Improves GP Rate
- Making diamonds into Diamond Luck Potions with the Herblore Skillcape more than doubles their value. This requires:
- Aorpheats Signet Ring for a 10% chance to double ore, bar, platebody and potion gains
- Perfect Swing Potions to increase the idle rate that ore can be mined at.
- Increasing Mastery Level of items provide additional resource saving and doubling benefits.
Method
- Gather Dragonite Ore, Runite Ore and Coal Ore in a 1:2:6 ratio. This should be done wearing the Mining Skillcape. Depending on Mastery Levels and whether or not Diamond Luck Potions are being made, either Gem Gloves or Mining Gloves should be worn.
- Make Dragonite Bars while wearing the Smithing Skillcape.
- Make Dragon Platebodies
- Make the diamonds into Diamond Luck Potions with the Herblore Skillcape if possible.
- Sell the Gems, Diamond Luck Potions and Dragon Platebodies for profit
GP Rates with different Equipment and Mastery
The mastery in the tables below assume that every item has that mastery level. Note that the time to gather the ingredients for and make Perfect Swing Potions has not been included in the calculation due to it being negligible. It is also assumed that the Barrentoe Herbs for creating Diamond Luck Potions is grown concurrently during the money making method, and do not add additional time.

Calculating the GP Rate
The gp rate can be calculated by finding the profit of completing a single platebody action and dividing by the time to complete the action and gather/craft all sub components.
Fishing for Whales (Max 1142k/hr)
Requirements
- Level 95 Fishing
Improves GP Rate
- Dragon Fishing Rod
- Amulet of Fishing
- Fishing Skillcape
- Aorpheats Signet Ring
- Level 99 Raw Whale Mastery: no junk, chance of double items
Method
Equip Fishing gear and fish for Whales. Each piece of equipment will give a substantial boost to profit per hour. 65 Whale Mastery is the most important level milestone, which will remove the junk catch chance. Fishing is the most profitable single-skill money making method, though it gets outclassed by the multiplicative benefits of the combinations above.
Fletching Magic Longbows (Max 975k/hr)
Requirements
- Level 99 Woodcutting
- Level 99 Fletching
- Dragon Axe Upgrade
- Multi-Tree Upgrade
- Woodcutting Skillcape
- Fletching Skillcape
- (Optional) Aorpheats Signet Ring
- (Optional) Skilled Fletching Potion IV
Method
By utilizing the output doubling of the Fletching Skillcape, the value of 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:
- Cut yew logs and magic logs simultaneously while wearing the Woodcutting Skillcape. The yew logs should be sold.
- Fletch the magic logs into Magic Longbow (u) while wearing the Fletching Skillcape.
- Purchase 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 profits are around 624k/hr, however using the ring and potion increases profits by 351k/hr.
Mining with Gem Gloves (Max 796k/hr Idle)
Requirements
- 500k gp to purchase Gem Gloves
Improves GP Rate
- The Mining Skillcape provides additional coal to sell
- Higher tier Pickaxes increase the rate that ore is mined
- The Master of Nature god upgrade decreases the mining interval by 20%
- Higher Mastery levels for an ore allow it to be mined more before it needs to respawn
- Perfect Swing Potions can increase idle gp rates by decreasing the amount of time spent waiting for ores to respawn
- Mining and selling Adamantite Ore provides the highest gp rate when using Perfect Swing Potion III and below. When using Perfect Swing Potion IV, Dragonite Ore provides the highest gp rate.
- Actively switching to the highest tier 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 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.
Note: The maximum rate ignores the crafting time of Perfect Swing Potion IV.
Chopping Magic Logs (Max 1213k/hr)
Requirements
- Level 75 Woodcutting
Improves Gp Rate
- Higher tier axes increase the rate that trees are chopped
- Bird Nest Potions increase the rate at which bird's nests are gained
- Clue Chasers Insignia can further increase the rate of bird's nests
- The Multi-Tree upgrade allows the player to also cut a second log for additional profit
- If the player is using Bird Nest Potion I or no potions Yew Logs should be cut
- If the player is using Bird Nest Potion II or above, Normal Logs should be cut
- The Master of Nature god upgrade increases the gp rate by 25%.
- 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 your chosen secondary log (if the Multi-Tree upgrade has been purchased) and sell the logs and bird's nests for profit. If using Bird Nest Potions a portion of the nests can be opened for Potato Seeds in order to make more potions.
Note: The maximum gp rate assumes that the player already has the Bird Nest Potions made.
Combat
Template:OldStrategy 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 Farmers, Black Dragons.
