As far as woodcut and fishing – I don’t cut the highest tree I can because it’s not as fast. I do yews most of the time because of the extra benefits – more gp or xp depending on what I want to do with them. Maples are fast and great for burning – Northwest of Seers by the tracks…. take a knife with a tinder and fletch here and there, then drop, for added xp to another skill. (I burned because I had to use the click to drop each anyway – might as well get xp for it!)

Timewise – I don’t know………. depending on what you want to work on – because each skill has different speeds of xp per hour no matter what you work with to get the xp. Prayer takes a lot longer than other things unless you buy the bones – which I don’t. Runecrafting takes forever. Gathering and spinning flax is fast relatively. I never concentrated on getting one skill at a time – the more xp I get with every action the better! I loved cutting, picking flax, spinning, fletching, making bows, then high alking them for hours on end in Gnome stronghold near the south entrance gate – never had to bank – but you can see I got lots of xp in many skills fluidly and without having to run for anything extra.
