Runescape Woodcutting Guide

This guide will make you lvl 99 in woodcutting.

Note: As you gain levels, buy better axes. They are helpful as you begin to be able to cut better trees and they make cutting A LOT quicker.

Levels 1 - 15

You can basically do this anywhere there are lots of normal logs. I suggest the western border of Varrock for it is close to a bank, and there are lots of normal trees around. When you get there, weild your axe and start cutting. You'll find you only get 1 log per tree, unfortunatly. Each normal log gives 25 exp. You should gain a couple levels, around to level 5 in the first batch and you need to cut around 97 logs to get to level 15. This shouldn't take too long, maybe 10 minutes at the least (or most).

Levels 15 - 30

At level 15, you've hopfully gotten the basics of Woodcutting down. From here, do basically what you did for getting to level 15, cut logs. But this time, cut Oak logs. Oak trees give more than 1 log per tree, which is helpful. Oak logs give 37.5 exp approx. each log. Cut the logs in Varrock, the same place as cutting the normal logs. You need to cut approx. 293 Oak logs to get to level 30.

Levels 30 - (45)60

At level 30 Woodcutting, head south from Varrock to Draynor Village (or I guess town) and begin to cut Willow Logs. You will notice, on any world, there will be lots of woodcutters there for this area is a great area to gain quick woodcutting experience. Once level 45, if you are a member, you can cut Maple logs, which are a somewhat good profit if you are poor. But, they are slow cutting when you are level 45. Back to willow logs, they give 67.5 exp per log, making it getting from level 30 to 60, you need to cut approx. 3,858 Willow logs. This can consume much of your playing time if you are just straight cutting and will take a LONG time to do. Once your level 60, give yourself a pat on the back, for you at a good point.

Levels 60 - 75

From here, you can either keep cutting Willow logs, meaning cutting about 13,877 Willow logs. This will take a HUGE amount of time, but is somewhat worth it. Anyway, once your level 60, you can cut Yew Logs which are a great way of making money. Yews give about 175 exp per log, meaning quick exp. A good place to cut them in F2P worlds is in Edgeville. They are in the ruined building. A good place for P2P is in Seers Village. They (in Seers Village) are pretty close to a bank, same in Edgeville. Getting to level 75 woodcutting from 60 cutting yew logs means cutting about 5,353 Yew Logs, more than 2 times less than the amount of cutting willow logs, but Yew Logs are twice as slow cutting, or even sometimes 3 times as slow.

Levels 75 - 99

From here, you can cut Magic Trees, which are members only. They are a slow source of exp and getting them in general when your level 75, so I suggest cutting them at level 85 or around that. A good place to cut Magic Tree's is the Tree Gnome Stronghold or Seer's Village.

hello again. i think the best way to make money on runescape is either fishing or woodcutting.
fishing- u can sell 1000 lobs for 230k
woodcutting u can sell 1000 yews for 330k
i am a member and i get up to usually 3k regular logs and fletch them. I can make 3 mill in a day.
#10 by john, Jan 6, 2008

#12 by eddy gerrero, Feb 1, 2008
im level 98 and igot 80 wc and the best trological idea to get 99 wc is to cut magic trees but ur wc needs to be 80 or hier to u can cut nearly like 10-15 about in 20min but the best way to get 99 wc is to cut willows fast exp 40 xp each
but the magic tree way is faster but it takes vbout 20mni to full inventory or 25 min and it gives u 350 xp
#13 by richman0444, Feb 2, 2008

#27 by idiot, Mar 8, 2008
runescape is a cool game, but if you want to make money here's what you really want to do...

Rob people
Sell drugs
Get a job (ect)

This should earn you some cash!
#28 by idiot, Mar 8, 2008
You know, they say that 'zezima' is like the best layer to ever live...

What?

You know, she's just a girl who spends a good 50% of her life shut up in a dark room playing runescape. I suggest that you should play runescape, but don't let it rule your life...

#41 by Fisherxou56, May 3, 2008
I dont belive that wc is a GREAT way of makeing money. I think fishing is better. If your a member or not get 20k go to karajamia (however u spell it) and keep fishing lobbys and goning back and forth to the bank util you run out of money. By then you should have 250k lobbys in the bank, sell those and ull have about 6m.
#42 by graphite234, May 8, 2008
hey this is my rs name so if ya wanna add me go ahead
[and if u wanna add me 2 ignore also feel free i probably wouldnt like u anyway]

i would have 2 say fishing is faster at making cash i have 70 fishing at 75 wc [not 2 great i know] lobs compared to yews
on f2p well lobs are faster but when u add in the time u need 2 bank..... it hardly makes a differance on p2p on the other hand i would say fishing is better.
#43 by graphite234, May 8, 2008
on f2p just do what u like better [for me this is fishing cos theres less worry about random events, and no competition for trees].
adding on to my ther post FISHING IS BETTER!!!!!
#44 by valdios x, May 17, 2008

#45 by Andy Vasey, May 29, 2008

#47 by RsWC, Jun 2, 2008
if u count the chance of getting a birds nest with tree seed in it, it can be compared to fishing as money
#48 by ???, Jun 5, 2008

#49 by Nickel680, Jun 7, 2008
Woodcut yews from 90 woodcut to level 99 woodcut. Should take aboute 1-2 or 3 months.
#50 by Jako, Jun 10, 2008
Lol your all nerds!
#51 by james, Jun 20, 2008
hey all you people, i would like to say woodcutting is kinda the same as fishing, because woodcutting, you fight over trees, and fishing, you fight over the fishing spots. So basically They're the same :D Anyways, I'm lvl 76 Woodcutting at the moment, hoping to get 99 by the end of summer =},

Good luck all in what you do in runescape And if you need any help in runescape, just add me - Glennleach - And i'll gladfully help you out with any problems you have.
#52 by laksjd44 da bomb, Jun 20, 2008
Here is my guide to 99 woodcutting. Do not listen to frederick the best.

levels 1-15: normal logs
levels 15-30: oak logs
levels 30-45: willows
levels 45-99: teaks (to cut teaks you must be a member and if you plan to cut them on ape atoll you need to beat monkey madness or atleast get a monkey greegree.

Hope you listen to this and don\'t follow that fools advice cause it's wack as hell man.

how many exp till lvl 99 woodcutting
#58 by warhammer785, Aug 8, 2008
My Woodcutting level is 68, but I stopped because I started getting in to fishing more and thought fishing sharks is better than cutting magic trees. But after reading all this I might start getting my woodcutting up again.

This is my runescape username by the way. :)
