Noxx Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Back to the books for me. So while i study/do assignments i'd like to raise some of the skills i can train "afk" ie. not having to click a million times or even look at the screen for a certain period of time. I already have Ivy for Woodcutting, Gold Ore for Smithing and Concentrated Ore for Mining. When it comes to fishing i have no idea what would be best. I would have to be something that offers good Exp but also takes a while for the inventory to fill up. Close to a bank too. I was thinking either Swordfish/Tuna, Lobsters or Monks. I'm not too worried about profit, its more about getting the best afk Fishing exp. Suggestions? Edit: I kind of enjoy Barbarian Fishing. Ive heard it was best Fishing Exp in game and the insane ammount fo clicking makes it really fun for me. Only thing is, instead of getting 60k+ exp/h im getting around 40k/h. Is there something wrong with the method i use? I use the Fish one- Drop one. Ive heard this is the fastest method, but if so why am i stuck on 40k/h?

Pluckey Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Monkfish for you probably. 30k xp/hour. Then at 90 do Rocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nostar Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 85-90 you might wanna do Cavefish. Dagannoth Rex Drops : Zerker ring x2 / Dragon hatchet x2 / Warrior ring x3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vex Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Fish flingers using the cc: fish fling1 5 min of activity 15min of afk. 20k a game xp. Games are every 90minutes 10 entries a week. Do this in between other afk activities http://www.[Caution! Jagex Rule Violation].com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stan18 Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Monkfish with sounds on til 85, then cavefish until 90. Cavefish and rockfish are great because they are high xp/catch, meaning you bank every 10 minutes, however they do not make sounds, so you need to check back every 3 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpikeStr1ke Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I agree with stan also a friend sent me a link to this stopwatch that i've been using, it's pretty simple but effective and u can set it to where it works ever 4 mins 30 seconds so that u can do something to reset the logout timer.

AresArtemis Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 You could make steel bars into cannonballs. Terrible exp, but 1 inventory of bars takes around 3 minutes and you'll profit around 300gp per bar (not sure about the profit). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others have said, rocktail (cavefish if you can't do them) are ideal for afk fishing. Decent exp, a little money, and possibly the most afk activity in the entire game.

Noxx Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 Then just a quick question added in OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Th e Doctor Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 *Mumbles something about the three tick drop method* there's a section on it in the mining guide in the aow. That's the only thing i can think of so i hope someone corrects me if im wrong. Armadyl Drops : 4 Hilts; 3 Chestplates; 2 Chainskirts; 1 Helmet; 1 Buckler; 2 Shard 1; 2 Shard 2; 1 Shard 3Nex : 1 Zaryte BowKalphite King : 1 Drygore Rapier ; 1 Drygore Longsword : 1 Drygore Offhand Rapier : 1 Drygore Offhand Longsword Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aslan Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Just a tip:try and use the new urns(you could make decorated urns).10 urns/skill at one time so you could make a few hundred urns and just use a water rune on one, to make it a fishing one, once the previous one expires.

Noxx Posted February 15, 2011 Author Share Posted February 15, 2011 Ive been doing that. It takes me about 13 mins to fill up an urn, so tthats about 8.5k exp/h more. i should be able to get close to 75k exp/h with both Barb Fishing + urns yet im still not getting near that.

AresArtemis Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 I provided the information about making cannonballs because to me it seems he mainly wants something that is afkable and thinks of fishing --> "So while i study/do assignments i'd like to raise some of the skills i can train "afk"". Just telling that making cannonballs is also an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just telling that making cannonballs is also an option. And if you had read the entire post you would have seen that he was taking suggestions for fishing in light of already having ways of semi-afking other skills including smithing. edit OT: monks to 85 caves to 90 rocks to 99. Not sure how much the new urns hurt/help afk training.

Quyneax Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Urns are 20% more xp/hr so they are definitely worth getting. For fishing, you got to cut the fish and eat the roe then reclick the fishing spot. You should also use a granite lobster but I think that's minor.

Cutting the fish doesnt give any added exp right? And yeah i started using Granite Lobsters which pushed my exp up by a bit. Im up to about 53k exp/h using Lobster + Urns. Still a long ay off what it should be :\Maybe its just some practice? Wouls alchng the fish me faster that dropping? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
