k ea. not sure "money per hour" though

probably. if you broght the ores for 12k ea and sold the bars for 3k ea it might be ok but the main problem is that their are'nt many rune miners so the demand for rune ores if much higher then the supply hence making legs/skirt/2h and alching is the only great way. 85 mining would make loads more money than a lvl 85 smith though

hmm... however.. you have to consider the factor how slow the rune rocks respawn and how most of the time it is mined.

 

is it rly worth it? being attacked is not the problem.

 

 

 

the cost of making ore to bar is 1700 to 1900 gp...

 

will there be a profit in this?

As a lv 90 smither here's my take on the situation:

 

 

 

as long as u buy iron for 100 ea shouldn't have much

 

trouble.

 

 

 

As for rune:

 

 

 

rune ores cost from 11k-11.5k ea

 

nats 300

 

coal 8 x 180 ea

 

 

 

therefore rune bars cost 12740 to 13240

 

smither general sell items at 15k per bar

 

therefore making 2260 per bar

 

 

 

ie: if u sold rune 2h for 45k you make 6780 profit.

 

hard to say how much u will make per hour because

 

it depends on how many buyers you get. In my opinion

 

it's better to sell full addy sets than rune sets because

 

there are more rune sellers than addy.

 

 

 

if you could mine rune ore then definitely you would be

 

making some nice cash but very few miners can actually

 

smith it. in my opinion you should at most lv 85 smithing.

 

 

 

I'll need about 8 million more xp for lv 99 smithing.

 

It will cost me 128 mill in steel bars to get it.

 

 

 

Supposedly the best economical way to lv up smithing

 

is to smith and hi alch mith plates (if you buy mith bars

 

at 1k ea.)

 

 

 

If you have any questions just pm me here.
