@@offspringfan100 I did, man! I got quite lucky though and got it early on during downstairs motherlode. However, I didn't find out that you could change it colour until I hit 99 hahah

A quick tip for tick manipulation with herbs since I don't think it was said in the video: If you want to bring more herbs but don't have an herb bag, you can do that as long as they are not cleaned yet. The dialogue box for "how many tars to make" will not appear if you only have one clean herb, but several grimy herbs. Then, if you accidentally make a tar, you can just clean another one, but make sure you drop the other grimy herbs first, otherwise it will clean them all automatically.
Not sure how I didn't think of that! Keep in mind it's pretty tough to use up an herb at granite because you are moving around a lot, so maybe don't bring a ton of herbs, but great tip!
@@jacob6668get full dh or obsidian, get your hp to 1, full absorb, set your quick prayer to rapid heal. Double click every 50 seconds. Then you just need to check every so often on your absorb to make sure you don't die.
might want to add an addendum for shooting stars: it's efficient to get the celestial ring as it's only about 2 hours to get it and the +4 invisible boost helps even past 99
That 3t4g gameplay brought me back to the painful learning experience that you start out with there. As over time though, you start to actually get good at the method and you enjoy yourself so much more than before. One of the best training methods in the game. Just some tips though, you can make it easier for yourself to use a knife/log as a 3t action instead of the herb tar to reduce clicks between boulder 3 and 4, it might sound better to use stretched runelite but it is better on your wrists to use a minimised client as when you get better at clicking it is a much shorter distance to travel. I find humidify also helps keep you in cycle but is very optimal, and finally the placement of your camera will help you a lot in keeping the cycle but you will find your placement over time. Good shit Gnomonkey
Hey man don't knock blast mining lol its definitely worth discussing as it provides about 400k gp and 60k xp per hour after level 75. Dynamite is relatively cheap and you can get the hang of it and still watch UA-cam/movies while blasting
Weirdly, I don't mind Blast Mine; not AS intensive as tick manipulating, but forces me to focus enough that I get better xp than i would at Motherlode where i afk and kill my xp rates
A little disappointed you didn't really cover blast mining, its definitely worth discussion. Better money and xp than gem rocks, and you don't even need a pickaxe! Plus its fun to completely fill the sack and see that massive xp drop all at once.
Great guide! I would note to use a skills necklace to teleport to the Mine. I wouldn't recommend running to the mine via the staircase you showed. It' takes up less energy and it's very cheap for that single teleport and the necklace itself. A direct teleport to the mining guide, via the skills necklace, is your best bet for efficiency. There is 6 teleports per necklace.
IMO it's worth mining iron in the mining guild for the minerals. It takes about 25k ore for the expert mining gloves which are GREAT for runite ore later. EDIT: Also there is a bank/deposit box you can use to cut down on clicking so that there is no need for power mining and wasting ore if you are an ironman.
I don't think runite alone is worth mining, although if you plan on mining amethyst later the gloves from iron will save you a lot of time down the road!
once you get the falador diary done with the prospector jacket, and you acquire the elite varrock platebody you can then sell your prospector jacket back for gold nuggets as now your varrock body will act as your prospector jacket and the prospector jacket itself isn't required for clue steps as the varrock body counts as the full set
Additionally you can sail to Tempoross cove via the boat next to Al Kharid bank and run out north to get to granites. (Need 5gp for pass if elites aren't done)
I really hate doing MLM. People either don't know how the upper level works or totally ignore it and bitch at you if you try to tell them about it. IT's amazing the freedom people think they have to treat others like garbage.
I'm gonna assume I'd need high hitpoints if I want to do volcanic mine? I have done the steps required to get there, but I noticed you get damaged quite a bit.
Loved the video, but was wondering why steering away from blast mining. I am currently 31.5m mining xp and love blast mining. Since it is not that click intensive as granite tick manip, gives a good amount of xp and gp per hour. Currently with my method usually I have not seen anyone else doing it I am getting 72k xp per hour and 700k gp per hour which I put into construction also I high alch while I blast mine giving me magic xp and firemaking xp from blast mining.
I understand what you're saying, and obviously do what you will but: VM is 1/3+ better xp/h. Which values your time at ~2m/h. Gnomonkeys videos are, almost exclusively, targeted towards people looking for a means to an and (maxing mining, in this case) and will quite happily take this tradeoff. I know personally I'd much prefer to do 8h of vm & 2h of Cox then 10h of blast mine, even if they were the same gp (Cox will be higher)
I'm gonna ask and its blowing my mind that no one's asked or I've missed something but how do you remove or stop the 'make x' option? It completely stops the process for me unless you absolutely have to hold space bar?
Gem rocks are a little better than he said with tick manip, I've been getting 90-95k/hr, and with more practice should be able to bring it up to at least 110k. That also amounts to about 1m gp/hr.
I have recently made a ironman and went to mlm as soon as i could. I dont mind the slow exp as i can play main in stead. You tell to buy the bigger sack as last but i disagree. I bought it asap. It helps a lot with exp. Because i was at mlm because i could i will have another 100 nuggets to go to the upper level when i hit 72 mining. I would defo get the mining outfit last. The exp gain is so small i personally don't think it matters that much. The few hours you would've gained, are only a waste if you focus a 100% at mining all the time. But we all zone out once in a while etc.
POV: You already know about tick mining granite, you're just watching this hoping there's some sneaky hidden way you can avoid it... It is inevitable.

Why? is his path to 99 different and more effcient than the other endless guides?
I have 15M mining exp but your guides are so good so here I am watching this.
First time watching a video made by you, and my god, you have the perfect voice and cadence to do tutorial videos!

Would be a huge improvement if they balanced it against woodcutting, and allowed you to gain more ore per vein as you mine higher tiers of ore

boost over 99 only works in the mining guild. Invisible or not sadly.

I’m mining and banking ore as we speak

Excellent guide yet again. I actually don’t mind mining.
3:16 you say the Varrock Armour 4 gives double ore up to runite. It does also work for Amethyst, which is a higher tier ore than Runite.
Is that only in varrock?
@@stevendude565 nope, it works on stuff anywhere. What you're thinking about is it's chance to smith double ores at a certain furnace.

Nice guide, keep up the nice work!
finally a guide for NEW players that doesnt assume i have fucking 500 mil+ and 90+ stats laying around
Thanks for guide
Whats with the blast mine hate?
iron ore, and granite are both total nightmares. for someone lazy like i am, motherlode mine on the second floor is the way to go lol
What is the plugin for the ore timer?
At the mlm there is a hammer in the barrel close to the deposit sack! So you can free up that inventory for mining.
I might be wrong but if you can overload the sack with 4 trips of partial inventory instead of 3 trips of a full inventory.
Comment for the algorithm. You deserve it.
Pay-dirt!
I'm gonna assume I'd need high hitpoints if I want to do volcanic mine? I have done the steps required to get there, but I noticed you get damaged quite a bit.
What is the Runelite plug in to have the timer circle on the upper level of MLM show up?

idk why everyone hates mining lmfao i love it, i got over 21m xp on my iron man, 99 on my skiller, and now gona get 99 on rs3 lmfao
How do you get the yellow around the rocks - what runelite pugin is that?
I bring multiple of the same herb, but I only clean 1 at a time, that also works.
Gem rocks are a little better than he said with tick manip, I've been getting 90-95k/hr, and with more practice should be able to bring it up to at least 110k. That also amounts to about 1m gp/hr.
no zalcano?
thanks god done with 99 mining long time ago with a red golem following me =D
Is it even possible to get to 85 mining in F2P without considering sewercide?
how do u get ur mouse curser so tiny
Thank god for this I hate mining.
Unless I missed it, how long does this all take?
No exp rates?
3t4g is brutal. that shits harder than inferno to learn and do consistently without mistakes
I tried it last year for maybe 4 hrs... Couldn't get more than 45k/hr at which point I gave up

copper and tin ore at fally too!
Update to this great video. BIS afk mining - Stars post update.
volcanic mine is dead nobody ever plays it , why bother to even mention
Stars might make mining more fun as well :) they are coming soon ^_^
God i had an aneyrusm when u explained and showed 3 tick granite...
def hate mining and agility more than runecrafting. won't be mining for a long time :)
I fucking hate this skill but will give volcanic a try, it seems relatively UIM friendly?
Be very careful not to die there, definitely learn it on an account where you won't lose anything
BUEN VIDEO GRACIAS
I think you hate blast mine and trust me I do too but the xp there is very decent and the fact that you can get rune ore from level 75 is amazing
how you drop granite so fast? :D
It’s hard to teach to 85 mining :(
I was today years old when I found that there was a stretch plugin
I tried the granite with two of the same herb and gave up no wonder
@8:27 " when you shart"
Zalcona is also decent ores/bars for irons and required to get the crystal tool seed
i did motherlode mine from 30-99 (25m xp in mining) purely. I think I'll be the moron in any case
Great vid! Sadly tick manipulation gives me aids so I may go gem mines with with bag and a glory
Blast mines is like 700-800k gp/hr, but whatever.
me watching this entire video knowing damn well i'm never going for 99 mining
Ah so tick doesn't work all the time? And here I thought I was doing something wrong
Plot twist: ALL OSRS UA-camRS RECORD 2 MINUTES OF INTENSIVE GRINDING WHILE BOTTING FOR A TOTAL OF 68 YEARS
