I see a lot of people asking questions about gold farming so I decided to make a simple guide explaining it. These are just the basics that you should know before starting a gold farm.
Example of an easy gold farm method 200-400k/hour depending on how many people are doing it. Requirements take less than a day splashing. I used to run 4-5 bots on this before I released it publicly. Here is the thread link:http://osbot.org/forum/topic/102964-magic-guild-buyer/
There are many other methods out there that are simple like this.
Tips
You will eventually be banned by gold farming. There is no way around it. The key is to profit as much as you can before getting banned. Don't complain when you get banned.
Mule the gold every few hours so you do not risk losing out on profits
Find a good private script
Buy a VPS to increase the size of your farm
Do not bot stupid stuff like Blast Furnace or woodcutting and expect to not be banned.
No one is going to tell you their gold farm method so do not ask
Test things out to see what is profitable.
Buy VIP to expand your gold farm(if you plan to run more than 2)
If you do not want to pay for a private script, then learn to code yourself. You can be writing your own simple scripts in a few weeks of practicing it. Here is my progression scripting thread http://osbot.org/forum/topic/95239-becoming-a-script-writer/page-1
P2p>F2p. Bond costs should only take a day or less to recover
It costs money to make money.
Basic FAQ 1) Is OSRS profitable? Yes there is a lot of money to be made in gold farming Runescape. I just read the other day that someone gold farmed enough to get lazer eye surgery to improve their eye sight. Other people have made thousands of dollars from it so it is possible. This does not mean that it is easy though.2) How do I know what is profitable?My suggestion from personal experience is go to around Runescape and find random things that are profitable. There are a lot of things that are not common and make anywhere from 200-500k/hour. I've found many methods that make good money just from exploring osrs.3) What is a private script?It is a script bought by only you4) Should I use a private script or a public script?Private scripts are better because they are unique to only you. If you are wanting to start a gold farm, I strongly suggest buying a private script.5) Where do I buy a private script?Many scripters sell private scripts. Go to the private script section to search for some.6) How do I get the private script to show up?Place it in your Users/Osbot/Scripts folder. Refresh your client and it will appear7) What is a VPS?Basically its something that lets you run more bots. If you have a shitty computer, then get a VPS to run more bots.7) What is a proxy?A proxy is used to change your ip on the client. It does not lower ban rates but it prevents chain bans. This means that all your accounts are not linked on the same IP.9) What is a mule?An account that holds your gold and is not botted10) Will my mule get banned?It is very hard for a mule to get banned( very low chance but still possible)11) What is automated muling?Some people have it coded into their scripts to automatically transfer gold. This is the ultimate gold farming strategy because it lowers the risk of profit loss and allows the user to have less input12) Should I bot f2p or p2p? p2p is the way to go. For some reason p2p bots have a lower ban rate and there are a lot better methods.13) Why should I invest money if I am just going to be banned?If you find a good method and bot smart, you will make profit.14) How many hours a day should I bot?No one knows the answer to this. There's always a risk in botting.15) Does the weekend really have a lower ban rate?From what I have seen, yes it does. Jagex is out of the office during these days. This does not mean you cannot be banned, but I know a lot of people who run huge gold farms starting Friday-Monday morning.16) What are breaks?Breaks are a user selected option that allows you to control how long to bot for and when to not bot. Many people believe that having breaks can reduce the ban rate.17) What is Mirror Mode?It is a VIP only feature that masks the official runescape client so that Jagex cannot detect that you are using a third party app. -- I have no opinion on this--18) What is CLI mode?It is an easier way to gold farm if you are running a lot of bots. I highly suggest using it. Here are the two links to the official release of them and how to use them. http://osbot.org/forum/topic/100378-osbot-24678-bot-farming-made-easy-cli-finished/page-1
http://osbot.org/forum/topic/101897-osbot-2471-low-resource-mode-web-walking-fixes/page-1
19) How is CLI mode useful?It allows you to set up your bots a lot quicker. With one click, you could open up 10 different clients all on different proxies, world selected, and script selected.20) How do I use CLI?Copy and paste this into notepad (fill in the username,password, and pin as they apply).
Save the file as a .bat
You can add or remove these as you like.
If you have any more questions I suggest trying the chatbox
java -jar "%recent%" -allow lowresource,lowcpu -login Useraname:Password -bot username:password:pin -script scriptname:para21) Is gold farming really easy?At first no. It takes time to find a good method and to set everything up. It is a lot of checking on your bots and making sure they're running smoothly. The goal in the end is to be able to only spend a few minutes each day and to make a lot of money.22) How much antiban should I have in my script?Little to none. Antiban is fake to draw in users. The best way to reduce your ban rate is to have a flawless script that does not get stuck or repeat actions. Read #4 here in this thread made by @@Alek:
http://osbot.org/forum/topic/45618-preventing-rs-botting-bans/page-1
23) OMG I got banned, Jagex is too pro what do I do?You are botting, so expect to be banned. Make new accounts and move on.24) Can an account survive for more than a few days? Yes I've had accounts last 40-50 day without getting banned. It's all about botting smart. Here is a picture of an account I botted while making my AIO fighter:
25) Should I check woodcut xp?
Always 26) Is Gold Farming stressful?I've actually seen a lot of people ask this question. My answer is it can be if done the wrong way. The point of gold farming is to check your bots every few hours not constantly monitor them and have to worry about 10 accounts.27) What benefits does VIP offer? What is the difference between sponsor and VIP?That is all explained here along with other ranks:http://osbot.org/forum/topic/50019-understanding-the-forum-ranks/
28) Who should I sell my gold to?I only sell my gold to the big companies like Bogla, Arcus, Kaii, etc. You can also sell to trusted people on here. I would not recommend using PayPal to people who are not trusted.29) How often should I mule the gold over?Safe way is to do it every few hours. If you can get automated muling in your script, then thats even better.30) What should I do while I am running my bots?Go in chatbox and talk More to come in the future. If you see anything missing or have any suggestions, please let me know.
