Market Strategy

  • Demand is driven by Fletching trainers passing through 69 to higher levels and by ironmen building rune crossbows
  • Supply is gated by runite limbs (Smithing) and yew stocks (Fletching); both intermediates have steady availability
  • Buy limit of 10,000 per 4 hours supports bulk Fletching grinds without GE friction

Trading Tips

Compare GE price vs (yew stock + runite limbs): a positive spread means fletchers profit by selling unstrung
Strung Rune crossbow demand is steady; the unstrung form generally trades close to material cost
