insaneluver Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I say that because essentially, money making is a bunch of mindless clicks.. like getting to lvl 85 mining is 85k iron ores (from level 60 i believe?) .. thats 85k useless, mindless clicks, just to mine the ore.. assuming the best case scenario, that you've got someone to trade with all the time.. thats 85*2= 170k more clicks.. so 255k clicks so far.. if you bank them or drop trade..omg And for those who think everyone doesn't need that kind of money, you'r wrong.. i am 81 wc.. but i can barely sustain training magic.. i am 500 chaos from lvl 76 magic, and i am about 60k chaos away from lvl 85 magic..(using Chaos is the best combination of time and money., unless u high alch steel plates, but their prices have gone up so its more expensive now..) so 60k chaos, 180k airs.. thats 60*100K for chaos at shops, and 180k*20 (from players) ..a bit right? lol Ofcourse there are people who are rich..but how many clicks ..how much time have they spent?

count_chocula Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 well, i clicked up 150 or so k and bought a santa hat back when runescape was ugly (uglier that is). then i put it in the bank. total click count: 2 total profit: mucho. and the beauty is my trick still works, santa hats just cost more now. click, buy a santa hat, leave for a few years and youre rich. just imagine if you could get that kind of surefire interest so easily in the real world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outsanity Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 It does get easier. You can craft 30 essence into runes at level 24 and below Runecrafting. Then at 25 you can do 35, and at 50 you can do 43. (Natures! :)) At Level 54 you can do 43 Laws, and at 65 you can do 43 Deaths. Level 75 Runecrafting gets you 54 Deaths, Natures, Laws, or Double Chaos Runes a run. At 77 Runecrafting you will (in the future) be able to do 54 Bloods. Until then, get 91 Runecrafting and make 108 Nature Runes a run. I totaled the amount of money you can make by doing 108 natures a run through the abyss. It comes to roughly 1,400,000 - 1,500,000 GP an HOUR. If that isn't making good money, tell me what is. (Drops don't count, as they are taking a risk, and are not assured.) By the way, don't complain that Runecrafting is hard and long and expensive...because it isn't. I may only have around 788,000 Runecrafting Experience at the moment, but I don't always train it. If I had been training it ever since I could do deaths a week ago, I'd be at 75 Runecrafting right now, for sure. |2,300+ Total|138 Combat|12 Lvl 99 Skills|99 Slayer| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runescape_rocks Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 If youÃâÃÂ¡ÃÆÃÂ¥re tired of money-making using skills, then try merchanting. I like it much more because it requires more knowledge, more skill, and best of all, fast typing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubsa Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Pardon?! How is buying something, letting it sit in your bank a few months then selling it for more hard?! This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gondeath Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Hm, dont look at it as "so many clicks" but as how much you can make in 1 hour of work. Since 1 hour isn't too long, and most who play rs play 1h a day for 3 or more days a week... that means your 1h rate can easily be done 3x a week. ============================ Heres a few (stress few...) tips. Grab flax. Do this at seers, south of pete's party place, you should get around 600 to 800 flax per hour, and reap 60k to 120k from selling them (which isnt too hard), or you can spend some time getting some craft xp, yet still sell for 60k to 120k an hour. ============================ Craft Nature Runes. This is my favorite one, since its a quick, less "click" consuming way of money. Grabing the pouches up to your level and using a tiara will help too. I suggest you do Grand Tree so you can use the gliders, and save time on runs (without the fear of loosing your items to re-buying them at a shop), and use a Glory to teleport back, with games neckalces to re-charge your glory(ies). Selling natures for 300 each... you can make a nice amount of cash (although you can sell them for a good amount more...) (Selling natures for 300 each, not counting the time to sell) At 44 you can make 170k per hour At 50 you can make 210k per hour, without too much rush. At 75 you can make a nice 270k per hour, easily. At 91 you can make a wopping 540k per hour, without rush! ========================== Some merchant items, and can get 100k to 250k each hour, relitivly consistant. Hope this helps, or at least lets you see there are other options for nice cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lpinkus Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 If youÃÆÃ¯ÃâÿÃâÃÂ½ÃÆÃ¯ÃâÿÃâýre tired of money-making using skills, then try merchanting. I like it much more because it requires more knowledge, more skill, and best of all, fast typing. More skill? Hardly. I'm not saying it's easy to do, but it's clearly *not* a RS skill. And if you're talking about merchanting rares, JAGeX is actually against that (check the FAQ). Yes, they're tradeable, but that's because so many would whine and quit it they made them untradeable. lpinkus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duke_Freedom Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 This whole game evolves around pointless clicking? Why do you expect money making to be different? In fact money making is the only thing you can without pointless clicking... Go merchant. And if you're talking about merchanting rares, JAGeX is actually against that (check the FAQ). They are not against it, they would just rather not see it happen :P. The value of my bank at its height. Estimated value at the peak of the rares market: 250 billion+.Most likely the largest trade in RuneScape ever. Estimated value at the peak of the rares market: 70 billion+.

They are not against it, they would just rather not see it happen :P. That would be defined as being against something, Duke. But of course, someone of your black-and-white, stubborn nature would not quite understand the concept of actually doing things on Runescape that require the longevity of clicking, and would rather reap the benefits of the unstable economy. Yes, sure, you've got the money of it all...but what good is all that cash when most of the good skills you've got are ones you can buy. You might find it an honourable business, and an official one at that, but many, excuse me, would beg to differ. As for people who wish to make money without clicking, just quit playing Runescape...right now. If you expected to play an online game, and make millions of gp just by sitting there and staring at your screen, then apparently someone mislead you about RPG's. :lol: |2,300+ Total|138 Combat|12 Lvl 99 Skills|99 Slayer| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archimage_a Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 I am reminded of a phrase Its just a game Is there something wrong with most of you. You seem to think that merchants get their money from thin air. They dont...Let me explain the story of the humble GP. You get GP from items or killing stuff This is then traded about abit between players It is then given back to a shop or is taken by the ground The end. I was having the same argument with my one of my Friends. He is a merchant who has come up with the idea that he can get money from merchantry forever, He is obvoius to the fact that hard working people like me have to make this money. He seems to think that if everyone sold herbs to each other then everyone would be rich. Im not saying that merchants are bad or that it is a bad way to make money but you need to understand that you have to do some work other wise you have people just sending money round in a circle, as in the real world. When houses come out they will charge rent otherwise the money will continue to grow massively until a million gp is nothing, as everyone becomes richer and richer money becomes worth less and less, but unlike the real world the prices don't reflect that making it impossible for people to make the grade with there money. Its basicly 500 workers to every merchant. Without the merchant the workers are divided, with out the workers the merchant has no money and is there for useless. Its give and take, they are both important roles and they are both equal role you can say that one is better because the situation is carfully balanced. http://www.uzzisoft..../archimage.jpegWell I knew you wouldn't agree. I know how you hate facing facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't agree with the guy who started the topic, by the way. Of cour se there are plenty of ways to make money. I didn't really have to type that, did I? Yes, merchanting is a legit alternative, but I doubt he (or the average player) has the funds to get it started at the moment. I also assume he wants to make his money while fighting, mining, crafting, etc. I'll just say one more thing to get under the merchants' skin: No one has 99 merchanting.
