Your First Week as a RuneScape3 Member: A Money-Making Plan
So you’ve just unlocked membership — congrats, adventurer! 🎉 The world of Gielinor just expanded tenfold, and with it, your opportunities to make GP skyrocket. But with so many options, it can feel overwhelming. Don’t worry, here’s a day-by-day style plan for your first week as a member to get you rolling in both experience and cash.
🌱 Day 1: Unlock the Basics
Rune Mysteries: If you haven’t already, complete this to access pure essence mining.
Start Farming: Plant low-level herbs (guam, marrentill) just to get the habit going.
Daily Vis Wax: Unlock the Rune Goldberg Machine in the Runecrafting Guild. Even as a new member, Vis Wax is pure profit — often 500k+ a day.
💰 Profit: 500k–1M from Vis Wax alone.
🪓 Day 2: Skilling for Steady Income
Woodcutting: Chop willows or yews (or try elder trees if one’s up). Logs sell fast.
Fishing: Head to Catherby or the Fishing Guild (if you meet requirements) and start fishing lobsters, swordfish, or sharks depending on your level.
💰 Profit: 200k–400k while gaining steady XP.
⛏️ Day 3: Mining & Smithing
Start mining coal and mithril, smelt them into mithril or steel bars for decent profit.
If you can, move into adamant or rune ores as your Mining level grows.
💰 Profit: 300k–600k depending on your efficiency.
🧟 Day 4: First Slayer Tasks
Talk to Turael (Burthorpe) or Mazchna (Canifis) to get your first Slayer assignments.
Collect drops like herbs, runes, and bones — don’t ignore the little stuff, it adds up.
💰 Profit: 200k–500k plus solid combat XP.
🌿 Day 5: Herb Runs & Farming Training
Plant profitable herbs like ranarr, avantoe, or kwuarm if you’ve trained Farming a bit.
Do tree runs if you can afford saplings — great XP and some profit on the side.
💰 Profit: 300k–800k per run depending on herbs.
🏹 Day 6: Mid-Level Combat & PvM
Try fighting monsters like Moss Giants, Blue Dragons, or lesser demons.
Collect dragon bones, hides, and rune items for quick GE cash.
💰 Profit: 400k–1M depending on RNG and drops.
🐉 Day 7: D&Ds and Bossing Intro
Try a Shooting Star or Evil Tree distraction & diversion for easy XP and GP.
If you’re ready, dip your toes into bossing with King Black Dragon or Barrows.
Keep doing your daily Vis Wax — it stacks up fast.
💰 Profit: 1M+ if you get a good drop.
✨ Final Tips
Always check the Grand Exchange to see what’s in demand.
Do your daily challenges — they often give easy GP and XP.
Mix money-making with training skills, so you’re not just grinding gold.
By the end of your first week as a member, you could have a few million GP in the bank, better skills, and a solid foundation to keep climbing.
Happy scaping, and welcome to the world of membership riches! 🪙
