The F2P General Discussion Thread

At your level I highly suggest 2hander. The high-hitting of it outweighs the benefit of having 1 hand free, and you can always switch weapons when encountering dragons.

 

FYI, I'm cb 92 and I do dragons just with prayer+2h.

    Don't worry though. Thanks to the wonders of MS paint, my signature is now up to date.

  • Personally, I'm of a mind that if it's available on a free world and without buying membershiop, then it's F2P and fair game. Today's update is just an expansion of what that used to entail.

  • No. You might be confusing him with Eikoor, who was rank 1 in F2P defence xp for years (and still is, according to this).   When I discovered the top f2p list sometime in 2005, Mendark was #1. Here's

Its stupidly good imo, considering the LACK of concentration you need to do it. I was getting around 40-50k/h when i did it, that workshop has made smithing laughable easy now, which *guess* is fine considering how easy it already was in members.

You still need to switch items like every 6-7 items made, if you really want to maximize exp.

 

I really love this update though, a skill that is a pain to train is now open to anyone basically.

I dont really think its worth having to switch items when you gain 103.5 per bar vs 111 (or 113) per bar, since you will get the right command 1/4th of the time if you make any random item. i would prefer to sacrifice the extra 8 exp for the freedom to do other things!

 

though if you wanted to really get the most out of it, you have the option to pay attention too!

Don't let "Jagex said smithing revamp" ragers hear you.

 

Personally, I like that update. Right now, I'm waiting for a proper revamp.

always iron ingot I, other are totally not worth it. using RS 'ticks'(way of counting time) the exp maybe be around 130k/h

RuneScape Clock

every 'tick' is 0.6 seconds, and smithing need 4 ticks.

Really? 130k exp/h? That sounds great! What sort of gp/exp is that though? I've been thinking that I want to either get 99 crafting or smithing next and if the gp/exp is decent I think Artisans Workshop may be a great place to get it.

It's not 130k, actually about 40k per hour.

 

Very slow, but 1,63 gp per xp is amazing.

Okay, that exp rate makes a lot more sence, 130k/h seemed just nuts.

haha, late at night again, maybe i count wrong. i later count again.

 

1 tick = 0.6 sec

Forging at an anvil: 4 per item smithed

every item only need 1 ingot

28 ingots = 28 items

assume ignore the Suak calls

1 item = 2.4 sec

1 hour = 3600 sec

1 inventory = 67.2 sec

assume every loads need to deposit and collect more ingots. ~ 80 sec

3600 / 80 = 45 loads

45 * 28 = 1260 items smithed

1260 * 101 = 127,260 xp (not counting the extra exp when 1/4 of the time match the Suak calls)

 

reference: 3600 / 2.4 = 1500 items smithed (non-stop, impossible scenario)

 

i not very sure, correct me if i am wrong.

Pretty sure smithing one item takes way longer than 4 ticks at a time.

 

Also it is pretty much mandatory to listen to Suak because you get 10% more exp (+1% more if you buy the 20% respect thing).

 

I also found out a way to train crafting for "free". It involves dungeoneering and totally clearing out the dungeon (against my rushing rule lol). Gather all the coins from monsters, sell items if you really want to, and use all the money to craft as many protoleather bodies as you can. It's actually pretty neat, I gain ~3k-4k crafting xp per small dungeon (frozen) from all that cash. Since I don't exclusively skill either, a frozen small only takes 20 minutes, no longer than that. Sure it's slow but at least it isn't annoying :thumbup:

hm... now that you say it, 4 ticks seem too quick. i didnt tried myself there, and based the smithing time at wikia. now that iron ore return, i might try when i had time.

lets say 8 ticks also roughly 68k.

listen to Suak calls not always the only choice, you lose some times changing. just to get 10% which about 10xp and the extra 1xp, while smith another one will just get 101xp.

Well, you don't get any cash back in return, so you pretty much HAVE to listen to Suak to get the most out of it.

 

Also, bone yard rocks. Just sayin'.

Smithing 1 item in the workshop takes much longer than 1 item outside. Definitely more than 4 ticks.

I prefer the time I save afking over the extra 10% xp.

lnfernuus.png

ya, it feel like much more longer to smith at the workshop.

most ppl are lazy, and prefer afk training(because of repeatably), this is also the main reason why ppl choose to bot

but like sonikku say, it is just like dumping the cash into the sea, but other who powersmithing plate might consider this good gp/xp

Just timed it, every item takes 9 seconds to make, so 15 game ticks. Make your own conclusions.

 

Max xp per hour is 44400, but in reality 40k.
