Barrows or Rune Crafting?

[Roberthree]

Quick question: Would barrows (With slayer dart and prayer) or runecrafting (Nats with the abyss) be better money?

Barrows, and the chance of getting an item gives you a lot more money if you can only single craft nats.

[Roberthree]

Even if I use prayer on all the brothers?

[purpieman2]

if you average an item every 10 trips. If you dont pray on torag or guthan and use the safespots if the melee brothers are in the crypt, you wiill make a lot more

Well there are pros and cons for both of them. It's impossible to say which one would be better money, since you can't predict what you'll be getting from Barrows. You could get an item every other load.. or you could get no items in 50 trips.. Runecrafting is a constant source of money, whereas Barrows is just guess work. On the other hand, Barrows is probably more enjoyable.

 

 

 

If you're looking for a steady income, I'd go with runecrafting. If you don't need x amount of gp in x amount of time, then go with Barrows.

With your fighting stats, runecrafting would be more profitable, you'd have to be be getting the more expensive items (veracs helm/brassy, guthans helm/spear, dharoks axe etc) to make more money with the barrows, since the money you make from a normal run (bloods, chaos and boltracks) will be eaten up by the cost of your pots.

in my experience rc is the best cash making. in well over 400 barrows runs of mine, i have had only 4 drops to my name, but i keep going at it anyways. also, this is unreliable as a steady source of income because of the fact that the drop rate is random. however, doing a combination of both is good. a nice break from rcing steadily could be some trips to barrows.

 

 

 

as a summary, i would rc then as a break, barrows then go back to it. youll have mills flowing out of your ears lol.
