Good skills to do whilst Homeworking?

Featured Replies

Apart from woodcutting and fishing, what other skills are good. I would like to make money, and I would prefer skilling as slayer isn't good enough.

 

Thanks

Smithing cannonballs, they take ages to do so are ideal.

Fletching is pretty low key too.

fletching i dont like, so its an ideal way to get rid of it. cannonballs are low money and xp, so not worth it imo

Fishing if you want that up levels, woodcutting is decent too, and as Joe said, smithing cannonballs and fletching. Usually arrows or bows

I dont need a siggy no moar.

when i don't want to concentrate on runescape i do some vine woodcutting.

Ivy woodcutting really is the bomb, you could train crafting by smelting gold bars into gold necklaces?

I have no intrest in helping "keyers" farm xp.

farming.

Those with a little bit of knowledge are more dangerous than those with none.

farming.

Even though you should be doing that anyway even without homework :mrgreen:

 

Smithing gold ores is what I did yesterday while doing homework, not too much of a loss and it actually gets you smithing xp unlike cannonballs.

String amulet or plank make spells should be kinda good too.

Train your "Focus skill". When you get 99, you'll get good grades and make a lot of REAL money...

 

Seriously, homework > RS, any time.

+1.

 

In the end, RS is a game and you should be putting full attn to school. Don't get sucked into the trap of multitasking and completing less than satisfactory homework and not fully taking advantage of whatever lesson it was trying to enforce.

 

But otherwise, fishing is probably the best option. I can speak from experience that if you do want to multitask, fishing requires very little attention.

LOL.

Oh no, 5 seconds taken off to click a button, and then another 20 to bank. 25 seconds wasted in roughly 5-7 minutes.

and half your concentration gone ;)

OT: I would say either fishing or woodcutting, there's not much else (that i know of) ;)

How about the logoff skill that allows you to concentrate on your homework better so that you can switch back to playing sooner?

Almost every skill has this potential.

 

Melee/Range combat: Obvious, go into an aggressive area.

 

Magic: String Amulet

 

Agility: Cannot.

 

Construction: Cannot.

 

Crafting: Nearly everything to some extent tbh

 

Farming: :P

 

Firemaking: Cannot.

 

Fishing: Everything

 

Fletching: Everything

 

Herblore: Hard, but possible

 

Hunter: Hard, but usually Cannot.

 

Mining: Concentrated Ores/Stars

 

Prayer: Gilded Altar

 

Runecrafting: Cannot.

 

Slayer: Aggressive tasks

 

Smithing: Nearly everything

 

Summoning: The actual gathering of charms you can, but the making of pouches you cannot.

 

Theiving: Cannot

 

Woodcutting: Nearly everything.

I cut ivy for a week while doing homework and went from 85-90 WC.

 

So I say Ivy is the best :thumbup:

Mining... Concentrated gold..

Apparently, my signature was to big.

Personally I like shark fishing at Burg De Rott (Spelling is off I know <_< ), takes ages, the bank is close, and I don't get caught up in conversations. Hell, I watch movies doing this :thumbsup: .

No it isnt lol.

You lose no concentration if you leave the next word or number you want in your head.

I dont need a siggy no moar.

As mentionned countless times, here are my studying skills:

 

- fishing monks, sharks or rocktails (sharks are obsolete though now with rocktails)

- Cutting yews, ivys, magics or eucalyptus (ivy on a secluded place is better for xp)

- smithing bolts, arrowheads, knives or darts (less loss and more AFK potential)

- smelting gold, silver, iron or cannon balls

- fletching unstrung bows

Half? All of it.

 

I highly suggest you keep RS and homework apart. Honestly, homework takes one hour to do, unless it's like an assignment..

 

Funny how people tell you to woodcut, when you clearly said APART from woodcutting and fishing.

 

Any skill where you stand in a bank doing stuff is doable. Herblore, crafting, fletching, magic (string ammy etc.), cooking. Any other is smithing, as already suggested.
