I don't know if this has ever been mentioned but, when I was walking through Lumbridge, I stopped in to General Store and saw about 48k Willow logs, 28k Oak Logs, and 4K Normal Logs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After this, I thought of something, Firemaking XP. Since they are buyable from the store at 12 each (Willows) I thought I could bring a bit of money with me (100k or so) and just buy the logs, burn, buy, burn. repeat.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This method would be fast, less expensive (than buying willows for 30ea or even Oak for 20 each) and could aid beginner firemakers in gaining fast xp who are short on cash.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Discuss, and Im sorry if this has been brought up already

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

:thumbsup:

yes it is brought up a thousands times earlier

Well, is it a good method or not?

yes it is.

If it was at 50k Willow logs, and 12 gp ea, what amount would they start to increase in price?

At least those macroers that chop, chop, chop all day are good for cheap firemaking with all those logs they sell at the shops. :P

^^ I was curious as to how all those willows got there :-k

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And, where is the closest willow tree to Lumbridge general shop???

Closest willow tree is northwest of shop directly south of the farmers shack where you start the sheep shearer quest.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

As to how all those logs get there, it is most likely macroers who's programs have them sell their logs to the shops instead of banking them.

The closest willow to the gernal store, you just walk east till you hit the river. Also some stores even have large supplies of maples so people think it is one of the best ways to train. The only cheaper way is to cut them yourselfs.

You most likely wouldn't get to that point. It's probablly in the hundreds, maybe around 175 or something?

Yep, I used to use it. Awesome XP. 8-)

I think the price would stay the same actually. With the general store the more there is of something the less it costs.

is that a contest stock they always have!?

Actually, if you cut them yourself, then sell it and use the money to buy it from lumby general store and then you get more logs than you cut :wink:

I smell merchanting...

No, after updates or server refreshes, the stocks in stores will be wiped. The logs come from macroers and other players who just sell their logs to the stores for quick money/clearing of inventory.

*18k willows in bank*

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW

Some guy made a guide about it in the summer called something like

 

 

 

Fast Cheap Fm Xp

 

 

 

its not bad xp, i just dont really like fm

i got 150k xp with 17k gp in two days. =) went from lvl 61 to 66. :thumbsup:

Yes, that's a very good idea. I will try it when it's time for me to reach my firemaking level (It's just 16... :oops: )

it's only really useful when you start wcing yews/mages. otherwise, burn what you cut.

its nice exp at rimmington... cuz they sell yews to it...

Willows are just too slow. I'm burning yews for 99 myself.

ya its really good exp i think i might do it agian really soon for 70 fm
