Very nice Thanks! Perhaps i'll get 92-99

 

Good luck with that

 

No such thing as quick and cheap, making pots is no where near 3k per hour try 1.5k at the most, have fun with that.

 

ok. ye the guide isnt bad nor good just to point out some things.. u say there making those potions is 2000 hours aprox.. and then u say its 14 days of playing... 2000 hours = 83.333 days tbh... i seriously doubt any1 is never ever gonna go for that 99 herb with method u mentioned above. i think even cleaning higher lvl herbs is worth more xp

 

He means you can make 2000 potions per hour.

I might do this, if attack potion would sell for mid or close to mid.

 

You obviously don't know what quick is for a 99 then. Cleaning herbs = 3k an hour. L2read, thanks.

 

umm i really like this guide and i may even test this out

if i do end up testing i will try to remember to come back and say somthing ....

 

sorry for double post but 3k xp a hour is not that bad for just lvl 46 i have a cheap herby bot so maby thats why i dont care lolz


*edit put in bid for 50k guam as a test like 5% under market hoping it buys

 

Great guide! +REP to you man

 

Thanks all!
Good luck shortperson
It's not 3k xp and hour you can clean 3k an hour, so cleaning a guam gives 2.5 xp so you would be getting 7.5k xp an hour. Since your using a bot it might be slower, so somewhere around 6-7k xp per hour most likely.
Also if you can make 1.5k attack potions an hour, they give 25 xp each, so thats 37,500k xp an hour, again it will be slower so probably 25-37k xp an hour. Which is still pretty good.

 

great guide!

 

My bot cleans over 10k/hr, and I get 80k+ EXP/ hr from using it.. XD

 

Damn, son! Thats things on crack! You'll have in no time!!

 

I just bought the herblore bot from rsbots, once i get some more gp's i'll be posting some pics!

 

you forgot to mention about the unf potions
(if other ppl has commented about this then ignore this , i cba reading other ppl comment lol)

1.8k unfs per hour manually and like 2k potion (cleansing scroll)

 

You don't get xp for making unfinished potions.

 

Very nice guide. been awhile since I've seen something like this

 

I think this calculator is somewhat relevant to your guide:

http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Calculators/Herbs

It looks like you can make a profit cleaning herbs for ~10-13xp each. That's both faster and less expensive than making attack potions.

Maybe you can make attack potions until you reach the level required for a herb that's good xp to lean like dwarf weed or torstol. Also requires more starting cash.

 

Fuck all The h8ters Nice guide man!
