Snapdragon vs. Ranarr

Featured Replies

Which would be better for farming for profit? I'm 66 farming.

At the moment ranarrs. But plant snapdragons in My Arms patch as anything over the average yield (6.8) will put snaps ahead.

I would say the 4 herb patches: Ardy, Camelot, Falador and Port Phasmatys ranarr because you will lose less if they die.

 

and the 1 snapdragon in My Arm's patch because it never gets diseased therefore giving you a guranteed profit depending on your harvest.

By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest;

Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.

I'd say snapdragons, purely because there is more xp.

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

Snap seed -85.2k

Snap grimy - 18.5k

(18.5*6.8)-85.2=40.6

 

Ranarr seed - 38.7k

Grimy ranarr - 11.7k

(38.7*6.8)-38.7=40.86

 

From a purely gp point of view ranarr is better and if you take into account dead plant it works out a bigger gap (3k+ to ranarr).

There are minor fluctuations in prices that change the equation on a daily basis. But overall, snapdragons are nearly always better than ranarrs for money, and are always much better for XP.

Check GE period.

I dont even know why the original poster have to limit himself into only rannar or snaps...

I aggree with the exp part but they are not always more profitable, not even most of the time.

 

Snaps are almost always the poor choice if you are going purely for money.

They have been more profitable than ranarrs every day I have checked for the last two months -- until today, when ranarr seeds just happened to drop to the lowest price they've been in a couple of months.

 

Ranarr seeds are also frequently merchanted up to ridiculous prices.

 

On the whole, snapdragons are routinely the most profitable herb to farm. I know -- I track these things.

The problem with snaps is it hardly moves, both seed and herb.

 

I dont farm everyday but I do farm herbs per week after penguins, I do calcualte carefully before going to myarm's patch. I never find myself buying snap seeds.

 

Since the herb change in early October, kwarm and avantoe get the upper hand alternately.

 

Edit: I use the formula herb*5-seed cost, different formulas might be the reason of our different conclusions.
