Recipes & batches
Unlock the next skill
Ranching needs 200 Normal Logs gained through Woodcutting and 20,000 GP earned cumulatively from Bank sales. Farming counts Potato Seeds found over time. The skill reference keeps those counters separate from items or currency currently held.
Prepare a crafting or offline session
The batch planner compares target output, completed crafts, ingredients and base action time. Bee feeding uses two Ambervine Leaves per living Bee per hourly feeding before modifiers. Combat preparation also needs the correct equipment slots, food and Auto Eat settings.
Light for Murkwoods
Murkwoods has 36 Darkness. Will o Wisp Lantern supplies 34 Light and cooked Glowfin adds 2 while selected as food. The lantern occupies Offhand, so the active weapon must leave that slot free. Weaver Gloves belong in the Crafting toolbelt.
