Feathers to 99 Fishing?

Featured Replies

Hey, I am thinking about going for 99 fishing by powerfishing. First, i want to know how many feathers that will take (starting at 65) and how much the feathers will cost (buying from a shop OR player)

 

 

 

Thanks in advance

I engineered this thread with precise variables that I know would cause lul-worthy flames.

179,785- Salmon

 

251,699- Trout

 

 

 

I'd say around 220K Feathers will do. They are 5-6ea from players try for 5gp each.

 

 

 

Best of Luck.

Thanks, how much do they cost at fishing shops? Does port Siram (spelling?) have an unlimited amount?

Yes the fishing shops have unlimited feathers. I can't remember the price though, is it 7gp each?

I just checked, it's 6 coins at the Port Sarim one.

Really is interesting about unlimited shops, is some diference in price buying 1m of items or 1k items?

Suggestion: You can use Anchor on Waterfiends - is cheap if to compare to GS & effective with crush attack & it hit like Whip.

Visit my exp track

With infinate stock they all cost the same, no matter how many you buy.

 

 

 

You can only buy 50k at a time tho.

 

 

 

I bought them from 70-99 and have gone with 200k. Used about 8k from 70-75. Can't be bothered to work out the maths for the rest. If I need more I will buy :)

Hey, I am thinking about going for 99 fishing by powerfishing.

 

Ok, fly fishing by the barbarian village should work.

 

 

 

First, i want to know how many feathers that will take (starting at 65)

 

Well, with fly fishng you get a mix of trout and salmon so if you averaged

 

50% of each then you would need about 210,000 feathers.

 

 

 

and how much the feathers will cost (buying from a shop

 

If you can buy them from the Port Sarim fish store for 6 gp each,

 

then that would cost you 1.26 million gp

 

 

 

OR player

 

No real reason to buy from others players now after this most recent store update.

 

 

 

Hope this helps

try fly fishing at shilo too. I think its closer to bank there, but you could just drop at barbarian village too

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

when you get to 70 fishing, you may want to switch to barbarian fly fishing. It's the fastest fishing exp in the game, and also gives str, agility, and cooking exp.

Shilo's best, it's actually faster to bank there than it is to drop your full load, and you get to keep the fish. I dunno how much they're worth, but with 210k of them, you'll have both 99 cooking and some good money. Last I heard, I think cooked were 20each for both of them, for some obscure reason. =D

This is my exact long term aim. You will gain a respectable 99 skill (fishing), a second 99 skill (cooking) and will still have fish left over to sell raw to nooby cooks. The cooked food can then be sold in bulk for yet more profit. As long as your selling your fish for more than 6ea (feather price) then you are going to make profit. Say I sell 100k cooked trouts for 10ea. Thats 1mil. Yet it only cost me 600k in feathers. Plus I got fishing and cooking XP.

 

 

 

Afterwards you can fish sharks for reasonable fast cash.

 

 

 

The only downside is it will take a while. 73-99 is roughly 12mil XP. At 50k per hour thats 240 hours of fishing. 10 days solidly fishing. :cry: Thats before you start thinking about the cooking.

Btw, if you cook what you catch with feathers,

 

then it will take about 143,300 to get to 99 Cooking.

 

 

 

Hope this helps

if your only looking for fishing xp,the best way would be barb outpost fishing..

 

 

 

just need 25 feathers, big rod (found under the dudes bed), and a knife

 

 

 

fish with the 25 feathers untill you have non left

 

 

 

cut the fish up with your knife, if you have enough roe and caviar drop the offcuts and fish agian

 

 

 

if your low on roe and caviar use the offcuts to fish for a full invo agian.

 

 

 

xp = around 30-55k xp an hour if you pay attetion

 

 

 

also u get a little Str,Agility,Cooking xp for catching/cutting the fish :)
