Where do people get the money to cannon/chin?

Featured Replies

Luck based:

Corp can be quite profitable in a mass CS or LS

Look on runescape's forums under "Teamwork" to find a clan that allows low levels.

I started off at 110 combat/super pots/piety corping in a mass and in a matter of months I had overloads/turmoil/bandos/arma/ect.

 

Solid constant income:

- You can also try training skills such as runecrafting, ATM Rcing natures can be up to 500k p/h if you use the graahk method at 44 rc.

- Hunting red chin's are extremely profitable now days because there is no bots and 1 red chin sells for up to 2k in the GE.

- My fav money making method is slayer & farming herbs every 70 mins.

 

If you have any questions about other methods of money making / Training / Boss hunting, ect. PM me and im sure we can work something out (:

If there was a like button I would use it here, just goes to show there are places that you can go as a low level and still earn money.

Corping requires a ton of time, and you need to have great luck if you want to make a fortune there.

At 44 rc, astrals are both better xp and gp than natures.. hell, even at 91 rc, astrals are a whopping ~5k more experience/hr and about 150k more profit than natures.

 

Also, it's not possible to consistently farm herbs every 70 mins.

Working on max and completionist capes.

Well maybe it's just me getting frustrated about the unstability of the RS economy at the moment. Prices just change faster than I can keep up with them. A small update can cause a very big chain-like reaction to the economy and it seems really "tense".

 

I could go RC (I already gained 30k to 92 rc atm) - however I constantly fear the same thing happened like a few years back: before I get the time to devote really into it the prices crash...

First they came to fishing

and I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing

 

Then they came to the yews

and I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews

 

Then they came for the ores

and I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores

 

Then they came for me

and there was no one left to speak out for me.

Well you're not going to make money if you're not willing to take any sort of risk. You will need to take the risk that your investment in time and essence turns out to be less profitable than another method. That happens. Even more so with boss hunting, where you may need to invest 20+ hours and millions of gp before a good drop.

Just depends on what your money making method is.

 

I've done 99% of all of my range xp from just cannoning (all from slayer + frosts). In both cases, especially frosts, the money I made easily made up the expense of cannonballs. With a yak, one can easily make 3M+ an hour at frosts, which pays for 7-8k cannonballs nowadays, which is fairly decent. I'm not sure how well slayer pays for cballs due to the decrease in value of drops overall, but I imagine you can still afford some. People usually just figure out a way they want to make money and stick with it. Just try frosts out, or farm herbs, kill bosses, or do something that will bring in money, and you'll realize how people can afford to buy them.

Well in the past I liked doing slayer for money. But with the constantly drop of prices in slayer & growth in supply price this just becomes non profitable anytime soon in the near (year) future.

We've established that you need money to make money.

E.g. having money makes moneymaking more efficient.

 

However if you do not have money, those more efficient methods are not available.

E.g. the most efficient method depends on what money you have.

 

It is true you can't do tds with ovl/turm/steel titan, which is most efficient for a maxed player. But that doesn't apply to you, you aren't maxed.

E.g. you shouldn't judge moneymaking by the strategies a maxed+rich player would use.

 

Judge moneymakers by how good they are for you.

E.g. tds with unicorn, no overloads and no turmoil are better than glacors with the same stats.

And in the event you're Maxed Combat (with the exception of 90 range/85 pray) and you DONT have Turmoil, Overloads, a Unicorn OR Extreme potions? Boss = CANNOT BE DONE. I have tried, I get crashed by [bleep]ing turmoil zerkers because I cant afford anything decent, and other methods are too damn slow, too unstable (in terms of marketing) or make the average person want to murder his pet (im talking about sitting there, farming thousands of chinchompas)

 

The problem is (and sorry if I just thread hijacked) some of us don't have the time to spend hours into this game, just to afford gear, JUST to enjoy it. why the hell should I, a player of 10 years, have to have my arse handed to me by some bratty 120 who earned most of his bank from dicing? sorry if im exploding, but alot of players cant seem to see it from OUR view because they have had a steady income over time. and in my instance, a TIF'er managed to hack/steal my account during the ONE day timeframe I was moving states, no one else knew but TIF and my family, and stole my entire bank. How would you feel if someone from the very community did that to you and you havent been able to recover that loss months later?

 

again, sorry for the outburst, but it had to be said.

1) You aren't maxed combat by a long stretch.

2) Turmoil zerkers typically don't boss.

3) They are the best you got, therefore not slow. You can't compare moneymakers to some ideal you can't even access. I'm not claiming that tds are slow because I should be making 50m/hr staking, am I? Because I can't make 50m/hr staking. I can do tds. To quote Captain Jack Sparrow: "The only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can’t do. " For instance, you can accept that you are not a maxed bosshunter and a good man or you can’t. But not maxed is what you are now, boy, so you’ll have to square with that some day.

 

The problem is (and sorry if I just thread hijacked) some of us don't have the time to spend hours into this game, just to afford gear, JUST to enjoy it. why the hell should I, a player of 10 years, have to have my arse handed to me by some bratty 120 who earned most of his bank from dicing? sorry if im exploding, but alot of players cant seem to see it from OUR view because they have had a steady income over time. and in my instance, a TIF'er managed to hack/steal my account during the ONE day timeframe I was moving states, no one else knew but TIF and my family, and stole my entire bank.

again, sorry for the outburst, but it had to be said.

If you need to spend hours not enjoying yourself to enjoy yourself, you need to ask yourself: is it worth it? And secondly: life works that way. It's not all fun. If you want to have fun all of the time without effort put in, search long and far, because nobody's found that yet.

 

You seem to think that just because you played ten years ago, you deserve to be rich and successful. That's not how it works. Efficient people, focused (non-afk) people and people with lots of playtime get rich (and lucky people). That 'bratty 120' had one or more of those factors. You apparently don't. You can either get them, or stop whining.

Spoken like a true socialist, Tim. Just because you've been around longer or had bad luck, I'm not sure why you feel entiteled to wealth or the best money making or training methods. As Q said, all of the people who more money and higher levels have done something to deserve it. Are you sure they don't see things from your viewpoint? They were all poor at some point. Maybe it's YOU who doesn't see things from THEIR viewpoint.

Follow my progress toward maxing in f2p here:

why the hell should I, a player of 10 years, have to have my arse handed to me by some bratty 120 who earned most of his bank from dicing?

 

It's a game, that requires very much, a survival of the fittest approach in many aspects. If you are good enough, you win. If you aren't, you lose.

 

Shit happens.

 

AND whilst I am buying into your rant, you can very easily have a "steady" income as well. You know how I make money? Farming. Nothing else.

 

All my kingdom collections get banked. I store all my dailies, apart from staves which I sell off at cost to a friend.

Whilst you won't be making as much as I have because you aren't playing as much, it is still there. Eventually youll be able to afford whatever the hell it is that is gunna stop you from being so mad.

 

[bleep] OFF HOW ARE U SO [bleep]ING LUCKY U PIECE OF [bleep]ING SHIT [bleep] [bleep] [wagon] MUNCHER

 

 

I don't know about you, but I tried pulling money out of my ass and it worked.

Buy cannonballs when you can. Skip that when you can't. I think that is the main way of thinking yous hould handle. You will be seeing people with cannon balls flying all over the place, dressed in fancy clothes and not thinking about the money they use for it. The thing is. Those people are well experianced. If you train slayer the right way. You make money fast. Just do finish your tasks asap and do a herb fun run after 2 slayer tasks and do not skip them (the farming runs). This way you even make more money out of your slayer trips. For PvM that you are unlucky in your drops says more about the amount of attempts im afraid. Loads of people do give up after a few dry runs where they lost money in. Then again, dont do them if you cannot afford them. To make easy money, you need a solid amount of cash pile. If you dont have that, then you have to accept that it will go a bit slower for you.

Want some starting cash? How about planking mahogany planks with demon butler? It's a bit boring, but at the current prices it guarantees around 1,5m-2m profit /h. Bad side is that it doesn't give any XP.

 

I personally made my wealth to turmoil + 99 herblore by doing unfinished potions with dungeoneering scroll. I also had Miscellania + I did dailies and occasionally farmed herbs. It was also no xp profit, but on the other hand it took me only couple weeks to buy turmoil and another two to get 99 herblore on bonus xp weekend. After that, haven't had to go back there - and now I got (aside yak) pretty much all the levels for doing anything.

 

Other options is runecrafting deaths via abyss.. Or hunting chins/grenwalls. If one wants to make money, one will. Even if you just aim to make 1 million a day (which isn't much) it will eventually pile up. 365m a year?

Cba to read the wall of text here so i'll just say: start out small

 

Do daily/weekly shit.

Start doing regular farming routes and incorporate them wherever you see fit.

Start doing Glacors when you can, make some money off it, then choose between 2 routes:

 

Route 1: Start stacking up on cannonballs whilst continously do the 3 things above.

Route 2: Powerlevel up farming/Herblore, and spend some time nolifing to get your combat stats up, then try some harder boss hunting.
