Cooking

What's the best way (ie: time&money) to train Cooking to mid-90's? How much gp/xp are we looking at?

Time wise:

Wine owns the house.

 

Balance wise:

Best fish you can do without burning tends to be the best choice; at rogues den.

Cost effective/Cheaper

If you dont value your gp/hr high enough, then doing fish is better.

 

Also fish is more afkable

I meant balance of cost, time and effort.

Cause last numbers I saw fish was fair bit cheaper per xp than wines, more afkable but slower.

Cooking sharks is about 230k/hour xp and recommended as early as level 85 as the higher xp more than makes up for the few that will burn, and money lost is very minimal. I wouldn't suggest wines unless you're fairly high level and have good access to a fast money maker that you enjoy doing.

 

If you want the fastest xp but don't have the concentration required to do wine, do uncooked curries at cooking guild range > catherby > lumbridge. They're 280xp each and stop burning at level 74.

 

FTI, wines are over 600k xp/hour.

Erm... no. Wines are best at lower cooking levels, because the xp gain is the same any time and higher-levelled fish are better than lower-levelled fish. Best to do wines then rocktail with urns if you want cheap and fast cooking.

As for fast moneymakers, you only need about 35m to get 99. Regardless of moneymaker, if you have that cash and want 99 cooking you should just spend it.

I meant high level as in combat and other moneymaking skills, not cooking. Sorry for not being clear.

 

35m is a lot of money to most players when you could get it practically free using raw fish and still average 200k+ an hour. And if you have 35m bank the LAST thing you should do is spend it on training cooking with an expensive method.
