  RSgoldfast-OSRS: AFK Melee Profit Picks (7 views)

5 Dec 2025 13:49

Every Old School RuneScape player knows the feeling-you want to play, you want to make progress, but you don't want to sweat through Slayer tasks, bosses, or high-intensity clicks. Some days you just want to relax, put on a show, vibe out, and still make decent GP.



That's where low-attention, semi-AFK monsters shine. These are the spots you can camp for steady GP without needing perfect clicks or full focus. Over the years, I've cycled through dozens of options, but five monsters consistently remain my go-tos whenever I want reliable money with minimal effort.



In this guide, I'm ranking the top five low-attention monsters I still camp in 2025, from #5 (my least-picked) all the way to #1 (my absolute favorite and borderline addiction).



Let's dive in.



5. Brutal Black Dragons-Catacombs of Kourend



Brutal black dragons kick off the list at #5-not because they aren't good, but because they're the least AFK of the five. You do need to pay mild attention due to their drops and trip length. They drop two black dragonhide at a time, their bones are valuable, and if you're looting both, your inventory fills fast. Expect around 6-8 kills per trip depending on RNG.



Still, they remain an iconic, low-effort money maker with terrific GP/hour for minimal focus.



Best Weapons & Setup



If we're talking max efficiency:



Twisted Bow (BiS)

Kills per hour: 80-90

GP per hour: 1.9M-2.2M

Assumes Rigor and high-end gear



But not everyone has a Tbow-and that's fine. A Dragon Hunter Crossbow is still extremely strong here:



Dragon Hunter Crossbow

Kills per hour: 65-75

GP per hour: 1.6M-1.8M



You can also use:



Dragon crossbow

Toxic blowpipe (but expect supply costs)



Brutal Blacks are consistent, relaxing, and profitable-but the short trip length holds them back from being super AFK.



4. Skeletal Wyverns-Asgarnian Ice Dungeon



Skeletal Wyverns have been an AFK staple for over a decade, and they're still an amazing choice for players who want steady GP without constant clicking. While they aren't quite as profitable as Brutal Blacks, they require noticeably less attention and offer multiple combat style options.



Melee Setup



Using a Dragon Hunter Lance with best-in-slot melee gear, you can expect:



95-105 kills per hour

1.5M-1.7M GP/hour



BUT-if you melee them, you must use an Ancient Wyvern Shield.



Using a Dragonfire Shield? You will get frozen. A lot. Enough to reduce your kills per hour significantly.



Ranged Setup (Better & More AFK)



The more AFK style is ranged with a Dragon Hunter Crossbow, where safe-spotting is very easy:



120-130 kills per hour

1.9M-2.1M GP/hour



You also need fewer supplies, meaning fewer bank trips-perfect for long session AFKing.



Overall, skeletal wyverns remain one of the cleanest balance points between GP/hour, chill gameplay, and consistent drops.



3. Nechryaels-Slayer Tower



Nechryaels (normal-not superior versions) take the #3 spot. They hit the sweet spot between AFK and active: you do have to move around every few seconds due to fast kills, but the money is great and the attention requirement is very low.



Weapon Options



You have two main routes:



Grazi Rapier



Kills per hour: 230-250

GP per hour: 1.2M-1.325M

Good, but not the best.



Emberlight (Best Option)



The Emberlight is effectively BiS here-and it costs nothing to use.



Kills per hour: 270-290

GP per hour: 1.4M-1.5M



Fast kills + low attention + easy banking make Nechs a long-time favorite, especially for players who like consistent loot piles and combat XP at the same time.



2. Gargoyles-Slayer Tower



Gargoyles have been one of OSRS's signature AFK money monsters since release-and they absolutely deserve that legacy.



They're aggressive, hits are light, drops are constant, and the area works perfectly for long AFK stretches. Just pick up your loot, reset aggro every 10 minutes, and keep swinging.



Weapon Options



Granite Hammer (Affordable Option)



Kills per hour: 205-225

GP per hour: 1.0M-1.1M



Cheap, consistent, and great for mid-tier players.



Inquisitor's Mace (BiS)



If you have it, use it-this weapon shreds gargoyles.



Kills per hour: 240-260

GP per hour: 1.22M-1.3M



Gargoyles rarely dip in profitability because their alchables and granite drops maintain strong value. For years they've been the backbone of AFK money making, and they still hold up extremely well.1. Kurasks-Iorwerth Dungeon (Prifddinas)



My #1 AFK Creature of All Time



Kurasks have always been my personal comfort pick, and that hasn't changed at all in 2025. They are incredibly AFK, extremely cheap to kill, and surprisingly good money-especially in the Iorwerth Dungeon, where you also receive crystal shard drops to boost profit per hour even more.



Everything about Kurasks is smooth:



They're aggressive

They hit softly

Their defenses are low

The loot is surprisingly strong

Shards add bonus profit

And you can camp them for hours with a single inventory



It's pure OSRS therapy.



Best Weapon



You only need one item:



Leaf-bladed Battleaxe (best-in-slot and dirt cheap)



Rates



205-220 kills per hour

1.44M-1.55M GP/hour



This makes Kurasks:



More AFK than Brutal Blacks

Cheaper than Skeletal Wyverns

More relaxing than Gargoyles

And more efficient than most AFK options in the entire game



If I had to pick one low-attention money maker to use forever, this is it.



Final Thoughts



These are my personal top five low-attention monsters in OSRS-five spots I still camp today whenever I want passive income without the stress of bosses or high-intensity Slayer. To recap:



Top 5 Low-Attention Money Makers



1.Kurasks-Best overall AFK + great profit



2.Gargoyles-The classic AFK moneymaker



3.Nechryaels-Fast kills, great XP, solid GP



4.Skeletal Wyverns-Very chill, versatile, good money



5.Brutal Black Dragons-More attention, higher profit



Each of these spots has its own niche:



Want the best AFK per hour? Go Kurasks.



Want classic money + semi-AFK? Gargoyles.



Want fast XP and profit? Nechs.



Want true AFK range training? Wyverns.



Want high GP with big drops? Brutal Blacks.



Whether you're working, watching shows, or simply wanting to play OSRS without full focus, these monsters offer some of the best balance between effort and earnings in the game.
