i used to rc alot, got from 1 to 77 solo, and want to get some levels at zmi.

 

 

 

 

 

since the skyrocket of ess prices, what kind of profit, if any, am i looking at at level 77+ rc.

 

 

 

Cheers

well, people claim to make profit at zmi, they often say if you have over lvl 75+ runecrafting you make the best profit using the zmi then lower levels...i would suggest that you wear an explorer rings to help make extra elemental runes when you craft.

I like to think of the Dark Bow like a Rocket Propelled Grenade (RPG) - you get one shot and then you're screwed.

hmm....if i'm lucky i can get 800xp with 43 pure ess, so i would think you can get max of 1k exp for all ess in all pouches in one run

Not sure the ring works there, but if it does, wouldn't that make you lose money? Bigger chance of elemental runes= lesser chance of bllods, souls and deaths, chaos ect...

Well I didn't test the ring out: however at 88 runecrafting I make around 50k an hour.... Making mostly law/death runes! and using the lunar isle bank.. Using castle wars bank earns slightly more (1-2k an hour) however it's also a bigger fuss (you actually have to watch out you don't forget a duelling ring).

First they came to fishing

and I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing

 

Then they came to the yews

and I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews

 

Then they came for the ores

and I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores

 

Then they came for me

and there was no one left to speak out for me.

I don't know if it works there either, but if it did, it certainly wouldn't lose money. It would have a chance of making one essence worth more elemental runes, assuming it was going to make an elemental rune anyway.

I'm pretty sure the Explorer's ring doesn't work at the ZMI altar. I did an hour or two of ZMI runecrafting not too long ago, and I don't remember seeing the chat message that my Explorer's ring gave me extra runes.

 

 

 

Besides, you're using 150gp pure essence and turning some of them into 15gp runes. Getting an extra 15gp worth of runes 5% of the time (or however much the ring works) wouldn't make much of a difference.

woops I was totally off with the profits at zmi: with the new rune prices (50k was around 5 months ago) it's about 24k an hour!
