I know this may seem a bit outdated, but I just found out today. Before the grand exchange f2p's only way to train rc up was to either run the ess themselves (very slow), or to use w16 air company (costly). However, I have just discovered a new method that's not too slow or too costly: Air tiaras.

 

 

 

They give 25 exp each, compared to 5 exp if you crafted air runes. Air talismans are easily bought for 300 each on the grand exchange, all you have to do is put up your offer, and wait overnight. Tiaras are 55 gp each, and you can sell back the air tiaras that you make for around 280 each. That's only 75 gp loss for every 25 rc exp, which seems amazing to me.

 

 

 

You aren't limited to air tiaras, other tiaras work too, I'm not sure about the prices though. Also, keep in mind that air tiaras are more in demand than other ones, as people need them for w16 (whether it's for a runner or a crafter).

 

 

 

Btw, as mauranius pointed out to me, this method only works well for lower leveled rune crafters (under 66, maybe 55). After a while, this method becomes inferior compared to the w16 air company.

This has been said before....

This is nothing new.

 

 

 

More importantly, air talismans can be acquired infinitely by someone who has never done "rune mysteries" from the Duke of Lumbridge (drop, talk, acquire, drop again, pick up all when you have enough for a load)

Do you mean air talismans?

Great find 8-). However, it costs about 39 million gp to get 99 Runecrafting from level 1 by using this method :shock:.

:XD: lame :XD:

 

 

 

Crafting airs in w16 makes me money, why i want to loose it?? :P

Well as of right now, it loses me a bit of money (lvl 51 rc), so I'm using this method until I get a few more rc levels.

under 400 trips for me to get runecrafting plus ill only loose 750k

perhaps make clear it is for the use of the "lower" runecrafters ;) and it is not a bad idea, just be a bit more clear :mrgreen:

If you can get runners you can probably get 300K+ xp per hour with this method. So for the very rich. :P

wow... i really want to run around buying tiaras, then air talismans, then making trips to the air altar to bind them... dude, i only have so much time on my hands

You can buy them quite easily with the grand exchange...
