Hi everyone,

 

I have a question regarding f2p-moneymaking. I've posted my stats below.

 

My current goal in RS is to get higher stats and earn a bunch of money to buy cool stuff and get higher stats. I'm thinking of becoming p2p in a couple of months or so.

 

I've been mining iron which I then sell on the GE. I make 300K/hour this way. I have 1 mill. at the moment and want to make another 2 mill next week. On what skill should I spend my money in order to be able to earn more gp/hour? I've read about grabbing wine of zamorak and anti-dragon shields but I'm not really up for that. I find it sort of dissapointing to find that training my skills doesn't seem to lead to be able to earn more gp. Or is that not true? 

 

On an unrelated note, about Runescape etiquette: when I log in at my mine-spot and someone with a lower mining lvl than mine is already there, is it common courtesy for me to hop worlds until I find an empty mine-spot or is it just tough luck for the lower lvl miner?

 

Thanks in advance!

There isn't really much that you can level up to boost your earnings on F2P, sadly. Assuming you're banking in the resource dungeon underneath Falador, that is the fastest you're going to get. Telgrabbing wines of zamorak may be a good bit faster, if you can fight off bots or manage to find an empty world. The only thing that might help would be getting 85 (84 with Dwarven stout) mining for runite.

 

You could also give runecrafting fire runes a shot. You'll make more gp as you get higher runecrafting. I'm not sure how it stacks up with iron - probably similar.You can use clan vexillum/ring of kinship to bank and Al Kharid home teleport to get relatively close to the altar.

 

Regarding etiquette it's mostly up to the individual player. People try to crash or get crashed at that spot all the time. Just bear in mind not everyone you see there is an actual player.

Hi Arceus,

 

Thanks for your reply!

 

I'm F2P. Do I have to be a member in order to trade a bond in-game for gp? I read about bonds and how one bond, which costs €5,09 (for me) can be sold for 13.7M (current GE price). I bought one because I want to sell it in-game. I can see that I have one tradeable bond now in the upgrades&extras screen, but I can't find it in my bank. There's supposed to be a button next to the empty moneypouch button, but it's not there. Do you know what's up?

 

Thanks,

 

Vamp

Both free players and members can trade them for GP, as long as they are in tradeable form - as yours should be since you just bought it. I've never bought bonds with cash, but if it is in the bond pouch it will be accessible through the button at the bottom-left of the inventory:

 

 

The left icon would then presumably say 1, and you can right-click on it and withdraw your bond to your inventory, and then sell it or do as you like. Hopefully that helps :).

Thanks! That was it!
