stats:

 

mage-58

 

runecrafting-46

 

agility-32

 

crafting-52

 

mining-71

 

smithing-58

 

cooking-99

 

fishing-81

 

fm-70

 

woodcutting-72

 

 

 

any ideas on some quick cash..?

 

and if your going to suggest merchanting (which i dont mind doing) i would like to ask in advance what would be the best/quickest thing to merch with around 3.5mill??

 

 

 

any replies are appreciated.

WHAT!

runecraft 12k nats

 

 

 

it will take about 10 hours.. or 5 days if you play 2 hrs day or less then 1 if your rsw44(i <3 u man)

ok thanks

 

 

 

i read the nature runecrafting guide but what is the quickest or best way to craft them..

 

 

 

is merching better money than nature runecrafting?

WHAT!

there is another way:

 

 

 

you'll need to be able to craft water battlestaves (54 crafting, 56 magic)

 

 

 

crafting some nature runes beforehand would be VERY helpful

 

 

 

1.start by going to zaff's staff store in varrock and buying some battlestaves (7k each)

 

 

 

2.make some molten glass (equal to the amount of battlestaves you have) and make those into orbs

 

 

 

3.go to water obelisk island (through taverly dungeon) and enchant the orbs

 

 

 

4.attach them to the staves

 

 

 

5. use high alchemy on them, yields 9k each (last time i checked, you may want to follow up on this)

I would not suggest doing water battlestaves if you don't have 70 or 80+ agility.

 

 

 

Instead, do air or earth battlestaves.

you can't buy battlestaffs anymore :boohoo:

 

 

 

on topic:rcing nats is great money

Try merchanting.. you could even try a method I use.

 

 

 

Please take note of a couple things:

 

1- The examples I give are for barrows merching, but the tips are generally a rule of thumb, that you should follow all the time while merching.

 

2- The prices HAVE changed quite a bit since I stopped merching barrows.

 

3- Obviously since you only have 5m, you WON'T be buying guthans as its upward of about 6.6m-6.8m, last I saw. Thats if you choose to merchant and merchant barrows.

 

4- You CAN merchant other things such as ores, runes, bones and various other armors and weapons.

 

 

 

[hide=Here ya go, hope it helps. (Long Read)]

 

Make a post on the forums, Runescape Official Forums (of course), and post what you are buying and the amount of what you are buying in the title. NEVER post the price you are buying for in your title, especially if it is below the average price people buy for. It is the #1 way to get ignored. Then make you post with as much detail as you want, but try to keep it short as most people are trying to sell fast and have to short of an attention span to read your detailed and lengthy post.

 

 

 

Here is an example of what my posts looked like when I was merchin barrows(note I averaged over 4-5m a day[about 5-8 hours of play])

Now of course the prices now have changed drastically but this is just an example.

 

 

 

Some Not-so-Common rules: (you may or may not know this)

 

 

 

-->ALWAYS!!! Always Always Always(cant stress this enough) Always put the rules of your thread in the beginning and make them stand out or else your PM's will be those of the sort you do not want

 

 

 

-->ALWAYS!!! Always be polite when someone pm's you or posts on your thread. (A number of times I got a PM of people who offered to sell for more than what I was buying for and when I told them "Nty, Thanks for your interest and the offer though" they decided to sell for my price. Kindness works!) Always say "ty, much appreciated =)" after you accept a trade. Polite = respect and more ppl like you. Which means they won't be afraid to sell you more items another time.

 

 

 

-->I prefered to woodcut in Draynor while I merched. Its easy to lose track of time and not pay attention to the amount of items adding up in your bank, easy to tele to if you have to meet someone and easy for others to get to... Most merchanters stay in world 2 constantly selling the supply of what they have and buying if they see a deal. I prefer to get exp and buy all at once, then sell when I am down to 1m.

 

 

 

-->NEVER! Never be afraid to compromise with people, don't be afraid to go a 50-100k above the price you ask for (with barrows at least) as you are normally paying 2-300k under the norm price anyway.

 

 

 

--> Use other peoples threads as well as bumping your own from time to time. Now I am not saying advertise on threads of people buying/selling items about your thread. Just post on thread of people selling what you are buying and vice versa(when your selling what they are buying) This is how I made a majority of my purchases and sales.

 

 

 

-For example, if you see a post about someone selling something and you are buying. Simply post or PM them about it. Inform them you are willing to buy at your price (make sure to tell them what it is). The worse they can say is "No" or "No you dumb merch". Either way tell them "ok, thanks for your time" they are usually reluctant to hear this and say "ty" back to you.[/hide]

 

 

 

 

 

These are just a few things I learned, and I hope they help you.

 

 

 

Good luck in your merchanting if you so choose. :thumbsup:

 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

 

 

If you do NOT want to merchant, you could try getting your runecrafting to 75 (using the ZMI alter would be the fastest) Then do nats, deaths or cosmics using all 4 pouches. (Note: this is with super energies as well

 

 

 

The amount of money averaged is as follows:

 

Natures--> 477k per hour

 

Deaths---> 453k per hour

 

Cosmics-> 615k per hour

 

Laws-----> 431k per hour

Apparently, my signature was to big.

Money making on P2P?

 

 

 

Just.. inhale or something.

200.
