free vs membership

[Ciks]

what re the benefits for membership and ı see memebership give extra skills and missıon so if we re free palyer we cant obtain them

[Polraudio]

I have been playing since 2003 and from my experiences id highly suggest playing free for a while then paying for membership. Id say do up to at least the Dragon Slayer quest to get a good idea what runescape has to offer before getting membership(or til you get annoyed with all the free limitations).

is it possible to buy membership with game currency

[Aquasword480]

Like 300 more quests, waaay more bosses/items/everything, pretty much the entire world as F2P only have a very small portion, and as F2P you can't level up the vast majority skills past 5.

F2P is effectively a very meaty demo to get you oriented.

You can buy bonds in-game. One bond can be exchanged for 14 days of membership or other stuff like treasure hunter keys or RuneCoins.

yes it is possible, but It's a lot of work to do that as a low level free to play player. I suggest to buy membership with real money until you are high level and you can do efficient PVM

A bond is worth about 27m and you can easily make that within 30hrs+ from just making "Spilder Silk Robe Tops"

Then you can just start working your way towards bossing and you'll easily be able to afford membership with just ingame GP easily.

As I said 30hrs+ if you're efficient it'll take exactly 30hrs.

30 hours+ starting from level 1?

Spider Silk robe top is only Level 24 and you can get that easily within an hour.

It is possible to earn membership through you ingame wealth by buying a bond at the grand echange in varrok for 26m.

A good way to make money is by mining rune and luminite ores in the mining guild in falador requiring level 60 mining and it is around 2m an hr.

As a member if you are good at bossing you can make 6m, 10m, even 50m per hour depending on how dedicated you are to perfecting the combat system.

heavy p2w in a nutshell

This game isn't P2W as to max all your skills out with IRL cash would take £10k+ as "A Friend" spent $13,300 to get all 99's in 2016 and that was before the new skills.

I pay for membership yearly with in-game currency during the VIP membership events. This next event I'll be adding my alternate account onto the VIP membership list.
There are in game bosses that drop items worth well above the in-game bond currency price and it doesn't take much effort to do simple tasks for players who can't play high level pvm content. There's no need to pay for membership with real life currency if you plan on being active.
