Chopping willows advice needed!

[Eon_Laterola]

I was just wondering if anyone knows of a spot for members better than by Draynor bank for fast willow chopping and banking. I need to chop like 20k willows to raise my woodcutting and later my fletching after banking all the logs. Thanks in advanced.

Try seers?

Alright, I dont know how this would work, or if it would be worth it, but why not put it out there

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

alright, so you move your house to taverly, then you go to the pennisula on the lake, where you get the sword of camelot or whatever, theres probably 10 [give or take a few] willows, and no one is ever there

 

 

 

so now your thinking, wait..why did i move my house to taverly? well you run home, go to your servant, give him logs, and tell him to take them to the bank, it may be costly having to pay your servant from time to time, but it seems like a good idea.

 

 

 

if not, try the same place, and just get a bunch of games necklaces, tele to burthrope, bank at rouges den, then walk back

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i dont know, i havent used any of these methods though, so i wouldnt know if they work or not, but ive never really heard of this town being used to willows so i thought i'd throw it out there =]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

good luck with getting 20k willows

Thanks for the tips so far guys. Now I'm also wondering, does anyone have an estimate in hours of about how long 20k willows would take chopping intensely with no distractions at around 45+ woodcutting? (Rune hatchet) If I went with the Draynor method that is, which seems popular. Thanks.

oooohhh...

 

 

 

lemme think here..

 

 

 

its been a while since i had 45 woodcut..

 

 

 

-ponders-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

well hmm..all you gotta do is time yourself cutting one load, then take 20k and divide that by 28

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...whaa???

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

lol, i dunno, i treat runescape as a mathmatical science..and yet i still fail algebra -.-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

anyways, back to this

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

lets say, on a semi crowded world, cutting, no disdractions, lets say it takes a minute to get one load, bank, and get back to willows [just for arguments sake]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

so it take 1 minutes to get 28 willows - we know this

 

 

 

your cutting 20k, so we take 20,000 divided by 28

 

 

 

this is equal to 714, which just means you need to make 714 trips from bank to willows

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

alright, so now we know how many trips we have to make, and how long one trip will take, so multiply 714 trips x 1 minute to cut

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

714 minutes

 

 

 

then we divide that by 60, to make it into hours

 

 

 

which comes to 11.9

 

 

 

so basically 12 hours

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

lets say you play for maybe, 3 hours a day, cutting willows nonstop

 

 

 

4 days

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

=]

 

 

 

hope that helps

Okay, thanks for the help, looks like I'm off to cut all those willows soon. Eek. By the way though, I highly doubt I can get a full load and bank in a minute...

[myself117]

well, just time yourself, [just count off seconds] then just follow my formula for how i got my answer

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

that most it would take, at 3 hours a day would be like, a week? i dont know, i have high woodcutting so i cut willows uber fast

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

speaking of which, thats an unknown variable, because of leveling, you'll get willows faster, which makes my formula kinda useless, its just a guess at that point :P

[Kaphias]

Time yourself at your current level, then find out what level you will be when you are done.

 

 

 

Then get someone that is that level to time theirself, and take the median of the 2 numbers.

 

 

 

From there on out, use myself117's straegy.

 

 

 

It works, I do it all the time.
