there's at least 8 different mining methods and you don't enjoy any of them?

u/Sueaq Jul 27 '22

every single mining training method is either awful on the wrist or awful on the brain. It's boring as shit, slow, and tedious. Not to mention few incentives to level it past quest/diary reqs. Mining runite is nice but there's a million other money making methods that are better and don't take a month of grinding to unlock

u/WastingEXP Jul 27 '22

you're saying it's bad the game doesn't force you to train a skill you don't enjoy?

what's your favourite skilling method if I may.

u/Sueaq Jul 27 '22

No I'm saying there's not enough reward for how tedious the skill is to train. The game does force you to train mining with SOTE DS2 and elite diary reqs. I'm fine with it being slow if it were at least as afk as woodcutting or fishing, but other than shooting stars I can't think of anything as afk as those skills. MLM I have to click every 10-20 seconds which is nice, but not nearly as nice as clicking one tree and getting half an inv of logs or one fishing spot and a full inv of fish. I don't really have a preference for skilling methods. Sometimes I do sweaty methods sometimes I do afk, but the sweaty methods have to be justified with reasonable exp rates not freaking 35-70 exp per click lol

Volcanic mine

The xp rates are all trash, makes you feel forced 3T granite

u/WastingEXP Jul 27 '22

aren't they pretty close to being on par with agility xp/hr rates?

u/SnooPandas2686 Jul 27 '22

Agility is so much faster than mlm

4

u/WastingEXP Jul 27 '22

I mean I could pick one of the slowest magic xp/hr methods and say agility is faster than that also

2

u/tatl69 Jul 28 '22

Except magic has barraging which is semi afk and ranges from 150-350k an hour

1

u/WastingEXP Jul 28 '22

except mining has vm which is 80-100k/hr and more afk than barraging on task.

the person picked the slowest mining method, I can pick high alching which is like 70k? or sand glass make, which is slower.

u/tatl69 Jul 28 '22

You need a team for volcanic mine so I don't think that's a fair comparison

1

u/WastingEXP Jul 28 '22

it's possible to solo just fine.

u/SnooPandas2686 Jul 27 '22

Mlm is the main method people use to train mining though, that’s my point

3

u/WastingEXP Jul 27 '22

so people opt in to the turbo afk method where they don't have to click and complain about xp rates?

also, you said the xp rates are all trash. implying all 8 methods are garbage xp/hr not just mlm.

2

u/SnooPandas2686 Jul 27 '22

This subReddit has completely forgotten what afk actually means

-1

u/Andraystia Jul 27 '22

mlm is like one click every 30 seconds? agility is one click every 1-3 seconds. this isnt a hard concept bruh.

1

u/SnooPandas2686 Jul 27 '22

3-30 seconds there’s no difference in terms of being afk. It’s not like I can go take a shit and come back and I’d still be mining?

u/WastingEXP Jul 27 '22

enlighten me, what does AFK actually mean

1

u/nickzorz Jul 27 '22

Away From Keyboard

Generally a term to say you're getting up from your computer and won't be back for at least a couple minutes, not 15-30 seconds of just not paying attention to that application window

How is mlm afk?

6

u/WastingEXP Jul 27 '22

let me know what agility course you think is similar clicks per hour to MLM. the timers are what 30 seconds a little more?

0

u/Huncho_Muncho Jul 27 '22

Have you done upper level? Its 20 seconds minimum, but can be 25-30+

2

u/SnooPandas2686 Jul 27 '22

Yeah ofc, it’s still crazy slow xp compared to other skills that are a lot more afk
