Well, I recently lost membership and won't be able to get it back for a few weeks. My bank is cleaned and ready, I can bank, so that's good. I want to keep raising Smithing while i'm f2p, but I don't really know what to do. I have around 1m I can use to start off. Any ideas? I'm currently 80 Smithing.

Superheat mith into mith bars

Should i mine any of the ore, or buy it all?

I would prefer to do a large amount at a time, not mine and superheat. I don't know how you wanna do it, but you would be better off buying the mith.

Thanks, I'll be looking into this.

Hmm, I just did 250 Superheats; it isn't really my thing, but if all else fails I can do it. Thanks for the idea. Does anyone else have any suggestions?

Your only option without losing a ton of cash is smelting until 88. Once you get to 88, it's possible to mine only a small amount of the ore you need to make addy bars, buy the rest, and then smelt & smith into plates, and still break even.

 

 

 

The best metal to smelt f2p is actually silver - you'll lose a bit of cash, but since you can smelt 28 ores per trip, it ends up being faster (and requires far less attention) than smelting anything else. Buying the ore and selling the bars could be a challenge, although you frequently see f2pers mining it, so it's worth a shot.

Mith bodies until 88 then do addy bodies

With 1m cash? :roll:

thanks, i'll look into the exp rates and money loss with silver.

Ah sorry. Skipped over that. I'd suggest making some money then.

Yes, that'd be good, but it's kinda hard in f2p, at least as far as I know :/. I mean, the first thing that would come to my mind is to fish :x

I did a lot of mining and smithing in f2p in between memberships.

 

 

 

For you I would recommend the following:

 

 

 

1. Either calculate how many mithril bars you need to smelt and smith until your goal level, then buy that number of nature runes and mithril ore. Equipt a staff of fire, bring natures and mithril into mining guild and start getting coal. Superheat as you mine, bank the inventory (minus 4 spots for coal) and repeat. When you smelted all bars (or the amount that you could affort upon buying ores and nate), go make mithril platebodies and high alc those. Repeat cyclus if necessary.

 

 

 

Result: Near to max xp in mining, and max xp in smithing and magic + profit.

 

 

 

 

 

2. Calculate how many adamantite bars you need to smelt to smithing 88 (or goal level), then buy that number of nature runes and adamantite ore. Equipt a staff of fire, bring natures and adamantite ore into the mining guild and start getting coal. Superheat as you mine, bank the inventory (minus 6 spots for coal) and repeat. When you smelted all bars (or the amoung that you could affort upon buying ores and nats), go make adamant platebodies and high alc those. Repeat cyclus if necessary.

 

 

 

Result: Near to max xp in mining, and max xp in smithing and magic + profit.

 

 

 

 

 

3. Calculate how many steel bars you need to smelt and smith till goal level. Then buy that number of nature runes and iron ore. Equipt a staff of fire, bring natures and iron ore into the mining guild and start getting coal. Superheat as you mine, bank the inventory (minus 2 spots for coal) and repeat. When you smelted all bars (or the amoung that you could affort upon buying ores and nats), go make steel platebodies and high alc those. Repeat cyclus if necessary.

 

 

 

Result: Near to max xp in mining, and max xp in smithing and magic + loss of money.

 

 

 

 

 

I personally bought 40k mith ore and nats and leveled up almost 20 levels to 86 smithing , magic leveled around 20 levels, and mining leveled around 15 levels (to nearly 97). :thumbsup:

I think this is my favorite answer, thanks, i'm gonna do this with Mitrhil :)

yea miths rocks

Why spam threads when they got their answer already? I see most post of your are short sentenced and don't really help out any, if at all.

 

 

 

OT: If you wanna make a little bit more money you can do GoP and just sell the water talismans you can get. That's once of the best money makers in F2P that i heard of. And you also get a small amount of RC exp while getting money to finance your smithing goals.
