Unlock
You can start with logs and a knife. Broad arrows want a Slayer unlock. Darts want the mould path the wiki lists.
The route

Mid

- Click
- Click the stack until it is gone.

Inventory
Nothing you wear changes the click. Bring a knife. Use a bank preset. Bring only what this method uses. Leave the spare gear in the bank.
Money fork
Broad arrows cost coins. Stringing yew and magic longbows can pay. This is a bank skill. Check the price first.
Iron fork
If you cannot buy the supplies, gather them yourself. Stay on the earlier step until you have them.
Kit
Nothing you wear changes the click. Bring a knife. Use a bank preset.
Mistakes
Do not make broad arrows before the Slayer unlock. Do not fletch a 99 of bows you will never string.
Stop
Stop when you have the level you came for. A quest, a prayer, or a weapon. Level 99 is a cape. You do not need it to use the skill.
