| Effectiveness | Fishing level requirement | Details | Other requirements/fishing equipment |
|---|---|---|---|
| ***** | Level 5 | Sardines sell for about 34 coins each if raw, and around 4 coins when cooked. These can be fished from the Catherby shore, the southern shore of Al-Kharid, and Draynor Village. | |
| ***** | level 10 | Herring sells for about 42 coins each if raw, and around 14 coins when cooked. However while fishing these聽sardines are also caught,聽worth聽half as much.聽These are fished in the same spots as sardines. | |
| ***** | Level 15 | Catch anchovies in the same spot as herring and sardine with a small net. Anchovies sell for about 60 coins each, while the cooked versions sell for 59 coins each.聽Shrimp聽is adviseably聽dropped being聽worth much less than anchovies. | |
| ***** | Level 35 | Tuna can be caught at level 35 fishing in either Catherby or the Fishing Guild. . They sell for 146 when cooked, and 170 when raw. Also the higher your agility the more chance you have of catching two Tuna at a time. | |
| ***** | Level 38 | At this level,聽cave eel are caught in the same spots as slimy eel. Raw cave eels sell for 437 coins each, while cooked they sell for 222. | |
| ***** | Level 40 | Fishing lobsters is a聽popular way to make money for both free-to-play members and lower level pay-to-play members. There are two popular places to catch them; Karamja or Catherby. Caught at Karamja, bank is quick聽in聽TzHaar city,聽caught in聽Catherby, Catherby bank is close. One other place is Jatizso. You need to start Fremennik isles quest but it is really close to a bank and is most of the time unpopulated. | |
| ***** | Level 50 | At this level Swordfish聽may be caught and sold for 575 when cooked and 575 when raw. Tuna, however, is caught with them.聽Locations include聽Catherby, Fishing Guild, or Jatizso(completion of聽The Fremennik Trials required) Also the higher your agility the more chance you have of catching two swordfish at a time. | |
| ***** | Level 62 | Monkfish are found at the Piscatoris Fishing Colony. They tend to be caught faster than sharks, even at high levels, and sell for around 598 coins each when raw, and about 653 coins when cooked. In an hour, 250-320 monkfish are caught, depending on聽Fishing level. See this monkfish analysis for a breakdown of efficiency. | Swan Song completed |
| ***** | Level 65 | At this level聽Raw karambwan聽may be fished, which are worth 640 coins each. Keep in mind that the Karambwan will sometimes steal the bait from the vessel. If this happens often, it聽lowers profit. | Tai Bwo Wannai Trio completed |
| ***** | Level 76 | At this level sharks聽may be fished. Sharks are caught fairly slowly even at high levels, so it is advisable not to fish them with a fishing level lower than about 80. Raw sharks sell for around 1,477 coins each, and cooked sharks fetch for about 1,640 coins each. At 95+ Fishing 1,000 sharks are caught in 7 hours or less; on average, only about 150 sharks can be caught in an hour, even with 99 fishing.聽It is still arguable that this is the best conventional method of making money by fishing except possibly Rocktail fishing. Also the higher your agility the more chance you have of catching two sharks at a time. | 80 Cooking (optional) |
| ***** | Level 81+ | The Fishing Trawler minigame聽provides聽Manta rays and/or sea turtles聽from level 81 if the boat聽lasts聽10 minutes without sinking.聽聽Unlike other fish, cooked sea turtles and manta rays fetch higher prices than their raw counterparts. Cooked manta rays can sell for about 3,387 coins each while cooked sea turtles sell for about 3,029 coins. If the boat doesn’t sink,聽normally聽approximately 20 manta rays are聽acquired,聽leading to 60,000gp every 10 minutes. This is聽only if the player is聽with a good team,聽the boat聽not sinking. | 91 cooking (optional) |
| *****150k-200k/hr | Level 85 | The Living Rock Caverns is an area in the dwarven mines where high level fishers and miners can train their skills. At level 85, you are able to catch a new type of fish - Cavefish. To catch this fish, you will need normal fishing bait and good armour to defend yourself from aggressive high-level rock creatures. A raw cavefish has a market price of 1478 gold pieces and a cooked cavefish sells for 1577 gold pieces. You can gain 40,000-50,000 experience per hour fishing Cavefish and 150,000-200,000 cash. | 88 Cooking (optional) |
| *****250k/hr | Level 90 | Just like Cavefish, you can catch another high levelled fish in the Living Rock Caverns - Rocktail. To catch this fish, you will need some bait called Living Minerals. The market price of living minerals is currently 265gp (1 April 2010). Again, you will need some good armour to defend yourself from the aggressive living rock creatures. The market price for raw rocktail is 2547gp and the price for cooked rocktail is 2517gp. This is much faster experience per hour than lobsters and monkfish, reaching to 60,000 xp/h maximum. You are able to make over 250,000 gold pieces per hour using this method. | 93 Cooking (optional) |

THRONE OF MISCELLANIA QUEST WALKTHROUGH
Rumours have been coming back from Miscellania that all is not well, it is said that the king has been turned into a monster. An exceptional hero is required to investigate. Experience in ruling kingdoms, wooing royalty and negotiating peace would be an advantage.
Before you start, don’t kill any of the Miscellania residents, or you’ll pay the price later. It’s suspected thieving from them may also lower your popularity too.
Take the boat from Rellekka to Miscellania, make your way to the castle and attempt to enter the throne room. The guard will question you, but tell him you’re a member of the Hero’s guild and he’ll let you pass. Talk to the king and he’ll tell you of his plight. He needs a new ruler for the kingdom. In order for you to rise to this position, you need to negotiate peace with Etceteria and marry into the royal family.
Throughout the course of the quest, the king’s advisor, Ghrim, is very helpful. If you’re ever stuck, talk to him and he’ll give you information.
Negotiating peace with Etceteria: To negotiate peace with Etceteria, go and talk to their queen. After waffling a bit about her problems, she’ll eventually tell you that King Vargas doesn’t recognise Etceteria as a sovereign nation. Go back and talk to the king and he’ll inform you that Etceteria’s anthem is insulting and they have to change it. Go back to the queen and she’ll tell you to find a bard to compose a new anthem. Is so happens that King Vargas’ son, Prince brand thinks he’s a bit musical, so talk to him and he’ll give you an anthem. Turns out he’s not really very musical at all - show the queen the anthem and she’ll tell you it’s pathetic. So, take it to the ever helpful Advisor Ghrim and he’ll fix you up a better one.
Take this to Queen Sigrid and she’ll be pleased with it. She’ll give you a treaty for the King to sign. So, go back to the king and show him the treaty. Unfortunately, his hands are so malformed that he can no longer hold a pen. To the north east you’ll find a blacksmith - Derrik, who’s willing to make you a nib for a larger pen. Give him the iron bar you have and then use your log with the nib. Take the pen back to King Vargas and he’ll sign the treaty.
Marrying into the royal family: Male characters must woo the beautiful Princess Astrid, while females are chasing after the fetching Prince brand. For those of you unfamiliar with such practices, it’s not as hard as you might think - and there’s no need to be nervous either. Talk lots, and if you get stuck, go and talk with Advisor Ghrim.
For ladies: Talk to the Prince, compliment him, laugh at his jokes, tell him what he wants to hear. When you start repeating yourself, give him some flowers. Flowers can be purchased from the flower girl’s small hut. Once you’ve given him the flowers, speak some more, then compliment him on his musical ability. Do whatever he wants - dance for him and clap. Once things start to repeat again, give him some cake - he’s got a bit of a sweet tooth. Continue talking; once he starts calling you darling blow him a kiss. Continue chatting and blowing kisses, and then offer him your ring. If at any stage he says 鈥測ou’re getting a bit ahead of yourself’ then just keep talking to him and praising him.
For gentlemen: Princess Astrid loves to talk. So do so. It’s pretty obvious what’s the ‘good’ stuff to say. When she talks about dancing - do so. Chat some more - when you run out of stuff to say, give her a bow as a present - she’s a bit of a ranger so she’ll be very pleased with it. Continue chin wagging and give her some flowers. (Flowers can be purchased from the flower girl.) Continue talking, agreeing with her, until she calls you dear, at this point - blow her a kiss. She’ll giggle. Chat some more and then ask for her hand in marriage by presenting her with the ring.
Gaining the support of the people: In order for you to ascend to the throne, you must be accepted by the people. Originally, you will begin with 25% support, (unless you’ve been killing the locals.) To gain support, you must assist the locals in their activities.
You can do one or more of the following:
Assist Lumberjack Leif by chopping maple trees (requires hatchet)
Assist Fisherman Frodi by catching Tuna, Swordfish and Lobsters (requires lobster pot or harpoon)
Assist Miner Magnus by mining coal (requires pickaxe)
Assist Gardener Gunnhild in the herb garden (requires silver sickle, or 15gp to purchase an iron one)
As your popularity grows, you can check it with Advisor Ghrim. Once you reach 75% popularity, speak to the King and he’ll inform you that the population would be honoured to have you as their ruler. A ceremony will take place and you’ll complete the quest.

three initial ways to earn money in runescape
Posted by: cow // Category: Runescape Money CheatsHints: Three ways for runescape money:
There are three initial ways to earn money in runescape:
Killing things: One of the most entertaining, but not the quickest, way to earn cash. Certain monsters drop what you need. Drops varry from coins, to items [most likely something that you're too high a level for you to even consider using.] that can sell at certain shops. Selling to a shop which specializes in that item gets you more money [sell shield to shield shop, mace to mace shop ect...]. Killing players NOT recommended, you usually face other people who have that same idea in mind…
The second way, is raising skills. Raising minning, fishing, and woodcutting are popular. Woodcutting earns 5 coins a log, 25 a willow log, if you’re a member 100 coins maple, 250 coins yews, and if you’re a member, 1,000 coin magic logs. Fish sell for 100 a tuna, 200 a lobster, 300 a swordfish [VERY HARD TO BANK for non members, not recommened]. Then there’s minning, where you have to pay the most attention. Iron sells 50gp each, coal 150 each, mithril I’m a bit unsure but 450gps or so, adamant REALLY unsure but nearly 1k per, and runite 10k an ore! This gets dull after a while, but it’s a good way to start getting money or to continue in it and get to the good stuff [gets better as you reach adamant, very long though, patience a must]. If you would be interested in selling any of these items to me, I’m willing to buy :].
Last, but really the least, picking stuff up. It is the worse way of making money…but, you can do it with some risk it pays off. What I would do is wander in the wilderness [DO NOT TRUST ANYONE WHATSOEVER] and collect certain prizes. There is an area rather deep with iron and steel items [as mentioned in above posts probably] and there is also a spot in 38 or so wilderness that is partially surrounded by grass and guarded with moss giants who watch over chaos runes. These can bring in 100 or so gold each, and with proper care, you can get all 5 on the ground and find a spot where you can’t be hit. DON’T BE GREEDY, get like 50 if you can, maybe 100 tops. It’s recommended you sell in quantities of 1000 to get full price, if you try to sell ten or so people will call you a noob and no one will buy them. If you sell 1000 or more, you might be able to negotiate 110 each…but that’s a maybe. You can test out the buyers limit by saying a high price, then lowering it if it’s too costly. Picking up items can get you a small load, but if you are going to pick up chaos, GET READY TO BE WOOPED OVER AND OVER.
Hints: Santa Hat:
Kill high level monsters such as White Knight, Ice Giants, etc. on December 25.
Hints: Scife:
To get a scife in Runescape you must go to Varrock. Go to the place with a bunch of logs. Get your magic high enough to use weaken. Use weaken on the log pile. A level 22 Tree Spirit will appear. If you kill it it will drop a scife and nature runes.
Hints: Prayer level up:
Use the following trick to increase your prayer points. Gather bones off the floor and bury them to get experience in the Pray area. If you continue to do this, your Prayer points will be high enough to increase your strength or other stats. It is also good to put everything [including armor] you have in the bank. Then, go around picking up and burying bones when you cannot carry any more. There is a chicken farm near the starting point. Go northeast from the starting point to find the bridge. Cross the bridge and head north to find the chicken farm.
Hints: Computer:
First you put moneybags on your list. When it logs in, a computer will tell it your serial number and password and it print money on it like anywhere from 60,000 to 1,000,000,000 GP or you get rune item. He is usually on on saturdays and a few times during week. You can only do this 2 times on each serial number and if you do it more times you get cut off!
Hints: Oil cans:
The following is the order of switches for retrieving the oil can at Draynor Manor: A: Up, B: Up, C: Down, D: Down E: Up F: Down.
The following is the order of levers to retrieving the oil can in the basement of the castle: A: A B: B C: D D: A E: B F: E G: F H: C I: E.

Get some cabbage and go to the black knight castle. Push on walls that are called ‘Odd walls’ and drop the cabbage in a hole to complete the quest. The reward is 2,000 GP.
Hints: Silverlight:
Go to Varrock and talk to the gypsy. She will explain the quest. To undrain the key in the pipe, which is part of the quest, use a bucket of water over the drain and head for the sewer.

Items that Will Skyrocket After the PVP Worlds Come Out
Posted by: cow // Category: UncategorizedEvery time the grand exchange is updated, if an item is high in demand and low on supply (meaning that there are more people buying that people selling), the price will go up (because it’s rarity is higher), if it’s low on demand and high on supply then the price will decrease (the rarity dropped). After the new PvP worlds Jagex are releasing come out, people are definitely going to start pking again; these are items that will very like increase in value after the updates.
Manta Rays/Shark/Monk fish/Lobsters/Swordfish/Salmon/Trout
Food is the most common item for all pkers, its the most important thing for survival against other players. Usually no matter how strong you are, if you don’t have food than you will have a definite loss against someone of the same level with food. Food is required to fight, to defend, and in order to run away. Even though fishers will well be aware that the food prices will rise and they will start fishing again, more people will go buy the food.
Salmon and trout are usually used by players of lower levels that do not need better food because it is not worth the cost. Even some mid-level players may use salmon or trout when one-iteming to lose less when dying.
Potions
Many warriors will use strength potions when pking to deal extra damage per hit. The higher their strength levels, the more it will increase the strength level by. For example, a strength potion will bring level 1 to 2 and level 99 to 118. Higher leveled players usually have more money and will most likely buy more strength potions than others. A lot of players with prayer will always decide to bring a couple of prayer potions because prayer runs out quite quickly without prayer bonuses. Even with prayer bonuses, it will still eventually run out after a while.
Blood runes/Death runes/Chaos runes/Law runes/Fire runes/Air runes/Nature runes
Runescape revolves around you developing your character - that’s why it’s called an RPG - a Role Playing Game. You have various skills that are open for you to develop and increase your skill in. These skills include examples such as Fletching, Smithing, Mining, Woodcutting, Firemaking, Crafting and many more.
Here is a list of skills and what they forego:
Agility (Members): Allows you to access secret areas of the game.
Crafting: Allows you to make jewellry. Rings, Necklaces, Amulet - the lot. Amulets can be enchanted to increase combat capabilities.
Fishing: Allows you to catch various types of fish. Tuna, Swordfish, and even Sharks! The fish can be cooked and consumed to replenish health.
Hunter (new!): The hunter skill is a very interesting skill in RuneScape, giving you the ability to track, set traps, and catch all sorts of creatures that you would otherwise be unable to interact with.
Ranging: Using a bow and arrows to shoot your enemies from afar - another distinctive combat-orientated skill.
Strength: Strength is a combat-orientated skill which determines how much damage you can deal when attacking a monster.
Attack: Another combat-orientated skill which determines the accuracy of your attacks. It also gives you the ability to wield new weaponry as your attack level increases.
Defense: A combat-oriented skill which determines how often an enemy is able to hit you.
Fletching (Members): Allows you to create bows and arrows to be used to increase your Ranging skill. It also allows you to make several other useful types of weaponry.
Magic: A combat orientated skill (for the most part) that allows you to deal magic damage to your oppponents from a safe range, and also teleport from city to city!
Runecrafting: The ability to craft runes to be used for magic.
Thieving (Members): You can steal gold and other precious items from various monsters and stalls.
Construction (New - Members): Construction is a new skill in RuneScape that allows you to make all sorts of things, including toys, furniture for houses, decorations, and other cool furnishings for your own Player Owned House. You are even able to train other skills in your Player Owned House, and there are a number of cool things you can do, like have parties or build a deathtrap for other player to try to complete for a prize.
Farming (Members): Farming allows you to grow your own variety of plants which is tied in with Cooking and Herblore.
Herblore (Members): Herblore can be quite an interesting skill, allowing you to brew your own potions and mixtures by combining the correct ingredients together. Each potion has a unique effect when you drink or use it, such as curing poison, raising your defense, or adding poison to a dagger.
Mining: One of the most common practised skills in Runescape. Mine various ores and smelt them in the furnace to create metal bars. Use these metal bars in order to smith the finest armour in Runescape.
Slayer (Members): The Slayer skill is much like your Combat skill, although slightly different. This Members-Only skill allows you to fight and kill monsters that you would normally be unable to defeat without the Slayer skill and equipment.
Woodcutting: Woodcutting is the skill of cutting various types of trees that are scattered around the world of Runescape. For some, it is essential, as it provides materials for Firemaking and Fletching.
Cooking: A skill that allows you to cook various dishes and dessets. From pie to cake - yum! Eating food is the fastest way to regain hitpoints in battle.
Firemaking: If there isn’t a stove in site, firemaking is your answer. Burn various logs and cook your meals on them!
Hitpoints: A combat-orientated skill which determines how much damage you can take before dying.
Prayer: A very useful skill which is levelled through burying bones. Prayer allows you to bestow various boost to your combat skills whilst in battle.
Smithing: One of the coolest skills in my opinion. Smithing allows to you create your own armour and weapons - even the much coveted Runite armour!
Now that you have a basic outline of what each skill is about, go out and try a few find out which ones you like. Remember, some skills have a huge potential for making a lot of gold pieces in Runescape, others have a lesser potential I’d go with the skill I enjoy the most.
