| Method | Lvl | XP/hr | GP/XP | To goal | Hours |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Leather bodies Day-one starter with just a needle and thread; gloves and vambraces bridge levels 1-14 before bodies take over. ยท 25 xp/body | 14 | 35,000 | -7 | โ | โ |
| Cutting sapphires f2p Near-free chisel xp that works in F2P; slide up to emeralds at 27 and rubies at 34 as they unlock. ยท 50 xp/sapphire | 20 | 125,000 | -0.3 | โ | โ |
| Drift nets profit Weave 2 jute fibres per net at a loom; Fossil Island divers buy every net, so slow xp actually pays you. ยท 55 xp/net | 26 | 55,000 | +4 | โ | โ |
| Cutting diamonds Fast mid-game chisel work that also runs in F2P; you eat the gem margin as the price of speed. ยท 107.5 xp/diamond | 43 | 265,000 | -8.5 | โ | โ |
| Glassblowing (unpowered orbs) afk Make-all blows a whole inventory hands-free for ~50 seconds; light orbs at 87 bump each blow to 70 xp. ยท 52.5 xp/orb | 46 | 85,000 | -0.9 | โ | โ |
| Water battlestaves High-alch the finished staves and this lands near break-even; earth, fire and air versions follow at 58/62/66. ยท 100 xp/battlestaff | 54 | 220,000 | -4.7 | โ | โ |
| Green d'hide bodies Where serious body-sewing begins; step up to blue (71) and red (77) hides as your bankroll allows. ยท 186 xp/body | 63 | 290,000 | -8.6 | โ | โ |
| Black d'hide bodies fastest The 2026 meta: a costume needle from Death on the Isle needs no thread, fitting 9 bodies per bank trip. ยท 258 xp/body | 84 | 400,000 | -19 | โ | โ |
| Amethyst dart tips cheapest Chisel each amethyst into 8 tips for 60 xp; dart fletchers soak up the supply, keeping it nearly free. ยท 60 xp/amethyst | 89 | 150,000 | -0.2 | โ | โ |
Crafting is the textbook buyable skill: you pull materials from the bank, click them together, and convert gp straight into xp at whatever speed your budget allows. Cheap routes like gem cutting, glassblowing and amethyst tips cost almost nothing, while big spenders sew dragonhide bodies at 400k+ xp an hour. Since the costume needle arrived, high-level leatherwork no longer even needs thread, and Crafting remains one of the few 99s a free-to-play account can realistically finish.
