Woodcutting

Woodcutting is a gathering skill that primarily involves chopping trees to obtain logs used in the Fletching and Firemaking 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.

Equipment

Axes

Various equipment may be used to interact with trees. Most trees require an axe to chop. All basic axes (Bronze through Rune) can be obtained from the "Master Forester" NPC in the skilling zone (Skilling Teleport portal at ::home).

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.

AFK Zone

In the AFK Zone located at home you can AFK chop the "Golden tree" which gives around 150k xp/hr. Additionally, there are "Cyber Palm"s in the donator zone (::dz).
