⛏️ Mining & Smithing ▶

Levels 1–15: Mine copper & tin around Lumbridge Swamp or South-east Varrock. Smelt into bronze bars at the furnace near Lumbridge for Smithing XP.
15–30: Move to iron ore mining spots like Al Kharid mine. Power-mine iron for faster XP but no profit.
30–50: Mine iron ore at Varrock West or Al Kharid, then smelt steel bars using coal from Dwarven Mine or south Varrock.
Smithing Boost: Complete The Knight’s Sword quest for a big Smithing XP reward and access to iron anvil near Varrock.
Pro Tip: Use furnace near Al Kharid for less crowded smelting; keep inventory free for ores.

🎣 Fishing & Cooking ▶

1–20: Use a small net to catch shrimp and anchovies at Lumbridge or Draynor Village. Easy to cook and sell.
20–40: Fly fish trout and salmon at Barbarian Village river (bring feathers for bait). Use fly fishing rod for best results.
40–50: Continue fly fishing salmon and trout, cook fish on fire or range for Cooking XP and food supply.
Cooking Tips: Use range fires for less chance to burn food. Burnt fish give no XP and waste resources.
Money Tip: Sell cooked trout and salmon to players or Grand Exchange if members.

🪓 Woodcutting & Firemaking ▶

1–15: Chop normal trees near Lumbridge or Varrock.
15–30: Oak trees near Draynor or west Lumbridge give faster XP and decent logs.
30–50: Chop willow trees at Draynor Village or south Rimmington for fast Woodcutting XP.
Firemaking: Burn logs as you collect them for fast Firemaking XP and free inventory space.
Pro Tip: Use tinderbox and light logs immediately to speed Firemaking and gain extra XP while Woodcutting.

🧙 Magic ▶

1–13: Cast Wind Strike on chickens or cows near Lumbridge.
13–25: Use Fire Strike on goblins or wizards in Lumbridge Swamp or castle area.
25+: Teleport to Varrock or other towns for faster training, or train combat spells like Curse when unlocked.
Tip: Equip elemental staves (Staff of Air, Fire, etc.) to save runes while training.
Money Tip: Use magic teleports to save travel time when training other skills.

⚔️ Combat ▶

1–20: Train on chickens, cows, or goblins near Lumbridge. Bury bones to gain Prayer XP.
20–40: Fight Al Kharid warriors; bring food like trout or salmon to heal.
40+: Hunt Hill Giants in Edgeville Dungeon (need brass key). They drop big bones good for Prayer training.
Gear Tip: Upgrade weapons/armor from iron → steel → mithril → adamant for better combat efficiency.
Combat XP: Use controlled style to train Attack, Strength, Defence evenly or aggressive for faster Attack XP.
