Going F2p. Need some help

Wo the beast · **Posted:** July 28th, 2009, 12:19 am

Hey guys, no luck getting my main account back. He got key logged last week. Jagex is being Jagex, so I don't think I'm getting him back :evil:

. They fished my recoveries so I really don't have much to go on.
Well, that brings me to my point. I'm going to go F2P on a fresh account, but I don't know what skill to level. I want to get 99 before I go members again. I was thinking woodcutting, but that seems slightly too macroe'd for me. Can I get some advice?

Woodcutting's great. Hardly any macros anymore.

Runecrafting is good, too.

yeah there aren't any macroers anymore because of all the updates in the past year and a half, cooking is also good if you have the money.

Runecrafting isn't really a great option for getting a 99 in f2p. I suggest either cooking or woodcutting. Another nice 99 for f2p would be mining if you don't mind camping the mining guild for about a year. :p

Make sure you get rid of all useless items in your bank. We only have 68 bank spaces, and that can be a problem if you have a bunch of members items.

He's going f2p on a fresh account so he shouldn't worry about that :wink:

Also keep in mind that 99s are a lot harder to het in f2p because they methods are much much slower.

Right. Don't know what I was thinking about lol. #-o

Woodcutting is a good place to start, fishing and cooking as well. Mining is not as useful, but it's still about as easy to train in f2p. Runecrafting and Crafting I would NOT recommend, they have very little use in F2P.

However, Combat will be something very useful to train in f2p until you're about level 90 or so, then if you want to get members, it will be a lot faster there.

Woodcutting is a good place to start making money. I'd try that first.

You could do fishing. When you reach about 50-60 you could start fly fishing in barbarian village. Pretty fast method if you drop the fish.

cooking or fming is probably easiest and least money invovled powertraining it. magic is also a posibility but it takes forever in f2p.

mineing if you powermine iron

thats real nice moneymaker as you go through it and eventually do adamant

Woodcutting is a great start. Very quick and easy to level if you got the time and a great way to make money if you do yews. :wink:

I think you should Woodcut and keep all your logs so when you go to members you'll basically have 99 fletching...But if you want to sell your logs you'll also have enough money for 99 cooking so either way you get two 99's out of 99 Woodcutting

ufrubnuckle · **Posted:** August 13th, 2009, 6:51 pm

I recommend woodcutting and saving all your yews till you go mem and fletch them =)

And then alch it all XD

I can't believe no one has suggested firemaking yet... good speed, only costs at most 4 million and no need to worry about selling left overs like cooking. Barely any faster in members, where almost all other skills are considerably faster with membership. Only reason I can think of to do other skills is to create some money for when you become a member again.

Sorry to hear about your lost account

Firemaking is probably the easiest or cooking. U should try for magic or woodcutting is pretty good too.

I would say a good one to get might be magic because you don't see many ftp with 99 mage. You can actually 99 mage free using high alch.

There is a site http://alchprices.com/index.php And it says all of the items you can alch with no loss buying everything and that would be good for ftp.

Woodcutting and cooking would be nice also if magic isn't your thing. Also don't get discouraged because you won't have a skillcape, there are rumors that jagex will make some ftp skil capes so be on the lookout!
