I'd say magics if you chop late at night. Past 10pm there are very few choppers in seers, but if you cant chop past 10 go with yews. Your can alos chop in the gnom stronghold only one tree but next to a bank and nobody is ever there.

On average I get about 4 loads of magics in an hour, that's about 112 logs. Magics are 1K each, yews are 300 each. So you would have to cut about 375 yews an hour to make the same amount of money per hour. Never timed my yews, so....

Well im not gonna judge any of your opinions.> Ill just share mine based on personal experience..

Now, ive tried magics, even if u cut them at a place where no one is, they are awefully slow.. It depends what your going to do with them. Fletch and alch? or sell?..

Personally, i prefer yews, i go just south of the legends guild. There are 2 yew trees there.. This is faster than the 6 trees at catherby.. The reason is ive never seen anyone cut the 2 yew trees just south of the legends guild.. On top of that they are close to legends bank...

The 2 trees rarely both disappear quick, even if they do, have a knife with u, and cut regular logs to make shafts while u wait for the trees to re-appear which they never take long anyway..

Just my opinion, yours may differ, but doing it that way is best for me, 92 wc, i get money alot faster, i get yews alot faster than anywhere else.. i get the yews faster than anyone at catherby too, even if they have 99 wc.

Id go with yews, fewer people shop them early in the day, so if you have the chance, chop them then.

Magics are imposible to chop fast after school get out, theres just too many people there. You would get about 1 load every 30 - 40 minuts after school, and a load every 20 - 35 minits before.

Im 89 wc atm and im cutting a lot of yews, its going pretty quickly. i get about 100 logs every 15 - 20 minits ( that if your paying attention to your charater constantly ).

Yew longs when high alched give 768 gp, and you can get em 3 times faster then magics, so if your getting profit by alching, thet are the better choice.

Yews.

Yews. The demand for yews is simply much larger due to the number of players seeking them for fletching/firemaking. Hands down.

i'd go for yews, yes i know im not a member, but i have a bunch of member friends who can chop magics but still prefer yews..
[in fact, it seems most people prefer them =)]
