what would be a good way to train mining? i'm 55 now, i know it's low that's why i want to train it. i don't care about the money so bank would be no problem

Powermining granite or iron is best, however shooting stars is much more fun. I would powermine and take a break each shooting star wave and mine those for an hour or however long then go back to powermining.

He's FTP, that rules out stars/granite.

 

Powermining iron is about 35k/hour, and coal at the mining guild is 10-15k? Exp and 200k/hour.

thank you, i'm gonna try powermining some iron rocks

btw: where is the best place for that? :) i'll try dwarven mine now

No problem. I would reccomend using a little used spot, such as perhaps a wilderness mine/varrock south west (not sure if it's quiet these days), so you can get a good rhythm going. Also, I'd reccomend using a pvp world/other language world.

Look at this guide. The "for exp" part. It should tell you what you need to know. Also please trust me on doing the shooting stars, they are great exp and a great way to break the monotony of mining.

Mining pure essence is motivating for money.

But only 1/7th the Xp of iron. A three-rock iron pattern in Rimmington or Al-Kharid (which tends to be very busy) gives the best xp/hour for F2P.

Pure essence is members-only as well.

power mine iron till 70 then granite till 77 if you can bear it.

 

 

If not, mine coal and bank it, its a lot slower but i find it less stressful then powermining

Does ANYONE read previous posts? Its been stated Atleast 3 times that hes f2p so no granite,stars,yanille ect

 

Dwarven mine has a few good formations and on a pvp you pretty see NEVER see anyone.

go to a crowded world and do rimmington mines. Mine all, drop all using mousekeys

I'd recommend against this. Mining a full load and then dropping, even with mousekeys, slows things down in my experience. Just drop them as you mine them. Also, if you don't want to fight for ores with a dozen people on a full world, you can still get 30-32k/hr on a world with under 400 people.

Not to mention that on a PVP world the only thing you really have of value will be a pickax since nothing else in F2P really helps with mining. People would probably ignore you since even a full inventory of irons is only ~8k. If you were to be attacked, you could protect your rune pick or already not have to worry about it if it's a +1-item world. The only problem would be a slightly slower respawn rate.

thank you all for the help =D> you all have been wonderful, my mining expirience is going pretty fast , well not fast, but i'm not that much on computer lately so depending on time i spend on mining it's going great :D

 

PS: About my signature - I actually need only 66k till 60 mining, do I need to delete it and re-upload it to change % and XP ?

Could use a Tip.It one which updates itself as time passes.

You should drop 3 at a time, which are positioned vertically in the bottom left hand corner of your inventory. After several tests, I have found this to be the most efficient way to drop ores.

i'm using crandor coal mine at the moment, and as many of you said it's not that stressful and not crowdet at all so it's great

NEVER mine coal for xp, its slower than gold... From personal experience.
