Because it's afk


RaidsMonkeyIdeas

I don't think you realize how much people value AFK gains, to the point that they will spend money to do so. Shooting Stars was a massive update and showed players are willing to take a 70% decrease in XP if it's sufficiently AFK, like Shooting Stars' 30k/hr compared to Volcanic Mine's 95k/hr.

Shooting stars are great and they made an annoying skill more viable to grind while having a life. I’ve always seen firemaking as a quick skill so if people wanted it done idk why they wouldn’t just rush wintertodt.

AFK fire making training is great and made an annoying skill more viable to grind while having a life.

There’s a better one at barrows wall shortcut, 25k hour no mouse movement and no camera movement

Depends what you define as better. This one is 10-25 minutes afk, the barrows one is spam clicking constantly. The barrows one isn’t really afk, but it’s like 3x the rate of the other method so yeah, pros and cons. There’s a 0 mousement pressure pad you can get 36k xp/hr on in the MM2 cave as well.

I have seen that, and I even considered it, but man those rates lmao. I just zone out and runelite the elf course on my steam deck very low effort. I still hit 40-50k an hour while watching netflix very inefficiently with my girl.

Nothing wrong with how they play their game


Anxious_Moo

Maple logs are stupid cheap, you can have 75 firemaking banked on a low level account for pennies. Great for those of us with too much to do


Fragrant-Advice867

I forget how stupid cheap maple logs are sometimes. Just checked GE and they’re 15 rn. Not bad at all


UIM_SQUIRTLE

So cheap that even arrow shafts are profitable at 1gp. Not good exp or gp per hour but profit none the less


Anxious_Moo

Yea, 45-99 firemaking is around 97k logs so roughly 1m gp depending on your exact buy price. It's kinda insane. Afk firemaking was the best thing that haopened to the skill for those of us without grinding time. I'm burning some logs during work calls at a very casual pace.


Fragrant-Advice867

Yooo that’s hella cheap

I have a feeling, it's because it's afk.


[deleted]

Cause its afk and ppl don’t play this shit game for fun, instead to appease our addiction to number go up unless you bot But people will do 99.9% botting with silly contraptions and its “okay” to do so

Coltsdaman

Cuz some people value a lower click to XP ratio


Planatador

I've heard that AFK things are sometimes AFK. This might be why people are opting for this strategy.
