Green Dragon Slaying

Slaying Green Dragons on runescape has been an easy way for many players to make money for as long as I can remember. However, there are risks involved and namely the fact that pkers will often hang about the area looking to pick off some easy targets - so always be aware of who is lurking nearby.

A basic inventory and equipment check for slaying green dragons is:

• Glory Amulet
• Anti Fire shield
• Rune/Dragon Legs
• Black Dragon Top
• Dragon scimitar/Longsword or Abyssal Whip
• Boots of lightness
• Gauntlets (cooking/chaos)
• 6 lobbs per trip (keeping bones and hides)

This should see players able to survive the Green Dragons - but does risk running into pkers in the wilderness. The suggested equipment or inventory is not set in stone, but it is best to always consider how much you can afford to replace if you do end up being pked.

Players will be able to bank both the green dragon hides and the dragon bones at Edgeville bank or a bank of their choice. It can quickly add up to large amounts of money and can be used by players to train either their mage, melee or range skills depending on their preference.

All runescape players should note that market prices of items can change and this can affect the potential profit gained from slaying green dragons. However, the price variance is small compared to other methods and if lucky to avoid being pked, then this can quickly raise millions of runescape money easily.

Good Luck

Runescape Bowstrings

Bowstrings in runescape are a member only item and is an easy money making method. The process is very simple and can take a while to gather up enough money to effectively merchant them. However, bowstrings are always in demand by other members who are fletching and is therefore a useful item to stockpile.

There are three methods that can be used to make money in runescape when dealing with bowstrings:

1. Picking and Spinning Bowstrings
2. Using Miscellania for Flax and then Spinning into Bowstrings
3. Merchanting Bowstrings at Seers
   

Money Making Method 1:
The first money making method is the more labour intensive and requires more dedication - although players will gain some crafting experience in the process as well. It simply involves players collecting up flax at the flax field and spinning their own bowstrings at the spinning wheel near Seers Bank.

Obviously, players can choose to sell the flax or make into the bowstring and sell that. Flax can expect to fetch 100gp while bowstrings should easily fetch 150gp each. Each bowsting will add 15 experience for crafting in runescape.

Money Making Method 2:
The second method of making money in runescape with bowstrings is to use the Kingdom of Miscellania to stockpile the required flax resources. When you collect the flax from the kingdom you can spin it into bowstrings and again expect to get at least 150 gp per bowstring.

Players will need to have completed the relevant quests in order to manage their kingdom and have deposited sufficient money in the coffers to pay the workers.

Money Making Method 3:
This method is basically merchanting bow strings. There are many resources in runescape that players can merchant, with some resources returning greater profit as well as involving greater risk.

Bowstring merchanting is simple. When buying the bowstrings the best location is normally Seers Bank or directly at the spinning wheel near the bank. Players who are spinning their flax may sell frequently in smaller quantities and therefore enable the merchanting player to buy at a price lower than the expected market value. The absolute maximum price to pay for bowstrings when looking to merchant them is 150 gp.

Ideally players will sell below 150gp and enable the merchant player to sell in bulk for 180 - 200gp. This can provide a decent profit margin. It is also a good opportunity for merchanters to build up a chain of suppliers for more reliable returns on their time investment.

Wealth from the Wilderness

There are many aspects of the wilderness in Runescape and one of the most appealing is certainly player versus player battles. It can be a way to earn significant riches, but at the same time can end up bankrupting you quickly.

If everything was equal, and you could always rely solely on one vs one battles then there would be a lot less risks involved but the payoff would likely also decrease proportionately as risk declined. This is where player judgement comes into the reckoning and although great amounts of money can be made, if you make a bad decision it can end up being very costly.

Players who PK regularly will normally have had their good days and their bad days. On good days they may gain items worth millions, but on bad days could lose even more. The reason why there are such huge risks associated with earning wealth via PK is there are so many variables:

1. Timing - Runescape is open 24/7 and has players from all parts of the world playing. Subsequently, clans are also globally based and with so many clans in the game, the chances are you may run into a clan at any time.

2. Equipment Choice - There are 3 basic classes of player in Runescape - Mage, Warrior and Ranger. The wrong choice of class to venture into the wilderness could well seal your fate.

3. Food - different food heals different amounts of hitpoints and having a lower healing food could make the difference to winning and losing close battles.

These are just 3 of the many factors that determine how successful you are as a Pker on Runescape. One person cannot always outfox a group and as such many players prefer to PK as a group along with their friends and their clan. Again, this is not a guarantee that you will fair any better as your clan could run into a larger clan and quickly get wiped out before knowing what is happening.

The key to being a successful Pker is quite simple, always be alert, always be prepared and always assess situations before making rash decisions that can cost you and your friends a significant loss. Additionally, you should always follow the number one rule - Never take anything into the wilderness that you cannot afford to replace. Failure to abide by that rule is a sure sign that success in the wilderness will forever elude you.
