123_x_pac Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Depends on how many people are in your world, how long your on and how long you mine. I'd say at least two-three weeks maybe?

Duke_Kaleb Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Also, depends on how crowded the world is... the more people on the world, the faster the rocks respawn, which could definitely be a key advantage in your race to 99. And as a bonus...a lot of times on really crowded so called "dedicated" type servers, a lot of times you'll find normally active areas, surprisingly empty of other players. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inuashakent Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 You barely gain any xp or cash from mining coal... I could've sworn that Iron is faster for both. At least for members. I'm pretty sure this applies for F2P, but I'm not sure. [Summoning guide (AOW)] [Slayer guide] [Melee & Brawl player] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guywho Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 i am not mining for cash because as a f2p player there isn't really anything you can buy will loads of money besides i already have 35 mill in gp and more in items just mining the coal for later use in smithing guthan you say about 2-3 weeks till 99?

Lacoste Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 It depends, can you give an approximate time you play in one day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guywho Posted August 13, 2008 Author Share Posted August 13, 2008 yea ok, it's still summer for me so it about maybe 3-5 hours a day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
123_x_pac Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Do you have figures on how much you can mine during the time you play?

Duke_Kaleb Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 A good tool, I'm not going to provide links or anything, is Runescript. It can track your experience over a designated amount of time. Telling you exactly how much xp you gained in that given time, and your estimated time to level. Could be very useful to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgehog Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 According to my calculations it could take anywhere between 26 and 43 days depending on how long you play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yomyth105 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 looks at ur mining level (which is impressive =D> ) i say u just want 99 mining and u could care less about profits since u already can mine rune ore. so i would say that iron would be better. and it would take very long, but u might do it. as for me, i have no patience or time to get a 99.

geminiranger Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I would say for me when i mined coal. I mined 1-2k a day with it. so i would say if you can mine that much it would take you the 65-130 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max_miller20 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 At the mining guild just regular mining and banking I think the most you can get per hour is 300. so thats about 433 hours at that speed, or more realisticaly 520 hours at 250 coal per hour. 520 hours is about 21 days, so ya it will take 3 weeks if you never leave your computer, stop playing, or sleep. Asuming that you like most humans enjoy your sleep it will take you 130 days if you play for 3 hours a day. I think power mining iron is a better option though. Does it really matter whether I was right? #-oThis is Tipit. There is nothing more important than being right. Common sense is nothing more than a deposit of prejudices laid down in the mind before you reach eighteen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guywho Posted August 14, 2008 Author Share Posted August 14, 2008 thanks all i guess i will start doing a lil iron mining to then is fally the best place to mine and bank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilovecardj Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 What I would recommend is doing some power mining of iron. and if that gets to sickening, instead of banking coal, Buy a few thousand Mithril/addy ores and like 10k nats, then bring down heaps of ores to super heat while you mine the coal. Go with: Fire staff in hand Nats Rune Pick 26 Inv slots left: 20 addy ore / 22 Mith ore 6 open slots for coal. If you got 85 smithing in the process, you could even do it with rune ores instead of mining 28 coal then banking over and over, you can mine 20x6 +6 = 126 coal. which would be about 4 times less banking, and all that banking will be cutting into your mining time, slowing you down. you come up with 20 addy bars/22 mith bars and some coal to bank.

Ouchy Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 thanks all i guess i will start doing a lil iron mining to then is fally the best place to mine and bank? No, the Rimmington Mine is in fact the best spot for Power Iron Mining. Dwarven Mine is sluggish compared to it. My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity. Yes I get massages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seanthorn Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 thanks all i guess i will start doing a lil iron mining to then is fally the best place to mine and bank? No, the Rimmington Mine is in fact the best spot for Power Iron Mining. Dwarven Mine is sluggish compared to it. +1, either drop it after a few ores, or run to general store and tarde all ore in their. As no one buys it from their, you'll know roughly how many iron you've mined. Although you'll be losing alot ov money, don't worry about it, it'll pay of when you have that 99 cape woo :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
