RuneScape 3 is one of the most popular browser MMO games of all time. It’s the third iteration of RuneScape and was released July 2013. The main difference between RuneScape 3 and Old School RuneScape is that RuneScape 3 feels a lot more like a traditional MMO in the sense that it has a hotkey style combat system, more detailed graphics, voice acted quests and a lot of microtransactions.

There are three modes: Normal mode, Ironman mode, and Hardcore Ironman mode. The Normal Mode is the standard RuneScape experience. The Ironman Mode requires you to be self-sufficient, so you have to do everything yourself, and you can't trade or use the Grand Exchange. Hardcore Ironman is the same as Ironman mode, but you only have one life, even though you can buy more lives further on in the game.

RuneScape 3 is a free-to-play game. But you can also buy membership, and it unlocks the entire RuneScape world, giving you access to the members-only areas instantly. Membership also unlocks the 10 member skills that you can only train to level 5 in F2P, exclusive members-only minigames, and it unlocks 180 members-only quests. You can buy membership from the RuneScape official website. You can also buy membership with your hard-earned in-game gold by buying Bonds, and each Bond offers 14 days of membership.

RuneScape 3 is based around training your skills up. F2P players have access to 17 skills while members have access to all 28, including the Invention and Archaeology. For every skill that you train, you have rewards besides the use of the skill itself. At level 99, you can get a Skill Cape that has a nice perk and lets you show off your achievement. For more dedicated players, you have the Master Skill Cape that you can get at a virtual level of 120 in each skill, being 8 times the amount of experience of a regular 99. You also have Expert Skill Capes which you achieve by having 99 in a certain category of skills, and you can also receive a cute little Skilling Pet for each skill randomly by training it and getting it as a drop. If you are a very dedicated player and achieve level 99 in every single skill, you will unlock the Max Cape. For more dedicated players that complete all quests and do a lot of challenges, you will unlock the Completionist Cape.

With the evolution of Combat update, the Combat in RuneScape 3 can be very engaging and intense. If you are not a fan of the evolution of Combat update, you can always choose the Legacy Combat Mode and get a bit of nostalgic feeling into the game.

Quests are essential for any player in RuneScape 3, and some quests can unlock the locked areas or special abilities and Prayers.

RS3 Gold is the most common form of currency in RuneScape 3. It is used among players and non-player characters alike to exchange for items and services. Below are some of the best skills to make gold in RuneScape 3.

Fishing (Profit for 1-99: 75M+)
Sailfish, Karambwan, Rocktail, Shark, and Great White Shark, they are all excellent methods to make money with the Fishing skill. You would get 75M+ gp for getting to level 99, and over 1B for level 120.

Divination (profit for 1-99: 100M+)
Coursed Energy, Elder Energy, and Incandescent Energy are the best methods to make gold with Divination.

Woodcutting (Profit for 1-99: 100M+)
Woodcutting is a good skill to make gold because it is AFK. Cutting Elder logs and Magic logs can be very profitable. Cutting Elder logs is an excellent method that you can make around 1M/H from it.

Fletching (Profit for 1-99: 200M+)
The best methods are making Ascendri Bolts, Bakriminel Bolts, and Onyx Bolts. You can make money off this skill, but you can also lose a lot. Depending on the way you are training Fletching, you can either make money or lose money.

Farming (Profit for 1-99: 100M+)
Some of the best methods are farming Herb and breeding your animals, then selling them either to other players or on the Grand Exchange if they are unchecked. You can also breed Shiny animals, and these sell for much more. Overall, Player Owned Farm is a good money making method for Farming.

Smithing (Profit for 1-99: 150M+)
The profit of making Masterwork armor is 3M/H. Making Glorious Bars and Elder Rune bars are around 2M-3M/H. Making Elder Rune Set is also profitable every once in a while. Not as much as the previous three methods, but it's still pretty good.

Mining (Profit for 1-99: 150M+)
The best methods to make gold with this skill is to mine Light Animica ore, Dark animica ore, Luminite, Banite ore, and Runite ore. You may get 1M-1.5M gp per hour by doing any of these methods, and these methods are very AFK.

Hunter (Profit for 1-99: 200M+)
Grenwalls, Shadow Jadinkos, Black Salamanders, and Red Salamanders, these are all profitable money makers that could earn you over 1M gold per hour.

Runecrafting (Profit for 1-99: 300M+)
Runecrafting is one of the best skills for money-making in RuneScape 3. You can craft Combination runes like Steam Runes, Mud Runes, Lava Runes, Dust Runes, Smoke Runes, as well as Mist Runes. The only downside about Runecrafting is that it's very click-intensive.

Slayer (Profit for 1-99: 400M+)
Slayer is a combat skill, and when you are over level 80 Slayer, there will be a lot of good money making methods open to you. Abyssal Demons, Spiritual Mages, Lava Strykewyrms, Edimmu, Rune Dragons, Ripper Demons, and Camel Warriors, they are all great money makers. If you are a new player, I strongly suggest putting your time into training Slayer. Because in the long run, this skill is the most important, and it is going to get your Combat up and make you money.
