Merching 101 and getting your returns cheaply
Pal liked a topic by Chip Dump
Thought I'd make a really basic guide to how to buy your PK supplies cheaply. Quick 101 on merching (I know a fair few of you know this - it's intended for those who don't). Say you're just joining Foe and you need to buy yourself 1k team-30 capes, 1k hats, and a bunch of returns for your app. If you insta buy a bunch you're losing money to a guy merching them, but you can get them cheaper. This guide will show you how in buying just 3 items you can spend 4.8m instead of 5.5m - 13% less. Here's how: Buy one cape (for, say, 50% more than the price). Sell that cape back to the GE (for, say, 50% below the price). We just need to know the current prices for the cape (you can see these in the history option in the GE) So we buy the cape for 500ea, but the GE is buying them for 260-ea. We can now "snipe" this person buying out the team-30 capes (and most likely selling them for almost double) by putting in an offer for our capes at 261ea. Sorry, EP, your hustle is over. In buying 1k, you spend 261k, instead of 500k. This obviously works for all your supplies. It only takes a second but you can pick up stuff for a hell of a lot cheaper than you would otherwise. If you're short money, make it a habit and you can get your returns for a huge amount less than you would otherwise and it literally takes 5 seconds to check the prices. If you click the low offer (the 260 above, it immediately sends you to the buy screen in the GE - just bump it up by 1gp and buy however many supplies you need). Items are straightforward, but potions you can get a big saving from if you know how. (3) pots sell for less than (4) pots do, and the guy south west of the GE will decant them into (4) doses for you at no cost (takes 2 seconds). Take range pots, for example: Insta buy 1k range pot (4)s and you're spending 506k. The margins aren't really worth it to bother buying them at 503, but you can instead by the (3)s and decant them. You need 1333 range pot(3)s, at 314ea, to make 1k range pot (4)s. That's 418k, a saving of 90k (or about 20% cheaper). If you're lazy, even insta-buying them at 338ea will turn you a profit/saving: it costs 450k to insta-buy the (3)s and you can sell them instantly for 502ea (50k for less than a minute's work - and you shaft the merchers!) For those of you wanting to turn a profit this way, the buy limit every 4 hours is 2k pots. I easily made 10m an hour previously doing this, including with blood runes and scales, etc. It works for basically all pots. As another example, anti-venoms: 1.333k (3)s cost 4.15m, while 1k (4)s cost 4.476m - a difference of 300k. So just in 3 examples, instead of spending 5.5ish mil on 3 lots of items, we will have spent 4.8m. If you leave these offers in your bank while doing something else, that's a tidy 700k made with literally 3 minutes worth of work at the GE (assuming your prices aren't sniped also!) This is the very basics of merching. I don't really do this nowadays but when I first started back in OSRS I was sick of being broke and spun up 5m into 350m in literally 2-3 weeks, just trading in these items, and things like teleports. PK supplies are the items with the best margins. Merchers basically prey on us for quick profits because pures normally don't give a fuck or are in a rush. So if you're short cash or just want to get better profit/h doing shit like Zulrah, it's well worth buying at the proper price, rather than being rinsed for everything you buy for a few seconds' laziness. If you've got this far, thanks! Give me a shout if you'd be interested in an hour long video trying to flip 10m into 20m.1 like -
Breaking the meta: A better and profitable AFK training method
X WE ARE138 liked a topic by Chip Dump
So, the meta right now for training a pure is go sand crabs, then go NMZ for melee and range. This costs you a ton in GP and it's slow, and while it's AFK, it's not as AFK as it could be. Thought I'd throw out an idea about a method that'll work for you if you have decently high pray (I know it works, I have 5k kills and already 80 herb on my iron): With a few requirements out of the way, this method will enable you to: AFK for longer (you need only do something when you deplete your whole prayer); not use pray pots; make up to 600k gp/h; and most importantly, get a 20% boost on your accuracy and damage -- and no, 1-deffers, you don't need a slayer helm! Requirements: Haunted mine + completion of tarn's lair - required for salve e Slayer rings (75 crafting) Ardy easy diaries done, or house tabs with an altar 61 agility, or 56 at a push Decent attack (75+ ideally) - abberant spectres have base defense so I wouldn't come with low attack - or decent range 60 slayer Ideally, herb sack, but this isn't essential (it's more AFK with, as you need to bank only once after 10+ trips) Method: 1. Teleport to slayer tower -> slayer ring teleport (opt-2) 2. Climb up the spikey chain and run slightly east. 3. Pot, and stand and AFK around this area in the slayer tower and leave your account there. They are aggressive for 10 mins. Turn on notifier for valuable drops (setup explained below). 4. When prayer notifier (again explained below) warns you you have only a few prayer points remaining, use your Ardy Cloak to go to Ardougne Monastery (a few tiles away). Or recharge your pray at the your POH. - This is quite literally a 5 second return 5. Repeat If you want to treat it like NMZ and bring ppots go ahead - at least here you'll make more than your money back, if you bring a herb sack (and a gem bag if you have one). Use my guide on effectively AFK training here as a bolt-on: From 75 to 99 strength done here, you could, based on math by Mr No Sleep, make about 50-60m gp profit - enough to buy you 99 range from 85. That's leaving some of the less valuable drops on the floor. He made 20m from 10,000 kills - this method from 75 to 99 would require 32k kills. Required plugins in Runelite: IDLE NOTIFIER "Idle notification delay" determines how AFK it will be - in multiples of 1000 for each second. At this setting, if your account is out of combat for 10 seconds, it'll highlight it and bring the screen to the front. "Prayer notification" tells you when your pray is about to run out. Set this at whatever level works best for you when afking. You can have it so that it notifies as your pray drops, when set to 1. GROUND ITEMS You can copy and paste the following into your highlighted items, based on the drops list: Only the most valuable (most AFK): Lava battlestaff, Adamant platelegs, Rune full helm, Mystic robe bottom (dark), Grimy ranarr weed, Snapdragon seed, Snape grass seed, Torstol seed, Dragon spear, Rune spear, Tooth half of key, Loop half of key, Shield left half If you want to be notified for anything worth 1k+, use: Lava battlestaff, Adamant platelegs, Rune full helm, Mystic robe bottom (dark), Grimy ranarr weed, Snapdragon seed, Snape grass seed, Torstol seed, Dragon spear, Rune spear, Tooth half of key, Loop half of key, Shield left half, Mithril kiteshield, Grimy avantoe, Grimy cadantine, Grimy kwuarm, Grimy lantadyme, Grimy irit leaf, Cadantine seed, Lantadyme seed, Uncut diamond Gear setup: Take your best melee or range gear but consider also your pray bonuses. It's really down to you whether you want to favour pray bonuses (more AFK) or xp/h (less AFK). Helm: Slayer helm or nosepeg Amulet slot: Salve e or salve ei (if ranging) Ammo slot: Blessing or ammo Weapon slot: Rapier or other melee weapon, or blowpipe/bow Shield slot: If open, holy book or defender (if going for dps) Armor slots: Monk robes every time, or vestment robes - it matters not for either range or melee. Ring slot: Ring of the gods, archers ring, or berserker ring Boots: Manacles, rangers or devout boots Example of a damage-focused load-out: Note: I would probably use an imbued ring of the gods when ranging but I don't have one. Hope this helps people, incl. those who don't think they have the cash to max a pure. LMK if I miss anything. If you like the guide smash like please 😉1 like -
