Varrock Platebody Question

Featured Replies

Which Level of Varrock Platebody is necessary to mine two Granite ores at once?

 

 

 

Also, does it make sense to track Shooting Stars while Mining, or they're not worth it?

i'm not that lvl yet but if you mean best way I think you mean faster way, and I suppose that is powermining granite

I'd say go with power mining iron because granite is slower until around 80.

I am a Member... How on earth is Iron faster? I always thought Granite was the best?

Our_Moon.png

Plenty of friends have told me that granite until 80+ is slower than what a good iron miner can do. I personally don't know because I've never power mined but I take their word for it as they are 99 mining also.

 

 

 

You could always test it for yourself :|

 

 

 

Edit: of course with the 3 iron rock spot out of the question now it might be slower.

New question being asked =o.

Our_Moon.png

There is a 3-rock spawn just northeast of the kyatt teleport. With dueling rings and a kyatt banking is very fast.

Moocky, is it faster than dropping it?

Our_Moon.png

I don't think the varrock armour affects granite.

there is also a 3 iron spot just south of piscatoris, which is close to bank if you are banking.
