P2P Firemaking Skill Guide - Fast 1-99 Skilling Guide

Overview

Firemaking is a very tedious skill but actually surprisingly quick to level. It can be a slightly expensive skill to reach a 99 in but if you have reached 99 woodcutting and burn all your logs from there, it can be a cost-free and simple process.

Fire-making is great because it can be done whilst you are waiting for something to sell or buy, waiting for a friend to finish his herb run for just 5 minutes. I know many people that have done merchanting whilst training firemaking.

What to do

First things first, you need to head over to the Grand Exchange. This is where you will be burning the majority of your logs as it has a close bank and a long enough area to burn all 28 of your logs in one go. Buy a tinderbox, then right click it and click "Add to tool-belt". Now you can burn an extra log per inventory, this will help more than you think.

Method

Levels 1-15

Start off by getting 61 normal logs and burning them. They are fairly cheap to buy on the G.E but can be chopped down quite easily to save you a bit of cash.

Levels 15-30

Simply gather 183 oak logs and burn them. Once again, they are cheap to buy on the G.E but it isn't hard to chop a few inventories of oak's down.

Levels 30-45

Burn willow logs. You will need exactly 535 willow logs to reach Level 45. Willows are really cheap and you can normally buy them for 10-13gp each. Otherwise, you can again do some woodcutting to do this. Some people actually train to 99 using willows since they are a cheaper alternative but it is much longer to do. If you went from 30-99, it would take about 145k willow logs.

Levels 45-60

This is where it gets a little more expensive. You will need 1,573 maple logs to reach level 60. Maple's are the best medium-cost and decent xp giving log to burn to 99. If you choose to go from 45-99, then it will take 96k logs to do.

Levels 60-99


This section is for a slightly rich player. It takes exactly 63,016 logs to reach 99 in this. Yew's are expensive logs to burn so unless you have some serious cash to spare, then I would recommend doing Willows or Maples to Level 99.

Alternative but more expensive route

Levels 60-75


If you want to reach level 75 as quick as possible, then buy 4,626 yew logs and get started. If you want a cheaper yet moderately fast way, then burn 6,939 maple logs.

Levels 75-99


Burning magic logs is incredibly expensive but much faster than any other log. It takes 38,921 magic logs to reach 99. You may want to think twice before following this route as there are cheaper ways to do it.

The Cape

After reaching 99 in Firemaking you can get a skillcape from Ignatius Vulcan for 99,000gp. He is located in the Seers Village. I personally think that the cape is the best looking in the game, especially if you have more than one 99. The trim just makes it look even better. (:
