Skills/combat training!

[barbwireboy3]

Im currently in f2p and wanting to train some skills, including combat, as well as making money. I dont really have anything except for rune axe, 2.3m and then some other random junk. Stats are in sig at bottom. Cooking is about 50 i think :S Im hoping for a 99 eventually, but not really cooking or fishing (though i do want to train them abit. I'll probably end up wanting all 70-80+ eventually aswell as quite high ranged. Basically, i want to know how i can train them fast, efficiently and hopefully make some money along the way, incase i do get p2p again and go for high stats there. Hopefully it made sense, probably not but ahh well.

Thanks

At these levels, being a f2p player is a uttermost waste of time. How come you chose to be a f2p player? Membership is cheap.

[barbwireboy3]

Just come back for abit, not sure how much ill be going on it, and even if ill stay on it for a while. Wanting to do f2p for abit, atleast until i get some better stats/money and if im enjoying it more again, then i may consider membership for a month or so again.

You should get members for a month, THEN get better stats and money, THEN consider getting it again.

Ignore the "get p2p now" trolls. Some people just don't understand when someone wants to stay F2P.

 

Fishing - Barbarian Village (either banking in edgeville or dropping the fish) or lobsters on Karamja (using Stiles to note the fish).

Cooking - Either cook your fish if you bank then, or buy and cook lobsters.

WC - Either cut willows in Ramington (sell to general store) for good exp with little profit or maples on the Daemonheim resource island (bank at Daemonheim bank) for GP and exp or cut and burn your own logs

FM - Either burn the logs you cut or buy willows / maples

Mining - Iron ore (bank in resource dungeon) or power mine iron in Rimington

Smithing - Smelt your ores from mining and sell or use or buy ores or bars to make iron platebodies or the new artisans workshop

Combat - Giant spiders in the SoS

Prayer - DO NOT DO! So bloody expensive and slow with no bonus

Mage - High alch your smithing products or bought items or superheat ores

RC - Craft earth runes with or without gloves

Crafting - Hard leather bodies or cut gems or make jewelery

I may get members after a bit, but not yet. And thanks OrTradeMe, just a couple of questions though.

Are there any requirements for Daemonheim island, resource dungeon or the artisans workshop? As far as i remember they werent there when i quit. Also, is the workshop a minigame kind of thing?

Thanks :D

If you stay f2p you might want to try to learn flip merching because you won't get a lvl 99 in f2p with 2.4mill.

 

When you do decide to go for 99 cooking in f2p I would suggest you do it at the ge and light yr own fires/buy your fish,if you go for 99 cooking you will get alot of random events, I would(did) use them on xp lamps/book and use them on prayer you will get a decent prayer lvl.I know this works as I did it for my 99 cooking(f2p) :)

(my tip.it name isn't the same as my rsn)

 

If you still don't have alot of money at this time,and you want to get magic up you can either superheat,this will make little profit/break even/make a small profit.

Or you can do high alc and find a good item that u can make some profit out there (there are items that you can make profit by high alching on f2p)

 

Hope this help you :)

I think ill attempt to do some flipping, i know the basics of it but not really much. Do i just need to find the what it buys for instantly and buy for a couple gp more and find out what it sells for and sell for a couple gp less?

Resource dungeon requires 15 dungeoneering

Resource Island requires 30 dungeoneering

Artisans workshop just came out so I'm not 100% sure about anything, but in the basement I hear there is great training from 1-30 so I'd assume there's no requirements.

[barbwireboy3]

Ill have to try and get dungeoneering up in abit. Will also look into the workshop later aswell, thanks :D

[Quyneax]

You need various smithing levels for the workshop, at least 70 to be able to use all techniques. And yes, to a degree it's a minigame. It's also the latest update.

 

Daemonheim has no requirements. It's the only place you can train the skill dungeoneering.

 

Dungeoneering is a large skill (400+ items involved iirc) and highly complex. It is variously the most loved and most hated skill in RS (I would dare say, more so than any other skill). In f2p though, it's infinitely worse than in p2p, since you will get a 50% xp penalty at your combat level.

Let's say you buy coal,you put in a offer for +10% and note down what it buys at let's just say it buys at 200gp,

Then you sell the coal you just brought for -10% and not down the sell price,let's say 193

(I know they may or may not be the actually prices,I'm just making it simple to understand)

 

You brought the coal for:200---------that will be your selling price.

 

And you sold it for:193----------------that will be your buying price

 

So now you start the flip,

You start of with a small buy amount,let's say you buy 5k coal for 193(you can buy 1gp over to get them faster) you wait a couple of mins and they all buy,then you sell them for 200gp(you can sell them 1gp under to make them sell faster)

 

Then if that works,you should buy the max limit for buying coal of the ge,witch is 25k(like with all ores) buy and 193-194gp wait a couple of mins and once they buy sell them for 200gp and then u make profit and repeat.

 

I only wrote this of the top of my head,there is alot more to know about flip merching,you should read some guides/look at some videos.but the more you practise flip merching the better you will get,as I said there's alot more to know.

 

And don't use the example I used,it was only a example to show you what the basics are.

 

Also,when you are picking a item it is best to pick a stable item,you can tell if the yellow line and blue line(average) on the 30 day graph are not all over the place,If you get what I mean??

 

Hope this helps you to understand the basics of flip merching ;)

(remember to look at some guides/videos) ;)

Wrong, if you select UK as the payment country, and pay with visa it costs like 5-6$ for a month. What is reasonable is to first buy one month of member to see if one likes it, after all, you're not going to play f2p anyway, so why try something you aren't planning on playing? If you don't like it, well, 5$ isnt a big deal.
