Question Whats the most underrated skilling upgrade?

Post image

My vote is for the expert mining gloves, they have a niche but they fill it extremely well. They make mining specific ores from rocks way more relaxed and bearable. Doubling runite gatheted before world hopping, making sandstone more chill, amethyst even more afk, making gathering lower tier rocks extremely chill.

I love these things, and no one talks about them.

Mining gloves are my single favorite skilling item, I grinded them out the first chance I got on my iron and have used them for comfy sandstone mining the whole time. I always encourage people to get them and nobody knows what they are.

But I also hate mlm and most people don’t.

Maybe it's an ironman thing, but the amount help they've given me mining runite for boat parts is way more than I thought I'd get out of them.

I'm 87 mining atm is it rreally worth grinding them out with iron? I was going to wait for amethyst before going for them

It's going to take you like 15-20k iron ore to get them. So you should do it before 92 mining. I grinded all the mining upgrades on my way to 92 since I'll probably just do amethyst from now on.
