Tormented demons guide
Could someone consider a guide for tormented demons please? Their dragon limbs are worth more than any pair of glacor boots, and are about as common I believe. Logialian (talk) 06:48, August 28, 2013 (UTC)
 * That's definitely one that I'm considering...it's just a question of what the rarity of the limbs are. Is it 1/300? 1/1000? It makes a huge difference, if tormented demons are 60 kills per hour then it's the difference between 4m an hour and a little over 1m an hour. 07:03, August 28, 2013 (UTC)

GWD
What about Solo Guides to God Wars Dungeons Bosses?
 * Those should be coming soon. 03:05, September 2, 2013 (UTC)


 * Is there an ETA on this? Would really love to see them :D 95.94.80.218 17:38, October 20, 2013 (UTC)

Automaton Tracers and Generators
Shouldn't the guide Killing Automaton Guardians be written for all types of automaton? (BTW, the gloves the Guardians drop are currently worth the least.) Logialian (talk) 08:35, September 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * No. Kill rates are fastest with Guardians. We are thinking about making guides for the others, but maybe not. 18:24, September 10, 2013 (UTC)

Hey guys! The new moneymaking guide is spectacular! It's really amazing. However, I strongly suggest we keep the skill-specific moneymaking guides. I find them to be really useful when I want to train a skill but prioritize making money over the experience, so I use them all the time. I hope you guys keep them!

Drinking Wine:

 * A jug of Wine cost 60 at GE


 * A Jug cost 243

So drinking the wine gives you a profit of 183.

You can drink about 1 wine/sec, you also have to go to the bank every 28th second, if you use 3 secounds in the bank you can drink 3251 wines pr hour, which gives you a profit of 595'116/hour:

winesPrHour(wineTime, bankTime) = 60^2 / (wineTime + bankTime/28)

winesPrHour(1,3) = 60^2 / (1 + 3/28) = 3251.6

Jugs of wine are relatively easy to get your hands on. Jugs usually does not sell immediately, however, people often buy large quantites of them at a time.

Exiled Kalphites
With 99 smithing, damaged chitin gives you 9k worth of chitin straps. Since you can kill a fair amount of exiled kalphites per hour, I think this method warrants looking into. I don't often kill exiled kalphites, so I'm not sure how many kills you can get per hour, but using a yack can make each trip worth at least 500k. Tomdiepstrap (talk) 23:33, September 29, 2013 (UTC)


 * So I've been looking into this method a bit more, and using a royal crossbow with royal bolts, extremes, and a yack WITHOUT winter storage scrolls, I can easily do 4 trips within an hour killing marauders and guardians. Assuming 58 chitin per trip (More like 50, but 8 spots get taken up by things like runes, which tend to outvalue chitin over the course of a trip), that's 232 chitin per hour. Also, at the Varrock West Bank anvil, a full inventory of chitin can be processed in 45 seconds.


 * Doing some quick calculations, and considering loss of time in processing chitin, you could easily make 2m an hour with this method. Tomdiepstrap (talk) 23:56, September 29, 2013 (UTC)

Smoke Runes?
Got to browsing around for rune prices lately, noticed that the prices on hybrid elemental runes are still high, especially Smoke. Looked at the ingredient prices, looked at the locations. I'm pretty sure it's an excellent money-making method, and they sold pretty well when I tried it. Let's look at the math.

Per run: That's a setup cost per run of about 1,570 gold. As for output, 26 smoke runes at ~550 each (market price at time of writing) comes out to about 14,300 gold, minus the 1,570 setup, which leaves a profit of 12,730 per run. The Runecrafting page says the Fire Altar is about a minute per run, so 12,730 * 60 is 763,800 profit per hour. My numbers might be off by a gold piece or three here and there, but the math stands.
 * 1x Air Talisman (160ish gold at time of writing)
 * 26x Air Rune (450ish gold at time of writing)
 * 1 charge of a Binding Necklace (50ish gold per charge at time of writing)
 * 26x Pure Essence (910ish gold at time of writing)

I'd call three quarters of a million per hour at 19 Runecrafting a pretty good money-making method, and it's not like the ingredients are all that hard to get on the Grand Exchange. It's even decent experience -- I'm still getting a few levels doing runs of it in the mid-30s.

Thoughts?

Mining Mithril and Coal
I see there are guides for mining iron, adamantite, and runite ores, but not for mithril ore or coal, both of which could be easily profitable. It'd be great if somebody added these; I can't because I don't actually know the best methods! 129.161.218.194 11:19, October 2, 2013 (UTC)

If you buy kebabs from Karim in Al Kharid and sell on the GE, you make a considerable amount

Can someone add a page for Exiled Kalphites? The chitins break into 5k-10k worth coins. You can get about 140 chitins per hour which averages at 1m just on the chitinsDuskFalls (talk) 12:09, October 20, 2013 (UTC)

Inconsistency in gp/hr profit
There are inconsistencies between the profit per hour in the table on this article and the profit per hour listed on the individal method's page. There should be some sort of standardization in formalae to keep them the same. Voyaging (talk) 04:06, October 22, 2013 (UTC)

I too have noticed this. I think correcting this should be of relatively high priority. I would ask that anybody with the "know-how" to take a try at solving this issue. Just for a quick example (and this may have been fixed after the time of writing this) but if you look at the Cleaning Grimy Ranarr it is suggested that you can make over 600k per hour then on the actual page suggests about 300k. 71.230.252.103 01:51, October 23, 2013 (UTC)

Vials of Water
As trivial as this may seem, I think something could be said about buying empty vials and filling them with water before reselling. Although the price of Vial of Water has fluctuated lately due to shop updates and changes but who's to say that they won't rise again in the future. Thoughts? Would anyone be interested in adding this in? 71.230.252.103 23:40, October 22, 2013 (UTC)

Cannonballs

 * I have decided to create a page for smithing cannonballs on the mainspace. Feel free to correct the writing style, information. The page is http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Money_making_guide/Smithing_cannonballs (Shoyrukon (talk) 04:34, November 11, 2013 (UTC))

swamp lizard
i was looking at the swamp lizard guide, but there is no estimation for how much you make with war tortoise. i will be doing a bit of research and will be adding the profit on the page as soon as i can. --72.192.68.93 12:56, November 1, 2013 (UTC)

Bobs shouldn't increase the the profit by too much. You are only reducing the number of bank trips  by increasing your overall inventory space. --(Shoyrukon (talk) 22:08, November 3, 2013 (UTC))

Categorizing the Guides
Previously, the old MMG was seperated into individual skills, combat, and merchanting. I think we should make the split the guides up into different sections based on whether it's primarly combat, skilling, collection or other (merchanting) if possible? The guide right now is not very easy to navigate for lower to mid level players as the top hourly profits are primarly high level combat methods. If we split the guides up into their respective, primary skills requirement, subsections, this would help players navigate and find select methods to train or make money.

Killing guards for grapes
Guards commonly drop 3 grapes, grapes are worth around 1.5k you can easly get around 150 grapes / hour, that's arounds 220k/h

Since are guards are quite easy to kill this would be a great method for free/new players to make money.

Kill guards north gate of falador south of lode, bank close(south).

No Fight kiln for onyx' method?DuskFalls (talk) 22:29, December 12, 2013 (UTC)

Elder/Magic logs
What about woodcutting elder logs and magic logs? Are these still good money making methods?

Golduin (talk) 07:17, December 15, 2013 (UTC)
 * Magic logs were pretty bad (about 200,000 an hour) when I last tested. I haven't tried elder logs. 22:14, December 15, 2013 (UTC)
