If you really want an in-depth guide, I'd just go check out Runescoop. Not sure what you're trying to prove here, but making money is pretty easy even with minimal stats.

[Star_Fox]

flip items, monster hunt, crash teams, camp, farm in ge, skill, and last but not least...beg.

[svs]

Buying some rares, quitting and then coming back next year.

[Squisher_33]

dont spend money for a long time

[Sly_Wizard]

*Doesn't include santa's, some masks, pumpkins and disks.

Frost drags are meant to be really good (85 dung required).

 

This probably belongs in help and advice though.

Moved this thread to Help & Advice, you'll get better responses here :)

That's all the methods I can think of off the top of my head. F2P or pures can average 500k/hr while P2P can average 1m+/hr and high lvl P2P can average 3m/hr easily. Take your pick.

My personal favorite, and source of funds for everything I do: runecrafting. 700k an hour at a relaxed pace, far more if you are intense and focused. Its the most reliable source of income, and is pretty good if you ask me.

DKs is just as reliable and with a yak it averages at 3.5m profit/hr (Banking bones/hides ftw)

Really? I mean i bought my santa for 10M two years ago and sold for 85mil when I came back... -_-

 

Sure it goes up and down a lot more often than say a phat, but thats because there are alot more santa's being traded. But without a doubt you wait long enough on a santa you will ALWAYS make money.

 

That being said making money...

 

Dailies (runes, broad bolts, battlestaffs, etc...)

Herb runs

MTK

 

And combine it with another way to make money (what you will spend most your time on). If you actually like to play and enjoy the game I suguest slayer, even if you power slay its profit, if you take your time its big profits on certain tasks. I made 900k on a task yesterday just with herb/seed drops for example...

[jamesrules90]

Collect blue drag scales from dungeon and crush them. Can be a bit slow at times but you get about 30k per trip if you take a spirit terrorbird.

That isn't the only good method of free play moneymaking.

 

Runecrafting water runes, runite mining, and cockroach soldiers can easily reach those amounts as well.

[Gravy]

do work.

Since when is merchenting=price manipulation?

500k/hr with water rcing is pretty much impossible the last I checked. The fastest time I managed to get with cabbage telly -> draynor bank was around 2 minutes. It's slightly faster (like 10 seconds tops) using lummy teleport, but then you're using law runes and also taking up a slot for earth/air runes. Even at the max multiplier, I could expect 150k-200k at the very best.

 

I can't speak on roach soldiers since I haven't done them much, but seeing as rune items are their main valuable drop, you'd need to get around 20 an hour to get to 500k. That seems somewhat unlikely.

I think people are forgetting the most important thing on this thread- what exactly is rich? For some people, mining copper and tip, smithing them to bronze plates and selling to varrock store makes them rich, but for others, countless hours of monster hunting and merching still doesn't achieve that goal. Is 500m rich? For most people, it might be, but for others, they still wouldn't be able to buy 4 items with that amount. And when going by that perspective, merchanting is the only way to get rich.

[Bladewing]

Yup, if you're planning on getting a divine or a partyhat you will need to do some type of merchanting.
