== Fishing for Whales (Max 1140/hr) ==
The Skill requirements listed in each method are the ''minimum'' required, and you will often struggle to reach the maximum rates without higher levels in the respective skills for things like [[Skillcapes]], or the ability to make boosts from other Skills.
== Requirements ==
* [[Aorpheats Signet Ring]]
* [[Fishing Skillcape]]
* [[Amulet of Fishing]]
* [[Dragon Fishing Rod]]
* Level 99 [[Whale]] [[Mastery]]
== Method ==
Equip your best [[Fishing]] gear and fish for [[Whale|Whales]]. The equipment isn't entirely necessary, however each piece will give a substantial boost to your profit per hour. 65 Whale Mastery is the most important level milestone, which will remove the junk catch chance. Since update v0.14 [[Fishing]] has become one of the most profitable money making methods.


== Fletching Magic Longbows (Max 975k/hr) ==

By utilizing the output doubling of the [[Fletching Skillcape]], the value of [[Magic Logs|magic logs]] can be more than quadrupled; it is doubled once making unstrung bows, and another time making strung bows. Profits can be further increased by using [[Skilled Fletching Potion IV]] and [[Aorpheats Signet Ring]]. For the purpose of calculating the maximum [[GP]] per hour, 99 mastery level will be assumed. The entire process is as follows:

# Purchase [[Bowstring|bowstrings]] from the [[Shop]] and fletch the unstrung bows into [[Magic Longbow]].
# Sell the longbows for profit.
Without using [[Aorpheats Signet Ring]] and [[Skilled Fletching Potion IV]] you can earn around 624k/hr, however using the ring and potion increases your profits by 351k/hr.
 
 
== Mining with Gem Gloves (Max 496k/hr Idle) ==
=== Requirements ===
* 500k gp to purchase [[Gem Gloves]]
=== Improves GP Rate ===
* The [[Mining Skillcape]] provides additional coal to sell
* Higher tier [[Shop#Pickaxes|Pickaxes]] increase the rate that ore is mined
* Higher [[Mastery]] levels for an ore allow you to mine more before it needs to respawn
* [[Adamantite Ore]] provides the highest idle gp rates when all ore is sold
* Actively switching to the highest tier [[Mining#Ores|ore]] yields higher gp rates
=== Method ===
This method relies on [[Gem Gloves]] increasing the gem chance to 100% when mining (excluding [[Rune Essence]]). The average value of a [[Mining#Gems|gem]] is 381.25 gp, while a single charge of the [[Gem Gloves]] costs only 250 gp. Thus an additional 131.25gp of profit is earned per mining action. It is recommended to use this method while gathering the large quantities of ore required to train the [[smithing]] skill.
 
== Chopping Magic Logs (Max 444k/hr) ==
=== Requirements ===
* Level 75 [[Woodcutting]]
=== Improves Gp Rate ===
* Higher tier [[Shop#Axes|axes]] increase the rate that trees are chopped
* The [[Multi-Tree]] upgrade allows you to also cut [[Yew Logs]] for additional profit
* The [[Woodcutting Skillcape]] doubles the rate that trees are chopped
* Higher levels of log [[Mastery]] increase the chance to receive double the amount of logs
 
=== Method ===
Simply cut down [[Magic Logs]] and [[Yew Logs]] (if you have the multi-tree upgrade) and sell the logs for profit.
 
== Mining Dragon Ore (Max 162k/hr) ==
Mining [[Dragonite Ore]] is one of the best late game money making method. It requires 95 mining and 270 total mastery in mining. The rate at which you earn money using this method is dependent upon the pickaxe level you have bought, as well as the mastery you have in mining dragon ore. This is because the pickaxe increases mining speed and the mastery level determines the amount of ore you can extract from a rock before it has to heal.
 
Please note that using mining gloves is currently not worth it. This is because the gloves cost more per ore mined than you will gain by selling that extra ore.

== Combat ==
Combat can yield some of the highest gp rates in the game, but may require active work or outside automation to prevent the player from dying. Due to the complexity of combat exact rates are difficult to determine, but some of the highest gp rate targets are as follows: [[Volcanic Cave]], [[Master Farmer|Master Farmers]], [[Black Dragon|Black Dragons]].
