How to be successful in Runescape!!!!

There are several ways to become "successful" in Runescape. I will put down a few main ways and tricks that will give you the power of not being a noob anymore!

Money
Money is definitely the most sought after object in Runescape. There are several ways to obtain money that are effortless and have great returns.
Selling
Selling equipment is a great way to get money. The trick is to find an area that has good equipment and forage around untill you have what you are looking for, then sell it! One of such places is the Wizard Tower. The Wizard Tower is south of Draynor. It is home to many wizards and a caged Lesser Demon named Lemmy. Kill the wizards in here to get wizard hats and robes, which is the best mage gear available to free-to-play (f2p) players. Also, most of the Rune Mysteries quest takes place in the basement of the tower, and the wizard Sedridor can teleport you to the Rune essence mine to mine rune essence, a material used in runecrafting.
Buying Money
Yes, I said it, BUYING MONEY! Most people think, damn, I'm not going to waste my money on virtual money for a dumb game. Actually, there are several ways to acquire runescape money without paying real money legally. There are a few sites were you can do surveys and get runescape money and even a FREE MEMBERSHIP!



Acquiring Weapons and Armour
Dragon Weapons and Armour
There are a few ways to get dragon weapons and Armour.
1. Buy them off people at banks or in world 2.
2. Get them as a drop from some monsters (this is really hard to do).
3. Buy them in some shops that sell them. If you want a d-long, you need to do the Lost City quest, and once you are in the lost city, you can go to the shop and buy a d-long.
Sacred Clay
Sacred clay armour (in my opinion) are the best in the game and are rewards bought from Stealing creation minigame with points earned by playing the game.
Sacred Clay armour gives a staggering double experience bonus. In order to maximise the efficiency of training, it is recommended to use a rotation method: wear one piece of Sacred clay armour at a time while using a regular weapon like a whip (note this is only recommended for strength armour like Bandos/ helm of Neitiznot, etc,). In this way, you can have the high bonuses of your regular equipment, while still gaining the double experience bonus. However if you use a full set, it will all degrade at a divided rate, but you still have the lower bonuses. You do not need to have a corresponding armour piece with whatever skill you're training in order to receive the double experience bonus. For example, you could be wearing a Sacred Clay coif and train melee, while still getting the double experience bonus.
Players are better off buying only one set of Sacred Clay armour and recharging it, as it costs much less per set recharged, in comparison to buying multiple sets.
Sacred Clay items have 'charge', which is consumed as the player receives combat experience. When the items run out of charge, they will not yield the double experience bonus, and won't be able to transform until they are recharged.
Each piece will give an xp boost until about 33300 experience, with time being irrelevant. Players will always get 33300 experience per piece no matter how many pieces they equip, but with more pieces, the whole set will degrade more slowly. This is because if all 4 pieces were equipped they would give a total of 133220 exp before all pieces are fully degraded (33300*4). Whether you equip one or two or all four, you will get the constant 33300 experience per piece of equipment over the life of the set.
