Five Ways Noobs on RuneScape Try to Make Money

I will explain how you shouldn't try to make money, and what ways are downright not accepted by other players. Or at least tell you to not kill anymore chickens for their gold!

Before I begin, I want to say that the term “noob” or “newb-ie” refers to people who are new to something; however, most people think it is a type of insult. Also, this may help people who are newcomers, to well, not make the mistakes I did when I was a noob.

  1. First of all, most of us who will be honest to ourselves will agree that we have been killed before. Maybe it was in bounty hunter or even just a wild creature (maybe you died from a lvl 126 revenant ghost in the wilderness). So, after you die you obviously spawn at Lumbridge, and you see many, many, maaaany low level noobs (yes, there are also high lvled noobs). Even though I don't die very often (lol), I always see lots and lots of noobs killing Goblins, and that's a no no. You have to start somewhere, I know, but please, don't waste your time trying to make money off them. Most say, “I'm saving up for full rune and a rune battle axe”… heh yeah right, like you are ever going to get the requirements from killing goblins??? You'll get lucky to make 500g a day much less get the 24k needed for a rune battle axe, not including the 140k full rune.
  2. The fourth worst way a noob could make money is to be a feather or hide gatherer. That is done by simply killing chickens or cows for their feathers or hide, then selling them. You might average 3k a day, but that's only if you can even get a decent price. Don't kill chickens for their gold. It's a complete waste of time.
  3. Ever had thousands of bronze, iron, or even steel arrows and when you start training your range a mob comes to pick them up? Eh, they're pretty much shouting, “We're poor losers who don't want to work, so we'll just take this guys arrows and make 500g per hour”. Some lvl 70-90's have done that to me and its reeaaally annoying. By the time they've picked up, say, 300, I could've made 25k by rune crafting to buy another 5k bronze arrows. Even at bounty hunter, it's not just arrows but food from your kill or maybe even a set of iron armor. Eww.
  4. Dancing may be (in the very slightest form) fun, but I seriously don't think anyone will waste their time to give a dancer 10-100gp. Maybe that's just my opinion; however, if you are making well over 100k an hour dancing, then by all means excuse me and please consider not reading anymore. Dancing also wastes time in your life that you'll never get back, which brings me to the #1 BIGGEST no no…
  5. Begging, is the worst, most annoying and repulsive way to make money in RuneScape. Actually, let me correct that last sentence. It's the worst, most annoying and repulsive way not to make money in RuneScape. Honestly, unless they are the type that just LOVES everyone, no one will give beggars any money. Even if it's like 50gp, they shouldn't get too excited because they are still a long way from steel armor. People don't like beggars following them and doing what beggars do… begging. Actually, people don't really like beggars at all. It's just a fact.

Well, that pretty much sums it up. Once again, I'm not trying to insult you, but to let you know the facts of RuneScape.
