85 mining worth it ?

from what I've heard, it is one of the best moneymakers ingame. A rune miner should be able to give you more information on this matter though.

Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.

All skills are worth training!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mining rune is risky business. Might be worth the trouble, but if you want to make money from mining, you'd better mine iron or coal, because you can mine it looooong before lvl85.

You can make 1-2m per day with 85 mining. Considering that 100 ores= 1.2m, it's a proftitable skill, yet very boring to train quickly. To sell them, go to world 1, east fally bank.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

P.S. To mine the ores, you have to world hop to mine quickly.

I'm sure it's well worth it if you're in a good time-zone.

Try checking out that guide. I only skimmed it, but it certainly worked well for the author (rune mining guide).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Personally, even if it weren't good money I'd get it anyway. You're pretty close already, I almost see it a bit silly to not finish it off :P At least that way you know that if you ever decide to get high smithing as well, you can mine your own rune :P \' :thumbsup:

If you're f2p, do it. I suggest you either pay someone to scout for you so that you don't get stuck between a pker and the rock. Either that or create a level 3 and log it in at the rune rocks first to see if there are any pkers. If it's clear, the switch accounts and mine away.

 

 

 

This is actually really good money according to my friend. Supposedly you're supposed to be able to get enough cash to buy a santa after a week :wall: :wall: :wall:

Definately get 85 mining.. it makes me great money. Sure, the ores take a long time to respawn.. try world hopping!. Besides if you are at 81 get it to 85 just to look good :P

Mining rune ore is good for the following reasons:

 

 

 

No macros

 

 

 

High Profit: 11.5k to 12k, 100k-200k per hour from my exp

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rune mining is bad for the following reasons:

 

 

 

At least 10k+ players already can mine rune.

 

 

 

Rune ores respawn takes at most 20 mins to 10 mins (estimates)

 

 

 

Pkers, I'd say roughly 1 every 5 to 7 world changes and you'll find one

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I would strongly suggest not to powermine. Why?

 

 

 

Basically you're wasting a lot of ore for nothing.

 

 

 

It is roughly 3.2 mill xp to get to 85 mining from lv 1.

 

 

 

As an illustration, in terms of coal, that's 64k coal

 

 

 

would can sell for at least 11 mill easily.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Personally I only powermined for the last 20k xp.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When you do get to lv 85 mining, use 2 scouts, preferably lv 40+

 

 

 

because there are even low lv pkers looking to kill scouts. Most players

 

 

 

recommend placing them in the maze across from the ores, which is bad

 

 

 

because pkers know this already. For the miner, bring food and bind runes. For armor i would suggest g dragonhide, gives u some armor and light enough to run away. Note g dragonhide will reduce the chance of successfully binding pkers.

its definitely worth it for money, but depending on ur luck with pkers, you could lose a lot especially if you're full with rune ores
