What is better mining or woodcuting in RuneScape?

Answer 1

In my opinion, woodcutting is better for making gold in Runescape.

Reason(s):

Mining doesn't become all too profitable until 80-85(whichever Runite Ore is).
Getting to 80-85 mining takes a lot of hard work, but making 15-20k per ore is a substantial amount of gold.

Woodcutting becomes very profitable at 60. That's when you can start cutting yew logs which sell for 400 gold a piece. It doesn't take long to get a full inventory, and it's usually not as crowded as runite ore is.

It really just depends on what you'd prefer to train.
