|Track [[Polar kebbits]] at the polar hunting area. Their furs sell for about {{GEPrice|Polar kebbit fur}} coins each. Using the [[fairy ring]] system can greatly reduce banking time, as there is a nearby fairy ring in the area and a bank in [[Zanaris]]. Another solution for banking is at Keldagrim bank or using the mining carts to the Grand Exchange, as banking with fairy ring requires an extra inventory space for dramen/lunar staff unless [[Fairy tale III]] is completed. You earn about 3-5 full inventories p/h. So that's 84-140 furs, roughly {{formatnum:{{#expr: ( 84*{{GEP|Polar kebbit fur}})}}}} - {{formatnum:{{#expr: ( 140*{{GEP|Polar kebbit fur}})}}}} an hour. It's a good profit if you work hard enough.
|Completion of [[Lost City]] is recommended though not required.

|Level 15
|Catch [[Ruby Harvest]] [[butterfly|butterflies]], priced at around {{GEPrice|Ruby harvest (item)}} coins each. Banking at [[Zanaris]] is recommended. Butterfly jars cost one (1) [[coins]] each at a hunting shop (Butterfly jars can also be bought from the grand exchange for 200 coins). If you have started [[Fairytale II - Cure a Queen]], you may stop by the Yanille Bank, withdraw a [[Dramen staff|Dramen]]/[[Lunar staff]], butterfly net and 27 coins, then head to the Hunter store to buy 27 butterfly jars. Use the fairy ring to the northwest to go to Pistacoris Hunting area, get 27 catches, then return to Yanille bank via Fairy ring, deposit the 27 Ruby Harvest jars, withdraw another 27 coins and repeat.
|Completion of [[Lost City]] is recommended though not required.

|Level 17
|Catch [[Baby Impling]]s at the [[Impetuous Impulses]] activity in [[Puro-Puro]] or throughout ''RuneScape''. These are very common and are valued at approximately {{GEPrice|Baby impling jar}} coins. Be sure to bring your butterfly net and, if it is not your first time, a couple of impling jars which sell for {{GEPrice|Impling jar}} at the Grand Exchange. Catch them in the south east corner of [[Puro-Puro]] and bank them in a nearby bank. Always save nine (9) baby [[impling jar]]s so you can trade them for an inventory full of jars with [[Elnock Inquisitor]]. And to even make the profit better, you should trade all [[Baby Impling]]s for 3 jars and then sell those at the Grand Exchange for {{GEPrice|Impling jar}} per 1.
|None. Though completion of [[Lost City]] is recommended to reach to [[Puro-Puro]] faster.

|Net trap [[Swamp Lizard (Hunter)|Swamp Lizards]] in the [[Canifis]] hunting area. Players can bank them at the [[Canifis]] bank. They sell for around {{GEPrice|swamp lizard}} coins each. Doing [[In Search of Myreque]] would make catching the lizards a whole lot easier by using the trapdoor behind the bar. While hunting swamp lizards, a player may gain over 46k experience per hour, and about 200k GP per hour. To make the profit even larger, a player should bring a beast of burden to catch more swamp lizards in one run, so the player does not have to bank that much, as well as it would help to have the requirements to wield the lizards so that one extra lizard can be taken each run. If a player were to catch, and bank, swamp lizards from level 29 hunter all the way up to level 99 hunter,with the right strategy, the player would make {{#expr:{{GEP|swamp lizard}}*85674}} coins in profit, & it would take exactly 85,674 swamp lizards.

|Pitfall [[Graahk]]. The good Graahk furs are more in demand than good Kyatt furs. They sell for {{GEPrice|Graahk fur}} coins. The down side is that the Tatty furs sell for only around 50-70 coins each. You will find it much easier to have duelling rings and a spirit graahk to speed up the process of banking and returning. Using a [[Tai bwo wannai teleport]] is useful though expensive at {{GEPrice|Tai bwo wannai teleport}} coins. It is possible to make around 350k an hour using this method.
|Completion of the Shilo Village is recommended, though not required.

|Level 53
|[[Box trap]] [[chinchompas]] at the [[Piscatoris Hunter area]]. They sell for around {{GEPrice|Chinchompa}} coins each, and are also stackable, so players do not need to bank until done. If done effectively this gives about 170 chinchompas in an hour, yielding approximately {{formatnum:{{#expr: {{GEPrice|Chinchompa|n}}*170 round -3}}}} coins per hour.
|None. Though completion of [[Eagles' Peak]] is recommended to reach the [[Piscatoris Hunter area]] faster.

|Level 55
|Players can trap [[Sabre-toothed kyatt]]s at the Trollweiss Hunter area. Their [[Kyatt fur|fur]] sells for about {{GEPrice|Kyatt fur}} coins each. Keep in mind, tatty fur's are only worth {{GEP|Tatty kyatt fur}} coins so it is not worth it to keep them. If you have done [[Dream Mentor]] you can teleport to Moonclan Island and bank with [['Bird's-Eye' Jack]] then have any other Moonclan npc kick you off the island. A faster transportation method could be to use a duelling ring and/or an Arctic Bear familiar.
|Completion of [[Dream Mentor]], so you can bank without being kicked off the island

|Level 57
|Use [[falconry]] for hunting [[Dark kebbit|Dark kebbits]]. It takes about 5 minutes to get full inventory or [[Dark kebbit fur|dark kebbit furs]]. One fur costs you 17.86 coins (price of purchasing a falcon). Area can be quickly accessed through [[Fairy rings]] ('''A K Q''') and the obtained furs can be banked in [[Zanaris]]. Later you can either sell the furs itself for {{GEPrice|Dark kebbit fur|n}} coins each, but about two times more profitable option is to visit [[Fancy-dress shop owner]] in [[Varrock]] who will turn 2 of your furs and 600 coins into [[Gloves of silence]], which currently sells about {{GEPrice|Gloves of silence|n}} on GE. 13 gloves can be produced per trip, which costs 8400 coins, while the gloves should yield you about 30K profit (depends on current price). There is not constant demand for Gloves of silence on GE, but you should be able to sell them in reasonable time horizon, as they are popular in [[Thieving]].
|500 coins for borrowing a falcon per one inventory + 600 coins for each Gloves of silence you are about to make
Access to fairy rings for fast travel (not required)

|Level 63
|Box trap red chinchompas, also called [[Carnivorous chinchompa]]s, at the [[Feldip Hunter area]]. They sell for about {{GEPrice|Red chinchompa}} gold each. It will be slow, but the rate will be faster when level 80 is reached. They are also [[stackable]], meaning a player does not have to bank every now and then. This is considered to be a great way to earn money, and isn't interrupted by needs to empty a load of items into the bank, making it one of the easiest money-making techniques available, provided you have the correct level. You will get considerably more catches per hour as your level rises, at level 73 You may catch up to 240 Red Chinchompas in 1 hour and at level 99, it is possible to make up to 350k per hour. Due to bots prices of red chinchompas has gone down significantly.

|Level 83
|Catch [[Dragon impling]]s, at the [[Impetuous Impulses]] activity or throughout RuneScape. They are exceedingly rare, even in [[Puro-Puro]], but are also extremely valuable, with each impling being worth about {{GEPrice|Dragon impling jar}} coins each, sell them at +5% to +20% as they sell at that range and so the price will increase raising max profit per hour, but if you can't sell them at that price range, market price is also good. {{formatnum:{{#expr:{{GEPrice|Dragon impling jar|n}}*1.05 round -2}}}} coins. You can catch, around 1-4 Dragon Implings on a good hour, which makes around a maximum of around {{#expr:({{GEPrice|Dragon impling jar|n}}*4.2)/1000000 round 2}} million coins per hour! But most likely you will only catch 1-2 an hour, so it is advised that you also catch magpie and ninja implings while hunting for dragon implings.
|-500k - 2000k

|Level 91
|Catch [[Kingly impling]]s at the [[Impetuous Impulses]] activity in [[Puro-Puro]] or throughout ''RuneScape''. These are rare and are valued at around {{GEP|Kingly impling jar}} coins each. Be sure to bring your butterfly net and, if it is not your first time, a couple of impling jars which sell for {{GEPrice|Impling jar}} at the Grand Exchange. Catch them in the south east corner of [[Puro-Puro]] and bank them in a nearby bank. Always save nine (9) [[impling jar]]s so you can trade them for an inventory full of jars, or stock up on implings required to exchange for a [[Jar generator]] with [[Elnock Inquisitor]].

This money making method was one of the fastest money making methods in all of Runescape, producing even more than double nature rune crafting. Other high levelled Implings can be caught while hunting for Kingly Implings, meaning if a player didn't catch any Kingly Implings they could still easily make over 600k an hour. However, in an unnanounced update Jagex may have significantly increased the rarity of Kingly Implings, since before they were even more common than Dragon Implings. It is now unsure of the effectiveness of this method.

It may also be added that looting Kingly Imp jars you have a chance to receive an Uncut Onyx, which is currently priced at {{GEP|Uncut onyx}}.

However looting an impling jar can produce other items that may result in loss, so caution is advised when looting Kingly Imps.
