Money making skills

From all the skills in runescape, which one is the best skill to train in term of making money?
As far as i know it is the mining skill but well I do believe that the other skills can beat it out.

anyone has an idea?

Combat skills is probably the one that makes you most money. If you say non-combat skills, I'd say runecrafting.

Combat dose make quite good cash although mining can rack in quite alot of gp'zz

Combat for sure! Other than that maybe mining/summoning/herblore

As for skills that can be done on a level 4 account, I would say mining + herblore (making unf pots) is the best gp/hr.

Slayer is the best.

Combat is more money and more fun

Depends if we are talking about Botting or Legiting.

Id say Mining/Hunter/Combat Generally tho.

Botting boring/weird tasks usually is best, the ones that legit players never do/want to do.

I am trying out mining, atm I am collecting Iron ore. But with this case, I am curious about herblore. Can you give me some idea on how could I possible start with it?

I want to do it in a Legit way. Speaking of Combat, is staking good enough to make money?

I used to do herblore, but its not a steady money flow with this market. I ended up losing money with it because I couldn't sell it over a few days.

Is that so, thanks for the info. tbh I was about to search regarding it. But knowing this I am gonna disregard it.

Yea, I don't bot to make money anymore, but I figured mining or herblore would be the most stable money, PvM is best or flipping, both together are definitely best, especially if legitting.

I change my mind, I did some research regarding herblore. Harblore skill is seems great if you have some gold to start with it. How come that you end up losing money?

mind if you share your experience?

TBH i am currently looking at herblore skill, I assume that you already tried it out since you recommend it. How was your experience with it? did you earn some gold?

Profit on herblore is counted based on the prices on GE. While counting with prices of GE, you probably think you would earn tons. Then you realize, you can never sell the pots with mid price.

I guess that I will just stick with mining then. Thanks for the additional info.
I had already sold a lot of ores lately and I already have 50m in stock, currently posting my offers at playerauctions. I hope I could sell this one out.

How many accounts are you mining with? Mining can be good because it can scale up well depending on your setup.

Fletching maples is a solid 80k/hr

Don't stake..

i've won about 200m staking in the last month..
I think i won about 90% of fights..

People like me.. have tailored our accounts and practiced for hours n hours n hours n hours......
Staking is terrible.. unless you are one of the few people that owns everyone.

Indeed staking is quite a harsh and evil method of money making its like a flip of a coin

It's flipping a coin for maybe 50% but if you do the math with your armor, levels,... you increase your chances of winning pretty decent

2 best method: Merchanting & Luring!

I found range to be the most profitable 99. Aviansies are still over 500k g/ph to this day and good range xp.

I know but i'm trying to find a balance between relaxed xp and cash. I don't know about everyone else but I don't like to white knuckle my mouse while I train haha.

Just dont do superheating. You will end up waiting for weeks until the price of Mith and Addy bars goes back up.

There once was a script over on Powerbot for the QBD, but Jagex actually stepped up their game to stop that one.

As for a SIMBA bot: I will say it is bottable, but you will probably never find a public version.

Ah okay I might try to make one when I get the levels. Do you know any other mosnters I could kill before or after QBD?

Grotworm and Brutal Green Dragons are famous (and heavily botted) monsters at around 1m/hr that are much easier than the QBD. As for after the QBD... The only other thing I can really think of are the new Legiones or the Kalphite King and neither of them have ever been botted to my knowledge - yet.

What levels are you looking to fight?

I don't care what level they are, I get max stats hopefully very soon and when that happens I want to fight stuff with nice drops. Preferably something stable so something without 30 other bots running around.

Well... The profitable stuff is the same stuff that is botted for that exact reason. If you do activities that can't be soloed, then you're fairly likely to hit monsters that aren't botted - but then again you'll need to find people to join you.

About the QBD or the Legiones, are there other bots that can "steal" the loot? How much is the profit

No bot or person can steal your loot if you're the first person to attack whatever creature (unless it's a boss on a lootshare world, and even then you each get your own loot piles). It's not an uncommon technique for a person to run around tagging (just hitting once) every monster in an are so bots - or other legit players - will do all the work for them. A lot of people think those kind of people are @$$h0!35 for obvious reasons.

Legionnes are iffy gp/hr due to how new they are, but based purely off their rare item drop and the frequency for it... I think it's possible to earn 8m+/hr farming them with a duo partner (they can be soloed, albeit much harder).
