Other Zero Time Methods:

Fletching Darts:

Fletching darts is considered one of the fastest methods of training fletching, however expensive at later levels. This along side the buy limit really prevents this method from being feasible unless players are able to buy the materials in bulk. Below is a table of the rates for fletching darts in Old School RuneScape.

Fletching Bolts:

Much like fletching darts, fletching bolts is another very quick method of training your fletching in Old School RuneScape and if done correctly, can actually produce a profit albeit smaller than fletching bows. Players should note that the buy limit with these similarly will prevent you from producing large quantities of experience at once unless the player is able to find a bulk seller. Below is a table of the rates for fletching darts in Old School RuneScape.

Semi-Zero Time Methods:

Arrows:

Fletching arrows (especially for iron accounts) can be incredibly fast if you have plenty of leftover arrowheads from PvM and skilling. These typically range anywhere from 40,000 experience per hour at level 1 all the way to 600,000+ experience per hour at 82 Fletching making this a good method to do while training other skills or just relaxing. Below is a table of the rates for fletching arrows in Old School RuneScape.

Notes:

The Grand Exchange is an excellent resource for buying and selling materials.

Cutting your own logs can save money but is more time-consuming.

It's a good idea to alternate between Shortbows and Longbows to maintain variety in your training.

Making Arrow Shafts is fast and easy but can be expensive.

High-level Fletching can be profitable, especially when creating Magic Shortbows and Broad Arrows.

Remember that Fletching, like any skill, requires time and dedication to level up. I hope this guide helps you on your journey to mastering Fletching in Old School RuneScape. Good luck!
