Step One- The Short-Haul Skilling
Money doesn’t grow on trees. If you are just starting out, you can’t expect to become a millionaire straight away. However, this is the only part of the guide which requires some effort. When you begin a new character, level up a non-combat skill, and use it to make a couple of
coins
, such as 1-2k. I would suggest mining, as clay can be mined right from the start and gives a good payout. But if you have already done the starter quest, and you got the Woodcutting exp instead, then that would do just fine, albeit a slightly slower method. As I said before, make a couple of 1000 gold, then head to Varrock, and The Grand Exchange, which is where the process really starts.
Step Two- The Grand Exchange
Since the introduction of the trade limit, many have given up on the prospect of becoming millionaires. However, The Grand Exchange has in fact increased the chances of luxury. With your gold, find the most expensive item that you can afford. Then, set the keep the price at the one given to you. After a while, you will make the purchase. With them item, change to world 1 and sell it at the highest price. It must be something in demand, or something that nobody else is selling. It might be wise to check this beforehand, to save the trouble. DO NOT re-sell it for the maximum price, nobody will buy it. Just add around 500gp onto how much you paid for it. Start out slow.
When you make the sale, buy the next best item available to your budget, rinse and repeat. Very soon, you will be able to afford rune items. Any will do, they are always in demand, but avoid daggers and warhammers. Rune Scimitars are by far the best item to merchant, currently. Buy one for 32-33.25k, then sell for 36-40k. The price varies upon your buyer. Look at his armour/clothes, then look at his level. Judge accordingly, then give him a price that would suit. After making enough money of scimitars, buy two at a time, then three etc. Soon you will be selling them in batches of 7 or 8. At this point, it’s time to move on.
Step Three- God Armour and Party Hats
At this point, you have three choices. You can stop merchanting, and sit on your gold. You can continue with the Scimitar Method, or you can the cheapest part of god/trimmed armour that you can find (no skirts), and do the process in step one of incremental profit, but on a much larger scale. I choose the third, normally, and its ALWAYS pays off. I bought a Rune Full Helm (t), at first, and sold it for a 50k profit almost immediately. This is the item to start with. Gradually, you will be able to afford better, and more coveted armour pieces (zamorak plate-body, saradomin plate-legs etc). Items such as these create massive profit, 100k a sale on average. This will mean that before you know it, whole trimmed and god armour sets can are affordable. Buy, then sell off the parts, to those ridiculously-high levels who are desperate for that last piece of the set. There are ALWAYS people such as these, so don’t give up. You earned those millions!
Finally
I was going to say that after alot of hard work, it must have all paid off. But it wasn’t hard work at all! From this guide, I hope you can see how easy and exploitable Runescape’s economy is, despite all the rules. To give yo a scale of time, I followed these steps, before publishing, to ensure its validity. In 5 days, I already had the Zamorak Plate-body. In the two days afterwards, playing half an hour each day, I had a whole set of Zamorak armour. So finally, I hope you implement the techniques in this guide, and I look forward to trading party hats with you!
