TL;DR — Pick money by
effort level: chill AFK gp while you watch a show, active skilling for steady bank, or PvM/flipping for big gp/hr. Rates below are ballpark and
move with the market — always confirm live numbers on our
Flip Finder,
Boss Profit and
Calculators.
💤 Low-effort / AFK
Great while multitasking. Low intensity, lower gp/hr, but it adds up.
| Method | Rough gp/hr | Needs |
|---|
| Cannonballs (Blast Furnace / superheat) | 100–250K | Smithing 35+, AFK |
| Amethyst mining | 150–300K | Mining 92+, very AFK |
| Fishing (sharks / anglerfish) | 150–350K | Fishing 76–82+ |
| Battlestaves / dart tips crafting | 300–700K | Crafting/Smithing, semi-AFK |
| Herb / tree / birdhouse runs (per lap) | "free" passive | Farming/Hunter, minutes a day |
Use our
Flip Finder → Recipes tab to see the
live profit of battlestaves, darts, potions and more — it does the tax + prices for you.
⚒️ Active skilling
| Method | Rough gp/hr | Needs |
|---|
| Herblore (make prayer pots / brews / restores) | 0.8–2M | Herblore + capital to flip through |
| Runecrafting (blood/soul/nature) | 1–2M+ | 77–90+ RC |
| Fletching (string bows, dragon darts) | 0.5–1.2M | Fletching + capital |
| Cooking (karambwans, sharks) | 0.3–0.8M | Cooking 30–90 |
Skilling for money doubles as XP — use the
Skill Calculator to see gp/hr
and the XP-vs-GP tradeoff so you pick the method that fits your goal.
⚔️ PvM (best gp/hr)
| Boss | Rough gp/hr | Guide |
|---|
| Phantom Muspah (beginner) | 1.5–3M | Guide |
| The Hueycoatl (group) | ~2.1M solo | Guide |
| Zulrah | 2–4M | Guide |
| Vorkath | 3–5M | Guide |
| Raids (ToB/CoX/ToA) | 4–10M+ | Team content — ask in Discord! |

💰 Merching & flipping (no combat needed)
Buy low, sell high on the Grand Exchange. It's the great equalizer — a level-3 can out-earn a maxed main with good flips. Watch margins and volume, keep the 2% sell tax in mind, and don't dump your whole bank into one item.
- High-volume flips for steady, safe gp; high-margin items for bigger swings.
- Our Flip Finder ranks live GE flips by ROI and profit/limit with tax baked in.
- Use the GE Tax calculator before selling big-ticket items so there are no surprises.
🐔 CluckSquad tips
- Do your daily/weekly passive runs (herb, birdhouses, GotR, contracts) — they're basically free gp for minutes of effort.
- Group content pays more and is more fun — jump in our Discord and find a team.
- Always sanity-check a method's live profit with our tools before committing hours to it — prices shift weekly.
