    Alching Yew Longs????

    Well i have 40 fletching and i have the money to get it to 70 pretty fast but my problem is would it be worth it??? I have exactly 55 mage so i can high alch but by my calculations i will be loseing money if i high alch yew longs. I left my calculations below. Please tell me what i could possibly make money with yew longs and if there is an item you can make lots of profit by alching with.


    Calculations:

    If Buy Pre-Made from Players:

    Longs: 550k-600k---for 1k longs.
    Nats: 300K
    Cost:850-900K
    Alching Return: 768K
    Lose Of: 82-132K

    Make Own:

    Logs: 300K
    BS: 180K
    Nats: 300K
    Cost: 780K
    Alching Return: 768K
    Lose Of: 12K

    If make own with own supplies:

    Nats: 300K
    Alching return: 768K
    Profit: 468K

    This is the only way i could find profit but it would take so long just to get all the supplies that flax would be faster!

    First if you want to make money with yew longs, buy yews and flax / strings and then just make them and sell for 600each.

    You pay 300+150=450 per bow and get 150 profit.

    Now if you want to alch I prefer making my own natures because it's alot faster and better profit if you're already high rc (91 - double nats) or anyway it's good xp.

    So pay 450 for supplies and make your own nats that will be 550 per long and you'll get 765 per alch so you actually still profit while getting loads of xp.

    For fastest mage levels go to mage arena in the enchanters playground. Use highest enchantment spell you can on balls and don't go for extra points just enchant the same shape. I got from 87 to 90 in 3 days for only few hours playing a day with the onyx enchant.

    Cosmics cost 200 each but you can get them for 150 ea, and if you do bonus shapes only, you'll be slower but you can get 1/5 of your cosmics back by buying them back with the points. Also there are dragonstones which when enchanted give the number of bonus points equal to the double level of enchantment (you get 10 for lvl-5 enchant, 12 for lvl 6 etc..). Now this method is alot faster but costs some money, tho It is cheaper and faster than loosing money by alching.

    It's from personal experience, and I suggest you to buy 10k cosmics if you have 2mil and then just stay in mage arena for a week and you'll get heaps of xp. If you want to go for some armor type then you should get otehr runes and do other minigames in mage arena and you'll earn xp and earn cash too.

    Which ever method you choose, I just want to let you know it is worth getting 90-94 mage because I owned a team of 10 people which were all level 97s in level 2 wildy, multi area. I did farcast but hey it was 10 of them. 5 died, 3 tellied 2 ran away.

    P.S. By mage arena I mean the training arena in alkharid, north of the dueling arena.

    Buy Bowstring         180ea
                                    480For supplies
