Common cost questions
How much does it cost to get 99 in RS3?
It depends entirely on the method. Take the XP needed (13, 034, 431 for a 99 from level 1), divide by the XP you get per action, and multiply by the cost of each action. This calculator does that for you, enter your method's XP-per-action and GP-per-action and it returns the exact total.
What is gp/xp?
GP per XP is how much gold each point of experience costs you: total cost divided by total XP. It's the standard way to compare training methods, a lower gp/xp is cheaper per XP, even if the hourly cost looks higher.
Can a skill make money while training?
Yes, gathering skills and some production methods profit. Enter a negative GP-per-action (what you make per action) and the calculator shows total profit instead of cost.
