mining question

Featured Replies

Im currently on my way to getting 70 mining ( im 63 now ) and i was just wondering, since 60 mining i have been mining iron and have about 2k iron ore now, would it be quicker to mine coal?

 

 

 

So basically, which will get me to 70 faster, coal or iron?

Iron will get you there a lot quicker. Just drop the iron ore when you get a full inventory (power mine).

ok thank you

Iron is the fastest way to train mining...

 

excluding granite

 

 

 

 

 

reason is that iron is 1-hit mine

I'm lvl 60 mining now and i'm mining coal and sometimes mith in the mining guild i think thats pretty quick if u get there when theres less ppl in there. but i keep my ore and take it to the bank right next to it, i find it pretty quick

Iron is one-hit almost always, and coal takes quite a few hits to get the ore. despite the fact that coal does give you more xp, iron is still better.

Retired from runescape. I will be on every now and then though. :)

Iron for your level, as you get higher you really want to look into getting lunar magic and granite mining.

yeah iron is way faster, it respawns lightning fast and you can get it 1-hit. coal and above have longer respawn times and take longer to mine, but are worth more. if you don't care about keeping what you mine, iron all the way.

 

 

 

I personally plan on actually making stuff with what I mine. that way I can level 2 or more skills without having to spend ridiculous amounts of money. personal preference though :D
