The 10 Best Skilling Money Makers in Oldschool Runescape! [OSRS]

Making money while skilling is something that has slowly been disappearing from oldschool runescape. Thanks to PvM, the majority of skilling money makers have been devalued over the years.
That said today I am going to show you the best and most profitable skilling methods that still exist in osrs. Many of these will have reasonably high requirements, as to avoid the rampant botting issue, but some are still very accessible to mid levels. I will be going over 10 of the most profitable skilling methods. I have used most of these mehods, and a few I have used all the way to 99.

I'm glad to see Zalcano on this list. I actually made the wiki page for it :)

[@Epidombe]

Thanks for your work, brother

[@Kamil_O]

thanks,

[@liddyyamaha36]

Thank you. Actually a fun piece of content that’s overlooked

[@omarmansour3785]

Thankss🫰🏻

[@elisteele574]

Every time I watch one of these guides from you I learn something and enjoy the process. Very well done, sir.

[@jtheninja5555]

The inventory viewer plugin on runelite is essential for the soft clay method

[@BejibiTV]

I gotta say, you drop content the moment I need it. Was just looking on wiki for mm

[@MrKrill7]

Great video! Thanks for the advanced tips! :D

[@crush9262]

[@measdf101]

Bank shift click is amazing I learn something new every day, thank you for all the vids/tips

[@ronpugsley6137]

Another good method is crafting redwood birdhouses. It requires 90 crafting which is kinda steep but you can make about 700k an hour with current prices and its also way more afk than tanning hides with magic. The only downside is the birdhouses sometimes take a while to sell but so far they haven't taken more than 3 hours to sell. You also get okay crafting XP as well.

[@jumpyjunior1642]

Thanks for this, been thinking about getting back into the game lately, and seeing as I have about 5m to get back on my feet this will help a lot xD

[@stephenmoney4722]

while casting Humidify, the white lightning flash animation above your sprite is the indicator that the animation is done

Jagex has forgotten about Skilling, it's only pvm now 😓

[@kailashbtw9103]

Loved the vid! just btw an easier way to time humidify and plank make, stay on magic screen the whole time and turn on inventory viewer! then its easy to watch it, opening bank automatically goes to inventory. that way you dont need to press any hot keys for this!

[@T_Lorentzen]

The elf south of the house portal never leaves his house, giving him a roaming range of 2x2 tiles.

[@Terminally_Radical]

For soft clay, I usually don't bother with checking my inventory. I check for a point in humidify's animation, I believe it's when the cloud begins to actually rain. Then I bank and start again without ever touching my f keys.

[@stevestrock8690]

After you cast, you can spam the bank. If you want to be more efficient, you can bank on xp drop.

[@ninjerch]

Do you find this is actually a good moneymaker anymore? I bought 1 clay for 97gp, 1 astral rune for 57gp (so 154gp cost in total), then sold the soft clay at 137gp. Seems like a loss now? I guess it's just changed since the video was released...

Can we get timestamps on these videos? I want to be able to skip forward to the methods that apply to me

[@Zeptil]

I recently started my theiving grind and was at vyres from 82-85 managed to get lucky with a blood shard drop! Highly recommend it to anyone looking to do theiving. If you intend to do vyres I suggest using the house to the right if the entrance of the sepulchre, there is a wine spawn which can significantly extend trips by using the redemption method and chugging that afterwards

with the humidify you dont need to change from your spellbook ever, just wait until you see the flash of lightning or hear the sound of the thunder then bank, when you close the bank it goes back to the spellbook :)

can you do this for ironmen too? One of my favorite money making methods as an ironman is charging battlestaffs for crafting/magic xp and 2k profit per alch

[@dylanalst3869]

maybe a stupid question but how do you make a one click on the dragonhide so you get iventory full / and how do you deposit invenory without the cashstack and the nature runes and astral runes then ? sorry i am kinda noob

Dont blame PvM, blame Jagex making monsters drop loads of raw resources

[@eurosonly]

Ya I love the idea of taking down big baddies for unique rewards but when they drop an hours worth of magic logs or Flax really kills the hype seeing as how I've spent months chopping down magic trees in order to be able to afford the gear to take down these bosses.

[@griffz928]

@@eurosonly Exactly, it kills skilling. Like it makes sense to drop related resources, say like if Sarachnis dropped a bunch of red spiders eggs or something, but when a demon bear drops 60 coconuts its kinda weird

[@JalebJay]

I'm lost, where are the Chinchompas?

[@qturay3325]

black chinchompas are easily 1.1-1.2m an hour. i was waiting for him to mention it earlier in the guide but oh well. More for us right

[@georgiegan]

Boss dropping hundreds of resources per kill, that would have taken significantly longer time to gather with skills, really devalues gathering skills. Why spend 30 minute gathering and banking ores or logs, when you can get hundreds of it from a 3 minute boss kill.

[@eurosonly]

Not to mention that people are going to just start skipping the skilling grind and buy gold on black market sites to get needed gear for bosses and just do those as the main game play experience.

[@BigDeen509]

I’ve been hard stuck 2-6 mil for the past 3 months of playing. From spending gp on skill lvls and buying bonds lol

Sephulchre is my jam, very fun.

[@NahBNah]

I want to try it but I'm afraid since I've heard it's hard

[@oposdeo]

@@NahBNah The worst part is the boss fight of Sins of the Father required to enter. It's a very safe activity that will only ever deal a couple of HP to you, and you can teleport out if needed. After a short while you can get a ring which negates damage, and then you're completely safe to learn. My recommendation is to pull up a guide, learn how it works, watch someone go through the first floor optimally, and then keep trying the first floor until you've got it down, then the second floor, etc.. I keep the metronome plugin on and in the middle of my RuneLite client to help with timing the ticks on the flame traps, and the player true tile indicated plugin to make it clear where my character is located. You'll pick it up quickly and it's much more engaging agility activity than rooftops.

[@Wc3ProElimZ]

One of the best decisions of my life was making a level 3 skiller. I found a nice clan with a youtuber, made some new friends, and all my sustain is from skilling. After combat maxing my main, it all got so boring and I missed the feeling of grinding skills for something meaningful.

It’s not that i dislike pvm. Literally getting my first vorkath kill and my fire cape are 2 of my favourite moments from playing this game, but the reality is that runescape has like 16 non combat skills and all of them are useless except agility. They don’t necessarily have to be super profitable, but so many skills are just dead content aside from diary rewards. Woodcutting, fishing, mining, herblore, smithing, etc. All of these are skills you only level for quests and diaries. There is no merit in training them for any other reason.

[@polentusmax6100]

Best thing you can do after getting membership is making ultracompost at ge. Once you make 450k gp daily, start grinding hunter to be able to do bird houses and chimchompas to replace the previous money method. You can start grinding farming to farm toadflax and jute, and make ultracompost on the farming bins, to have another money maker method. You can do blast furnace BUT it have some requirements and it takes too much time to get a coal bag, only start there if just want smelt iron ( that dont require a 17 hour grind to have a coal bag to smelt anything above steel). After these, only then you can start enjoying gilenor. Forget about everything else, the MOST IMPORTANT thing is FIRST secure your daily money maker, exploration cames second. If you want to grind some umprofitable skills, remember that some f2p methods are good exp and you dont need sacrifice membership days (450k daily) in the gring, like: salmon fishing/cooking, woodcuting and droping logs, power mining iron in Al kharid, making wine, smithing platebodies. Train these after your membership runs out and you have money to buy another bond. Dont buy expensive gear, even sell your crappy rune gear to secure buying a bond if necessary. Only when you can buy your second bond you can say you left f2p.
