Posted by: cow  //  Category: Runescape Skills

Dedicated to Fouisgras the rs character. This is how I got to 86 fishing and 99 cooking, until jagex bansticked me for a BS reason. Enjoy the guide and to your prosparity in rs.
————————————————————————–
Fishing is the basis for all runescape money made via skills. Many will disagree, but this is my belief. With 99 fishing, one can aquire 99 cooking and much gold. With a time investment, you can achieve anything in runescape with 99 fishing.

NOTE: The calculation of these levels is rough. It all depends on how many you fish you burn, how many salmon you get compared to trout, ect, ect. There is a hidden meaning to this guide though.

THERE IS 1 GOLDEN RULE. SAVE EVERYTHING. Most of the beginning fish will be saved to gain valuable cooking exp which will save much time and money in the future! Save everything! Including those 39 shrimp from level 1-5!

Lets start off with level 1- 0exp shall we?
—————————————–
Levels 1-5= Shrimp with a small net. No brainer. I recommend south of Al Kharid Bank as there is a bank very close, and as I say above, you must save everything. You must fish 39 shrimp.

Levels 6-25= Sardines bait fishing with a fishing rod and some bait. Fairly annoying task. 39 Sardines to level 10, at which you will catch 223 Herring using the same method. Probably will be more of a mix between the herring and sardines once you hit level 10. either way it’ll be around that number.

26-55= Fly fishing is a must here. I strongly reccommend barbarian village and banking your fish at the edgeville bank to the north. To reach 30 for salmon you’ll need 111 trout. After that, you’ll need about 3k feathers to be safe. odds are you’ll only use like 2.5k of them but you’ll be catching a mixture between 2.2k salmon and 3k trout.

56-90= If you want levels and you want them fast, then the only way to go here is LOBSTERS!!! Head down to Catherby and fish lobsters to 68. At 68 you’ll make your move to your new perminate home! THE FISHING GUILD!! Where you’ll be spending what seems like eternity for the next few weeks. Continue lobsters at the guild until 90. 57,553 lobsters for this baby. GOOD NEWS! When you cook all those, and the stuff before, you’ll be around 92 cooking.

91-99= In order to finish off this hellish quest you need sharks from 91-99. Only way to do it. I wouldnt suggest sharks before this as the loads take too long and you get more exp faster with lobsters. 69,892 shark. Have fun. GOOD NEWS THOUGH! Once you cook some of those, you now have 99 cooking. And 99 fishing. Congrats. More good news! For level 99 cooking you’ll only need around 29k of those sharks, so that leaves you with around 41k sharks left to sell! If you get 900ea for these (easy to sell for 900ea), you now have 36.9mil to use up.

LETS GO GET 99 FIREMAKING EY? EASY LEVEL 99 AND A REALLY COOL CAPE!

Same as before, start level 1, 0 exp
———————————-
Levels 1-15= Get off your bum and go cut some regular trees down. Merry christmas, you now have lvl 15 fm. 61 normal logs.

16-30= Same as before, go out and cut 183 oak logs and burn them.

31-45= 535 Willow logs this time. If you have a bit of work ethic in your body go cut them yourself. If not, who cares? You have 36.9mil to use up. Go buy em or something.

46-60= Go buy 1,573 Maple logs. Not like it’s gunna burn a hole in your wallet or anything….

61-99= Your home free buddy. Go buy 63,016 yew logs for 290ea NO MORE OR CASTRATE THOSE NOOB MERCHANTS WHO PUSHED THE PRICE! Ahem….uhm yes.. go get 63,016 yew logs for 290ea costing you 18.75mil.

Congrats you have 99 Fishing, Cooking, and Firemaking and 18.15mil left. Go buy yourself a pretty hat or something.

The real reason of this guide is not to show you how to get easy 99’s. Partially because there are no easy 99’s. It was to show you what the power of a little bit of work ethic can do. If you do this, you’ve been through hell and back and you can tell people what you’ve done while they stare in amazement at your capes and your work ethic. Everyone benifits. Money, respect, and a few purdy capes. Enjoy yourself.

How to Achieve 99 Fishing in RuneScape

Posted by: cow  //  Category: Uncategorized

Getting level 99 fishing is one of the longest objectives to do, but it is also a rewarding one because it’s a good way to get coins. Reading this article could help you become level 99 in fishing on Runescape.

Non-members Method
Stock up on supplies. You will need 2 small nets, 2 fishing rods, 2 fly fishing rods, fishing bait, feathers, a harpoon, and a lobster cage, you can buy these supplies and more from Port Sarim. Although this sounds like a lot of coins, it is not that expensive.
Fish 40 shrimps. You can find them south of Lumbridge. Shrimps are good because you don’t have to worry about bait or feathers yet because you only need a small net. Continue doing this until your fishing is level 5.
Fish 40 sardines. You can find these fish where you found the shrimps. Now you will be using your fishing rod and fish bait. Do this until your fishing level is 10.
Fish some herrings. Fish in the same area. You will still need your fishing rod and bait. You will still continue to catch sardines at the same time. Continue this until your fishing is level 15.
Fish some anchovies. Get your small fishing net and fish in the same area you were already fishing in. You will catch shrimps when you fish these. Fish these until your fishing level is 20.
Fish 68 trouts. This time you get to go to a different place. Go to Lumbridge River and fish there. You will also use the fly fishing rod and your feathers to catch the fish. Fish for trouts until you fishing level is 25.
Fish 93 pikes. You will still be in Lumbridge River, but you will go back to using your fishing rod and bait. Keep getting the pikes until your fishing level is 30.
Fish some salmon. Don’t be to jumpy to move to another place because you will still be fishing in Lumbridge River. However, you will be using your fly fishing rod and feathers. When fishing salmon, you will also be catching trout at the same time. Do this until your fishing is level 35
Harpoon 186 tuna. This time you will move to a different location; but you will need a lot of money because it takes 60 coins to go to Karamja and back. Also, you won’t need any bait anymore! All you need is a harpoon. Harpoon the the tuna until your fishing is level 40.
Cage 714 lobsters. Now you can start making money off of these types of fish. You will stay on Karamja Dock, but you will be using a lobster cage. Cage these until your fishing is level 50.
Methods such as lobsters, sharks, swordfish are very slow methods to 99. The fastest way (proven) is to complete the Swan Song quest. This enables you to fish monkfish. Monkfish are faster than lobsters and sharks, heal 16, and give more EXP than any other fish in the game. Another alternative, which is commonly used by nonmembers is to fly-fish from the earliest moment possible to the moment you reach level 99. It is one of the fastest ways to gain experience.
You may want an iPod, MP3 player, or music on your computer because fishing can get boring at times.
Another way to fight boredom is to chat with the other people who are fishing near you.
If you want to make more money while fishing, sell the fish raw. Raw fish often sell for higher than cooked fish.
You shouldn’t have any items that you don’t need when you fish. You’ll need to go to the bank/cook more often
Join a clan; RuneScape has recently added a clan chat feature, and there are surely other people as bored as you that may wish to chat.
Multitask while doing this. For example, play another game, or do homework.
Check your character often. You don’t want to be killed or teleported by a random event stay where you are when the fishing spot moves, or stay there with a full inventory.
Watch for whirlpools and big fish. They’ll snatch your equipment.
If you have done Shilo Village Quest, then fish there until you want to fish for something higher; you can also lvl 4-5 levels per day, which makes it the perfect place to fish for levels.
You can also feed the fish to your cat.

How to Get 99 Fishing in Runescape

Posted by: cow  //  Category: Runescape Guide

Hello, and welcome to my guide to getting 99 Fishing on Runescape. Getting to 99 Fishing is no easy accomplishment, so what ever you do, I suggest you never give up. Member and Non - Member descriptions will be give for each level increment.

Part I. Introduction

Hello again, and good luck because you are about to embark on long, and rewarding quest. Achieving 99 fishing is not going to be easy. You will need to stay strong and persevere throughout this entire goal. There will be tough times ahead, but if you do not give up, you will eventually succeed and be the envy of others in Runescape with your Achievement Cape. I wish you good luck.

Part II. Fast Experience

There are a couple of ways you can achieve 99 fishing, and one of those ways is by getting to 99 quickly with “Fast Experience.”

Levels 1 - 20

Items You’ll Need:
- Small Fishing Net

To start the long journey to 99 fishing, take your Small Fishing Net and fish shrimp. Shrimping is a fast way to get to level 20, if you stick with it for a little bit. Also, if you want an even faster way to get up to 20, try using a fishing rod on the same spots as you catch the shrimp. The fishing rod method will cost a little more because you will need to purchase bait, and it can be more time consuming if you do not already have the fishing rod and bait. Otherwise, fish shrimp until level 20. Fishing shrimp when you get to level 15, will let you catch Anchovies. Shrimp leveling should now go even faster. A nice shrimping place is in a place called Draynor Village because of the bank near the fishing spot.

Levels 20 - 30

Items You’ll Need:
- Fly fishing rod
- Feathers

As soon as you reach level 20, fly fishing for trout until level 30 in a river is the fastest method for experience. Do not bother with the pike because you will not catch them fast enough to get fast experience.

Non - Member Areas:

Location 1: Lumbridge
