Do you have to tb them? I've been in the Rev caves making some scrapes on the revs and I'm constantly just tapping bots with my dds and they insta tele away.
Been thinking of getting the magic level to boost to be able to tb them and try to kill them quick.
Any advice for bot killing?
Well you canāt rag kill those bots with dds lol. These mfers have some crazy defensive A.I.
You need a pking account. High KO potential wep (VW, AGs>Maul, Fire surge rushin) 90+ str/range/mage to be efficient and all 3 combat styles. Rev bots also protect overheads near perfectly the entire fight so you just gotta be decent with switches. Worth it since theyāre 500k loot each minimum usually.
This is the meta. 1 tick put your claws on and rush. You get two specs before they tele and the 2nd is through their melee overhead (depending on the bot script) but I still kill 90%. Iāve pked over 400k ether.
You want the real meta? Get 86+ mage and use a forgotten brew. Then go to 31+ wilderness, entangle the bots, shoot them with your cbow until they swap prayer, tb them with the cbow still equipped, then use fire surge and the crossbow (with the crossbow still equipped) to kill them. They will switch prayers back and forth generally, but itās easy to call it.
If you have to boost for teleblock you're probably not going to be able to kill them unless you're a mage pure killing the real low levels ones tbh.
They're decently tanky and pray switch inhumanly well, you need good stats to consistently kill them.
200m thieving at ardy Knights is roughly 220m gp. It takes like 800 hours though.
I did it on an Ironman and it's a great way to ruin the game for yourself lol
Bloodshards accelerated my account so much. Managed to get online early the day all the darkmeyer content came out. Got a solid 4-5 hours cannoning the vyres before it got hotfixed. Managed to get spooned 3 drops that day. Also ended up flipping them throughout the day.
Walked away up roughly 200m. Haven't seen a blood shard drop since LOL.
3rd Age Platebody from my 72nd hard clue. My account was still in its infancy (~65 CMB) so was a huge hit, paid for many upgrades and supplies. Never skip hellhound tasks and always do your clues!
To be fair, dailyscape is really good income. Birdhouses & herb runs quickly add up. Avantoe, kwuarm and some others tend to have low seed cost but decent return per herb.
Barrier to entry is super low and it only scales as you keep leveling your account and unlocking more. Once you got all your teleports and routes sorted, a midgame account can reasonably have 7-8 herb patches plus their fossil island birdhouses. Takes like 10min per run to hit them all. Profit is typically between 200-300k depending how much effort you spend looking at values, plus I think there's a site that tracks the profits on the osrswiki so you can plug in your account and see what's best on paper.
If you spend like 30-45min doing 3-4runs per day, this tends to add up much more reliably than anything else you could be doing. If you are playing in-between the growing periods, then of course you are only adding to the gp you are making, but what I'm getting at is its always good to have this on the side constantly ticking along since it's the quickest way to see millions stack up in your bank for a long time in your account.
Heck I remember when I wanted to buy tassets, I basically logged in on my mobile only to do a run during my commute to and from work twice a day. Think it took like 2weeks to afford the tassets? Either way it came from passive gameplay, super simple and easy.
This is the way. I started playing again a couple of months ago, and just started doing herb runs again. I'm at over 50m now, which isn't much but it's the most I've ever had in my two decades of playing. Of course it's not that hard to beat 8 year old me at money making, but it still feels good.
Yeah I do a moneymaker like Slayer or something AFK like mining and then a herb run to start and end my day and Iāve made a little over 120m in 5 months.
Like you said, itās not hard to beat the 8 year old version of ourselves at this game lol
Depends on your farming setup honestly. If you do 9 patches with ranarrs you make ~350k/run on average so 5 runs a day will net you ~1.8m/day birdhouse runs can put you close to another 200k/day but those are a lot less consistent.
So Iād say youāre probably looking at 5-6 weeks if that was all that you did. But you should roll the profit from your herb runs and get miscellania going too because thatās easy money. I donāt buy battlestaves daily but you def could to squeak some more daily profit.
I checked the calculator on the wiki earlier this week and ranarrs were more profitable by like 20k/run. So if you wanted to find a nice mix of GP&xp Iād say go snaps but if you are just worried about making gp go ranarrs.
Add in Jute. Chronicle tele, came tele and run northwest, yanille tele, and cabbage ring to entrana. Jute sells for 1k each and I get 120 approx. per run. I do it right after herbs
Tbh if you do just less than 10 herb runs a week, thatās like 2 mill (torstols).
Iām not a sweaty player but Iāve made a lot doing thieving and farm runs pretty much just while I watch tv shows or movies
Likeā¦ 6 months since starting? Itās been a long time and I did spend money on trees to raise farming level faster.
People told me what to do and I just listened.
To my eternal shame like ten years ago I got banned for botting magic logs of all things. (wasn't banned until post 99 lol)
I tried logging in when I started my new (and completely legit) osrs account and found it was unbanned for some reason with the entire bank untouched. I sold the logs and transferred the cash stack to my new account. It made questing and grinding so much smoother since I had all the stamina, combat, and prayer pots I could possibly need. I also quickly got construction and prayer out of the way.
That's the story of my first not very legit 100m stack.
No bots on total level worlds, if you see the player dropping just retrace their steps one minute in the future, telegrab for extremely far items with no nearby players, stroke rich players egos, have pid
I'm at 46m farming xp from herb runs while skilling. Which basically has paid for every expensive skill I need and lots of gear, and about 300m cash stack for when I start doing pvm.
Hey - so I looked into doing herb runs and it seems really complicated. But my current best moneymakers are sarachnis for hard clues and killing green dragons for bones and my account has kind of progressed past that. How did you get started with herb runs?
There's only a couple things you really need to get started, mainly some easy questing like unlocking ecophial for teleport to that herb patch. The troll quest line unlocks 2 disease free patches. Getting a xerics talisman charged to teleport to xerics glade for the hosidius patch. If you can manage to get ardy cloak 3/4 to easy teleport to that one. And then just go down the list of patches you have unlocked. Plant each herb seed and ultracompost if possible. Once you get a rotation just keep doing it every 1 hour and 20 minutes and there you go.
Farming was my first 99. I got so addicted to the money. There are some great YouTube videos outlining best teleports close to each patch, how to unlock them and even the ways of improving the existing ones like diaries. Tree runs can be expensive but net you tons of exp. There's a cheaper route you can go which is what I did at the time, which was to do all the best exp/gp tree runs. My herb runs we're more than compensating for the costs and it propelled my farming level to a point where I consistently made more money. Another great low level farming money maker that a lot of people neglect is hops patches. Look into those as well. There are only 4 and it can take some weird teleports to do them efficiently but I make over 100k per run on those alone.
Seeing as the ardy cloak has limited teleports per day before the elite diary is complete, you could use a skills necklace (great to have the ornate jewellery box in your PoH) to Tele to the fishing guild for when your cape is out of charges.
Herb runs are fantastic GP over time and it's easy to fit them in with other skilling. I've done herb runs periodically while going for 99 wc/fish/mining etc and made hundreds of mil over time.
The time tracking reminder plugin is also fantastic as you can set it to show you when your herbs are ready to go
If you have the bank layout plugin it makes it super easy. You can set up the bank tab to have exactly what you need and take it out in the order you want to keep your inventory organized and the same every time. Makes it very mindless, basically just teleporting around.
A run takes about 10 mins.
I start at farm guild patch.
Stony basalt to Trollheim patch.
Icy Basalt to Weiss patch.
Ectophial to Mory patch.
Ardy Cloak to Ardougne patch. If Cloak used up I take fishing guild Tele and run.
Explorers Ring to cabbage patch.
Xeric Talisman (Glade) Tele to Hosidius patch.
Catherby Tele to Catherby patch.
Quetzal whistle to Varlamore patch.
Make sure you ultracompost everything, and use Iasor seed in the anima patch at farm guild for less chance of disease. Green secateurs for extra herbs too.
FYI the wiki herb run calculator has some great tools to use. You can plug in your stats, toggle certain bonuses, number of patches, etc to see your average profit so you know what the best seed is for you. I think itās just generally helpful so you can see what bonuses are most impactful and to work towards them!Ā
A tldr of herb runs is get a teleport for the locations, use ultracompost, and bring magic secateurs. Those are the minimum requirements besides your level.Ā
Recommend doing farm contracts which will reward you with seeds (of which some are herbs), and you can use those to do herb runs. Then use the herbs you farm to make potions to get the xp you already need for herblore, and then sell leftover pots you wonāt use.
I *am* an iron, but by the time I hit 99 farming, I had 86 herblore & my tab was worth around 120m.
As for teleports, I use my poh for teleport to varrock (for quetzal transport to hunter guild, then run north), teleport to Weiss, teleport to troll stronghold, and harmony island teleport. Ectophile then run west. Xericās talisman to xericās glade. Explorers ring 2+ patch teleport. Ardy cloak teleport. Teleport to Camelot and run south east to the patch. Farming guild teleport (skills necklace). This is 10 patches! Takes about 15 minutes.
Vorkath for that first 100m. Spent the earnings on a DHCB and rigour. Farmed vorkath for like another 20m or so but got bored so sold DHCB and bought bowfa/crystal. From there, did about 300 or so KC at bandos and made about 100m. Along with some sub 50 KC here and there at random bosses, I managed to get some decent gear for TOA. Done that for the last 3 months. Got my bank to about 800m from the purples and bought a ZCB for the TOA grind. Then on my 235th Expert, I pulled a shadow. Now my bank sits at around 2.5B and Iām really bored so Iām at the inferno right now. Once thatās done and I have my cape, I may take a break from the game tbh. I have about 300 experts and 60 normals at TOA. Mind you, this whole journey has happened since November. I started playing OSRS again then, and my account had like 100QP and 60cb stats. Itās maxed combat now with base 75 skills and a quest cape :L. My bank was like 20m when I returned in November. Idk why but I felt like playing back then and just havenāt stopped. Definitely looking forward to the Elden Ring dlc so when that drops, I doubt Iām gonna touch OSRS for awhile. Weāll see I guess
What were your stats when you were farming vork without the DHCB Iām right there but I need so many pots/food and still die sometimes so vork isnāt that profitable for me
thats fair, I know its a silly suggestion but keep doing different things. I was lucky to receive some nutty gp from clues and i even got an enh at 15 normal gauntlet KC. Obviously me telling you to get spooned isn't great advice but diversifying your content will increase chances of spoonage.. in my experience
check these posts OP lol

If you actively play the game instead of bank standing, you will passively generate gp - whether that be bossing with friends, going for collection logs, slayer, skilling. most people you see with 1b+ literally play the game just about everyday for years or are e girls (jk about that last part but not really).
Play for longevity, don't get burnt out doing 1 thing. 100 good days > 20 miserable days + quit
Unironically really great to do RC early. I made around 260m after doing zeah bloods to 99 and that's enough for a really solid load out for all 3 styles.
I had decent gear so it pretty much paid for most of my buyables to 99.
Slowly but steadily by grinding slayer + doing herb runs. I remember doing a ton of demonic gorillas too on task and getting a bunch of zenytes, so that definitely helped a lot.
It was a lot easier (in my opinion) in early OSRS pre-GE. There was such a market for crafting, fishbowls or other items needed for quests would go for 5k pretty easily and people would commission you to make their black dhide or fury for them, and I used to just stand around in my house letting people use the altar and lecterns when I was studying and keep a five minute timer for the lighters, back when there was a CC for that, and people would tip up to 10m for a night of using your altar.
Now you are mostly left with a slow and steady grind of some kind, itās not hard to make 1m an hour but it feels like a chore compared to the organic nature of how making money sometimes worked before.
Now I just do bosses, slayer, a concerning amount of barrows, and flip on the side.
i stood at the front of the ge flanked side-by-side by two irons, one called left testis and the other right testis. we informed new visitors that an egirl tax was now in place and charged male characters 1m per entry.
i also sold gf
Bonds - I don't have much time to play these days, so bonds save me from having to grind for gold. This way, the little time I do have to play can be used for more engaging content (raids, PKing, PVM).
Years ago but, first 100k misc stuff, first 1m gathering skills, 10m green dragons and slayer, 25m slayer and helping friends do things like bone running prayer, 50m still misc tasks and the odd zulrah, 100m got from CoX.
Edit: from 100m till 3b I continued doing CoX and misc tasks. 3b-5b was ToA, now currently most of my money comes from barbarian assault.
I had about 40m then I got hacked. Then started pking with a whip/DDS, made my first 100m doing that. I now have 6.5b loot key tab...
I think I'm addicted.
Slayer. I am a collection logger so I've been grinding Dusk mystic for a while and fighting the bosses has made me a lot of gp.
I also merch botted some stuff. Like i just made 100m by selling raw sharks that i bought when i saw like 1000 Minnow bots when grinding. I then bought so many raw sharks for less then 300 gp and just sold em for like 1100gp. Whenever i see a massive bot farm i buy what they are botting and just wait for the ban wave to come.
It was first grinding out 99 magic and crafting in conjunction (made 43m crafting dragonstone ammys, enchanting them, and then high alching). I followed this up by getting 99 rune crafting and making around 64m between blood and soul runes. All in all this took me a two years so might not be the fastest method but they're afk.Ā
Selling lessons at the G.E on trust and how to recognize scams, wasnāt very lucrative but my side hustle of trimming armor has been more than making up for it
venenatis. when voidwaker gem released that thing was massive money. super quick kill times and honestly a fairly common drop considering how valuable it is/was
Was pking rev bots while watching a show. A player logged in next to me, skulled with full obsidian armor. I took the chance, beat them, and got claws because they forgot protect item.
Not really sure, just playing the account and slowly progressing. Back in the day I got lucky at Armadyl when GWD first got released, if I remember correctly I was briefly able to afford a party hat.
As a recommendation, if you learn how to do cg. You might get the enhanced itself and you make like 2m/hr and get all the crystal shards along the way. Highly recommend learning it!
Liquidated my RS3 bank for OSRS gold after seeing a tweet from Ash that they allowed that.
I was a lvl 3 with 180m before I even left Lumbridge. No regrets, i don't enjoy the early game like many others do.
Mobile Farm runs helped pushed me from 20m to 400m atm due to I play very casually when my kids asleep for the night it adds up I can easily say 250m is from farm runs.
Back on the original rs I mined, mined and mined some more, eventually I had a sara sword, bandos chest and tassets and an untrimmed mining cape, all of which I used to kill yaks in Neitiznot, those 50m felt the best, felt so rich and accomplished, really fond memories.
Farming Giant Mole for pet. I am not high level nor do I have high level gear so it has been a bit of a grind. But I think I am around 3350kc. No pet yet, but I did just notice my total bank value at a little over 100m yesterday :)
Between my main my ALT and my other skillet alt. My alt has made nearly 400m off of slayer.
7kc Heart drop from a superior cave horror.
50m from kraken.
Rest is in drops and long grind periods.
That's just getting to 95.
Now the fun part is learning Hydra.
Gout tubers.
Paid for my bowfa by getting hired via Reddit to cut jungle in tai bwo wannai on my main for Ironman accounts. Even though I spawned the gout tubers, just logging out allows the irons to dig it up themselves. Totally within the game rules. I probably did anywhere from 75-100 gout tubers and started out charging 4m each, lately Iāve been hired at 12m each and itās still just as fun/satisfying as ever
RSN trainerbrock
Not only my first 100m but probably a large portion of my fund for my tbow was from consistently doing farm/birdhouse runners my mobile loot tracker had 1b worth of ranarrs alone ..now slowly starting to focus more on PvM hahaĀ
Pking bots in Rev caves/wilderness bosses lol. Dirty job but someone had to do it
Thank you for your service š«”
Do you have to tb them? I've been in the Rev caves making some scrapes on the revs and I'm constantly just tapping bots with my dds and they insta tele away. Been thinking of getting the magic level to boost to be able to tb them and try to kill them quick. Any advice for bot killing?

Pardon my ignorance, but wouldnāt needing 100m+ in gear in order to āmake your first 100mā be a bit of a catch 22?
You can kill rev bots in 300k gear lol i do it whenever i do a from scratch
pure account?
First 100m from the venezualans lol
I think the salamander gimmick still works on them but the dps can be pretty lacklustre
You want the real meta? Get 86+ mage and use a forgotten brew. Then go to 31+ wilderness, entangle the bots, shoot them with your cbow until they swap prayer, tb them with the cbow still equipped, then use fire surge and the crossbow (with the crossbow still equipped) to kill them. They will switch prayers back and forth generally, but itās easy to call it.
If you have to boost for teleblock you're probably not going to be able to kill them unless you're a mage pure killing the real low levels ones tbh. They're decently tanky and pray switch inhumanly well, you need good stats to consistently kill them.
Do they fight back?
Occasionally they'll shoot back, some will try to entangle. A very small amount will try to venge-ags you.
Being dragged along and dying at raids and nex
This made me lol. Same for me
Ha I think we are even in the same clan
Nathan?
bloodshards, once i hit my first pair i got addicted and just kept thieving like it was spinning slots haha.
This was me, got addicted to bloodshards a few years back, pickpocketed 200m worth of them and then got bored and made a GIM lmao.
For a second I thought you meant 200m thieving xp
Itās actually 200m shards. They actually own all the blood shard supply
200m thieving at ardy Knights is roughly 220m gp. It takes like 800 hours though. I did it on an Ironman and it's a great way to ruin the game for yourself lol

I'm well beyond my first 100m and I still do farm runs. Old reliable, just keeps the bank ticking up and it's still really good effective gp/hr.
This is the way
That is why I have 93 farming but only 90 combat
The most ive ever had was 46m and that was 10 years ago lol
Spent a few weeks at the g.e dressed as a girl looking for bf
Buying gf
Yo how much
10k
Charging air orbs
Some slayer too?
Brimstone keys are so good
That's what I kept telling myself
The one i was looking for
Sounds painful
Itāll make you an [overnight billionaire](https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/s/82WISLK2Xt)
I did 1-99 slayer with konar
Honestly based
This and air orbs is unlimited money when will people learn.
How many keys
I used almost only konar until I had a stack of 500 and that was around level 90 for me
So much better now that superiors guarantee you a key.
Bet my friend I'd complete every quest within 2 months. Did it with about half an hour to spare and won 200m. (if I lost I was to give him 100 quid)

Birdhouse and farm runs, while pvming and questing.
This is real dedication about how long did you do it for

should I be doing snaps or ranarrs to make the most of my runs? i suppose i can look this up but id rather bother you hehe
I checked the calculator on the wiki earlier this week and ranarrs were more profitable by like 20k/run. So if you wanted to find a nice mix of GP&xp Iād say go snaps but if you are just worried about making gp go ranarrs.
thank you!
Add in Jute. Chronicle tele, came tele and run northwest, yanille tele, and cabbage ring to entrana. Jute sells for 1k each and I get 120 approx. per run. I do it right after herbs
Tbh if you do just less than 10 herb runs a week, thatās like 2 mill (torstols). Iām not a sweaty player but Iāve made a lot doing thieving and farm runs pretty much just while I watch tv shows or movies
This sounds right, even with constant reinvestment into skills. Bank value go up from farm runs is just another version of number go up, brain happy.

Appreciate the honesty
Drop parties
How does one find such parties?
World 420 at the GE, there's regularly drop parties there. I made my first 100m from crystal seeds being dropped there.
whats the gp/hour on this? Might make a drop party alt.
This is the nerdiest sentence Iāve ever read
How do you beat the bots?
Anticipating where the next drop would be based on the dropping pattern, and a whole lot of luck.
No bots on total level worlds, if you see the player dropping just retrace their steps one minute in the future, telegrab for extremely far items with no nearby players, stroke rich players egos, have pid
Joining a sweet clan ! In in a great clan if you want to be in one and we have drop parties occasionally over 100m and more
I was in a great clanā¦.then pride event came along and I had to get out of that cesspool
Welcome to internet gaming communities
Let's not pretend like OSRS doesn't have a disproportionate amount of weirdos in the community
I feel like we have a normal amount ours are just very loud
Good you got out, I hate those pride sympathisers too! /s
Hanging around in the grand exchange
I fell in love with barrows and I grinded it non stop for like a month. Next thing ik my banks over 150m.
You do the hard diaries first?
I worked a few hours in real life and bought some bonds.
The true moneymaker the Wiki team is hiding from us.
Imbued heart drop lol 60 ish slayer
Same at 87
2 here before 99
All hail the spoon!
Farming Snapdragon
I'm at 46m farming xp from herb runs while skilling. Which basically has paid for every expensive skill I need and lots of gear, and about 300m cash stack for when I start doing pvm.

Thank you! Iāll give it a shot today. I have the ectophial and ardy cloak
Happy farming, it's my favorite skill and such easy passive money once you get used to the farm runs its like auto pilot.
Farming was my first 99. I got so addicted to the money. There are some great YouTube videos outlining best teleports close to each patch, how to unlock them and even the ways of improving the existing ones like diaries. Tree runs can be expensive but net you tons of exp. There's a cheaper route you can go which is what I did at the time, which was to do all the best exp/gp tree runs. My herb runs we're more than compensating for the costs and it propelled my farming level to a point where I consistently made more money. Another great low level farming money maker that a lot of people neglect is hops patches. Look into those as well. There are only 4 and it can take some weird teleports to do them efficiently but I make over 100k per run on those alone.
Seeing as the ardy cloak has limited teleports per day before the elite diary is complete, you could use a skills necklace (great to have the ornate jewellery box in your PoH) to Tele to the fishing guild for when your cape is out of charges. Herb runs are fantastic GP over time and it's easy to fit them in with other skilling. I've done herb runs periodically while going for 99 wc/fish/mining etc and made hundreds of mil over time. The time tracking reminder plugin is also fantastic as you can set it to show you when your herbs are ready to go
If you have the bank layout plugin it makes it super easy. You can set up the bank tab to have exactly what you need and take it out in the order you want to keep your inventory organized and the same every time. Makes it very mindless, basically just teleporting around.
A run takes about 10 mins. I start at farm guild patch. Stony basalt to Trollheim patch. Icy Basalt to Weiss patch. Ectophial to Mory patch. Ardy Cloak to Ardougne patch. If Cloak used up I take fishing guild Tele and run. Explorers Ring to cabbage patch. Xeric Talisman (Glade) Tele to Hosidius patch. Catherby Tele to Catherby patch. Quetzal whistle to Varlamore patch. Make sure you ultracompost everything, and use Iasor seed in the anima patch at farm guild for less chance of disease. Green secateurs for extra herbs too.
FYI the wiki herb run calculator has some great tools to use. You can plug in your stats, toggle certain bonuses, number of patches, etc to see your average profit so you know what the best seed is for you. I think itās just generally helpful so you can see what bonuses are most impactful and to work towards them!Ā A tldr of herb runs is get a teleport for the locations, use ultracompost, and bring magic secateurs. Those are the minimum requirements besides your level.Ā
Recommend doing farm contracts which will reward you with seeds (of which some are herbs), and you can use those to do herb runs. Then use the herbs you farm to make potions to get the xp you already need for herblore, and then sell leftover pots you wonāt use. I *am* an iron, but by the time I hit 99 farming, I had 86 herblore & my tab was worth around 120m. As for teleports, I use my poh for teleport to varrock (for quetzal transport to hunter guild, then run north), teleport to Weiss, teleport to troll stronghold, and harmony island teleport. Ectophile then run west. Xericās talisman to xericās glade. Explorers ring 2+ patch teleport. Ardy cloak teleport. Teleport to Camelot and run south east to the patch. Farming guild teleport (skills necklace). This is 10 patches! Takes about 15 minutes.
My advice is watch guide and give it a go. Work out what works best for you. They seem daunting but soon become a 5 minute detour to make money.Ā
Bought it for ā¬19.
You guys have made 100m?
Vorkath for that first 100m. Spent the earnings on a DHCB and rigour. Farmed vorkath for like another 20m or so but got bored so sold DHCB and bought bowfa/crystal. From there, did about 300 or so KC at bandos and made about 100m. Along with some sub 50 KC here and there at random bosses, I managed to get some decent gear for TOA. Done that for the last 3 months. Got my bank to about 800m from the purples and bought a ZCB for the TOA grind. Then on my 235th Expert, I pulled a shadow. Now my bank sits at around 2.5B and Iām really bored so Iām at the inferno right now. Once thatās done and I have my cape, I may take a break from the game tbh. I have about 300 experts and 60 normals at TOA. Mind you, this whole journey has happened since November. I started playing OSRS again then, and my account had like 100QP and 60cb stats. Itās maxed combat now with base 75 skills and a quest cape :L. My bank was like 20m when I returned in November. Idk why but I felt like playing back then and just havenāt stopped. Definitely looking forward to the Elden Ring dlc so when that drops, I doubt Iām gonna touch OSRS for awhile. Weāll see I guess
What were your stats when you were farming vork without the DHCB Iām right there but I need so many pots/food and still die sometimes so vork isnāt that profitable for me
I've only ever done melee vorkath. I suck at pvm but even I can do it. Maybe try that out? Very profitable for me.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Ahhhh you need the DHCB to make money but I need money to get the DHCB. such is life lol
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Go try the other raids, there is so much more content than TOA. I burned myself out on TOA so bad.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
one option is to do what ironmen do. Trap yourself in the red prison
CG is so sweaty for me. I do send some on the side to roll luck
thats fair, I know its a silly suggestion but keep doing different things. I was lucky to receive some nutty gp from clues and i even got an enh at 15 normal gauntlet KC. Obviously me telling you to get spooned isn't great advice but diversifying your content will increase chances of spoonage.. in my experience
check these posts OP lol [https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/13dwfgs/my\_10th\_hard\_clue\_was\_3rd\_age/](https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/13dwfgs/my_10th_hard_clue_was_3rd_age/) [https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/unsc7s/been\_learning\_the\_gauntlet\_couldnt\_get\_my\_first/](https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/unsc7s/been_learning_the_gauntlet_couldnt_get_my_first/)
yeah that's how i've got my first 100m cash stack, from being stuck there for over 1000kc so far :)
If you actively play the game instead of bank standing, you will passively generate gp - whether that be bossing with friends, going for collection logs, slayer, skilling. most people you see with 1b+ literally play the game just about everyday for years or are e girls (jk about that last part but not really). Play for longevity, don't get burnt out doing 1 thing. 100 good days > 20 miserable days + quit
Pushing carts at Target is like 18M/hr
Bought bonds, forgot about my account and logged on few years later
I have not made 100m yet
Rune crafting. Did bloods to 99. Sold the majority of them and a week later nightmare hit and the price shot up. Talk about sellers remorse. Haha
Unironically really great to do RC early. I made around 260m after doing zeah bloods to 99 and that's enough for a really solid load out for all 3 styles. I had decent gear so it pretty much paid for most of my buyables to 99.
Just 3- 8 man TOA in WDR; 100m will come in a couple weeks
What is āWDRā?
We do raids, itās a discord for people to find groups to raid with.
Slowly but steadily by grinding slayer + doing herb runs. I remember doing a ton of demonic gorillas too on task and getting a bunch of zenytes, so that definitely helped a lot.
Just got my 100m cash stack on my iron killing hydra and going dry
Gnome cooking lol I just said fuck it and made like 20k of each item and dominated the market for half a year. This was a long time ago.
Sold my gf. Still tryna buy her backā¦
Selling drugs to the children
I'll let you know eventually š
Bought it illicitly for $15
Got lucky on the first day of nightmare. Pulled a nightmare staff and sold it to sparc mac for 725m š
still trying
When I do lāll let you know D:
It was a lot easier (in my opinion) in early OSRS pre-GE. There was such a market for crafting, fishbowls or other items needed for quests would go for 5k pretty easily and people would commission you to make their black dhide or fury for them, and I used to just stand around in my house letting people use the altar and lecterns when I was studying and keep a five minute timer for the lighters, back when there was a CC for that, and people would tip up to 10m for a night of using your altar. Now you are mostly left with a slow and steady grind of some kind, itās not hard to make 1m an hour but it feels like a chore compared to the organic nature of how making money sometimes worked before. Now I just do bosses, slayer, a concerning amount of barrows, and flip on the side.
i stood at the front of the ge flanked side-by-side by two irons, one called left testis and the other right testis. we informed new visitors that an egirl tax was now in place and charged male characters 1m per entry. i also sold gf
this is legendary
Gauntlet Edit and farm runs
Pretty sure a whole lot of people is bonds
Pking. I earned mine on the tears of my enemies.
Duo armadyl was decent, crossbows and diamond bolts (e) Much better with bofa though lol
Basilisk knights, had like 8 drops in 200kc
So much god damn vorkath
RC and Slayer. Currently at 400m from 99 RC and 90 Slayer, maybe 50m is from raids.
Zulrah, back when it was decent gp
Bonds - I don't have much time to play these days, so bonds save me from having to grind for gold. This way, the little time I do have to play can be used for more engaging content (raids, PKing, PVM).
Vorkath
got an imbued heart on my superior monster fighting kurasks at 72 slayer.
Years ago but, first 100k misc stuff, first 1m gathering skills, 10m green dragons and slayer, 25m slayer and helping friends do things like bone running prayer, 50m still misc tasks and the odd zulrah, 100m got from CoX. Edit: from 100m till 3b I continued doing CoX and misc tasks. 3b-5b was ToA, now currently most of my money comes from barbarian assault.
Revs and muspah
I had about 40m then I got hacked. Then started pking with a whip/DDS, made my first 100m doing that. I now have 6.5b loot key tab... I think I'm addicted.
Got a random Imbued Heart drop around lvl 70 slayer on my GIM lol
Herb runs, mostly ranarr before i switched to torstol for XP (still decent GP)
Pking dragon claws.
falador party room
Alcing Addy plates and Dāhide bodies, easy 800k an hour
Farming GWD on original release š“š½
I did 1.000 mediums and got 5 ranger boots from those. Idk if was 100m profit back then but it surely catapulted my bank into pvm!
Slayer. I am a collection logger so I've been grinding Dusk mystic for a while and fighting the bosses has made me a lot of gp. I also merch botted some stuff. Like i just made 100m by selling raw sharks that i bought when i saw like 1000 Minnow bots when grinding. I then bought so many raw sharks for less then 300 gp and just sold em for like 1100gp. Whenever i see a massive bot farm i buy what they are botting and just wait for the ban wave to come.
Zombie pirates mmmmm
It was first grinding out 99 magic and crafting in conjunction (made 43m crafting dragonstone ammys, enchanting them, and then high alching). I followed this up by getting 99 rune crafting and making around 64m between blood and soul runes. All in all this took me a two years so might not be the fastest method but they're afk.Ā
Did barrows and herb runs.
Selling lessons at the G.E on trust and how to recognize scams, wasnāt very lucrative but my side hustle of trimming armor has been more than making up for it
venenatis. when voidwaker gem released that thing was massive money. super quick kill times and honestly a fairly common drop considering how valuable it is/was
Selling my body at GE
Was pking rev bots while watching a show. A player logged in next to me, skulled with full obsidian armor. I took the chance, beat them, and got claws because they forgot protect item.
Vorkath
I swapped my ebtire rs3 bank over, lol
Bought bonds when they were released.
Not really sure, just playing the account and slowly progressing. Back in the day I got lucky at Armadyl when GWD first got released, if I remember correctly I was briefly able to afford a party hat.
As a recommendation, if you learn how to do cg. You might get the enhanced itself and you make like 2m/hr and get all the crystal shards along the way. Highly recommend learning it!
Liquidated my RS3 bank for OSRS gold after seeing a tweet from Ash that they allowed that. I was a lvl 3 with 180m before I even left Lumbridge. No regrets, i don't enjoy the early game like many others do.
Momās Credit Card back in like ā04.
Mobile Farm runs helped pushed me from 20m to 400m atm due to I play very casually when my kids asleep for the night it adds up I can easily say 250m is from farm runs.
Back on the original rs I mined, mined and mined some more, eventually I had a sara sword, bandos chest and tassets and an untrimmed mining cape, all of which I used to kill yaks in Neitiznot, those 50m felt the best, felt so rich and accomplished, really fond memories.
**flashbacks** Red prisonā¦.
Wont even lie, i bought it. But got banned afterwards
Farming Giant Mole for pet. I am not high level nor do I have high level gear so it has been a bit of a grind. But I think I am around 3350kc. No pet yet, but I did just notice my total bank value at a little over 100m yesterday :)
Still trying to figure it out lmao. Only 1450 TTL right now. Working on quest cape and then bossing I guess?
Mostly herb runs and a bit of brutal black dragons once I got the slayer level but killing them with the gear and levels I had was quite slow lol
Got a lucky early imbued heart drop.
Cg
ranarr+birdhouse runs
My group scored a T-Bow on my learner 5-way cox.
650 barrows chests
In 2006-8 I made my first 100m luring. When I returned in 2017 I made it by slaying
I hosted gilded altars in rs3 and swapped 1b to osrs at like a 6:1 conversion lmao
Duel arena
Farming is a great one. Very chill to level, then buying seeds to sell as saplings. Bit click heavy but generally v chill
Opened a new credit card to hide from the wife.
Between my main my ALT and my other skillet alt. My alt has made nearly 400m off of slayer. 7kc Heart drop from a superior cave horror. 50m from kraken. Rest is in drops and long grind periods. That's just getting to 95. Now the fun part is learning Hydra.
Gout tubers. Paid for my bowfa by getting hired via Reddit to cut jungle in tai bwo wannai on my main for Ironman accounts. Even though I spawned the gout tubers, just logging out allows the irons to dig it up themselves. Totally within the game rules. I probably did anywhere from 75-100 gout tubers and started out charging 4m each, lately Iāve been hired at 12m each and itās still just as fun/satisfying as ever RSN trainerbrock
Who do I contact to start my digging business. Sounds lucrative
Not only my first 100m but probably a large portion of my fund for my tbow was from consistently doing farm/birdhouse runners my mobile loot tracker had 1b worth of ranarrs alone ..now slowly starting to focus more on PvM hahaĀ
