Runescape mining guide: How to make more money & other great tips

a lot of money for it, but only in large quantities. There is also a chance your pick axe might break or you will be attacked by a high level mining monster, but it is definitely worth it.

If you don't want to sell your Rune Essence, you can find an elemental talisman and craft runes for yourself at the altars, and then sell them to mages-in-training. Some mages will pay through the nose to keep their inventory full of runes, for runes are a mage's ammunition in magical battles, and it is up to you to exploit that need to the fullest. Or, you can do half and half: save some of your rune essence and craft some of it into runes, and see which you can sell for more on a given day.

For woodcutting, cut down trees and put your logs in the bank. People practicing firemaking skills will want to buy large amounts of logs. That is really all you need to do, and you will make the most money, but not as quickly as in fishing. Then again, if you want to do some more work, you can stock the logs in the bank, and later make fires to practice your own cooking on. Then, you can sell your cooked goods (adventurers love buying fish and other cooked meats that will restore their health), to make a profit. It's a longer process, but it will benefit you all the same.

You can also make money just by exploring the wilderness and finding people who are about equal in strength for you to kill. Of course, you want to have a strategy to this: work with a few friends of yours. What, did you think this was going to be a fair fight? Of course not! You need to ensure that you can make your kills in the wilderness and stay protected. Another good idea is to lure lower-level characters deep into the wilderness: tell them that you're hunting dragons or taking them to be initiated into a guild, and then slaughter them. Chances are that lower-level characters know little about the game, making them the most susceptible to your attacks.

I hope that you choose to use this as a guide and take my advice to make your character into a living cash fountain. You will never need to raise your combat stats, and the "pure" fishing, woodcutting, or mining character is worth a lot, in rs2 and real money. Go make some gold!
