Guide to 99 Firemaking

First of all, Runescape is a massive multiplayer online game that you can play from your browser. You do not need to be a member to get and enjoy 99 firemaking. Being a Member is just to get the firemaking cape, unless they change it or have changed it.

Also, another benefit of being a member is that if you want to chop your way to 99 firemaking, you have the option of the dragon woodcutting axe for faster chopping. Other than there isn't a huge benefit in actually doing the burning.

This guide is for members and non-members.
The highlight of 99 firemaking is the fact that you can get your first 99 skill and the cape is one of the best in most people's opinions.

Here Is My Guide:
Materials Before Starting:

Axe (Only if you want to get woodcutting experience up as well)
Money (1,737,308 gp total if you are going to buy)(Recommended Method)
Tinderbox (1 gp)
Determination

Here is a guide to keep yourself motivated to reach this near impossible goal of 99 firemaking:

You have to believe that you can get this ultimate goal of 99 firemaking.
Just make sure you take breaks every 15 - 30 minutes or you will get very bored and probably quit.

Remember: DO NOT GO TO TRAIN ANY OTHER SKILL RIGHT NOW. This is a crucial moment and if you go to train another skill, you are only hurting yourself and making it take even longer for your long awaited goal of 99 firemaking.
Focus on 99 firemaking.

Listen to some music while you are burning the logs.
Think of how far you have gotten in such a short amount of time!
One last major tip: Don't look at your experience after every time you finish burning a full inventory of logs. You will get discouraged by how far you still have left. Look at it every 30 - 60 mintues or so and try to make it random so you can see how far you have gotten.
Good luck!

Level 1 - Level 15

Take 62 gold pieces and buy or take your axe and chop regular logs: the beginning of your journey to 99 firemaking.

If you take the 62 gold pieces then go the general store. Buy a tinderbox for 1 gp (you have to do this anyway even if you chose to chop your wood so that you can get the woodcutting skill up as well). Then buy 26 logs and burn them. Rinse and repeat until you have accomplished 15 firemaking.

If you chose to take your axe and chop regular logs then chop 27 logs. Next use your tinderbox on all 27 of the logs. After that, keep on chopping and burning those regular logs until you achieve 15 levels of firemaking.

Congratulations! You have just completed your first step into the race to 99 firemaking.
Now there are two paths that you can follow. You may have seen them above, but if you haven't here they are:

You can buy all of your logs from the general store until level 99 firemaking
You can chop all of your logs until level 99 firemaking
Whichever you prefer is up to you. If you want a fast, cheap way of getting 99 firemaking, then definitely go for the buying option. If you would rather have almost two 99 levels and an even cheaper way, but ultimately slower, you should choose the path that involves cutting your own wood.

Level 15 - Level 30

This is your second step into getting that must have goal of 99 firemaking.

If you choose to buy all of your logs rather than chop them down, get at least 1098 gold pieces more to buy your next set of logs. (If you don't know how to make money well, check out my free guide to making millions in Runescape gold pieces. Here is a link: [insert link here]) Now, buy 26 oak logs from the general store and burn them. Next, buy more logs and burn them until you run out of that 1098 gold pieces in your inventory.

Great Job! You are now at level 30! This is a great level in firemaking and a good milestone for getting 99 firemaking so keep at it and don't give up!

Level 30 - Level 99

You are probably thinking, "Wow, is he serious?" Well, if you want a fast, cheap way to get to 99 firemaking, I am very serious. Now is the time for your determination to shine through.

If you choose to buy your logs then you will have to get exactly 1,737,148 gp. I know it is a lot of money, but if you follow my guide to making money (link above) or if you have your own strategy then you will easily get this money very fast. I suggest making this money before you start. After you have the required gp, start to buy 26 willow logs from the general store that has a lot, and make sure that you are buying for 12 gp each, no more than that or you will end up paying more. You'll have your goal of 99 firemaking at a breakneck speed.

If you choose to chop your logs then make sure you have at least an adamant axe by now. Also, get a rune axe once you have the level. Keep chopping and burning like before, but stick to willows as these are very, very, very quickly chopped. Then, burn them and repeat. You'll have 99 firemaking and possibly 99 woodcutting in no time at all.

Very Nice Job! You have just achieved a nice level 99. If you are a member to Runescape then go and buy the Firemaking cape and flaunt it around to everyone. Don't call people "noobs" that don't have a firemaking cape because that is annoying and does not help anything. Have a party at the party hall. Now you are ranked up their with the other greatest players in Runescape who have also achieved 99 firemaking.
