High Alching

[Viz]

So i've been considering going for 200m smith xp for a while but in order to reduce how much it will cost I will have to alch everything i make.

Obviously this sounds pretty unappealing so my question is this: Is there anything you can do in RS while you alch? eg a minigame or somewhere i can go to make money at the same time

My current method is to alch in between fish flinger games but i've completed this req for comp cape so not going there any more

You can high alch while doing basically any afk'able skill without interrupting it - so money making wise I'd go for elder trees, as you can do 5 min straight, then move to another, and just alch all the time.

Does it not stop you from wcing when you alch something?

is high alching going to return your cost better than selling the items?

Nope - most skills it just keeps going. I used to spend hours on BoL mining and fishing while alch'ing.

If you spam it too fast then it can block the skill from happening (but it picks back up when you stop), but it's easy to get into a rhythm and watch TV at the same time.

An exception is Runespan, where it does interrupt.

So the best things are AFK'able skills like elders.
