Smithing

[nightspirit]

Hello

 

I was wondering what is the best way to raise smithing? Im level 77.

 

I will most likely buy the ore needed but i want to come over with a profit not a loss, dosnt have to be a big profit just not a loss,

 

 

 

Ive heard of the cannon ball way but theres really no market for cannon balls so i dont want to spend days trying to sell them.

 

 

 

At the moment im minning mith to make mith plates

 

thank you

Days to sell them?! Theres a certain place in world 2 to sell them

Really a certain place on world 2? Wouldnt be Falador park would it? :-k

 

 

 

Ive tried... 2 days to sell 8k cannon balls.

I got to world 2 between the house with the range and the trees... It depends if ur selling for high price, i sell for like 170-175 each

Merchanting cballs won't help him get smithing levels. Cannonballs are incredibly slow and crappy smithing exp. And selling them can really suck sometimes.

 

 

 

If it's profits you're looking for, do the blast furnace. The fastest way to make mucho profits there is with steel plates. Start by world hopping to put 250 coal in the furnace. Then solo there, buying iron from the ore seller and smelting/smithing/alching steel plates. You'll make money and some good smithing exp.

 

 

 

A good alternative is to buy addy ores and then mine coal, superheat addy bars, and then make arrows. Sell for 150ea, and you'll make a nice profit. 1k addy ores will cost, at most, 1 mil, and after the cost of nats and arrow shafts, you'll still come out, at the very least, 600k ahead.

 

 

 

The best thing about the second method is you get a lot of mining exp as well. And if you have 85 mining, do your superheating in heros guild to pick up some rune ores at the same time.

Canonballs are actually one of the fastest ways to gain smithing xp. There is no mining involved as all the ore or bars can be bought and a profit is still made. If he isnt interested in the profit and just wants the xp he can sell canonballs at 150 each where there will always be buyers and he will not come out with a loss. He can buy iron ore at 100 each, coal at 200 each or steel bars at 600 each. Each bar of steel gives 4 canonballs.
