Runescape hjælp - Woodcutting

Introduction

Woodcutting is, as the title suggests, the skill needed to cut down trees. Throughout the world of RuneScape, there are many different types of trees which all require a specific level to cut. To cut a tree, you need an axe (hatchet), but you don't need to wield it. The wood is either used for firemaking or fletching, or you can convert it into planks to use it in the construction skill.

But beware of the woodcutting random events! Tree spirits may appear and attack you, trees may become alive and damage your axe, and your axe head can fly off from the handle!

For information on training this skill, please see the Woodcutting training guide. You should also check out our Woodcutting calculator (If it is too slow or doesn't work, use the simple woodcutting calculator).

You can wield the hatchets to get one more space in your backpack, but in order to do this, you will also need a certain attack level.

Inferno Adze

The Inferno Adze is the God sent for Lumberjacks and Pyromaniacs. However with anything that helps anyone greatly it comes with very high requirements. This axe has the same speed and effectiveness as a Dragon Axe yet with upgraded features. Besides having the same comparability’s of a Rune Pickaxe, there is a 30% chance that you will receive both the Woodcutting and Firemaking experience for that log without using it with a tinderbox. You'll still be given the log, so don't worry. Another beautiful aspect of the Adze is you do not have to have any combat requirements in order to wield it. All you must do in order to obtain this majestic axe you must have completed All Fired Up, have 92 Firemaking as well as a variety of other levels and to top it all off, must have lit all 14 Beacons.

Machetes

The 4 different machetes are used to chop down jungle vegetation in the Tai Bwo Wannai village. You can either buy them in Gabooty using the local currency, trading sticks, or you can bring the raw materials to Safta Doctor. The last option is a bit cheaper.

There are no needed levels to wear or use the machetes, but you need a certain level to chop down the jungle vegetation (read more about this in the next section). Below is a table that shows the types of machetes.
