~!~ The Guide to 99 Construction ~!~ Mini-Update

:thumbsup: Did you know? Construction was going to be named Carpentry. :thumbsup:

Hello, and welcome to The Guide to 99 Construction. In the following content I will explain numerous ways to reach 99 construction.

UPDATE: Guide to running a construction company is now more thorough.

[hide=From 1 - 15]

Requirements

25,000 Coins

Saw

Hammer

Axe

Nails

First of all you will need a house. To purchase your house pay 1,000 coins to an estate agent in their office at the following cities: Ardougne, Falador, Seers, Varrock

When that is completed go to Varrock and cut down 84 regular logs and use your coins to turn the into planks at the Sawmill (formerly known as the lumberyard) - it is northeast of Varrock. While you are at the sawmill also buy about 550 nails - any type.

Then, head over to your house in Rimmington bringing your saw, hammer, and 26 planks. You will be in your garden. Go into the parlour (the room next to the garden) and start to make bookcases and chairs. After that, remove the bookcases and chairs and remake them. Repeat this step until level 15 banking at Falador.[/hide]

[hide=From 16 - 30]

Requirements

55,000 Coins

Saw

Hammer

Axe

Cut about 185 oak logs and turn them into oak planks via the sawmill. It will cost about 46,000 coins. Make a workshop next to your parlour and start making repair benches the same way you made bookcases and chairs, but this time you don't need nails. Doing this will get you to level 30 and you will be ready to move on to the next step.[/hide]

[hide=From 31 - 50]

Requirements

150,000 Coins

Saw

Hammer

Axe

At this level, I suggest you go to Ardougne. Once here go to the Servant's Guild and hire a cook, but first you must build two bedrooms - one for yourself and one for your butler that you have not yet hired. Both bedrooms must have a bed. This cook can run logs to the sawmill provided you have the cash. Go outside your house portal - should be in Rimmington for best results - and cut as many oak logs as you can hold. Walk inside your house and ask your cook to run the planks to the sawmill, when she returns use your saw and hammer to make furniture with the planks. Repeat this multiple times until you have level 50. The cook will require a fee of 3,000 coins every few runs, but in my opinion it's worth it.

An alternative way to get 50 construction is to just buy the oak planks from other players or run the planks yourself. Oak planks are about 450 - 500 coins each and give 60 experience per plank.

Once you have the desired level move on to the next step.[/hide]

[hide=From 51 - 70]

Requirements

2,900,000 Coins

Saw

Hammer

You can now hire the Demon Butler! His fee is 10,000 coins instead of 3,000 \. From now until 99 you may want to do Oak Larders, but this is NOT the cheapest way of experience! Many people think it is. It is actually the armour stand in the skill hall. The requirements for this stand are 88 Smithing (99 Smithing for best results) OR White Castle Wars Armour (Yellow Armour for best results). This can reduce the 120M to get 99 construction to about 70 ÃÆââââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ 85M. Doing oak larders will bring in 150K - 200K experience per hour and the armour stand will bring in about 100K experience per hour, but there is a 40M Coin difference.[/hide]

[hide=From 71 - 85]

Requirements

8,000,000 Coins

Saw Hammer

71 Construction, very nice! Two other methods that work are making a mounted glory and removing and repeat because you get the glory back and its more experience (just like the armour stand), but for even better experience do the same as the mounted glory except instead of it use a Legends Cape. Both require the glory amulet or legends cape and 3 teak planks. THESE TWO METHODS CAN BE DONE AT LEVEL 47. Another alternate way is oak doors in your dungeon, 74 construction required. It brings in a whopping 200K - 250K experience per hour.[/hide]

[hide=From 86 - 99]

Requirements

100,000,000 Coins

Saw

Hammer

At level 86, I suggest you start a construction company (see below) for maximum profit and fairly fast experience. It will get you to level 99 in a couple months OR you could do oak larders OR you could always do the armour stand (requires 2 planks and the armour to make).[/hide]

[hide=Running a Construction Company]

Requirements

15,000,000 Coins

Saw

Hammer

This can be very hectic, but at the same time very rewarding. To run a successful company have a good range of flatpacks from oak furniture to the best things you can make. I suggest that you have combinations such as a mahogany bedroom set (having all the things flatpackable in the bedroom made in mahogany). It may also help if you get a sponsor. The idea behind this is to make some profit, but at the same time be the lowest priced company on most items. For example, if you were selling an opulent table and the materials cost 1.25M altogether, and the best price you should do would be 1.26 or even 1.27 (DISCLAIMER: I just used an opulent table as an example, prices may be off!). Remember, even if you don't make a huge profit, you will gain construction levels. NOTE: The higher your construction level, the higher amount of people will buy from you.[/hide]

not bad, 8.5/10 for wen u get pics

w00t first post :P

nice guide :thumbsup:

I plan to get pictures soon. \

This is fine ... but i put in 3/10 cause you forgot nails

:P

I am OFFLINE, but please still post! :-# :ohnoes: :-#

EDIT: I will be off and on for the next couple hours.

Just wondering, you put the legends cape thing for over 71, does it matter? Why can't I just do it at a lower level? It isnt like I get better with it, or does it? :-k

I was spreading out my methods but yes it does work at level 47. :P

a lot better now that it's finished :D

You should also add prices if you buy the planks instead of make because I doubt any one who has 99 con cut and make all there planks....well they might have.... :shock:

Explain the Construction Buisness alot more then it'll be just about perfect.

9/10 tell how much xp you get from making the armor stand and the other items

well it's a "no-duh" kind of guide nothing new or interesting but at least u tried!

Nice guide. I used oak larders from 33 to 55, but was not aware of any other training options. Perhaps give a direct comparison with numbers and tell us whether oak larders or mounted glories give more exp per gp.

8/10.

I have a suggestion: get 99 construction, then write this guide.

8/10 need pics :

very nice guide! 8.5/10

I just made oak larders from 69 till 99

it's about 150k-200k exp per hour

perhaps you could add the exp per hour with your methods?

Thanks for everyones suggestions! I will add them soon!

:boohoo:

Nice guide, shows alternate methods, if I did it however, I would definitely use larders because I can make that cash back.

Thanks. 8-)

interesting guide, pretty good but can use a little work.

What I would like to see is a list of construction items that give more exp per plank than normal, such as the mounted glories or armour in skill halls, and then a chart saying how much doing that saves you to 99 and how much longer it will take.

I know it sounds kind of big but my friends say im an overacheiver so I guess thats where this comes from :-$

besides that great guide 8/10 (could use some pics) :thumbsup:

not a bad guide, BUT, why people make these 'how to get to level 99 blah' when they dont have that 99 i dont understand
