To those wondering about alching in F2P:
If you have a high amount of cash to start with, buy Adamant Platebodies.
You can currently buy them for 9780 and they alch for 9984 (+204 profit).
If you have a low amount of cash to start with, buy Mithril Daggers.
You can currently buy them for 97 and they alch for 195 (+98 profit).
EDIT: This doesn't include price of Nature Runes. No F2P items can actually profit.
As of the last time I checked, only Air Battlestaves and Dragon Halberds could.
This means you get 28 logs every time you do a inventory fill oak log run.
Now imagine if you did a total of twelve full log runs.
That would be a total of 840 logs (unless I'm wrong).
Much cheaper then buying tons like Truce did, don't you think? (And you get experience)
I bought Maples. I'll need to burn 75k more for 99 FM; currently about 18k more for 90 FM.
Do you want to go cut me 57k more Maples? No, so I'll just buy them. FM is a cheap skill.
