Yes, i've gone from 99 defence to fletching. Why? because apparently it's a 99 that's both easy and makes some profit, and 7 years of nothing but a cheap, flimsy rag (aka legends cape) is too old now.

 

 

 

What is a good method to either:

 

get levels fast?

 

make profit?

 

or both?

 

 

 

Im hoping something balanced in the middle since it'll be both fast (due to College taking up time) and making some money. I've got 71 atm and 7.5m to use. advice please?

I did yew and magic longbows, you can buy longbow(u)s and string them for a bit of profit and some decently fast experience. I'd say the fast experience comes from arrows, check out adamant(it may be way to expensive but its in excess of 400k exp/hr).

I can make a small profit stringing yew longbows. It gives the same exp as cutting yew longbows.

I got 99 fletching in a week last year around july, stringing yew longs.

 

This was from 70 ish.

YOU CAN DO IT

 

DONT GIVE UP

 

DONT MAKE ME DISAPPOINTED

I don't know why you would go from defense to fletching. You are 4 levels off 99 defense, and getting it would be quicker than going the 12m or so you have for 99 fletching.

 

 

 

Defense would even make you more money per hour. Slayer would gain you the most profit, however even training on AZ's is profitable. On armored zombies you are likely to get 100-150k gp's worth in items per hour; not to mention the considerable amount of charms (blues being one of their most dropped, next to gold).

 

 

 

However, if you do want to train fletching, then please take into consideration that it is not the fastest 99. Cooking is quicker than fletching, and then right after fletching is thieving. You could get the cooking cape or fletching within a week, and realize with just a couple extra days you could of had the thieving cape. Thieving is 200-230k xp an hour.

 

 

 

For fletching, I suggest simply making yew long bows or magic long bows. They seem to be the easiest to sell on the GE, which when I am training is what I look for. I don't like being stuck with junk when I train.

C'mon, stick to defence!
