Well, i'm going to be f2p for like 3-4 months. So i decided i'm going to get 99 at wc, fishing, cooking and firemaking. I'm very poor, so any1 can give me the best ways to reaching those goals?

I'm retired from Runescape due to my really bad connection, maybe coming back soon

These are the most efficient methods for F2P:

 

 

 

Woodcutting - Cutting willows at Draynor

 

Firemaking - Burning the willows you cut

 

Fishing - Fish lobs at Karamja and use the cabbage tele to bank at Draynor

 

Cooking - Cook the lobs you fished

Or you could cut yews & sell them/burn them

 

Fish Lobs/Tuna @ Karamja, then tele to draynor & cook them on the fires you burn.

Yews would get you 99 Firemaking faster, but it would also get you 99 Woodcutting a lot slower. If you decide to do yews, I would wait until about 90 WC.

Why 3-4 months?

I'd cut those willows south of the Port Sarim jail. There are several good long patches there for firemaking.

 

 

 

As for fishing and cooking, I would alternate between the earlier mentioned lobsters and fly fishing at Lumby or the Barbarian village. This should help relieve boredom. Fly fishing is faster than the lobs, so it would probably take longer before immense boredom sets in.

Forget the lobsters and do salmon/trout instead.

Dont be a little powertraining noob.

 

Firemaking is the only skill that should be powertrained since its all you can do.

 

 

 

With woodcutting, cut for money not xp. What the hell is the use of a 99 in F2P if you havent got money to show it.

 

 

 

Big nice pile of unsellable willow logs in your bank.

 

 

 

Imo I would cut yews and some willows on the side and sell the yews to buy more willows.

I dont need a siggy no moar.

Woodcutting- Cut Willows in rimmington and sell em in general shop.Becouse in draynor there is much ppls and its hard to gain exp over there.Don't cut yews its slow.

 

Firemaking- Get 3 million with gold ores and buy maples.Maples are very fast.And like 60-99 firemaking cost like 3millions.

 

Fishing- in barbarian village fish trouts and salmons.It's fastest way to get 99 fishing. =) And if u want u can take that fish too bank but this will make 2 times longer.

 

Cooking- Well, if you will take your trouts and salmons to bank so you can cook it.Or you can get like 6millions more gp and buy lobs or swordies...

 

 

 

And another thing, If you will do like Zierro sayd about fishing and firemaking.Beleave me you will get 99 fish and 99 fm long time.Becouse lobsters hard to catch.Im 82 fish and i cant stand it.And firemaking is very very boring even with maples.I Dont talk about willows at all..

Ignore powertraining.

 

It's useless.

 

 

 

Seriously, someone answer me what the use of powertraining a skill is?

 

Usually powertraining involves little or no money.

 

Skills are used to make money.

I dont need a siggy no moar.

I would rather have 99 mining than 3 99s in those skills. What you should do is mine coal and mithril ore in the mining guild and super head while you're down there. Mage + mining + smithing xp. You'll make a lot more than power training those three skills. You can either sell the bars or make mitl bodies and high alch those.

 

 

 

I think that's probably the most cost/xp efficient way of mining in F2P.

Satisfaction from getting a good level, just training the skill for the sake of training the skill without any particular goal.

I still dont see how thats any better than a pile of cash from, eg, yews instead of willows. :?

With 99 woodcutting from willows you can use the saved time to do something else earning more money than yews at 80 wc. :?

Lol, yeah but it's all about different ways of playing the game. I like to get skills up, even if it may cost me a fair bit. That's what i play for. You obviously play to get cash - thats what you find fun. Different perceptions my friend ;)

 

 

 

I agree with the post a few above, go for the mining option :P

Yes money can be used during the time leftover, I know, but I would rather get a huge amount of cash from my goal instead of a huge amount of cash AFTER my goal. That's me though.

I play for skillz. lol. :roll:

 

 

 

That's why i would preffer to use willows/maples.

 

 

 

But, i am going for 99 woodcutting with magics. ;) ;)

Thanks for the hints, they will surely help a lot. And about the mining, i'm working on the easier skills first. For mining i mine iron, i find it's easy xp and a little cash.

 

 

 

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: Thanks again guys. You rock.
