Is It Worth It?

[Lions]

I used to bot RuneScape but I haven't in a while and am considering getting back into it, but I want to know if it's worth doing, and how long it will take me to start bringing in the millions (and therefore the profit.) Couple questions-

1) Do I need to be a member to bot successfully?
2) Which skills are best to bot nowadays?
3) Is it possible to successfully earn money from nothing, meaning that it's a F2P account and a free bot? I know that it's possible, but notice I said successfully, meaning that I would actually be earning decent amounts of money through it.

1) Pretty much. Jagex hates F2P bots since they give them no money
2) Runecrafting brings in a solid amount, but mostly at high levels. Mining can be done at medium levels for a decent, steady profit. But the best money making method nowadays is killing frost dragons though they're packed now.
3) Yes, but it's rather difficult. You'd have to set up a huge pack of bots, then work to get membership on one account and use that to fund the others.

Well I don't want to set up a "pack of bots" so it looks like pay to play is the way to go.

Now let's say I start a new account and buy membership, what should I do first? Just start working on getting my mining skill up?

No, frost dragons and not likely

Start off by mining Rune and Pure Ess.?
You'd be able to make about 1M per account if you bot it 10 hours.

even in members today theres not much that'll make you money apart from FD which is losing its value as its being mass botted now sadly

But even so do you still recommend I purchase a membership?

It is worth it if and only if... you can invest $500+ dollars into it overtime

1) Do I need to be a member to bot successfully?

Yes, unless you want <100k/hour gains from each of your bots. Memberships cost 10-12m/month from a trusted pin seller, and you can make that back in less than a week.

2) Which skills are best to bot nowadays?

F2p - Rune Ess/GOP

P2p - PvM such as Abby Demons/Frost Dragons/Green+Blue Dragons
P2p - Runecrafting (Astrals/Deaths/Natures/Bloods)

Those are the highest yielding bots that are the easiest to start up

3) Is it possible to successfully earn money from nothing, meaning that it's a F2P account and a free bot? I know that it's possible, but notice I said successfully, meaning that I would actually be earning decent amounts of money through it.

Yes, but the rate at which you earn money will be MUCH lower if you decide to stick to F2P

Is there any specific advantage from buying membership from a trusted seller on here? If there is I don't mind taking a small chance because it's someone trustworthy, but I was just thinking I would buy the membership myself. I was on their sales page and they take PayPal, or I could just use a credit card, either way I don't need to give out bank info or anything so I don't see a huge problem with buying from Jagex. Or did you just mean those were an option if maybe I didn't have credit card/paypal payment methods available to me?

 

If one of the bots gets banned after you buy via PP/CC, they can/will ban all other accounts that use the same PP/CC.
