Fletching good money?

[Lep]

I have 91 Fletching and don't understand this...

 

 

 

Some people say Fletching is even better money than Merchanting in some cases, how is this? Can someone explain how much money per hour I can make, and how? :-k I wouldn't mind making 10Mil by Sunday for my first ever Dragon Chain and Legs lol. :oops:

[zyrm]

most likely those people dont merchant high price items or really large amounts of things

 

 

 

in any case flecthing is one of the faster moneymakers but you could make millions more in one day of merchanting then in a week of fletching providing that you didnt buy the fletching items ( of course then you wouldnt be making a profit anyway)

Fletching is not a fast way to make money, but it's a sure and steady way.

 

 

 

There's 2 ways you can make money of fletching:

 

1. Make yew longs or magic longs and alch them.

 

2. Make yew longs or magic longs and sell them.

 

 

 

You can make the most money if you get all supplies yourself. Chop the logs you need, pick your own flax, spin your own bowstrings, craft your own nats (method 1).

 

You might say that picking flax takes too long and you'd rather buy it, but when you pick flax in Lleyta you will get 2k flax an hour (trust me, I handpicked the 70k flax for 99 fletching there). Another method is getting flax from your kingdom. With 100% favor and 75k per day taken from the coffers the cost of flax averages out around 40 gp each.

 

Now on to the bowstring making. It will take a lot of time, but you can ask your friends to help out. Most people with a low crafting level love a free 15k crafting xp. Otherwise you can try trading people flax for bowstrings, but you will have to spin some yourself too.

 

When I was going for 99 fletching magic logs were the only supplies I bought, the 16k yews needed for 85 I chopped personally. For every 1k you spend on magic logs you get 1.5k back with method 1, so it's a pretty good investment.

 

 

 

For fast but less money use method 2. The market for yew longs is great, people are allways buying. Magic longs are only sold on forums and not that much I think.

 

The most money can be made with method 1, but it is also the most time consuming. You will want to make your own nats, otherwise you're better of selling the longs.
