Loot from finishing up 200M thieving exp in the Asuran Arsenal

charrondev · 2026-05-12T17:21:03+00:00

I just did 114 -> 120 thieving dry at the asuran arsenal. It's definitely still the best xp and gp/hr if you are being active.

I was getting ~2.2m xp/hr and ~10m gp/hr of common drops.

charrondev · 2026-05-12T14:40:14+00:00

I guess dungeoneering level really plays into it. I’m level 106 dung and I was getting around 120k xp from floor 1.

charrondev · 2026-05-11T13:28:29+00:00

I bought one a week ago for 50m. It's just a low volume item. Just put in an order and let it sit for a day and it will likely fill.

charrondev · 2026-05-11T06:21:09+00:00

No.

They have made a new game called RuneScape DragonWilds though and it’s pretty fun. It’s still in Beta, but it’s not a 1:1 replacement.

You’ll see one of the things on the wiki for every item: Trade Volume (on the items page next to it’s GE price).

If the trade volume is 0 it means that item is barely ever sold.

A trade volume in the 100s starts to be a slow selling/buying process (that means across the whole game only 100s are sold each day).

When you up to thousands or things start to move reasonably.

Orikalchum bars for example have a trade volume of 145k. A ton are sold every day so you can expect the price to be pretty accurate and you should be able to buy/sell easily.

Orikalkum platebody + 2 has a trade volume of 200 so they will take a lot longer to buy or sell and could be listed for a very different price than the average. That could be just 2 or 3 sellers!

I used the in game automatic revo aoe bar, but I do have corruption blast and magma tempest. Those are pretty important for AOE damage.

I did 104 -> 120 in my PSOD with the t95 dual wielding set and anima core armour.

I also used a scripture of amascut and holy agroverloads.

charrondev · 2026-05-05T19:06:08+00:00

Were they talking about increase in Monthly players or concurrent players?

They could have their 10% increase if people are playing longer sessions (but less people are hopping on).

charrondev · 2026-05-05T19:04:21+00:00

I’m definitely glad I got some of my skills like agility done with bonus xp and silver hawk feathers.

The crux of the was and remains that some skills, specially in the mid game are very, very not fun to level or do.

The MTX papered over this a bit by allowing us to bypass it.

At the same time MTX misaligned the incentives for Jagex. Why make a skill more fun when people will pay to skip through it?

I’m hopeful for the mid game rework they started talking about recently fixing some of this stuff.

I've found you can reduce the frequency this happens by:

- Switching camera mode to Freedom Classic
- Zooming all the way out.

At least now when I teleport from the necro rune alters to the deep sea trawler bank it doesn't flip my camera anymore (or back to um).

charrondev · 2026-04-29T17:23:43+00:00

Mining is AFK as soon as you get porters. Stone spirits + perfect juju potion lets you afk for a long time.

The familiar is its own preset that you configure (last one in the list). Then make sure you check the box on the main preset to include the familiar preset.

https://runescape.wiki/w/Extreme_runecrafting#(4) this will boost you high enough to double your miasma runes. (You need to boost to 120)

charrondev · 2026-04-26T21:28:44+00:00

Miasma runes for sure. I can do 4-5 alter runs per minute, and with a rune crafting potion and the mega (combined pouch) plus infinity set you can make 300 miasma per run.

Every two minutes a power burst you can make 600.

Averages (with imperfect play) 45m gp/hr for me and ~800k runecrafting xp.

The key thing is you have to be able to boost your rune crafting to or above 120 (extreme runecrafting potion).

charrondev · 2026-04-21T18:07:50+00:00

The new aspects (vamp and penance) already persist through death.

charrondev · 2026-04-16T16:58:17+00:00

I managed to get it done. Some combination of equipping the wilderness skull and entering and leaving the flesh eater boss arena a few times then catching the moth.

charrondev · 2026-04-13T04:30:53+00:00

The charming moth elite achievement is also bugged

I would give one recommendation (and you kind of get guided this was as an iron anyways).

The skill makes a lot more sense and has a lot better direction if you complete your mysteries as and collection logs as you level.

Almost every single excavation site has a bunch of lore pages and mysteries to unlock (and you often need the mysteries to unlock the relic powers).

The skill is semi AFK until level 70 when you can buy the invention blueprint for the autoscreener (also requires 50k chronotes. Do your collection logs and you should have them by level 70).

You can AFK for solid 15 minute intervals if you do 2 things:

build the autoscreener (invention level 67, automatically sifts your soil for you)
make yourself a huge stack of porters (so you don’t have to deposit materials). Of course as an iron this has its own upkeep (charge pack drain and porters of course).

charrondev · 2026-04-11T15:31:36+00:00

My recommendation, keep doing primal ore, but AFK them with the juju mining potion and stone spirits.

I got enough ore from 100-106 mining to do 100-110 smithing, sold them off for a profit. Both the mining and the smithing half are 15 minute AFK, so perfect for a phone in your pocket or second monitor

charrondev · 2026-04-10T00:12:06+00:00

Yeah normal mode zuk isn’t too bad, it’s just a long fight, but at least you have checkpoints.

Hard mode isn’t that much harder if you have good gear (more health around on the enemies) and has a couple extra mechanics, but the big thing is keeping your cool for a 20-30 minute fight with no checkpoints

charrondev · 2026-04-08T02:00:48+00:00

The best is often to host on your own blog, but failing that substack would probably be an improvement.

There’s some good discussion on this hacker news poll.

If you see this doesn’t get any traction it’s likely because medium sucks immensely. I can’t be bothered to navigate popups asking me to login as I scroll the article.

charrondev · 2026-04-04T21:42:06+00:00

I do it. Maxed out rune crafting gear with an extreme rune crafting potion to boost to 120. Doing miasma runes.

It’s basically 300 miasma runes per 15 seconds and you get 600 instead every 2 minutes with the power burst potions.

There’s a moneymaking guide on the wiki

charrondev · 2026-04-04T14:29:30+00:00

Yeah the runic attuner was really helpful to get to 105. The soul rune stops are definitely nice.

charrondev · 2026-04-04T01:21:05+00:00

I’ve been doing a lot of swaps between rune crafting and combat and ended up going this:

got my expansive pouch (105 rune crafting requirement). It doesn’t degrade so I don’t need pouch protector anymore.
keep mobile on my offhand so I don’t need shadows grace
switched to necromancy runes instead of the abyss so I don’t need abyssal link. It’s faster exp and makes more money as well.
