What Are The Best Ways To Cut Yew Trees?
Rune axes are the best axe for F2P players because they have high stats for woodcutting.
You’ll need at least level 41 in Woodcutting to use it. But since Yew trees require level 60 to chop, this likely won’t be a problem. ..
The members of your party will want to use a Dragon Axe, Infernal Axe, or Crystal Axe.
Dragon axes are relatively affordable and have a high chopping ability in Old School RuneScape. ..
The Infernal Axe offers the same stats as a Dragon Axe, but it has a 1 in 3 chance to set a log on fire which provides you with free firemaking experience too. Nice stuff! ..
Both axes require level 61 Woodcutting, with the Infernal Axe also requiring a level 85 Firemaking. ..
But the best axe for cutting in the game is the Crystal Axe, which is about 4.5% faster than a Dragon and Infernal Axe. ..
To get yourself a Crystal Axe, you’ll need to complete the quest “Song of the Elves” and have at least level 71 woodcutting and 50 agility. ..
This axe is more expensive to use than the others, since it degrades with consistent use and has to be constantly charged with crystal shards. But stats-wise, you won’t find a better axe for snatching up yew logs.
