aquariusman Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Anyone know how long it takes for you to swing your pickaxe? Also, I'm trying to get to level 70 mining and would like to know the fastest way for F2P, other than iron or if you have any better place to mine iron other than Al Karhid chasm. For some reason I think that rune essence might be good since it's continuous mining until you have a full inventory, one essence every 3 swings. Only problem with that would be the 72,000 essence I need to mine, resulting in at least 2580 trips and 216,000 swings. I'm looking at essence because it allows me to browse forums for a few seconds. Any help is appreciated. There's no such thing as regret. A regret means you are unhappy with the person you are now,and if you're unhappy with the person you are, you change yourself. Thatregret will no longer be a regret, because it will help to form the new,better you. So really, a regret isn't a regret. It's experience.

chris_0076 Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Ok. The best way to get up Mining for F2P is hands down mining and dropping Iron. By level 50 you can easily get iron in one hit. And by dropping if you focus on mining for an hour straight you can get 2000 iron mined and dropped, so 70,000 exp in one hour. The amount of ore it takes to get from 60 to 70 is 13,254 So by dropping you can get 70 from 60 in about 6.627 hours. Or you can go with you method and do 2580 trips of ess mining then it will take about 1:30 mins per load. So it will take you about 64.5 hour to get to 70 but you will be 2,450,000 GP richer. So with a difference of about 57.873 you make 2,450,000 more GP. So about 42334 GP per hour. So in all aspects Unless you make less than 42334 GP per hour then mining and dropping iron is your best option. *Tip: When dropping ore be sure to get a mining spot with 3 iron right next to each other. As soon as you mine them all drop them while waiting for the rocks to repawn as it is much faster. Hope this helps Trespasser's Will Be Shot, Survivors Will be Shot Again.....And bam!

antisgreat Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Mine iron in rimmington mines in a busy world, and get some nubs to iron run for you, if you get enough you dont need to drop the ore coz they are back quick enough to trade u em wen u get full packs no money but quickest way by far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquariusman Posted June 1, 2007 Author Share Posted June 1, 2007 Thanks for the advice. I think I might just try the rune essence, especially since i have a fairly decent RuneCrafting level.
