Farming Routes

[Sy_Accursed]

I know theres a fair few guides around bout this kind of thing; but they mostly disagree and are slightly out of date in most cases.

 

So from what I gather to train farming effectively I wanna be doing allotments, herbs, specials and trees; but not bushes and hops yes?

 

So what would be some of the best farming routes people use to get around these various patches?

 

If it matters I have access to like everything, other than teleport spells above my mage level.

Copied this from a pm:

 

Allotments are the same as herbs obviously, just add some more seeds to the herb run inventory.

 

The easiest thing to do to get to all of your trees is probably this route:

 

Spirit tree to grand tree; plant 1 fruit tree/1 normal tree. Bank is close.

Spirit tree to tree gnome village, go out of the maze; plant 1 fruit tree.

Tiny elf crystal to lletya; plant 1 fruit tree.

House tele to brimhaven (or ardougne tele and boat if you don't have your house in brimhaven); plant 1 fruit tree.

Camelot tele; run to catherby and bank if you want. Run east to patch and plant fruit tree.

Falador tele; run to park, plant normal tree.

Tele castlewars, balloon to Taverly and plant another normal tree.

Lumbridge tele; run to nw of castle, plant normal tree.

Varrock tele; plant normal tree at palace, run to GE/bank at cwars.

 

This is pretty much split up into two seperate fruit tree/tree parts, so you can easily do another tree run if you want to.

Take farming tools, saplings, teles and 1k to pay the farmer to cut down your normal trees.

 

This is my herb run, you can do the patches in any order you want now that the leprechaun notes your herbs, doesn't matter where you end either because you should bank with duelling ring after you're done.

 

 

Have fun farming :D

Do bushes if you can grow poison ivy.

 

This is what I use for herb/allotments:

Trollheim Teleport

Ectophial

Explorer's Ring

Skills Necklace -> Fishing Guild

Camelot Teleport

 

This is what I use for trees:

Varrock Teleport

Falador Teleport -> Falador tree

Lumbridge Teleport

Camelot Teleport -> Catherby

Duel Ring -> Moblising Armies -> Spirit Tree -> Gnome Village

Duel Ring -> Mobilising Armies -> Spirit Tree -> Grand Tree

Balloon -> Taverly

Duel Ring -> Mobilising Armies -> Spirit Tree -> Brimhaven (use house tele here if you don't have a spirit tree yet), Fruit tree and run south to Calquat

Elf Crystal -> Lletya

 

This is what I use for bush/mushroom/cactus runs:

Duel Ring -> Cactus

Combat Brace -> Champion's Guild

Ring of Slaying -> Fairy Rings CKS -> Mushroom

Fairy Rings DJP

Ring of Slaying -> Fairy Rings CIP

House tele (in Rimmington)

Here my route; I'm not guaranteeing you it's the most efficient, but it's works well.

 

Trollheim tele

-Trollheim Herb patch

Empty your ectophial

-Mort Myre Herb/Allotment

Cabbage Tele with Explorer Ring

-Faldor Patch

Camelot Tele

-Catherby Allotment AND Fruit Tree

Run South to...

-Ardy Alloment

Then I take the ardy boat to Brim to plant a fruit tree and, if you can, plant a Spirit Tree to use it.

If you use the Spirit Tree to Gnome Tree Village (if you can't plant one, tele to MA to use the S tree there)

Follow Elroy out of the maze(or whatever his name is; I made up Elroy lol)

-Gnome Tree Village Fruit Tree

Travel back into the village and take the Spirit Tree to the Gnome Stronghold

-Gnome Stronghold Fruit Tree/Tree patch

use Tiny Elf Crystal

-Elf Fruit Tree

 

That's all I do for the most part :unsure:

Add in other patches near by if you can and add on more. Farming routes are really just strategic teleporting.

Taken from my farming guide. Look in my sig for the full guide.

 

It is better to do tree/fruit tree, herb, jade vine and bush runs (and bushes ARE actually worth farming) separate. Exception are Calquats.

 

Tree/Fruit Tree:

 

1. Tele to Varrock

 

2. Tele to Lumbridge

 

3. Tele to Falador

 

4. Tele to Camelot/Catherby

 

5. Duelling Ring to MA and Spirit Tree to Gnome Village

 

6. Duelling Ring to MA and Spirit Tree to Gnome Stronghold

 

7. Balloon to Taverly

 

8. Duelling Ring to MA and Spirit Tree to Brimhaven, then run south to Calquat

 

9. Tiny Elf Crystal to Lleyta

 

1 run takes 7-8 minutes. My best time is in the low 7 minutes.

 

Herbs:

1. Tele to Camelot/Catherby

 

2. Tele to Trollheim

 

3. Tele to Ectofungus

 

4. Tele to Fishing Guild

 

5. Tele to Cabbage Patch

 

6. Tele to Duel Arena

Ooo awesome guide Zaaps musta missed that one in my browsing of guides.

 

Only thing I'd say from an xp view point, is it worth while doing fally allotment running over to draynor to do belladonna and (if you happen to have the seeds) evil turnip?

[Zaaps1]

I usually don't farm belladonna/evil turnip. It's not worth the time for evil turnips. Since the profit isn't great and the xp is abysmal. For belladonnas, that's more debateable. I know many people like to, and that's fine. I personally don't. The xp isn't as good as poison ivies, which are average to begin with, and the product isn't tradeable.

 

So unless you have the herblore level to use them, don't farm belladonna. Never farm evil turnips.
