Introduction

This page goes through the general method and tips of training the Woodcutting skill. Woodcutting is used to generate logs which are primarily used in the skills Firemaking and Fletching.

Equipment

There is no requirement to start Woodcutting. One should always use the best Axe available for purchase in the Shop.

Also available in the Shop is Multi-Tree which allows two trees to be cut at the same time, increasing the experience and logs gained per hour.

Training

It is recommended to chop the two highest trees available, avoiding Magic Trees.
Selling logs is possible to make it possible to purchase Axes or Multi-Tree, but this might slow down Firemaking so keeping some is advisable. It is also possible to sell Bird Nests produced, which are worth more unopened on average compared to selling the seeds after opening.
