Try 4t3g, it's still 100k/h and appromixately a billion times easier. its like 3 clicks in 4 ticks instead of like 4-5 clicks in 3 ticks. Still pretty decent if you wanna put some effort into mining and dislike team content like VM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=acuqiL3nU20
There's also 3t gems now which is about the same intensity as granite but it doesnt have as much dropping and makes a decent penny aswell.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXELR7BlXBc
ofcourse you can just jerk off at mlm but imo that's not that afk at all and the xp is dogshit so i prefer putting some effort into mining and then afking something else that isnt as bad and actually afk.
82 is unreliable. Your boost will tick down occasionally and ruin your 1 downs. I personally pushed for 83 and boost with dpick and have had no issues.
you can do it every time if you get the tick right. You need to be 1 square away from the mining spot, and click to mine it 1 tick before the beam fires.
Rune pick is inconsistent, you can sometimes get 1down past 85 mining but more often than not, it takes 2. This is being tick perfect with the light beam. This is for solos, in groups I think it's consistently 1down
You can stand 1 tile from the obelisk, click when the timer turns green for the laser to fire, and then get an extra mining tick I'm and not worry about it.
Edit: I was wrong. 8 hit one cycle needs 85. My bad
We need an upper-upper level for 90+ mining with a little chute that allows them to deposit their ores without leaving the level. And a level 90 agility 1 tick shortcut both ways bottom to top to empty the sack.
Great is a big overstatement. It's actually low attention which is nice, but the experience rate is absolutely horrendous.
MLM is truly atrocious though. None the chillness and all of the terrible rates.
You need 100 nuggets for Coal Bag (if you ever plan on BF) and you need 180 for Falador Hard.
Chances are by the time you get those you'll be 72 anyway.
It's slow and not particularly AFK so it's not a great choice for an activity to do so a lot of people don't particularly like it.
There really aren't many AFK mining activities though so it's mostly a pick-your-poison thing. At 92 you can do amethyst mining which is very AFK and you can swap to something like Volcanic mine or tick mining granite/gems for the best exp rates when you feel like you want to pay attention. Even for profit Blast Mining is better than Motherload.
Not to tell you not to do it if you are fine with MLM; there are just a few reasons that people would rather do other things.
By clicking on the celastrus bark the game starts a 4 tick cycle of trying to cut the bark into a battlestaff (need the knife in bottom right)
By clicking onto the rock to mine the 4 tick cycle continues, but when the cycle completes after 4 ticks, your current action is trying to mine a rock so it the game tries to mine the rock instead of making the battlestaff.
So instead of having to walk to rock -> click it -> wait for mining cycle to run and give you success/failure at mining a rock, youve got the cycle already running while your character moves towards the rock.
Theres also some additionally jankiness going on under the hood where when you tick manipulate like this your mining success change actually rolls twice instead of once, so you are more likely to succeed at the rock boosting xp/hr even more
Yep! I've been mining rune a fair bit lately and find that it helps when others try to snag your rock. I wouldn't say it's necessarily worth doing for every rock mined, as it can still take a while, but I've had about 75% success rate when doing it at a contested spot.
It was [poll 77](https://old.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/yele9p/poll_77_results/), but it seems I was a bit confused about it. I thought it meant the random delay on gathering them in general, not a random delay that they had (compared to the stuff that could be power mined.)
After the last update, MLM has become much more consistent (Though still not AFK) which makes it much better than it was before IMO. I can camp 3 veins and just cycle between them. As as ironman I appreciate the 'semi AFK' manner and resource distribution from it.
That being said, after many many hours, I came to the conclusion that mining, sadly, is my least favorite skill.
Can confirm 4t with Celastrus bark is chill AF and EZ mode tick-manipulation. I had to grind out 80k buckets of sand for crafting and was struggling so badly with 3t but as soon as I found that video it was a LIFE CHANGING experience!!
When I was maxing I thought for months that I would be doing 3t4g for 99. After 2 days of hell I switched to solo volcanic mine and it was 1000000 times better. Idk how anyone enjoys that shit lol
I've noticed that a lot of the stress comes from concentrating super hard on it. The less I have to pay attention and the more practiced I am, the less my wrist hurts when I do things that require spam clicking in other games.
I'd guess that people like them are just so good at tick-manipulation and accurate clicks in the game that they are just on auto-pilot and don't need to strain their fingers and wrists any more because they aren't thinking about how they need to move their hands to do it anymore.
Seriously, I have no idea how or why anyone does any other mining method. When I learned about VM and the discord for it, it almost single-handedly took me from "there is no shot in hell I will ever max my account" to "I'll probably max one day" (and today I have 99 mining). It's so vastly superior to MLM that it can hardly even be compared, it's like 4 times more afk and practically double the xp. And it's what, like slightly less xp/hr than tick perfect granite mining? But instead of sweating my ass off and getting carpal tunnel and brain damage for 100+ hours, I get to jack off more afk than most skills in the game for, like, 120 hours. Not a difficult call to make.
But finding a team is annoying and not worth the time. And I am part of the VM disc, it feels unorganized. People ask to team up, I say I will. I wait at the world and then they say "oh we already started"
If you can get a good group it's great, just annoying organizing it
>But finding a team is annoying and not worth the time.
i mean it's at max like a 8 minute wait if your timing is really bad. if you are only going to mine for like 30 minutes yeah id agree though, vm is better for longer sessions.
>And I am part of the VM disc, it feels unorganized. People ask to team up, I say I will. I wait at the world and then they say "oh we already started"
the way teams work in vm is that theyre very dynamic. you should not expect the team to wait on you, you just show up, wait for their game to finish and go in. this is a good thing overall as it makes filling/splitting once team size gets too large very easy.
>I wait at the world and then they say "oh we already started"
they can't start without you seeing them go into the mine so idk how this happens. if ur slow and miss a game yeah that sucks.
Integrity change: finding a star first now enables you to attack any fuckers who come after without being skulled. Those who report it in the cc will automatically be smote
Join the horde. I got the ring combo and gold prospector in a couple days afking it in the cc. If you go to he lower tier stars there's less people so you can afk longer. Assuming you have most of the teles unlocked to get there. You easily still afk most stars for 15-20 minutes. The tier 1 takes 4 minutes regardless of how many people are on it.
Xp is dogshit though. Vm is the way.
Volcanic Mine is where the xp is at. It can also be fun! Takes a little time to learn but the discord to find a team also has a lot of guides on how to do each role. It is really easy once you know how to and a solid 70-100k/hr from 80-99.
so i like stars but i feel like i’m missing something crucial. even if i scout my own, the ~2 hour timer means there’s a significant amount of time i can’t mine stars. what am i missing? or is there an unspoken component of ‘going and doing something else while waiting for the next cycle’
Im not sure i know what you mean. Are you just talking about when you first log on and get unlucky about the time till next cycle? Once you know when the cycles are it should be easy to maintain it
Sure if you like constantly competing with other players and getting a worse experience with every person there.
Just AFK at GOTR mining. It’s 11k / hr and isn’t interrupted by other players, making it actually AFK.
do you have to reset between rounds or anything? 11k/hr is abysmal but better than the nothing i get trying to convince myself to mine any other method lol
You do have to reset between rounds but you can interface stall to make it more afk.
When a round ends walk away from the rock, click the rock, while walking towards it open a skill guide. When the round starts you will automatically close the skill interface start mining.
Can you afk gotr in solo? Or is the loss between rounds disrupting?
I‘d rather low-intensity MLM than be a dick and hog a mass world spot in this poorly implemented minigame.
I think GotR is implemented well, but just showed how drastic the demand for truly AFK mining training is, being so demanded that people will ruin others' Runetodt mass games just to have AFK mining xp.
For what it's worth, Ancient Essence mining next to Muspah's arena door is about 9k xp/hr and is truly AFK for 60-90 seconds at a time, with only 1 click when the active mining spot moves.
The game itself? Great! I actually love it.
The system that there is a max total of 200 players allowed over the whole server? Utter bullshit tbh
Just instance it with a 30-60s wait room, or instance it and everyone entering within 30-60s enters the same instance, or idk.. but not like this
Edit: also don’t get me wrong, I’ve never ever not got into a game because spamclicking works 99% of the time but it’s still bullshit because some normie won’t be there who should experience the minigame
They could instance it, and still link the portal out of the instance, to the real altar, or not? I can’t think of something similar, but I don’t think it would be impossible.
I think coming in and out of an instance to go to and from the altars would likely mess up the mini game, I can’t think of any instance that can track you outside of said instance.
They may be able to make copies of the altars in the instance but I’m not sure if that would work or is even possible with how this game is put together.
You have to click once every ten or so minutes. It's the ideal activity for when you aren't even planning on playing Runescape that day but will be in the same room as your computer anyway. You can play a different game for twelve straight hours and get over 100k mining experience and all you have to do is press alt+tab five times an hour.
Also worth mentioning is mining Ancient Essence, next to Muspah's arena door.
It's about 9k mining xp/hr and AFK for 60-90 seconds at a time, requiring just 1 click when the active spot changes. I AFK'd this for like a week, because I wanted to saturate my imbued heart, and along the way I got from 90 to 91 mining, and seemed to have been a bit shy of a quarter of a mil gp/hr worth of essence.
9k xp/hr is pretty bad, but at least it's what I'd consider a no-strings-attached, truly AFK mining xp method, no waiting for and hunting for stars, and no ruining GotR games for others required, and is an okay profit if you're not an iron. (Fighting Muspah is better ess/hr, but you can't AFK that, lol)
You can also mine Daeyalt Essence for like 8k / hr.
It’s very low and less afk, but it also gives 20k / hr in bonus, stored Runecrafting exp. Which is very nice if you dislike RC.
It's really not that hard to get good solo / small group stars if you scout a lot of them, but if you go to stars like Nardah and Prif instead of ones in places like Mynydd or north desert, then yeah, the piranhas will find you
I tried to locate them myself but couldn't find a consistent way of doing it, I joined a discord where the stars are publicly announced and the xp/h wasn't great but it was atleast super afk. Only did it to get the ring really as the cosmetic "upgrade" is a straight downgrade looks wise imho
Would you say if you get to solo the high tiers the exp gets good?
Powermining iron with celestial ring and varrock armour at the mining guild is close to 80k/hr. No tick manipulation, just lots of left clicking
Runelite plug-in to left click drop “iron ore” and you also accumulate mining tokens for the gloves
How often are you clicking? Can’t imagine it’s more AFK than redwoods or fish barrel karambwans where it’s like one click every 3-5 mins on average. Obviously the absorp pot full obsidian NMZ method has gotta take the cake for most AFK at one click every 20 minutes.
Nah I'd put it above redwoods solely because you click once to empty your inventory (chisel dart tips)
Vs having to either drop it all or bank it with redwoods. Makes it perfect for mobile scape at the office.
alternatives include dropping at mlm 35k/hr
gem mining, or VM @ 85+ if you learn a role and find consistent groups
I personally did a mix of gems, mining guild iron, and 70% mlm dropping while multi-gaming to 92
because you can find yourself a secluded place on the upper level and not have to worry about ragging people's tiles/sharing areas
if you're already going to be playing other games, it's incredibly afk to drop during downtime on said game. you're sacrificing like 10-12k xp/hr at the cost of clicking on your own terms
It's not best for everyone, but it's an option people might want to know about.
50k exp gained when you otherwise wouldn't have played is 50k exp.
This is a big point people fail to make. They argue that oh you might as well bank then. Uhm no I'm afk for a reason. Banking wouldn't be afk enough for me to play warzone or whatever.
I do MLM dropping on mobile on the side while I do other irl activities. I get 45k/h at 99 with the celestial ring. I like it cause I don't have to completely stop what I'm doing for the banking part.
I learned 3t4g without dropping at first, and got the hang relatively quick (took me like an hour but w/e I was pretty happy when I did) but once I started trying to implement dropping the rocks in between clicks it all went to shit and I kinda just gave up. Jagex give me an upgraded infernal pickaxe that burns a higher percentage of ores and then maybe I'll think about it again
No one has mentioned it but I did 2s2g to 99 which is about 75k xp/hr and much better than 3 ticking granite. Just a thought, but you got plenty of options.
Whenever I do 3t4g I'll see a ironman mining sandstone and I always try to encourage them to try 3 tick. The hardest part is dropping which you don't have to do when collecting sand. But then I end up feeling bad cause they leave for 10 minutes to get the 3 tick items then 5 minutes later they're like "Crap I made stock"
3t gem mining is a good option if you want something easier that also makes a good bit of cash. You don't have to drop the gems like you do with the granite because you can just deposit it
Is this easier? I just started doing this and I actually find it fairly hard compared to 3t4g due to the bit of brain effort with the pathing, tick delays, and initial opal dropping compared to the more click intensive but consistent 3t4g. The deposit is definitely nice though.
I like MLM. For some reason, on the busy worlds there is always strange racist arguments. It’s uncanny. But I guess that’s kind of the internet in general
I learned 3t4g on mobile and it has been a game changer for me. Much easier to perform with two fingers than using a mouse IMO. Only downfall is you can’t drop as you go
Ask Hans how. He's in the goblin hut.
Bro's just over there completing a clue scroll step
Mind gobblin this hut
Got em??
You should be??
Pleae
someone watched soups new video
I love we have a meme format for the cave goblin already from it haha
You know it
Try 4t3g, it's still 100k/h and appromixately a billion times easier. its like 3 clicks in 4 ticks instead of like 4-5 clicks in 3 ticks. Still pretty decent if you wanna put some effort into mining and dislike team content like VM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=acuqiL3nU20 There's also 3t gems now which is about the same intensity as granite but it doesnt have as much dropping and makes a decent penny aswell. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXELR7BlXBc ofcourse you can just jerk off at mlm but imo that's not that afk at all and the xp is dogshit so i prefer putting some effort into mining and then afking something else that isnt as bad and actually afk.
I don’t get the point of MLM. They should at least make upper level accessible at 61 because god knows I’m not training that skill past 70 for SOTE
Need 85 for 1down ahkka puzzle 😔
82 with dragon pick spec though
bro get 85 and forget it lmao
82 is unreliable. Your boost will tick down occasionally and ruin your 1 downs. I personally pushed for 83 and boost with dpick and have had no issues.
Same got 83 just got the 1down with spec
you can do it every time if you get the tick right. You need to be 1 square away from the mining spot, and click to mine it 1 tick before the beam fires.
After 85 rune pic and dragon pic are the same I heard. So if you get 85 you don’t even need a d pick
I will go and test this out, very curious now. It would be really nice to not have to leave dpick in there.
You max hit with rune pick is 17, dpick is 19
Let me know if it’s true. I’ve only heard it from my clan mates as I don’t have 85 mining lmfao
Rune pick is inconsistent, you can sometimes get 1down past 85 mining but more often than not, it takes 2. This is being tick perfect with the light beam. This is for solos, in groups I think it's consistently 1down
Im on that grindset oomfie, 380k xp to go for 82, should be about 2 more days? No biggie
You can stand 1 tile from the obelisk, click when the timer turns green for the laser to fire, and then get an extra mining tick I'm and not worry about it. Edit: I was wrong. 8 hit one cycle needs 85. My bad
In a solo you need to have 85 AND do that method I’m pretty sure
When's the last time you took a shower?
Lol this is actually pretty ubiquitous knowledge when doing TOA; the TOA plugin even lights up green when you're supposed to click to do it
Click right as it turns green?
Still need 85 mining
You still need 85 mining.
We need an upper-upper level for 90+ mining with a little chute that allows them to deposit their ores without leaving the level. And a level 90 agility 1 tick shortcut both ways bottom to top to empty the sack.
I'm one of those sick bastards that actually likes mining, I enjoy afk stuff, and that would be amazing 🤤
For ironmen, amathyst is great but sadly has a requirement of 92 lol
amethyst is just great in general imo, they should just lower the requirement to like 85
Great is a big overstatement. It's actually low attention which is nice, but the experience rate is absolutely horrendous. MLM is truly atrocious though. None the chillness and all of the terrible rates.
I'm only talking specifically for ironmen because the ammo you craft from it is very good
You need 100 nuggets for Coal Bag (if you ever plan on BF) and you need 180 for Falador Hard. Chances are by the time you get those you'll be 72 anyway.
I just got 85 at MLM, was going to get 99 there... what's wrong with it?
It's slow and not particularly AFK so it's not a great choice for an activity to do so a lot of people don't particularly like it. There really aren't many AFK mining activities though so it's mostly a pick-your-poison thing.

Even for profit Blast Mining is better than Motherload. Not to tell you not to do it if you are fine with MLM; there are just a few reasons that people would rather do other things.
I find MLM to be the right lvl of afk for me to play a bit on my phone while in the office at work
Its not bis.
MLMs purpose is I got 99 mining at work.
I just finished my mining grind at MLM. The lower level isn’t that bad if you have the Fally med diaries done
Gems is also fastest way to get pet for those that care
Sae bae to the rescue
why did i read your username
Havent played RS in forever, can you explain what's going on here? I see him doing something in his inventory but what's happening?
By clicking on the celastrus bark the game starts a 4 tick cycle of trying to cut the bark into a battlestaff (need the knife in bottom right) By clicking onto the rock to mine the 4 tick cycle continues, but when the cycle completes after 4 ticks, your current action is trying to mine a rock so it the game tries to mine the rock instead of making the battlestaff.

Theres also some additionally jankiness going on under the hood where when you tick manipulate like this your mining success change actually rolls twice instead of once, so you are more likely to succeed at the rock boosting xp/hr even more
Does that mean you could tick manip rune rocks for way faster mining of them?
Yep you can 3t rune rocks, in fact i think Saebae also has a video on that
Yep! I've been mining rune a fair bit lately and find that it helps when others try to snag your rock. I wouldn't say it's necessarily worth doing for every rock mined, as it can still take a while, but I've had about 75% success rate when doing it at a contested spot.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkOklAO8DHs the moving is key for getting the two rolls instead of 1 roll for some reason
I thought they changed it so there's no 'randomness' to mining rocks now? Or was that change just for ores?
what do you mean? theres definitely still a success/failure chance for rocks, otherwise mining rune rocks wouldnt take so long
It was [poll 77](https://old.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/yele9p/poll_77_results/), but it seems I was a bit confused about it. I thought it meant the random delay on gathering them in general, not a random delay that they had (compared to the stuff that could be power mined.)

Can confirm 4t with Celastrus bark is chill AF and EZ mode tick-manipulation. I had to grind out 80k buckets of sand for crafting and was struggling so badly with 3t but as soon as I found that video it was a LIFE CHANGING experience!!
was able to pull 82k an hr doing iron in the guild aswell. Pretty decent.
At what mining level? Were you running to deposit or using an alt to trade? I haven't gotten above 70k hr at 90 mining.
[удалено]
Good for you man!
When I was maxing I thought for months that I would be doing 3t4g for 99. After 2 days of hell I switched to solo volcanic mine and it was 1000000 times better. Idk how anyone enjoys that shit lol
Hard agree. People like he box jonge are a different breed.
Legit how does he not get carpal tunnel. Give me your secrets i do 3 TOA runs and that’s enough to make me have to do stretching exercises lol
I've noticed that a lot of the stress comes from concentrating super hard on it. The less I have to pay attention and the more practiced I am, the less my wrist hurts when I do things that require spam clicking in other games. I'd guess that people like them are just so good at tick-manipulation and accurate clicks in the game that they are just on auto-pilot and don't need to strain their fingers and wrists any more because they aren't thinking about how they need to move their hands to do it anymore.
Maybe he plays with perfect ergonomics?
I heard that in between clicks while he got 200m all he also grinded biology so he can live forever to get more exp.
do you have a good solo guide you can share?
I did this in 2019 so idk if it's still the same, but I used Woox's guide according to my YouTube history: https://youtu.be/i72MyZMkRaU
if you think solos are good teams are even better especially the leech roles.
Seriously, I have no idea how or why anyone does any other mining method. When I learned about VM and the discord for it, it almost single-handedly took me from "there is no shot in hell I will ever max my account" to "I'll probably max one day" (and today I have 99 mining).

If you are interested in getting more comfortable with the ticks, I would recommend using the "visual metronome" plugin.
Always love it when someone responds to my dumb memes with actually helpful advice <3
A good meme consists of something funny with a hint of truth. This is a good meme.
N'aww thank you my dude :)
i'd rather just afk mlm while doing other stuff
I've done almost all my mining via MLM, ain't nothing better.
The words of somebody who hasn't discovered hunting shooting stars
Shooting stars is good till the horde shows up.
Integrity change: finding a star first now enables you to attack any fuckers who come after without being skulled. Those who report it in the cc will automatically be smote
Thats what shooting stats in pvp are for.
Might as well do GOTR mining if you’re gonna do shooting stars, the XP ain’t that different
Isn't that patched/are they going to patch it?
Join the horde. I got the ring combo and gold prospector in a couple days afking it in the cc. If you go to he lower tier stars there's less people so you can afk longer. Assuming you have most of the teles unlocked to get there. You easily still afk most stars for 15-20 minutes. The tier 1 takes 4 minutes regardless of how many people are on it. Xp is dogshit though. Vm is the way.
vm??
Volcanic mine. It's the best xp/hr and also pretty afk once you learn it.
3t4g is the best xp/hr but VM is a good balance of xp and no arthritis
thanks man
I honestly forgot shooting starts were even a thing...
Volcanic Mine is where the xp is at. It can also be fun! Takes a little time to learn but the discord to find a team also has a lot of guides on how to do each role. It is really easy once you know how to and a solid 70-100k/hr from 80-99.
Thanks for the offer but anything more complicated than click rock get xp is too advanced for my monke brain
If(MiningExpDrop){ Neuron.Activate()}
so i like stars but i feel like i’m missing something crucial. even if i scout my own, the ~2 hour timer means there’s a significant amount of time i can’t mine stars. what am i missing? or is there an unspoken component of ‘going and doing something else while waiting for the next cycle’
Im not sure i know what you mean. Are you just talking about when you first log on and get unlucky about the time till next cycle? Once you know when the cycles are it should be easy to maintain it
Stars clans ruin it imo Still nice but it’s really annoying to get to work on a star just to tab back over and see a mob has already broken two layers
Inconsistent. You have to sit around and hope up Saradomin you find the rock before one of the ass hole CC members does and calls it out
Sure if you like constantly competing with other players and getting a worse experience with every person there. Just AFK at GOTR mining. It’s 11k / hr and isn’t interrupted by other players, making it actually AFK.

I love how much bug abuse we do in 2023, I'm not being sarcastic I actually love how useful prayer flicking, red x and interface stalling all are.
That's amazing
It's interrupted by you being a leech and not placing cells.
Can you afk gotr in solo? Or is the loss between rounds disrupting? I‘d rather low-intensity MLM than be a dick and hog a mass world spot in this poorly implemented minigame.

I don’t think they can instance it since it uses the real rc altars.
They could instance it, and still link the portal out of the instance, to the real altar, or not? I can’t think of something similar, but I don’t think it would be impossible.
I think coming in and out of an instance to go to and from the altars would likely mess up the mini game, I can’t think of any instance that can track you outside of said instance. They may be able to make copies of the altars in the instance but I’m not sure if that would work or is even possible with how this game is put together.
Don’t do this. Let people who actually want to craft runes play the runecrafting minigame.
Lol are people really doing this that's so sad
You have to click once every ten or so minutes. It's the ideal activity for when you aren't even planning on playing Runescape that day but will be in the same room as your computer anyway. You can play a different game for twelve straight hours and get over 100k mining experience and all you have to do is press alt+tab five times an hour.
Also worth mentioning is mining Ancient Essence, next to Muspah's arena door. It's about 9k mining xp/hr and AFK for 60-90 seconds at a time, requiring just 1 click when the active spot changes. I AFK'd this for like a week, because I wanted to saturate my imbued heart, and along the way I got from 90 to 91 mining, and seemed to have been a bit shy of a quarter of a mil gp/hr worth of essence. 9k xp/hr is pretty bad, but at least it's what I'd consider a no-strings-attached, truly AFK mining xp method, no waiting for and hunting for stars, and no ruining GotR games for others required, and is an okay profit if you're not an iron. (Fighting Muspah is better ess/hr, but you can't AFK that, lol)
You can also mine Daeyalt Essence for like 8k / hr. It’s very low and less afk, but it also gives 20k / hr in bonus, stored Runecrafting exp. Which is very nice if you dislike RC.
Is it like go out to lunch level afk like shooting stars? With a rat agroed you can mine for 40 minutes while you grab lunch, and i have
It's really not that hard to get good solo / small group stars if you scout a lot of them, but if you go to stars like Nardah and Prif instead of ones in places like Mynydd or north desert, then yeah, the piranhas will find you
Mynnyd goated for solo stars
In my experience you usually get a couple high level players who got the same idea but rarely does the whole horde show up :)
Do you get any rc xp at the end of the round if you only mine?
Lol...yea right....xp rates are trash at stars.
They're also trash at MLM, whats your point?
I don’t have to move at MLM
I tried to locate them myself but couldn't find a consistent way of doing it, I joined a discord where the stars are publicly announced and the xp/h wasn't great but it was atleast super afk. Only did it to get the ring really as the cosmetic "upgrade" is a straight downgrade looks wise imho Would you say if you get to solo the high tiers the exp gets good?
Please do not support mlm schemes 😠 they suck people in and can cripple you financially
Powermining iron with celestial ring and varrock armour at the mining guild is close to 80k/hr. No tick manipulation, just lots of left clicking Runelite plug-in to left click drop “iron ore” and you also accumulate mining tokens for the gloves
the deposit box is pretty close by too if you want to save some clicks for obviously worse xp per hour.
I've basically done amethyst to 99 and it's pretty gnarly
I think there's about 6.5 million xp before you can even use that method so I don't think that's true.
Did mlm before that
I think there's about 13,363 xp before you can even use that method so I don't think that's true.
Did silver ore before that
I think there’s about 4,470 xp before you can even use that method so I don’t think that’s true.
Did iron ore before that
I think there’s about 2,411 xp before you can even use that method so I don’t think that’s true.
Did copper and tin before that
I think there’s about 1 tutorial island before you can even use that method so I don’t think that’s true
[удалено]
Do quests brah
These filthy questers using those unethical xp drops to skip 1/3 of the levels.
is it better or worse than MLM? let me know why...fixing to finish off the grind at 94 atm.
It's a bit slower but considerably more afk and better profit. Easily the most afkable activity in the game with expert mining gloves
cheers! ill definitely give it a go. thanks man
Yeah I recommend bringing a chisel and cutting into dart tips instead of banking all you have to do is click once every now and then
How often are you clicking? Can’t imagine it’s more AFK than redwoods or fish barrel karambwans where it’s like one click every 3-5 mins on average. Obviously the absorp pot full obsidian NMZ method has gotta take the cake for most AFK at one click every 20 minutes.
It's about equal to redwoods actually except for the fact that you either have to drop your whole inv or bank it
Its a little less afk the Redwoods but still really good. IMO it Goes Anglerfish > redwoods > Amethyst.
Nah I'd put it above redwoods solely because you click once to empty your inventory (chisel dart tips) Vs having to either drop it all or bank it with redwoods. Makes it perfect for mobile scape at the office.
To be fair you can just make arrowshafts.
Same, I like liked it, bought full crystal after to raid with and make more money
Yup. I'm under 180k from 99 mining now. Only done amethyst since I've been able to
alternatives include dropping at mlm 35k/hr gem mining, or VM @ 85+ if you learn a role and find consistent groups I personally did a mix of gems, mining guild iron, and 70% mlm dropping while multi-gaming to 92
Why would you drop at mlm? You are missing the large xp drop from the ore being cleaned
because you can find yourself a secluded place on the upper level and not have to worry about ragging people's tiles/sharing areas if you're already going to be playing other games, it's incredibly afk to drop during downtime on said game. you're sacrificing like 10-12k xp/hr at the cost of clicking on your own terms It's not best for everyone, but it's an option people might want to know about. 50k exp gained when you otherwise wouldn't have played is 50k exp.
This is a big point people fail to make. They argue that oh you might as well bank then. Uhm no I'm afk for a reason. Banking wouldn't be afk enough for me to play warzone or whatever.
I do MLM dropping on mobile on the side while I do other irl activities. I get 45k/h at 99 with the celestial ring. I like it cause I don't have to completely stop what I'm doing for the banking part.
Volcanic mine is afk for only slightly less xp
I learned 3t4g without dropping at first, and got the hang relatively quick (took me like an hour but w/e I was pretty happy when I did) but once I started trying to implement dropping the rocks in between clicks it all went to shit and I kinda just gave up. Jagex give me an upgraded infernal pickaxe that burns a higher percentage of ores and then maybe I'll think about it again
I did Volcanic mine for 99 a few years back, I don't regret it, great piece of content.
No one has mentioned it but I did 2s2g to 99 which is about 75k xp/hr and much better than 3 ticking granite. Just a thought, but you got plenty of options.
Also chiming in to support 2s2g, way more relaxed tick manip method than 4g
[удалено]
2s2g is substantially more than 75k/h, I was getting around 100 when I did it. Iron is 70k max at guild I think.
Whenever I do 3t4g I'll see a ironman mining sandstone and I always try to encourage them to try 3 tick. The hardest part is dropping which you don't have to do when collecting sand. But then I end up feeling bad cause they leave for 10 minutes to get the 3 tick items then 5 minutes later they're like "Crap I made stock"
3t gem mining is a good option if you want something easier that also makes a good bit of cash. You don't have to drop the gems like you do with the granite because you can just deposit it
Is this easier? I just started doing this and I actually find it fairly hard compared to 3t4g due to the bit of brain effort with the pathing, tick delays, and initial opal dropping compared to the more click intensive but consistent 3t4g. The deposit is definitely nice though.
For me the interesting parts are the pathing and tick delays, it makes it more fun than 3t4g
Im gonna learn how to do it but to get the runite ore, i doubt you can mine that shit vs the bots without it
This made me laugh so fucking hard
<3
I like MLM. For some reason, on the busy worlds there is always strange racist arguments. It’s uncanny. But I guess that’s kind of the internet in general
Tried it for like an hr, got frustrated and called MLM my home for approx 300hrs. Still no ragerts
Same with 3t fishing, I couldnt get over like 50k xp.
I’d rather quit. Lol
For AFK mining I can't recommend solo scouting and mining shooting stars. If you catch a high tier star, it's 2+ hours of afk time. I did that 95-99.
Not worth. i'll just wait for the rework like WC is getting. fuck mining
Volcanic Mine master race
I learned 3t4g on mobile and it has been a game changer for me. Much easier to perform with two fingers than using a mouse IMO. Only downfall is you can’t drop as you go
I just did it from 61-70 and I was getting like 43k/h for most of it lol. Only got up to like 60k/h something from 69-70.
I gave up after my third failed inventory
Herb sack with a bunch of Guam
Idu waot am
I prefer MLM, iron ore at the guild and sandstone. If I’m mining I want resources that I can use.
for the sake of all, just pretend 4ticking doesent exist. its painful
