Withdraw flax, cast Spin Flax until the inventory is bow strings, bank, repeat. Two nature runes per cast is the main cost; bow string demand from fletchers keeps the price steady.

Requirements

  • Skills: 76 Magic, 10 Crafting
  • Quests: Lunar Diplomacy
  • Note: Lunar spellbook. Spins 5 flax per cast; ~6 casts per inventory.
