sean5500 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Hi I am sean (runescape name is sean a 5500) I am looking for things low-levels can do I have only just found most of these out myself but it needs to be done to help higher levels play the game. I am probably border of low-level - medium myself I am level 73-75 not sure. I know how it is difficult to make money. Members: 1. flax picking. - in camelot you can pick flax in the flax field (near a bank) and then store. You can sell them for about 100gp each (not much) or turn into bow string and sell for 178 each. - I remember about 3 years ago bow strings were about 1k each. oh well. I don't know many low-level money making ways on members. Non-Members: 1. You will need at least a few hundred gp and a hatchet (axe used to cut trees) go to varrock and take all your money out. exit through the east exit then take the path north. Chop down normal logs. go to the sawmill and get them turned into planks (costs 100 per log making 1 plank each) sell planks on grand exchange for 200 each. Effictively if you have time this doubles your money. The planks sell within the second you put them on because people need for construction. I found this out when I wanted to make chairs for my housre (im a bit of a noob with construction) 2. Mining - you will need a pickaxe. Pretty simple realy the prices of ores sky-rocketed for non-members during the grand exchange's creation. I quit the game for three years and when I get back falador is white ect. but I got the hang of the grand exchange and Bought a dragon long sword as my first iten on there. Basically members need to make stuff with copper so if you mine copper Im not sure the exact price but I think it is 77gp. You can mine it from level 1 so for new players this is a good deal a good place for this would be varrock. Basially the rich players can get itens very quiock over the grand exchange but not enough low-levels know about the possible ways of making money using it. 3. rune ess. the price fo rune ess is pretty much the same as before about 30-40 gp. This way you have cut out the middle man. Many people stood there buying for 20-30 each but in the g.e. I think it is about 37gp each. It is cheeper for me to buy because merchants would sell 40 each. all you need to do is complete rune mysteries quest and go to varrock east bank. 4. When killing most things they will drop any type of bones. Usually normal bones. Instead of burrying you could take them back to the bank and sell for 90gp each. I am guessing these would sell pretty quicklyand make you a nice proffit. You would also be able to train strength ect. level 2 men in varrock could be useful as they only have 7 hp and they're right by a bank. as you go to bigger levels Im sure you can look around for bigger monsters. If you fancy taking on bigger monsters big bones are 414 gp to sell so you should be making a good proffit there too. 5. Raw fish - raw fish sell for alot more than cooked fish. I personally tried this for a bit. I went to catherby and fished swordfish. I managed to fish approximately 100 and sold for 470 each. At the moment they are now 461 gp each and the cooked ones are under 400. Many members use swordfish to get there cooking level up. I would have personally burnt some so it made a nice proffit. but at lower level fishiong you can still make decent proffits. Start at draynor village and when you can fish trout or salmon (river fish) go to the river lum in barbarians ville and bank your fish at edgeville. 6. If you get uncut gems don't think you would get more money by cutting them. It is the other way round. Just sell your uncut gems as they are. I they are used in members for all sorts of things. I personally use emeralds for my ring of dueling so I can teleport to castle wars. 7. logs will get you alot of money. But normal logs can sell for a bit as they are used to make arrow shafts which then become arrows. They will sell for approximatley 30-40 gp. (actually 27gp I suppose that was a bad estimate best bet is to turn them into planks) oak and willow logs are even less money. this is about all I can think off. Please post if you have any other suggestions. realize there will be alot of typing errors. I will go over them tommorow but I not in the mood for typing long stuff so I will edit it all tommrow. sorry for it being a bit messy. thanks for reading and I would appreciate feedback (good and bad) please don't flame me its my first post. -sean ps. Im a bit of a noob on these forums :roll: the numbers by the idead dont suggest how good the idea is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunker_Boy Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Are you asking for ideas on making money? Or are you making this for people who are interested in making money? And if you're asking for ways to make money, are you a member or nonmember, as you have techniques from both P2P and F2P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sean5500 Posted June 23, 2008 Author Share Posted June 23, 2008 well I was making this in the hope that people could put suggestions down too so I could maybe get a few ideas. I am a member, yes. I thought if other people suggest then I can add-onto this. Then everyone can view even people who don't have a forum acount. I have 100k at the moment. I had 1 mil when I quit last time which was a decent amount at the time but I just spent on getting new weps and getting my fletching up as it was still on 1. I'm looking for quick ways to make money. you can tell im a noob to this forum. Its very active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sean5500 Posted June 23, 2008 Author Share Posted June 23, 2008 yes thats what I am asking for. Better ways. This is basically for low-level players to help them but I need something for mediam-low level players. I am not a good player. I have 64 runecrafting if that would help?

ContourDeto Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 I messed up the quote :oops: but ill just copy/paste Non-Members: 1.

Goonstalf Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 Z0mg put this in AOW right now Welcome to the forums :) Unspammification: For nonmems, tanning cowhides into hard leather makes a profit, thought it is a bit slow and mind numbing. Also for nonmems, buying/mining clay then making soft clay and selling for a profit. NOTE: hides and clay can be done by any levels, so for all the pures out there :thumbsup: I'm going to milk Goon's teats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troacctid Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 yes thats what I am asking for. Better ways. This is basically for low-level players to help them but I need something for mediam-low level players. I am not a good player. I have 64 runecrafting if that would help? And you're talking about flax. #-o Craft cosmic runes in the abyss for like 300k gp/hr. Then at 65, do Mourning's Ends Part 2 and craft deaths for even more.

avalanche Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 how do you change them to bow strings? You use the flax on a spinning wheel, and pick the bowstring option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
