Money Making Schemes

Nagesh answers:

This is a very good question with many different answers. I will vaguely touch on some of the different money making methods I have used if you would like more details on any one please feel free to contact me either in game or via yahoo.

…1)Non combat skills

~Fishing~ Sharks, and monk fish, Fishing trawler for Manta ray and sea turtle you can even “free load” although this is unpopular with other players.
~Hunting~ polar kebbits, carnivorous chinchompas (stackable)

~Farming~ Grow Marigolds, ranarr, snapdragon, spirit weed and toadflax.
~rune crafting~ is almost always profitable (You can kill Banshee’s for noted pure essence a lot faster than mining for it ) If your not high enough for laws or natures there are worlds where you can run these for others.
~Cooking~ Tuna Potatoes, curry stew, and pizza’s
~Thieving~ cave goblin wires from Dorgesh-kaan.
~construction~ Make Teletabs via Lectern in player owned house.

~Mining~ coal is slow but pays very well. If you are high enough Adamintite and Runite.
…2) Using Combat
~Dragons using Melee or Range.
Green dragons in the Wildy or in the chaos tunnels,
Blue dragons in Edgeville dungeon, in ogre enclave and there is one in legends guild.
Black dragons with 70+ ranged or Kill them with protect from Melee (this cuts into profit as your using prayer potions though this can be minimalized by using prayer saving armor)
~Chaos druids, Unicorns, Moss giants, Vampires, White wolves, Cockroaches, Jungle spiders, Iban Disciples and Avanasis are all good monsters to fight for profitable drops.

*If you’re not interested in the prayer experience you can always kill and sell the bones. Ourg, Daganoth. Raurg, Fayrg and Dragon, sell best but even regular bones sell well.

** A fast way to big money is PKing but this is a risky endeavor. You can loose just as well as win. Remember there is always someone bigger and meaner than you… So you are liable to loose more money than you win. The more you risk the better your pay off its all on how gutsy you are.

…3) Slayer~ In general Slayer monsters pay well. Consider the food you use an investment. Most assignments drops more than pay for the food needed to fight them. The possibility of receiving a rare drop makes them even more enticing.

…4) Merchanting…watch the prices on the exchange then buy popular items when low and sell when high… There are several items you can buy in shops all over Runescape then sell for profit at the exchange, but as most of these are not stackable this can take several runs. Pineapples, seaweed, vials, bolts of cloth, Sacks, baskets, dyes, tinderboxes and Battlestaves are all examples of items that can be bought in stores all over Runescape and sold on the exchange for more.

… 5) There are several quests that are well worth the effort.

After doing the Throne of Miscellania (and Royal trouble) quests, You can get your kingdom workers to gather resources that can be sold.

And if you do the Hand in sand quest you can get free sand daily.

…6) You can collect Snape grass, Mort myre fungus, Planks, White berries, Potato cacti, Flax (Spin the flax into bowstrings for even more profit),Red spider eggs, Blue dragon scales, and Swamp tar. All these sell well.
…7)Clue scrolls are a roll of the dice but they have the possibility of large large payoffs! Clue scrolls which are dropped by certain monsters more often then others… (I kill Daganoth’s with a cannon to get mine fast ) .
… 8) You can hang out at the Falador drop room… I find wearing a ring of wealth helps (this is controversial)… It’s just up to luck what you can get and how fast you can get it.
…9) One of the newest ways of making money is the recent Diversions and distractions addition… Penguin hunting can make as much as 97.5k a week and Shooting stars can give you 106 k a day in runes coins and ore.
….The thing is the game is designed to take time… Your suppose to have to work for it. Jagex does a good job of making sure there are no quick ways to fast cash! I answer this same question for a lot of people, often they want to know which one is the best method. There is no best method. They are all good solid ways to try out and figure which one YOU like the best (my personal favorite is chaos druids)… Remember the point of the game is to have fun. So find the one you like, sit back relax and enjoy! You can add me if you like (popslantern) I can clarify anything you have questions about (but because I do answer so many questions for others please be polite and patient, as I will be).I also have a quest cape so I can help with questions in regards to those, although I will not do your quests for you. Hope to see you in game!

I do NOT know f2p moneymaking as it is a quite different game.

Blue dragons in Edgeville dungeon, in ogre enclave & there is one in legends guild.
Black dragons with 70+ ranged or Kill them with protect from Melee (use prayer saving armour for better profit)
(metal dragons drop unnoted ores therefore are not as profitable)
~Chaos druids, Unicorns, Moss giants, Vampires, White wolves, Cockroaches, Jungle spiders, Iban Disciples & Avanasis are all good monsters to fight for profitable drops.
*If you’re not interested in the prayer experience you can always kill and sell the bones. Ourg, Daganoth. Raurg, Fayrg & Dragon, sell best but even regular bones sell well.
** A fast way to big money is PKing but this is a risky endeavor I do not personally participate in.Remember there is always someone bigger and meaner than you… So you are liable to loose more money than you win.
…3) Slayer~ In general Slayer monsters pay very well. Consider the food you use an investment. Most assignments drops more than pay for the food needed to fight them. The possibility of receiving a rare drop (some worth up to 17m) makes them even more enticing.
…4) Merchanting…watch the prices on the exchange then buy popular items when low and sell when high. There are several items you can buy in shops all over Runescape then sell for profit at the exchange, Pineapples, seaweed, vials, bolts of cloth, Sacks, baskets, dyes, tinderboxes & Battlestaves are all examples.I DO NOT RECOMMEND MERCHING CLANS AS MOST OF THESE ARE SCAMMERS.
… 5) There are several quests & diary’s that are well worth the effort.After doing the Throne of Miscellania (& Royal trouble) quests,You can get your kingdom workers to gather resources for you that can be sold. Ardougne and Sears village diarys give free pure essence and free flax daily.
…6) You can collect Snape grass, Mort myre fungus, Planks, White berries, Potato cacti, Flax,Red spider eggs, & Blue dragon scales. All these sell well in waves watch the G.E.
…7)Clue scrolls are a roll of the dice but they have the possibility of large large payoffs!
… 8) You can hang out at the Falador drop room… I find wearing a ring of wealth helps (this is controversial)… What you gets up to luck.
…9) Diversions and distractions… Penguin hunting can make as much as 104k a week & Shooting stars can give you 106 k a day in runes coins & ore.
…10) Try not to return to a bank with empty inventory & always pick up stackable items. Even if an items not worth much its worth more than an empty space in your pack. You can always drop an item if something worth more is available.
……The thing is the game is designed to take time (which is why my answer is so long).. Your suppose to have to work for it. Jagex does a good job of making sure there are no QUICK ways to fast cash!

Merchanting- it is by far the best way to make money in the game…Say you spend 1.2M on 100k air runes at 12 gp each (minimum price), then you sell then at either 13gp or 14gp each… Selling them at 13gp would earn you 100k and selling them at 14gp would earn you 200k. All of this with virtually no time wasted. Once you get more money, you can invest in more expensive items and make loads of money that way. Look at the graph of the item and if you think its going to go up then buy and when you think its going to stop going up then sell.

If you feel like making even more money while your items are buying or selling, try avianses…they can make you plently of money as well as train!

Investing in the GE is the best way to make money on Runescape. Once you have enough money you can make MILLIONS a day with no time staring at your character cut trees!

Good luck with your money-making =)

I just Mine random stuff (not copper or tin) and shove it in my bank. Then i wait until each kind of ore reaches 500 or more then i sell it. I sometimes get maybe 5mil depending on what i mined the most.
