This guide is for free players who wish to profit from combat. As a general rule, pick the strategy which requires the least consumables (food and potions). Remember that consumables cost money and time, and have to be accounted for when using combat to profit. Part of profiting through combat involves the speed at which players can kill the monsters.
| Effectiveness | Requirements | Details |
|---|---|---|
|
***** | 10+ Combat (higher is recommended), Port Sarim and Draynor Village lodestones activated, Pirate's Treasure quest completed (optional but recommended), 25+ Dungeoneering (optional), 30 coins per run | Imphide can be sold to the Grand Exchange for 365 coins, and is a 100% drop from all imps. A plentiful source of imps can be found in the Karamja Volcano resource dungeon. Teleport to Port Sarim, pay for the trip to Karamja, enter the volcano, enter the resource dungeon (if you cant enter the dungeon many imps can be found on top of the volcano near the rivers of lava), kill Imps and fill your inventory with imphide. Home teleport to Draynor Village, bank and repeat.
|
|
***** | 10+ Combat (Higher is Recommended), Completion of Blood Pact, and access to Lumbridge and Edgeville from the Lodestone Network | Corpse Spiders can be killed in the Lumbridge Catacombs. Spider silk can be sold at the Grand Exchange for 350 coins. Home Teleport to Lumbridge, then run South and enter the Lumbridge Catacombs. Kill Corpse Spiders and fill your inventory with Spider silk. Home Teleport to Burthorpe, run to the bank chest, and repeat.
|
|
***** | Beginners OR +5 combat skills | Chickens can be killed in Lumbridge farms, or in the farm south of Falador. Raw chicken can be sold at the Grand Exchange for 203 coins, and bones can be sold at the Grand Exchange for 90 coins. They also commonly drop 5 or 15 feathers that sell for 15 coins each and are used for fly fishing.
|
|
***** | 15+ combat | Cows can be killed in the Lumbridge cow fields. Cowhides sell for around 310 coins each to crafters and you can bury or sell the bones. Raw beef from the cows sell for 101 coins each, but also can be used to gain cooking experience. You can also tan cowhides into leather, which sell for around 288 coins each, or hardleather, which sell for 403 coins each. In Burthorpe there is another cow farm. Tan the hides at Jack Oval into leather or hardleather and bank it at the Bank chest.
There is also another cow field just north west of the Lumbridge castle, north east of Draynor Village. There is a male NPC in the cow field called Beefy Bill, who will bank your raw beef and cowhides for you. There is, however, a catch. He requires that you give him 10% of what you wish to bank. (Although, with the activated Ring of Charos, he can be charmed into banking them for free.) Another downside, is that you cannot request him to bank anything except for raw beef and cowhides. Despite the downsides, this is much easier than using the Lumbridge cow field, as it is much easier to bank your raw beef and cowhides.
|
|
***** | 20+ Ranged | Karamja monkeys on Karamja can be killed for their bones, which can be banked quickly with cabbage teleports. Each set of monkey bones will sell for 406 coins. A full inventory of 28 monkey bones is worth 11,368 coins.
|
|
***** | 40+ Combat | Varrock Guards can be killed directly outside Varrock West Bank for Grapes. Kill the Varrock Guards on the ground floor, then climb the ladder and kill the Varrock Guards on the first floor. Collect 27 grapes, store them in the bank, and repeat. Each bunch of grapes is worth 1,259 coins.
|
|
***** | 25+ combat | Cockroach drones found in the Stronghold of Player Safety can drop air, water or fire runes, noted coal (two at a time) which sell for 544 coins each, Limpwurt roots at 1,026 coins each, Red spiders' eggs sold at 679 coins each and uncut gems from sapphire to diamond.
|
|
***** | 65+ combat | Hill giants in the Edgeville Dungeon are a common training/money making monster, as they drop big bones, which sell for around 441 coins each. They occasionally drop limpwurt roots, which sell for about 1,026 coins each. Hill giants also have low Defence so they are not difficult to kill. However, if you have at least 20 Dungeoneering, you can enter the Edgeville Dungeon resource dungeon to kill Hill Giants, which is far less crowded, as well has having 4 Limpwurt root spawns.
|
|
***** | 75+ combat | Hobgoblins found in the Edgeville Dungeon can be killed for limpwurt roots and grapes. Alternatively, you could go to the peninsula near the Crafting Guild where a group of hobgoblins wander about. Limpwurt roots sell for 1,026, and are a common drop from the Hobgoblins. Each bank trip with 28 limpwurt roots results in about 28728 coins. Although limpwurt roots do not stack, the decent experience and proximity to a bank make this an attractive option for medium-level players.
|
|
***** | 80+ combat | Moss giants can be killed in Varrock sewers. They have several good drops, including Law runes, gems and Big bones. The Varrock sewers are often crowded. If you've completed the map for Dragon Slayer, you can also fight Moss giants on Crandor Isle. This location is often less crowded than the Varrock Sewers, and is not a multi-combat area.
|
|
***** | 80+ combat suggested | Chaos Dwarves found in the Wilderness can be killed for muddy keys, a very common drop from them, mithril bars, and bones. Usually uncrowded in most worlds (as it is in the Wilderness), this spot provides good experience, although food will be required.
Muddy keys sell for 3,122, and are a semi-common drop from the Chaos Dwarfs. Each bank trip with 28 muddy keys results in about 87,416 coins. The mithril bars could also be sold for 1,492. Players should be wary, since they can hit up to 63 quite often, and since the Wilderness is a PVP area.
|
|
***** | 100+ combat | Cockroach soldiers can be killed in the Stronghold of Player Safety for the valuable items they drop, including various rune equipment mostly Rune scimitar, Rune sq shield, Death runes, 3 Mithril ore noted, 1 Adamantite ore noted and Law runes. These can be sold for a fair amount of money. Keep in mind, though, that Cockroach soldiers have a fairly high defence, and are not recommended for level 30-players. They are easily killed by earth magic and a full inventory of food is all that is required to train on them safely.
|
|
***** | Very high combat skills, suggested at 95+ in melee skills, 110+ combat | Revenants can be killed in the Forinthry Dungeon for the valuables that they drop, such as Corrupt dragon equipment and Ancient artifacts. They can constantly drop coins which can add up to cover some of the losses on the trip. Keep in mind though, players should be careful of PKers as they reside in the deep level 28-32 Wilderness, and players can potentially kill you. This is not recommended for low level players as they can hit extremely hard and can heal themselves faster and harder than a player of their combat level.. |
