Runescape Game Play

For wood cutting you chop trees, the end.

Ok its a bit more technical than that what and where to cut what to wear what to use etc.

Woodcutting is a primary skill and you can always make money doing primary skills, so if you play for money this is a good route to start.

First of all use the best axe you can use, if you can only just afford the next level axe and you would be skint buy it it will pay for itself very quickly.

First of all to get started cut normal trees and either fletch (members) or burn (members or NON members) a good place to cut these is by the hut entrance to Edgeville dungeon by the hill giants. to get there head west out of Varrock before you come to Barbarian Village head north and look for the hut, there are loads of dead trees there and they alway re spawn by the time you have finished the last.

Cut oaks when you can, these are convenient to a bank just outside the city walls by Varrock west bank, there are 3 there but the 2 near the path re spawn quick enough to keep you going, bank, burn or fletch depending on you mood.

When you are able to cut Willows go to Draynor Village, if you are woodcutting for xp this is where you will stay until 99 there are plenty trees and it is near a bank to empty your inventory quickly, if you want cash stay here until you can cut yews.

When you can cut yews and you want cash go to Catherby head west from the bank and there are a number of trees there (If non members there are yew trees just south of Edgeville bank), chop bank and repeat, it will be slow to start with xp will increase steadily, not as quick as willows but you will build a stock of yew logs that can be sold at Seers village, at current price these sell for 300gp each.

When you can cut Magic trees there are a few trees by the legends guild, if you can use the bank at Llyeta there are 3 trees there and you can bank nearby by using the tele crystals, magic tree logs are slow but can sell for 1k each at current prices.

If you are a member you will also get birds nests falling from the trees in these nest you can get tree seeds, these can sell from 500gp for oaks to 150k for magic tree seeds and not sure the price of spirit tree seeds, you also get rings from gold to ruby, these may have some use to you but I just drop them.

If you want to maximise XP you can do the temple trekking mini game and get full lumber, it took me 3 weeks constant playing to get the jacket, if I just wood cut instead of getting this I would be nearing 99 woodcutting by now, its not worth getting for the extra wc xp but there are other rewards when temple trekking.

Any serious woodcutter should get the dragon axe as soon as possible but at about 3m current price it is well out of the reach of most new players.
