Superglass Make for Crafting.

[gorgoroth]

Crafting isn't one on of the skills i'm fond of training due to the costs related to it. If i remember correctly though, i can get about 60k Crafting exp an hour using Superglass Make without Mousekeys. This seems like a fair rate for me. Anyhow, is this the only way of Crafting for Profit? Are there any other methods i might not know about? I'm not going to care about the Magic exp since i'll only start this after 99 Magic. I just want to start looking at options.

Superglass Make is 60k crafting xp and say 400k gp hourly.

 

Green bodies cost 1403 to make, for 372 xp with SC needles. You can craft 800 hourly if I recall correctly. In one hour of Green body making, you get 298k xp at the cost of 1,122k. In addition, you must play 1.3 hours of skill SC to get the tools. So in total, green bodies are 130k xp hourly and 488k gp hourly.

 

Switching to Green bodies saves you 1.2 hours at the cost of 888k. If you make 740k or more, make green bodies.

I look to the Runescape Wiki, cause they have updating prices, and atm they say you get 2032 gp per cast, which at what you say you can get is 900k gp per hour. That bumps the cutoff to a lot more than 700k an hour. I also believe the SC needle is not efficient if you make more than 500k per hour, but prices may have changed. I feel way too lazy to do the efficiency calculations myself, but I will copy my friend's post on our clan's thread (Our secret):

 

"I did the Calculations ruling out Stealing Creation and assuming that everything is bought and sold at the current med price (July 20, 2009). Note that the prices are highly likely to fluctuate over time, but these results should stay more or less the same.

 

Okay, so I did the Calculations for level 92 to 99 Crafting, or approximately 6.5M exp.

 

Doing Green Dragonhide Bodies Maxes at 290K exp/hour, or about 1560 bodies per hour. Assuming med prices are used, You lose 1313 gp per body, thus about 2.05M Gp per hour.

 

To get 6.5M exp at this hourly rate would take approximately 22.5 Hours, and at 2.05M gp per hour, You'd lose about 45.9M Gp on the way to 99.

 

Doing Superglass Make maxes at around 75K exp/hour, or about 580 Spells per hour. Assuming Med Prices are used, You profit approximately 534K Gp per hour (I took one of my old test results and plugged in current GE Values).

 

To get 6.5M exp with this hourly rate would take approximately 86.5 Hours, and at 534k gp per hour, you'd gain about 46.3M Gp on the way to 99.

 

Now, by doing Dragonhide Bodies, you save yourself 64 Hours of Crafting. However, you end up with 92.2M Gp more cash if you did Superglass Make. If you take 92.2M and divide by 64 Hours, you get 1.44M Gp per hour.

 

What this means is that if your best/most reliable money making method makes less than 1.44M Gp/hour (which is most of you), you would be better off doing Superglass Make to 99 Crafting.

 

This does not even take into accout the 45K/hour or so Magic Experience that you get from Superglass Make, which is what really seals the deal for me.

 

Note that it takes a fair amount of practice to achieve this maximum rate at Superglass Make, but in my opinion, It is definately worth it."

 

Btw, you can get 450 casts p/hr without mousekeys? =D> That's pretty godly
