Cannonball smither is best method in my opinion.

Personally i tried one. Two shifts of 2/3 hours and second one it got banned. Would u recommend a safer way to do it. If there is then i might hand create a few more accs and try again

Haven't had any of my test accounts banned when I was testing my cannonball smithing bot. I would still highly recommend it.

True, but his gp/hr isn't considering using rogue's outfit, and is still one of the better rates. Also it takes significantly less set-up time than some of the other options and 0 investment in materials. Personally I tend to make about 300k average an hour after level 55. I don't believe it'd be worth getting rogues for this method unless you are trying to stretch your bots to their limits before a ban, clearly if you are suiciding it is a waste of valuable time.

Minnows are good, it seems if you can get an account to the platform before a ban you can keep them going a while. Have had several accounts get to 95-97 fishing before being banned catching minnows 12-16hrs a day 5 days a week.

I used to do minnows but raw shark prices took a dive. You're right though, they last a while.
I rogue up my thievers, rogues only takes me 1-1.5 hours and agility takes a session or two.
