NoahTheWeebWolf Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I just began botting blast furnace for the first time ever.I am confused with a few things.For one, I have only been botting an hour yet I only made roughly 90k profit.I am making steel bars, and I don't have a coal bag. I thought steel bars was 300k an hour but is that with or without a coal bag.I am also level 30 smithing.I don't know what I am doing wrong.Also is coal bag worth getting?

Kico Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 The Paint might be wrong but it all depends on prices of coal, iron and steel bars and also the bars per hour. It has been going down since the vacation that weath took let everyone bot without being ban. so I wouldnt be surprised if it was 90k/hr but i dont do it anymore because of the low prices.

risky Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 ^ what he said, coal bag only increases profits noticeably when your making higher tier bars such as mith+ , coal prices up and steel bar prices down resulted in the profit going to hell.

August Alsina Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 The prices aren't what they once were, although you should be making more than 90k/hr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckochucko Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 I was going to make a thread like this as well, I was making ~250k/h with Adamantite Bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apaec Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 probably an issue with the paint profit counter, I heard someone said it was faulty on one of the bots. Use the pricechecker instead and calc profit by hand. It's hard for us scripters to get accurate realtime prices without a live GE API guess we gotta wait until osrs releases one apa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wealthy Posted July 17, 2015 Share Posted July 17, 2015 there's no problem with paint profit counter, ever since weath went on vacation people have been botting the shit out of blast furnace with no bans so steel bars dropped by 100gp. Hopefully it'll rebound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahTheWeebWolf Posted July 17, 2015 Author Share Posted July 17, 2015 Ugh... I don't like the blast furnace... There's too much setup and my computer is being too slow(probably because of the crap ton of people in that one space on world 358).This is why I always liked simple gold farming methods like wood cutting, fishing, mining, etc. It's so much easier to set up and easier to keep track of profits(just need to pay off the bond). Where as supply intensive gold farming methods there's so much crap, you have to pay off and not get banned before you do.Fug this... *locks topic and hugs yew tree*.
