All right let̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Å¾Ã¢s kick things off. This guide is about collecting bones in the free to player version (f2p) of runescape (2?). This guide is not just about collecting bones. In fact the name should be changed to ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâ¦Ã¢â¬Å̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ãâæguide to collecting more than just big bones̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬ÃâÃÂ¦ÃÆÃ¢Ã¢ââ¬Å¡Ã¬ÃâÃ

those are moss giants, not hill giants.

Doing a little bit of everything

By far the easiest way is to kill hill giants in the edgeville dungeon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You can get the bbones pretty fast if you can kill em fast.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No offense, but lvl 40s would not get any bbones for mosses.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Not a bad guide, but IMO, this way is slower, and they are fast ways, if you are getting them to sell. Personally I use mossies, but i bury my bones.

Two things: First, burying bones in churches does not give extra xp. Regular bones do give 4.5 xp, so it may seem like you get an extra xp every couple of bones.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Second, fancy/fighting boots give a -1 range attack bonus, so don't use them when you range.

Pure rangers would. In fact they have. But i'll change it to combat in the upper 40s.

its a good guide, never really thought of collecting the big bones, i usually just bury them. and sparticus, the hill giants are always overcrowded so it'd take forever just to be able to kill a hill giant

Retired from runescape. I will be on every now and then though. :)

good guide, though im not sure chain has better crush defence than platebody

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i might try this, instead ill bury the bones cuz gotta get prayer up <.<

i buy all big bones for 300 each. PM me if interested

I really liked this guide. I just scimmed over it so I missed a few things the guys above me mentioned, but it may be wise to bring more than 30 steel arrows when ranging :XD: and, I use fancy boots when I range, I mean...it's only -1..that's not enough to bring down your max hit or anything.. :?

Very nice guide =), I think it very detailed.

 

 

 

Your method is probably the fastest way in collecting big bones in f2p.

 

 

 

I liked your tips about taking the big bones before alch, this way you won't get random. =D>

 

 

 

Never thought about that.

Anyway thanks for all the comments so far...

Sweet guide man!

screenshot041aoj0.jpg

amazing guide but umm i might add you only need 55 magic for high lvl alchemy or however u spell it... :-$ :-$ :-$

Could use a sig or avatar, PM me if intersted in making one.

One detail maybe. Just weapons with Slash-style can cut through Webs.
