When you’re playing the free online role playing game Runescape, you do many things.

Sometimes you gear up and fight monsters. Sometimes you dress lightly and mine ores or chop wood or fish. Sometimes you remove your best equipment and put on your second-best set, bring a bunch of lobbies or swordies, and head out into the Wilderness to explore in the dangerous territory of Player Killer land.

But, those are all things where you’re doing things mainly for yourself. I’d like to introduce a one of the main ways you can do something for yourself, while also providing a very worthwhile service to another player, and making money while doing so. One of the many Runescape tips that I use personally!

Money in Running

“Running” on Runescape and likely other online role playing games means this: As simple as possible… one player is at a specific spot on the game, doing a specific task (say, crafting fire runes), and other players (usually more than one) are running back and forth between that player and the bank.

The “runner” players are providing the stationery player with raw materials (rune essence) to do what they’re doing there, and at the same time are receiving a share of the product (runes) being created.

So, in the end, for your running back and forth, you’ll get a bit of free money in Runescape in the form of runes, and if you’re lucky, you won’t even have to “spend” any rune essence. Some traders will ask you to bring 27 rune essence to them, and in return they’ll give you 27 noted rune essence and 27 runes of the type they’re crafting! Then, you head back to the bank, deposit it all and withdraw the 27 essence to start the process all over!

What a great deal!

So… are you a rune CRAFTER or a rune RUNNER? Please post a comment here with your player name on the game if you’re interested in getting pm’s from other players about this topic. It would be great to have a few Crafters listed here as well as a few Runners.

    Hello. I was checking out ur site just now. Looks pretty good. Not quite as good as Runehq, but hey everyone starts somewhere right :-)
    Well for starters, my RS name is Infinitedead, so feel free to pm me if u would like a Rune crafter. I have 60 R\C and I pay in RUNES ONLY. The reasone for this being is that I am unfortunately a pretty poor member :-( So before u pm me just remember that I ONLY PAY IN RUNES. I can make all runes except for death runes.

  55. Anonymous on January 12, 2007 2:53 am

    people, people there’s no point to find a bunch of runners and crafters here. You can all easily go to world 16 (f2p world) with 26 or 27 rune ess (i forget which) and trade a guy saying open. Mostly you will get payed in cash (1.5-2k amounts) and your ess back. As a member do same with world 66 law run (members only) and get like 15 laws, but for law run make sure with pure ess

  56. Anonymous on February 9, 2007 7:31 pm

    A very quick way for non members is to rune-run.
    For air runes:
    1.World 16.
    Go to air altar,look for people saying:”open 2k ess”
    meaning you will get 2kgp and 27 ess back.Once i was getting 3k ess AND 200 airs each trip.
    For members.
    1.World66
    Law Runs.
    bring 27 pure ess to entrana.there usually is a long trail of people near port sarim,just follow them.
    bring nothing except ess.
    Now look for someone saying “open”
    you should get 27 LAWS and 27 noted ess back
    I did that for maybe 30min and got500laws.
    Not bad eh?
