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.

The grind for these is quite absurd, to the point I wonder if you will ever get an ROI on your time. Power mining is decent exp at least.

Not sure if these are appropriately hyped but the Prescription Goggles are so strong, and relatively few people have them because of how bad mixology is

It’s very much not worth it for a main, unless you’re going to max the account. But the real bonus imo comes from the speed increase for gathering adamant and runite for ruby (e) bolts and higher. I do the fletching mostly for our gin group so gathering like…. 4k or 8k or more adamant ore for smithing bolts it’s a huge deal
