Summary

Gnomonkey shows a crafting training method that blows unpowered orbs from molten glass while running to the air obelisk in the Wilderness and charging them there. It relies on the RuneLite GPU plugin's extended click radius, and he calls it the most profitable way to train crafting at about 330,000 gp an hour.

Topics covered

Charge Air Orb

  • (0:32) The air orb crafting method requires 66 Magic and 46 Crafting.
  • (0:32) The method blows air orbs from molten glass while running to an elemental obelisk and then casts Charge Air Orb on the obelisk, which is the same as normal orb charging but with added Crafting.
  • (0:32) Supplies for the method are 78 cosmic runes, a glassblowing pipe and 26 molten glass.
  • (0:32) Gnomonkey equips a charged amulet of glory and the graceful outfit if the player has it.
  • (1:04) On arrival at the air obelisk the player should have about four pieces of glass left, so they finish blowing and then cast Charge Air Orb on the obelisk. When the inventory is done they teleport back to Edgeville and repeat.
  • (1:34) Doing air orbs this way gives up to 35,000 Crafting XP and 45,000 Magic XP per hour, and Gnomonkey thinks more efficient players could get higher.
  • (2:07) Gnomonkey finds the air orb method enjoyable because it has about a minute of relatively high click intensity followed by about two minutes of AFK orb charging.

Crafting

  • (0:00) Gnomonkey presents blowing and charging air orbs as the new most profitable way to train Crafting.
  • (1:34) Gnomonkey made roughly 550 air orbs an hour in the video; at 550 orbs an hour the method earns 330,000 gp an hour.
  • (1:34) As of 2018, Gnomonkey says the next best money-making Crafting method is gold bracelets at 130,000 gp an hour.
  • (2:07) Gnomonkey notes gold bracelets also give less Crafting XP than the air orb method, which additionally grants bonus Magic XP.

RuneLite

  • (0:00) Gnomonkey calls RuneLite's GPU plugin an absolute godsend even with its current bugs, because it lets graphics card power drive the game rather than just the processor.
  • (0:00) With the GPU plugin's extended click radius a player can click up to 45 tiles away, compared with about 20 in the standard client.
  • (1:04) With the old click distance only one or two orbs could be blown before running out of reach; with the increased click distance Gnomonkey blows up to six orbs without clicking again.
  • (2:07) Gnomonkey says players should abuse the extended click distance while they can because he expects Jagex to get RuneLite to remove it.

Air obelisk

  • (0:32) The route starts in Edgeville: the player enters Edgeville Dungeon by the trapdoor and continues north through the gate.
  • (0:32) Even if the player dies in graceful to player killers, they can run back and retrieve it because the air obelisk is in very low level Wilderness.
  • (1:04) The route passes the black demons and goes up a ladder to the air obelisk, blowing unpowered orbs whenever possible on the way.
  • (1:04) Monsters can interrupt glass blowing, so Gnomonkey recommends a world where the dungeon is populated with other people. A cannon at the black demons means a very good world.

Gnomonkey

  • (0:00) In November 2018 Gnomonkey says a ZMI method using the extended click radius might be his next video.
  • (2:07) In November 2018 Gnomonkey states he plans to make a new video every two days.
