Pure ess VS woodcutting


Kinosjourney

Recommended Posts

Im currently power mining pure ess for cash since im saving for a Bandos Godsword but its so bad cash i make 60kish per hour and i wonder if its worth to get my wc up and try yews or magics?

 

 

 

I wonder what level i should get to cut yews or magics effectivelly, and yes; i do have a Dragon hatchet. (and if someone knows what gold per hour i get for yews or magics at that wc level.)

If your realistically saving up for bandos godsword, and your a long way there.

 

 

 

And assuming you want a decent way to make money without that much work or risk (aka combat) Then i would get 50 rc and play GOP.

 

 

 

As far as i know, its more profitable than woodcutting even at 99, and you can afk if you play 50 50.

 

 

 

GOP 50 50 gets like 150-200k an hour.

 

 

 

As far as i know, yews and mage trees get a max of about 150k an hour, and thats at 99.

O.O

wcing is pretty good if you're patient, its easy to afk and chat with friends. I did it for about a week? when saving for a whip, easy and relatively good money ( i was cutting magics from the moment i could)

Im currently mining 6-7k'ish ess per day which is really exhausting IMO and if yews is better money id get enough wc to cut em effectively since im considering laying down my 99 cooking goal and getting my BGS then getting 99 wc which i later will wc cash for 99 cook for trimming my wc cape.

The only reason i endorse wc is that i enjoyed the peacefullness, just got alot of time to browse forums and talk to friends, theres a clear noise when a tree falls down, so you get an idea of when to look back and check up. I'm in no way saying its good...or the best money, simply that its a very easy way to make reasonable money. Personally i'd just buy a D Scim (since im incredibly cheap), mainly because i wont have to worry about market fluctuation etc.

As I have said countless times before on other threads, Bandos Godsword is not worth saving for.

 

You'd be better off using the 18m elsewhere, unless you go to godwars with an RSOF team about everyother day.

 

Godswords are overrated. Really, really overrated.

With your stats, fishing might actually make you the most money...

 

 

 

I dont like fishing so much for money making, i fish only when i need some monks for training.

 

 

 

EDIT: Gratz dude, ur 1 post from 1337 post count. :thumbsup:

Dude, Godswords are awesome. I might grow tired of it but then ill just sell it back.

 

No, godswords are not that awsome. Sure they look cool and have high hits, but whip can out DPS them almost all the time.

 

And don't say you want it for bragging rights, because few people will admire a BGS.

 

 

 

Anyways, I might as well help since you are so adamant about this :roll:

 

Green dragons. Its been said a million times before, and will probably be said a million more times.

If you're getting 1k pure essence per hour, then you're getting faster cash than woodcutting. Yews at 99 are about 110k gp/hr. Magics would be a little faster than pure essence at 99 woodcutting--magic logs are 150k gp/hr. Still, woodcutting is a mediocre moneymaker at best, and I really can't recommend it no matter how high your woodcutting is.

I get 55-70k a hour atm with ess and since im gonna get 99 wc right after i afford an bgs i thought that money making on yews might be good since when i will reach enough cash for a BGS id have a nice start with 99 wc (since i will get lots of exp from cutting yews.).

 

 

 

I just wonder if yews is better than pure ess at 80ish wc.

How are you only managing 70k/h at pure essense?

 

 

 

I recently did a test using a character with 30 mining (the minimum for pure essense) without running, using the varrock east bank and made over 100k/h. With pouches, running, and even maybe summons, you should be making easy money.... Not as good as monkfish but still decent.

Obviously you're p2p, yet you're making f2p rates with decent skills. I suggest green dragons with your 80+ combat stats, even with using a protect melee and prayer pots, you should pull off around 300k an hour minimum.

 

 

 

Also, BGS isn't that great. The only thing worth noting is the accuracy. Otherwise it's slow, two-handed, and expensive. People always gasp at a dm fighting godswords, but the speed of the whip trumps the accuracy.

I dont like green drags...

 

 

 

Also a quick question. Ive heard saradomin sword is an amazing weapon to train with, is it true? i might buy it and use until i get enough for bgs. ALSO the SS are are rising in price (1m since i looked last time) so i might even make a profit, any ideas?

 

 

 

EDIT: urmmm, WTF? d2h is stronger than SS..

The SS is swung at the speed of an abyssal whip, and the two have the same stats. So the SS is basically a two-handed version of the whip; however, it has a crush setting useful for killing waterfiends, and it can train strength without using controlled. A whip and defender will beat a Sara Sword except for non-controlled strength training.

I refuse to do aviansies or green drags. they are boring.

 

 

 

Im currently wcing (yep) willows so i can get 80-85 wc then ill cut yews and magics for profit since pure ess are boring, bad cash and non-afkable. BTW, are there any good places to train strength and/or defence with a BGS? im thinking about getting 90 def and strength after i afford a bgs and achieves 99 wc.

Why don't you just WC for an hour and see how much you make?

 

 

 

You know already how much you make from mining essence.

 

 

 

You could always go to secondary profitable methods. There are about a million of them.

 

 

 

Farming.

 

Slayer.

 

Collecting Snape grass (or other secondary ingredients for herblore).

 

Herb drops from chaos druids.

 

etc

here's some numbers that I crunched a while back...

 

 

 

I used to make 135k per hour mining essence at 81 mining when pure ess were 140 ea. Do the math for prices today.

 

 

 

Since logs price have been stable since my last test :

 

I made 120K per hour cutting magics (22.5k xp per hour) at 92 WC

 

I made 110k per hour cutting yews (41k xp per hour) at 92 WC
