Runescape Money Making Crafting – F2P

If you’ve read any of my other RuneScape guides you know that I like to make money while training. I will go with a slightly slower route if it means making a few mil rather than spending a few mil. Crafting is no exception. I always see people saying do leather chaps. It’s fast and you’ll be done before you know it. Sure the experience is quick and you can just stand next to a bank while training, but it costs lots of money. Leather costs 181 gold each and will give you 1 leather chap (not including the price of thread and needle). That leather chap sells in the GE for 5 gold. Losing 176 gold per chap is not worth it to me. Let’s look at a better way.

I started training crafting while training dungeoneering. After I would clear a floor I would head back to the merchant before ending the floor. I would buy protoleather and make as many protoleather bodies as my cash allowed. It varied per floor of course, but it was free and relatively quick. Just buy some thread and needle, then by 20 or 25 protoleather depending on your free space in inventory. Craft them into bodies and sell back to the merchant. Repeat over and over. You could do more expensive leather or yarn, but the protoleather bodies give the most exp per coin.

The downside to dungeoneering training is you don’t get any profit. This is where my old friend clay comes in. I like making pie dishes out of clay in east varrock. Soft clay costs 122 gold each and a pie dish sells for 175 gold in the GE. That’s 53 gold profit per soft clay. To earn more profit you can buy pastry dough for 196 gold in the GE. Add it to the pie dish to get a pie shell and sell it for 645 gold in the GE. That’s a profit of 327 per soft clay, not too bad. You could make it even higher by purchasing clay and softening it yourself, but that takes a bit too long for me.

So head on over to east varrock and get to making pie dishes. Members make pies often to train cooking so they will always sell. Hope to see you all there.
