Steps

Level
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology up to
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Ameria and get Ameria to 80 mastery.
That will give you access to 3 basic astrology bonuses and 2 unique bonuses. Use the dust you got from leveling Astrology to roll some
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Fishing bonuses in
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Ameria.
In Standard Modifiers, aim for at least 5% total Fishing XP bonus. In Unique Modifiers, aim for at least 5% Special Chance increase or 3% Interval Reduction otherwise.
Level
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Fishing. Do it until you get both the skill and mastery rings. You will probably hit
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Level 99 by the time it happens. Keep Diamonds. Sell anything else. Now it shouldn't be an issue to spend money on any of the
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Fishing Rods,
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Multi-Tree upgrade, and so on.
- Fish Raw Magic Fish for money, or Whales if you don't have Message in a Bottle yet,
- Redeem Skeleton Fish for

  Prayer points,
- Fish Seahorses for "speed" if you want more drops per hour.
Level
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology further. Equip the mastery ring and level
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Deedree to 80 or 99 mastery. In
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Ameria, roll for some
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Firemaking bonuses.
Level
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Woodcutting and
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Firemaking. Our goal is
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Level 99 for the Skillcape. As soon as you get Redwood Logs, save all of them. Only burn Yew Logs to get Firemaking to 99. Skip Magic Logs. This means
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
double axe-ing Redwood and Yew.
- Level
  Error creating thumbnail: File missing
  Summoning. Make a bunch of
  Error creating thumbnail: File missing
  Ents for your woodcutting. Try to always have Ents going. You will get more wood and, more importantly, level summoning.
- Level
  Error creating thumbnail: File missing
  Farming. Open your birds nests. Start farming. Keep Strawberry Seeds for thieving potions. Keep Watermelons for
  Error creating thumbnail: File missing
  Agility.
- Level
  Error creating thumbnail: File missing
  Agility. Second obstacle has a Firemaking bonus, and a third one has a wood/fire bonus. Definitely get these as you get to
  Error creating thumbnail: File missing
  Level 30 and
  Error creating thumbnail: File missing
  Level 30 for the requirements.
Back to
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Astrology. Level it to
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Level 99.

At this point, you have an 8% skill ring, a 5% skill cape, and a bunch of other bonuses. Jump back to

Fletching

would probably be next for the Dragon Javelin money-making method, which is one of the best in the game. That's where you will use your saved Redwood Logs.
