Full Version: Runecrafting in F2p

I, not being a fan of Runecrafting only have level 40 right now (eep.gif) I currently made a switchover to f2p (like otter) and I decided that one of my first goals would be to get 50 rc so I can finally get the robes I see all over Varrock.

Up until f2p I was using the fire rune method with dueling rings, but now in f2p I was planning to get to 50 with earth runes using the FoG gloves. Before I invest my weekend in getting the 5 or so pairs of gloves I would need to achieve 50, is earth runes the way to go or is there a faster way?

Thanks

You're pretty much limited to airs, earths and waters if you use FoG gloves. Earths would be the fastest, and it would help a lot if you teleported to Varrock from the altar each time. Waters would be a good choice in P2P, but you can't use glory teleports in F2P. Airs are faster if you know runners will be there, but that can get expensive if you balance out the trade limits to train effectively. If you walk/run to the bank each time, then it's not as good as the other 2.

When I was a free player, I mostly did earths. I would highly suggest earths, you would be getting more experience per run. However, if the World 16 air running is still available, you might want to check that out; see what works for you best.

Oh sorry, the Runecrafting robes from the Great Orb Project.

I would go for Earth Gloves. I could be getting 13k/hr with that method in F2P (Did it from 63-66 eep.gif), and use the Explorer Ring for a free 150% run energy H.gif

The w16 airs is a joke everyone is advertising x7-9 airs, even though they have <30 RC, it's quite a fluke if you can get people to come to you, but if you establish a runner base, that 30k [i]might[/b] be worth doing.

Any other method I discarded for various reasons, considering Air running yourself is less xp per hour than earths, thanks to the less xp and very similar run times.


The only bad thing about using Earth gloves is that you can only get 1 at a time, but the FOG shop is probably closest if you get another pair on your way back from the Earth Altar.

Lolwut.

I did Fast Airs early this year for some quick levels and it was effective and quick. This was when the trade limits were in effect, so its still a good method.

Oh I forgot. If you want to dish out some cash for your runecrafting levels, I suggest you buy body talismans and plain tiaras. Then take 14 or so of each, and combine them for exp as your trip.

Body Tiaras give 37.5 exp per tiara, which is 18.75 per inventory slot (two slots per tiara) compared to 7.5 for body runes. Or you can do Earth Tiaras for 32.5exp per, which would be faster.

But again, that is doing it at a loss, alot faster.

Old topics. No good.

For relevancy, anyone over level 50 RuneCrafting should use this guide:

Awesome method.
