Is there a reason that plank make still costs me coins to cast in addition to runes? I'm aware that the sawmill in the fort is free but if I wanted magic xp instead of construction I'd like to not waste money casting the spell

The reason is obvious. We are given more and more choices for a specific in game progression. Obviously all choices can't be the best and absolutely equal to the others. There must be a trade-off to make them better in certain situation, and not so feasible in the others.

You actually sort of answered your own question already, when you told us the difference between magic and construction xp.

^that's not why....they both cost money just the runes saved you running to sawmill, so given current update to fort, the spell should also be free, just cost runes, should also grant con xp as well.

Jagex forgot about that lunar spell :P

It was simply forgotten by jagex. They added free plank make at the sawmill but forgot to change plank make spell to be free. Either make plank make spell free or make the fort's sawmill cost gp to use. maybe its a convenience fee since u can bank stand and make planks rather than them just forgetting the spell exists

You already pay for it with the runes you use, just as you do with any other magic spell. It is not free.

I think Jagex has actually gone too far the other way already: NO method of making planks should come without a GP cost!

Construction was originally envisaged as a GP sink, and the game needs that right now more than ever.
