Harvesting: As you increase your crafting level you’ll learn the value of setting aside a couple of hours every so often just to harvest items that you need RuneScape Gold to craft.
The first few levels will fly by without too many resources used, but of course as your level increases, so will the amount of time and resources it takes you to achieve a new level.
The first thing you need to do before you start harvesting is set up a hot-bar. It’s a good idea to turn to a new bar that has no other keys on it so that you have room for other things that will be useful while you’re harvesting.
Open up your knowledge book, and switch to the Abilities section. Here you’ll find several skills, including those for harvesting. Fishing isn’t something you’re going to need to spend time on, so all you really need is Gathering, Mining, Foresting, Trapping, and collecting (if you spend enough time harvesting you tend to find a lot of as well).
The second thing I think is most important about harvesting is to harvest everything in sight, rather than only what you need for yourself. There are a few reasons for this.
