'Silent's guide to getting 99 fletching
Level 1-15 make 2420 headless arrows. i know this sounds like a big job but its not
. To do this collect (or if you are rich buy) 2420 feathers and fletch 2420 arrow shafts. To make the arrow shafts go to anywhere that has trees, I prefer draynor cut the logs. then Use a knife with the logs and click the button that says ‘arrow shafts’, then click on the feathers and then the arrow shafts to make headless arrows.Draynor -
Then keep going because you need to get a total of 3480 headless arrows. Once you have done this then start making iron arrows, which you can sell for 20-30 gold each. Then its back to the wood cutting again.:'( This time you need another 3980 headless arrows – and make sure you do not buy any arrow shafts or headless arrows or this fletching guide will be of no use. This guide is calculated fairly accurately to the exact XP you need to level the fastest way possible. Once you have made the 3980 headless arrows, it’s time to turn them into steel arrows, you can sell these for about 35 – 45 gold.
You now have a few choices, I personally made all arrows the components of the arrows I could, but if you cant smith the arrow heads or mine the materials for the bars or even if you don’t have the time then your other option, if you are a member, is to go into the Ranging Guild and buy arrow tips along with arrow shafts. I go in there like 10 times a day buy them out of iron and steel. I personally only want fletching experience not any thing else, and it just takes too long to make and smith all those arrow heads. So this is an easy alternative, though you have to have a bit of gold saved up for this and you need to be a member of the Ranging Guild, which requires 40 Range.
Now another option is to buy 16880 willow logs (try not use maple, unless you intend to sell them in free worlds) to make unstrung willow longs. The willow trees in woodcutting is the best way to get XP at low levels because they are easily obtained.
Now for the big money, get yews (don’t do any less then 500 at time, I often did 500 because it was easier to buy and sell them if u wanted to see how much money you could make on them. You can make one to two thousand yew longs by buying yew logs for 300 gold each and bow strings for 150 gold each. Then you can fletch them into yew longs and sell them for 600 gold each. Then it’s basically just repeat the same process, until you reach your desired level.
Well ok now you are one of the greats with level 70 fletching and you have earned respect from me, but if you want to really consider yourself a fletcher then you should make like 8330 yew longs so you can make mage shorts buy magic logs 1k each, I would only buy 100 or so unless you are rich. Then make 8500 yew longs and you now have my full respect and are now able to make magic longs and you can high alchemy them if you need magic experience or sell for 1.3k each, or you can go and sell them one at a time for like 5k, so always keep shorts and longs on hand good luck.
EDIT:I would like to add to this a little bit. If you are going for quick experience or levels then from level 70 all the way to 99 stay with yew longs. This is because there are just not enough magic logs being cut in Runescape to supply everyone, probably largely due to the fact that there are no magic trees in Runescape free to play worlds. Yews logs on the other hand are much easier and faster to both cut and buy.
One more thing I forgot was to point out that I made it to level 82 fletching within two weeks of work.^_^ You can do it quicker as well depending on how much time you have from level 70 and up. I personally do not make magic longs yet, but I am going to be
