OSRS Noob Friendly Money Making Methods
Money making in Old School Runescape is always the most important thing for any player. Some players need OSRS gold to buy better gear or train certain expensive skills like Construction. Others are playing the game just to sell their gold for real money. A small percentage of players just like to be rich in-game and that is totally fine as well.
Today, we will show you the easy and most profitable OSRS Money Making ways. The difficulty of each way scales with its profits, the harder it is, the more money you make. The majority of these OSRS Money Making methods are P2P but we have some F2P methods as well. Following this guide will lead you to the easiest ways of making money in Runescape.
1. Tanning Cowhides (F2P Money Making)
To be able to start tanning cowhides, you will need to have at least 7 quest points or playtime of 24 hours and some gold coins.
1- Buy a good amount of cowhides from the Grand Exchange
2- Start tanning them and sell them back to the Grand Exchange.
The prices of the cowhide is usually 20~30 gold coins lower than the Soft Leather, and the price of the tanning is 1 coin per cowhide. The process of tanning one inventory takes around 50 seconds by using Al Kharid Tannery to Bank route.
You can also tan the cowhides to Hard Leathers if your Crafting level is 28, but it depends on the current prices of the Cowhides and the Hard Leathers. The same goes for the Dragonhides starting from level 57 Crafting, so you should always choose what is best for you in terms of profits.
The gold per hour ratio is always fluctuating and totally depends on the price margins, but you can expect around 45K gold per hour for the Soft Leathers.
2. Spinning Flax (P2P Money Making)
This money-making way is so simple and can be done even while being AFK. To start spinning Flax you will have to reach these requirements:
1- Level 10 Crafting
2- 10~100K gold
This way consists of making Bow Strings by using Flax on the Spinning Wheel. Flax can be obtained through the Grand Exchange, then you can use them on a Spinning Wheel close to a Bank. We would recommend the Lumbridge Spinning Wheel which is very close to the bank.
One Flax costs 3~5 coins, while the Bow String can be sold for 90~110 coins. That means you will earn around 2.6K gold for each inventory of Bow Strings.
By doing that, you can make 120K~150K gold per hour and train your Crafting Skill at the same time.
3. Making Topaz Amulet (P2P Money Making)
To be able to start making Topaz Amulets you will need:
1- Level 45 Crafting
2- Around 400k of gold
3- Red Topaz Crystals
4- Silver bars
5- Amulet mould
First, you will need to buy Silver bars and Red Topaz crystals from the Grand Exchange. Deposit them into the bank and go to the Edgeville Bank to start your Topaz Amulet runs. From there, you will have to withdraw your Amulet mould, Topaz Crystals and silver bars. Then run all the way to the nearby Furnace to combine the topaz and the silver bars into a Topaz Amulet.
The price of the Topaz Amulet will usually be 200~300 coins more than the cost of making one Amulet. So selling the Topaz Amulets back to the Grand Exchange gives you 200~300 coins as a profit per Amulet.
The best thing about this money making way is that you will be able to gain gold as well as training your Crafting Skill.
The gold per hour ratio should be around 140K gold, and the process of making one inventory of Amulets takes around 1 minute.
4. Making Unfinished Potions (P2P Money Making)
To be able to start making Unfinished Potions you will need:
1- Level 54+ Herblore
2- Water Vials & Clean Herbs (it depends on your Herblore Level)
3- Around 300k gold (it depends on which Potions you will make)
This OSRS money making way depends on your Herblore level, the higher your Herblore, the better potions you will make, the more money you will earn. Anything below Level 54 Herblore (aka kwuarm Unfinished Potions) is not worthy.
First, you need to buy clean Kwuarm herbs or higher from the Grand Exchange in addition to Water Vials. Combine each Herb with one Vial of water to make one Unfinished potion of the chosen Herb. Sell the Unfinished potions back to the Grand Exchange.
The Unfinished potion price is usually 100 coins more than the cost of making it, so by repeating this process, you will be able to make around 1.3K or higher gold per inventory. Keep in mind that making better Unfinished potions will grant much better profits.
The gold per hour ratio is expected to be 150K gold per hour for the Kwuarm potions.
