Woodcutting is a gathering skill that primarily involves chopping trees to obtain logs used in the Fletching, Firemaking, and Construction skills. Players with a higher Woodcutting level can chop down new types of trees and cut down trees quicker, especially as higher levels of axes become available.

Woodcutting is a useful skill for a low-levelled player to make money early in the game. On the map, locations of rare trees can be located with a tree File:Rare trees icon.png icon.

Mechanics

Both Woodcutting level and tier of axe determines players' speed of chopping logs. Players with high enough Attack levels can equip the axes that match the respective metals, but having an axe equipped is not necessary in order to chop a tree; having one in the player's inventory also works.

Most trees follow the same mechanics when cut, rolling to chop a log every 4 game ticks. All trees have different chances to chop a log depending on the tree being cut, the player's Woodcutting level, and the axe being used. With a high Woodcutting level and a good axe, a 100% success rate can be achieved when cutting certain lower-level trees.

Trees despawn on a timer that activates after the first cut and regenerates if players stop cutting the tree before it is fully chopped. The regeneration rate is equal to the chopping time. So chopping for 10 seconds, then stopping for 10 seconds will let the tree recover to full.

Tree Despawn time
Oak tree 27 seconds
Willow tree 30 seconds
Teak tree 30 seconds
Maple tree 1 minute
Hollow tree 36 seconds
Mahogany tree 1 minute
Arctic pine tree 1 minute, 24 seconds
Yew tree 1 minute, 54 seconds
Magic tree 3 minutes, 54 seconds
Redwood tree 4 minutes, 24 seconds

After a tree depletes, a timer counts down to its respawn. Each tree has its own timer and is roughly related to the tier of tree. Oak and willow trees take 8.4 seconds, maple trees take 35.4 seconds, yew trees take 59.4 seconds, and magic and redwood trees take 119.4 seconds.

The beaver is a skilling pet that can be obtained while training Woodcutting. The chances of getting it are dependent on the player's Woodcutting level, and the time it takes to gather a resource.
