Quyneax Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Eh, considering those methods, 200+ hours? I highly recommend superheating once you can do it all the way to 99 as it will give you a LOT of smithing xp and it's probably about as fast & expensive as alching.

ilovecuttingyews Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 yes i know this but im using my number keys which lets you click with 5 on your number pad to telly/alch faster.The speed of telly/alch is not affected by mousekeys as they are at a set speed. 3 game ticks for superheat and 5 for high alch if i remember correctly (1 game tick = .6s). The only difference is the fact that you have to move your hand without mousekeys. So it is your choice. Move mouse manually and get 90-95 smithing, or mousekeys for easy alching but no extra rewards. Also, 3600seconds / 3 seconds per alch = 1200 alches per hour * 65 exp per alch = 78000 exp per hour = 167 hours from 55 to 99 at max alch speed. Adding time to get 55 and 'inefficiencies' like talking etc and you're looking pretty much at 200h like what Quyneax said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilovecuttingyews Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Just to add a little extra info. Just glancing at the GE 30 day charts for approximate pricing I see that superheating mith and steel are 75 gp loss per and iron is 125 loss per cast. Though, if you time your buying/selling right you can come out even / profit though this only works if you have enough GP to continually superheat even if prices aren't favourable for a couple weeks at a time. If you get good at it, superheating is faster exp/h then alching as said by RSWiki:Superheating at a bank, it is possible to use Superheat item to smelt approximately 2500 iron bars per hour, 2500 gold bars per hour, 1600 mithril bars per hour, 1300 adamant bars per hour, or 1200 Rune bars per hour. 2500 gold bars per hour would be 132k magic experience and 56k smithing experience(140K if wearing gauntlets). Rates are subject to change from person to person. For day to day prices you can also see: http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Calculators/Superheat Alching looks to be around 50-100 gp loss per cast for most F2P items as you can see here http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Alchemy/Guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
