Runecrafting lvling?

hi, can someone give some tips to lvl rc to 44 so i can start grinding nats? should i stick with airs till 44 or switch it up to fires?

Fire runes would be a faster method to 44 but much less profit especially with air rune prices. If you do use fire runes you’d also need to craft/buy Rings of Dueling for the fastest method. I’d personally stick with airs for a majority of it

Whats the method for fires? Duel ring run to altar then what?

My guess be duel ring then run to duel ring bank rinse and repeat

Feel like that’s kinda a long run to a bank, but might be the way and I’m a bad judge of tile distance. I guess fire runes are like double the XP/ess so even if the run is a bit longer fires might still be faster.

Airs are more runes per ess and less runes per cast to actually use though so can’t see ever doing fires as an IM.

I would suggest airs as well. Fires is faster but requires money to do in rings. At this point its just the fastest methods we have. I mean you can do minds or earth but not as efficient. And water just takes to long overall. I mean if you use minds your still better off buying them in most cases over making them and just making the air runes. Imho

I did airs first, then minds from edge bank from 28-44, primarily because of rune prices at the time

Best to stick with airs but if you have money you could

Duel ring → Fire altar - > Glory - > repeat

for fastest XP.

Kinda figured the ol glory to edge was pivotal to the method. Castle wars is sorely missed just for its bank and tele.

I bought like 35 dueling rings and mined around 8k essence. I went from Duel Arena Tele → Fire Altar → Duel Arena Bank → Repeat. It took around 12-14 hours to get 14->44, but I wasn’t the most efficient. Just gotta sacrifice a day or 2. Glad it’s done.

if you have access to a lot of glories you could halve the dueling ring cost and alch your dueling ring (1)'s to reduce the cost further.
Teleporting to edge bank is the fastest and cheapest if you can afford a lot of glories, running all the way to duel arena bank sounds awful to me.

If you’re a 1 def 10 hp character too you could probably incorporate suicide tactics to replenish your run energy - a good place for this may be glorying to al kharid palace with a glory charge and agroing multiple guards to hit you - but that kind of thing might be reserved for the most sweaty players, but being able to run always is pretty relevant
wearing something like flowers to reduce the chance you hit and protect from item to make sure you keep a 4th low value item could also be helpful in a strat like that.

I get that not everyone has access to many glories, but if you earn enough cash it’d really speed you up having 28-29 and just charge em all at once and repeat.
Ask your friends / clan to lend you some glories during their down time, give them some collateral if they have an issue trusting you.

duel rings and fally tele go a long way, i think solo i was hitting 9k+ an hour, and with one buddy its only a few hours to 44

I did combo of air runes and fires, had a few duel rings so tele to altar and walked to bank fairly AFK didn’t seem to take too long really
