ZMI vs. Astrals

[Borschwicz]

Ok, I have never done ZMI RCing before, but I hear it is really good exp. I was wondering if ZMI would be faster exp than....going to the astral alter, crafting, moonclan tele back to bank, repeat?

 

 

 

And if ZMI is faster exp, could someone give me a rundown on how to do it in the fastest possible way?

[ultimatballr]

ZMI is the fastest RC exp in the game ATM. If I am not mistaken. I have heard upward of 75k exp/hour.

 

 

 

I don't know the method but I heard it is the fastest many many times.

[Borschwicz]

Ok, thats what I thought, I just dont know its done exactly yet. Thanks alot =)

With 63 rc, astrals don't make you much money and are slower xp.

 

At 82-91, astrals are still a bit slower than zmi, but the double-crafting allows you to make the most money for a runecrafter until you reach level 91.

~Double Cosmics make you more.~

 

 

 

~I haven't tried the ZMI altar, but i'm pretty sure it remains at about 25-30k Experience an hour.~

[cat666]

ZMI is only about 30k per hour.

 

 

 

Double cosmics is best for profit.

[Borschwicz]

Sorry it took so long to reply. I forgot about double cosmics, those are pretty good money/mage exp for me, but should I just abyss those? And I still want to know whats the best exp/hour I can get, because im mostly in it for exp at this point, not profits.

XP RATES:

 

Combo runes>Fast Free Nats>Fast Free Laws>ZMI>Fires> World 16 airs>Astrals>Abyss methods

 

 

 

Bolded methods lose a lot of money. Not quite sure of Astrals placement, but I know they do make a pretty sum at 82 for doubles. Basically the reverse for profit, excluding fires.

I know for a fact that World 16 airs is faster than Laws, which means it's probably faster than w36 Natures too.

Here's Zarfot's calculation;probably faster than many people's pace. According to him, Laws are 8k xp/hr faster than airs. Airs are faster than world 99 however.

I seriously do wonder how he could have got that much Xp through W66 Laws. The whole reason W16 Airs is faster is because you don't have to move a single square throughout your time there, while at W66 there are so many eager Law Crafters that almost no runners will ever trade you at the actual altar itself. Maybe a a year or two ago when there were less Law Crafters you could have been traded at the altar, but definatly not anymore..
