The Basics
Mining is one of the 24 Skills that you can train on. This is a skill where you can extract ore from different types of rocks, in which you can sell or smelt in to bars for Smithing.
Rocks
Different rocks contain different types of ores. You can identify them by colour, or simple right click on a rock and Prospect it. Also note that you will need a certain Mining Level to obtain different ores.
Once you have found the rock countaining the ore you wish to obtain, click on it to start mining. You will need to have your pickaxe in your inventory, or wielding it to be able to mine rocks. You will see your character starting to swing his/her pick at the rock. This is an automatic process. The speed at which you mine ores is based on a combination of your Mining Level and the type of Pickaxe you are using.
Ores
Once you have obtained your ores, you can sell them for a certain price, or smelt them into bars which are used for Smithing (into weapons or armour). I will post a Smithing guide soon (:Edgeville Dungeon
Edgeville Dungeon has a large number of monsters in it. For players with lower combat levels, bring only the items you don't mind losing. Ensure that you also bring armour that provides decent protection and lots of food! Check the previous post, FOOD GUIDE for more information. Below shows the route from the start of the dungeon all the way to the Hill Giants. With a Brass Key, you will be able to exit the dungeon via ladder near the giants, and be able to unlock the door of the shed above. You may use the shed to access the dungeon anytime again in the future if you still have the Brass Key.If you have a full inventory, you can exit the dungeon by the place where you entered from, or the shed above the Hill Giants. From the shed, Varrock and the Grand Exchange are to the east.

Rangers
For those who prefer nimble attacks from afar
Advantages: Range - Lets the archer attack from afar, throught fences or places where melee fighters can't reach them. Light - This allows rangers to conserve more energy for pursuit of targets. Articulated armour - Leather/Hides provide good protection from magical spells.
Disadvantages: Protection - Rangers' lightweight armour make them weak against melee attacks.
Mages
For those who prefer to use the powerful art of magic
Advantages: Spells - Mages have the ability to use powerful spells, depending on their Magic Levels.
Disadvantages: Soft-to-the-touch armour - Mages wear these cloaks to boost their magical abilities. However, by doing this they have turned themselves into 'Walking Pincusions'. Archers' arrows can easily pierce their robes and cloaks.
