Slayer and PVM don’t make hardly very much money even at high levels, if someone tells you otherwise they were lying. A single raid will get you multiple bonds. A few hours, days at most, and you can buy almost anything. That is why our economy is dying.

There are many good ways to make money by skilling or PVE. You may not get the same ROI as you do with PVP but it's still good money and without as much risk. I mostly use the GE to make money by selling items at a markup or by converting items such as potions/barrows/sets into more profitable forms of themselves. Once you get into it then it can be easy and enjoyable with minimal effort. But it can have a steep learning curve.

Nope. I have been playing osrs since the vote to put it in and I have never had the spare cash to buy things like that. Jagex does not see people that do not pvm or pk as worthy.

thats an issue with you

lots of other people are doing fine.

i started an ironman earlier this year and its bank value is over 100m. and its still a noob. ive done pretty much no pvm apart from a few barrows runs. remember this is on an ironman that i literally started few months ago.

Bank value does not have anything to do with being able to buy bonds and such. ANY account accrues a lot of junk that has little value but adds up to a lot of suppose bank value. Take buckets as an example. You can tons of them and they add up to a lot of "wealth", but they are totally useless. You can not alch them for gps or anything of value. You could easily have a million buckets and they would have a bank value of 1 million gps, but it is not going to get you any closer to a bond than having 1 bucket.

it 100% does., as it shows how much is made,

if this was a main account. id be able to sell anything thats in my bank creating the 100m bank value, and be able to buy bonds with that gp.

its 100% related to making money. how are you trying to twist, bank value isnt related to making money? how do you think bank value increases lmao

im not spending my time on my ironman getting buckets. accept the fact you are wrong. its easy to make money and enough for bonds, considering a huge portion of the playerbase do this for members.

it seems to be just you with the issue

Genuinely question here, just started playing again on a new account; got lucky and won a 4 ags giveaway bank up to like 55m ish, but i am still really confused as to how people make money if they don't pk or do dms or raid

A voidwaker is like 159m+ right now and almost all the BIS pk gear are 100m+ and upwards. How are you supposed to grind that out if you are a new player? I looked up a bunch of guides and everything just seems so slow like skilling gets you 700k to 1m + and maybe close to 2m an hour if you have maxed out the skill or someone told me to go kill vorkath but that's only like 2-3m gold an hour; all of these seem so slow in comparison to just pking and doing 1v1 dms

Is raiding just the way to go then if you are starting new and is that even doable on a zerker account or do i need like maxed out cb stats
I was wondering the same thing. I try to do quests to unlock moneymaking methods, the quest requires levels I don't have. I look at quests that give xp in those levels I don't have, they require other levels I don't have.

You can do majority of quests with only doing quests its only till you get to master quests do you need to train to do them for the stats requried.

I got to over 200 qp on my ironman with out training if there was training it was very little

A lot of scams are based on selling items off ge that will not sell in the ge or have a lot higher bank value than the ge value. For an example, there was an item I do not remember right off hand that was listed 3 months ago for about 5k per, but only had about 10 or so items selling per day. Scammers were using this item to show a bank of several million. IF you paid for 1000 of the items (like the scammers were trying to get you to do), you would lose about 4.8 million in actual value. There are a lot of items that do not sell though the ge that have almost no real relationship to their true value as a result. As an ironman you would not know the real value of these items.

It has 20 days and 1 hour of play time. YET in that time, I have done 99 out of 156 quest (181 qp), got 1343 total levels with 8.7 million exps. YET I can barely pay my bond every two weeks. My highest level is 79 cooking and it takes much of the time to make enough profit to pay 7.5 mil for a bond. The reason it is so expensive to buy a bond is that pvm, esp. raids, make so much money they can throw away money for nothing.

its easy to make money and enough for bonds, considering a huge portion of the playerbase do this for members.

it seems to be just you with the issue

i feel like there is a lot of confusion to my original question

there is a clear difference between making enough gold to afford bonds and making so much gold that you can afford a full torva set with voidwaker and then still have 1bil + gold left over

obviously it isn't hard to make enough just to grab a bond but i am curious as to how people can have a 2bil + bank without engaging in pk content or end game raids on a maxed out stat account

like if i am a returning player on a fresh account i made a week ago how do i go about making 2bil + in 30 days?
