Where is best to cut magic tree's?

Either near sorcerer's tower or near lleyta.

 

but that aside: Cutting mage tree sucks. They are soooooooooo slow they work out worse money and xp than yews.

Sorcerer's Tower, there are 4 Magic Trees there, they're about 20-25k xp/hr and 80-120k gp/hr.

 

However, it's overpopulated with bots 24/7.

Try Mage Arena near Duel Arena. There is like 6 there XD

i think the magic trees near lleyta are the best, but ye magic trees are HORRIBLE money

As others have said, don't.

 

Higher level doesn't mean it's better.

Then why does everyone cut magics whenever I happen to see one?

Just cause people do it doesn't mean its efficient or better.

 

I don't have exact numbers but it works something like this:

yew is 175xp per log

Magic is 250xp per log

 

Yew is ~450gp per log

Magic is ~1300gp per log

 

You can easily cut about ~5 yew logs for every 1 mage log.

So thats in same time frame:

 

250xp and 1300gp for mage logs

875xp and 2250gp for yews

 

The winner is clear.

The same reason so many people buy lottery tickets.

 

They can't do math.

Like most everyone in the thread said, magic trees are horribly slow to cut down - if I were growing them in my tree patches, even I'd refuse to bother cutting them down, I'd pay and get rid of them faster >_>

 

Regardless, if you want to cut them down, besides the places the above have listed, you could also go the route of using a tree patch and a hydra familiar with scrolls - cut down the tree, cast the regrowth scroll on it and it automatically regrows. If you don't have access to a hydra, you could also just use the tree patch in the Gnome Stronghold, I believe it's relatively close to a yew tree or a magic tree (can't recall).

Actually, its close to both ;)

It seems to me that most of the people cutting magic trees are either

a.) bots

b.) people afking

 

but that seems to be the cases with a lot of the higher leveled resource gatherers.

You see people cutting them for the same reason you see people slaying with godswords. People aren't always smart, in fact, quite often people are idiots.

 

From the looks of it though you want WC exp and money. The best way to do that would be to do ivy while farming herbs, always have a magpie familiar foraging for you and wear a rabbit foot necklace. Keep your sound on and you can afk, only swapping back to RS when you hear yourself stop chopping of when you hear a nest fall. Make sure to do your dalies. You can also do some light flipping on the side if you're into that.

 

Then, once you have the WC level you want go and do your best moneymaker.

 

Voila, WC exp and money.
