Dodo Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 This guide will focus purely on XP rates and assumes you have level 99 in all skills and all Velheim perks. If you would rather AFK and have a more relaxed journey to 200M, try my AFK guide. XP rates listed are rough estimates of RS3 base rates. Multiply them by your game mode rate (2/5/50/200) to estimate yours. Feel free to message me in-game for any questions. I'm also pretty responsive in the 'Help' FC.

Dodo Posted January 18, 2021 Author Share Posted January 18, 2021 Miscellaneous Invention Level fishing rod-o-matics to level 10 and disassemble General Tips - Try to always wear Silverhawk boots whenever it doesn't detract from the XP rates of the other skill you're training. The best way to train agility is to never actually train agility. - Try to use brawling gloves whenever possible. It's at minimum a 50% increase in XP and it stacks multiplicatively with many other boosts. - Remember to do Warbands. They happen every 7 hours. (Mining is best because it has lowest XP rates) - Diamond Donation Zone houses many QoL improvements for players looking to improve XP gain rates. - Guthixian Caches occur at the same time every hour. This changes every time there is a server update. So if you participate in a cache that begins at 4:20, the next cache will begin at 5:20. - Ancient Effigy rolls are nondeterministic. You can keep triggering the skill rolls until you get the pair that you want. - Always use presets whenever possible. They save you a ton of time, especially for artisan skills. - You can still train fletching or disassemble for invention components while AFKing Castle Wars for Thaler. - You can convert protean resources to the ones you need (cogs are useless IMO) - You can obtain Brawling Gloves outside of the wilderness by thieving in Prifddinas and rare drop table (mobs and Grace of the Elves) - Kill your max amount of Borks every day and you'll never have to worry about summoning charms. - When training in the wilderness, try to move as far north as you can. Even 1 moving tile north can give a boost to your XP. - Without the bonus from the well, you burn through many more resources. So when the Well of Goodwill bonus isn't active, either help fill it or use that time to gather brawlers or resources and try to prioritize training gathering skills. 2 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winter Revel Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Fantastic guide. I'd add anachronia agility course to agility portion. Extremely high exp with or without brawlers. (I still think its more exp than wilderness 300% bonus) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought that Anachronia XP depended on Surge + Bladed Dive usage, but according to wiki it's sliiiightly better by default. Thanks for pointing this out.
