OSRS Money making method (not a bot)

[Gxngee]

Sorry, wasn't 100% on which section to put this in, so though general would be my best option.
I'm yet to find a bot for this method, and I have searched, so personally I have been doing this manually to make some extra gold on 07 when I've had the spare time.

I was on zybez' 07 price guide looking for something that would be good to harvest/buy and sell/bot to make a bit of gold on runescape. As I was looking through I noticed that wool (just standard wool that you shear off of a sheep) sells for 437 gold each.

So I then went to the sheep pen-farm-thing just by lumbridge castle and started to shear sheep, I did this for roughly an hour (probably between 45-55 mins) and I made just over 100k. Although this is not great money, it may be worth while if you wanted to make a start-up fund to do merching etc. Also could potentially be a good method if you wanted something f2p to do to make money but you didn't want to bot.

I dare say many people already know about this but though I would share it just incase people were starting to run out of money making ideas

TopBot has a script for this.

Ahh thank you! Been looking for one for ages and couldn't find it haha, will check out TopBot in the morning as hadn't heard of that one, the only one I've really used is powerbot

if this works then more power to you, can't see it being profitable however

I only did it until I got 100k and then used that to start merching, but it was an easy way to me to get some decent money without needing any decent stats. I just thought it might be a good method for people, mainly with all level 1's, who wanted to get a bit of starter cash together for armour etc

 

Yeah, a lot of obscure quest items can sell for a surprising amount (wool/ball of wool is one of these).

 

Might work to make you 1M, anything after that will be slow and painful.

Yeah I wouldn't recommend using it as a primary form of gp, but the price of wool is considerably high considering how easy it is to get, found it a fairly quick and easy way to get together a bit of cash, could even be used just to get the money for a bond so that they can then do members quests/items which are worth more

 

Yeah that's a pretty good idea for beginners to start off and get some cash and possibly get a bond like you said and then actually move on to better and more efficient methods.

I've got a few bots running this, and you make 15-20k an hour at most.

I think the price of wool has gone down a lot from when I did it, at the time of me doing it the price of zybez' was accurate, so I asssume either many people found this method at the same time or something else happened. Either way, 20k for an hours work could still come in handy for a new player wanting to get some money for skilling
