I do that, but fairly difrently. Anthor way to do that is if you just want xp, and got alot of time, and few bucks in the bank. You could buy them also, minds 20 ea, fires 10 ea, or airs 15 ea. For 1k of fire strike costs around 50k, and is 11.5k xp +. Then go to the Black Dragons in the Member Dungen (Taverly Dungen), and just keep casting it their.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That's what I did. :P \ \ \ \ \ \

cool guide - im giving it a go now :mrgreen:

 

 

 

You might want to add some pics if you want it in the AOW

I already posted, but I thought about this again:

 

 

 

Aren't the blue dragons a bit, ehh, crowded. (Every time I got there to kill hellhounds it was packed of people)

Good Guide Rubish Idea And No Pics

No you don't. Never seen people ranging those dragons??

 

 

 

They're not like metal drags if t hey can't hit you, their breath can't hit you too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Good Guide Rubish Idea And No Pics

I've seen few of you critisims so far and I noticed you complain a lot about other peoples guide. There's nothing wrong with that if it was constructive critsism. But yours isn't. You just say "this is rubbish" and that's mostly the whole substance of youre guide.

 

 

 

So please say a bit more what excactly what's wrong (or just say nothing at all)

Well written but very bad advice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Crafting minds. It is both unprofitable and a complete waist of time. It has a significantly lower ROI, gp per hour and xp per hour return than other runecrafting. Here is why you shouldn't craft mind runes:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A round trip to the mind alter takes 3 minutes 11 seconds. That is 18 trips per hour for 2,016 minds per hour(at level 44). For a total of 2,772xp RC per hour.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A round trip to the air alter takes 1minute 14 seconds . That means 48.5 trips an hour for 6,790 airs per hour(at level 44). For a total of 6,790xp RC per hour.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I ran to both alters, so it will actually take much longer if you are walking all the way to the mind alter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you sold the runes it would be 40,320gp for the minds at 20gp each, and 135,800gp for the airs at 20gp each. You could buy 1k chaos per hour crafting airs(or nearly 12k minds in the same time ammt of time it takes to craft 2k of them), further raising your xp per hour maging by 165%.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Feel free to time it yourself and you will realize just how much more effective your RC and mage training can get in terms of overall xp/per hour and gold per hour.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The shop prices for minds starts at 3gp each. You would even be better off mining ess, selling it and buying the mind runes from the shop over runecrafting them.

You might want to add in what spell you are wanting to use towards the top, having it hide in the middle of a paragraph isnt to easy to find

Good guide, but crumble undead then high alching are the best training spells in my opinion, but its a great money making strat. :thumbsup:

umm i would suggest crafting airs all the way, then sell some of them to buy minds, because crafting minds is much slower than doin airs, just make sure u dont spend more money than u earned from selling that bit of airs

nice , but many people all ready no this

 

 

 

Spell much?

 

 

 

Not a bad start to a guide. I'd suggest pics of the safe spots, times between Fire Strike vs Air strike (as in xp gained)

 

 

 

Also might want to explore other spots, such as the black demon spawn under Edge dungeon, especially since they're particularly vunerable to mage. I trained a pure from level 10 mage to 68 in about 3 days using nothing but air strikes.

umm i would suggest crafting airs all the way, then sell some of them to buy minds, because crafting minds is much slower than doin airs, just make sure u dont spend more money than u earned from selling that bit of airs

 

 

 

 

 

Nice suggestion. Re-read my post above. Crafting Minds is one of the **** I mean most in effecient things in the game. It is a waist of time, resources, and XP.

 

 

 

And it is very cleat to those who spend 5 minutes confirming that fact.

Maybe because I have 80 mage, I just dont really like this method. I did earth strike up to 55 and I thought that was pretty good because you only need 1 air rune. But I think you could develop this guide more and add a few pics add a few statistics and you may change my mind

Love the idea

 

 

 

D bone prices: 1.4kea

 

Blue hide prices: 1.8kea

 

 

 

Mind runes: 20gp ea

 

Air runes: 15-20gp ea

 

 

 

Hm.. please insert a route of banking route. Also, would yanille be a better option for some?!

This is possible but slow and stupid. You will save time and miney failing curses. Also, do barrows 2 times, you will et around 1.5k minds, then buy fire runes from shops.

A common mistake here is to use dragon hide armour

I've never in my 2+ years of playing runescape have seen some one in full dragon hide casting spells. I don't think its common just common for people like you...and people like you have a name in runescape, give you a hint it starts with a n... :roll:

 

mage attack bonus which you need is actually pretty pants.

How is magic attack bonus have to do with 'pretty pants'...? I don't see any word that looks like pants that you could of mis-spelled...

 

 

 

The mods honslty think this is a guide? Mine essence, Craft runes and use them is a guide? I though a guide had to cover a whole subject, not just one part. I guess they feel bad for you or somthing :lol:

Great idea but the way you wrote it makes more like a tip then a guide. 9/10 for info. 3/10 for guide writing.

i have a pure ranger/mage hybrid non member but it still uses the same type of style

 

 

 

you kill hill giants, collect limps and b bones and sell for a profit after rcing the airs and minds

 

good idea

\ I Love Fire Strike!

 

 

 

:XD: I already knew about this and that was how I trained mage! :

 

 

 

10/10

oeps double post

wouldent it safe some time to buy the ess

 

 

 

1.200 essx25gp=30.000

 

and you say 30-40 casts per drag, around 35casts

 

35/2k(casts)=57drags

 

 

 

57x4,5k=256,5k

 

256,5k - 30k=226,5k

 

 

 

i need to buy mystic armour first that will cost 200k

 

than i keep 26,5k

 

 

 

 

 

now the time:

 

2k casts

 

around 3sec per cast and 30sec respawn time

 

35casts per drag

 

35x3=105sec=1min 45sec+30sec respawn=2min 15sec x 57 drags=128min 15sec

 

 

 

 

 

128min 15sec=2hours 8min 15sec per 2k casts

 

 

 

:::::::conclusion:::::::

 

2k casts=57drags

 

262,5k per 57drags

 

262,5k in 2hours 8min 15sec

 

around 487gp per second

 

 

 

w000t?

 

 

 

 

 

if what i say is true this is free xp and 487gp per second!

 

 

 

gimme credits in guide if you put this in!

Hello, some peo

alright guide but only good if your on a real tight budget

 

most people could juss buy runes and still make somewhat of a profit
