Well yeah rsc is like the wild wild west man you gotta get all your own shit or pay a fortune to some guy your lucky enough to run into in w2 draynor bank. But like with prayer here... i gotta kill my own NPCs to get to get the bones and bury em. Like you have to do it all yourself.
As far as Herblaw.... you gotta get a ton of items from the shops, then kill a shit ton of NPCs for herbs aka the chaos druids or w/e to get herbs, takes like 6 months to do that thennnn you can train.
