ok my friends the biggest noob ive ever seen and he brags he has higher smithing than me... *i dont train that much* and im wondering how can i get my smithing from 45 to 50 fast? * will mine my own ores*

if you're F2P

 

 

 

mine 2200 iron and make iron plates or

 

 

 

mine 725 iron and 1450 coal and make steel

 

 

 

if you're P2P

 

 

 

you could try mining 706 gold ore and smelting it with the gaunlets

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

other ways without mining (faster to 50 smithing if you included the time mining, but need money to get started and no mining experience)

 

 

 

F2P

 

 

 

1. buying iron and coal and just smelting steel bars and sell. need enough money to buy 1k iron and 2k coal (400k-500k) and sell the bars for 600k. take about 6 hours for 3k steel bars + time buying and selling.

 

 

 

P2P (all are faster than just smelting steel bars)

 

 

 

1. buy iron ore or bars and make knives(middle speed and no or little money)

 

 

 

2. buy iron and coal or steel bars and make cannonballs(slowest but make alot of money)

 

 

 

3. buy gold ore and smeltng with gaunlets (fastest but lose money)

oh right.. im sorry im p2p but i havent completed the family crest thngy so i cant use gaunts *THANK U FOR UR POST THOUGH!!!* and im prolly gonna make like steel bars and make em into somehting... what should i make?? *im gonna smelt all of my bars before i smith so i can get the most xp outta it*

with 1k steel bars make either cannonballs or steel plates

 

 

 

if you make cannonballs and sell them you will end up with 600k - 800k but are slower than steel plates and you need to do a quest to get the mold. if you make steel plates and high alch them you'll end up with 240k.

 

 

 

I'm never been p2p so i cant tell you how much longer it will take to make cannonballs vs steelplates.

 

 

 

to go through 1k steel bars at the varrock anvil will take 1 hr to 1hr and 15 min.
