How to manage your Miscellania Kingdom effectively
Look at the following two questions:
- How do you make money in Runescape?
- How in the world did you get to 80th in Farming?
What could be common about these questions?
Well… Funny thing is that they have the same answer for me: Miscellania Kingdom. Yes, managing Miscellania Kingdom is one of my main sources of money and it is also a daily source of FREE tree seeds for my Farming skill.
This article is about managing your Miscellania Kingdom effectively. That’s it – effectively. Many people know the rules of this minigame, many people are high level enough to play it, but only a few knows how to really get profit out of it. Let’s take a look.
Miscellania Kingdom is located on the Miscellania Island (north-west corner of the map) and you can get there by ship from Rellekka or via a fairy ring. There are a few quests you can do there and as a result of the quests completion you can get access to the minigame called “Miscellania Kingdom Management”. There are guides about the quests and there are guides about the minigame on many fan sites. And yes I would recommend following them in order to get the quests done. But the guides about actually managing the Kingdom are way to complex. Don’t ask me why!
It is not that complex in reality and here are just a few simple rules and steps I follow to (Remember the two questions?):
- Make money
- Get free tree seeds
Quests To Do:
- Throne of Miscellania (to get access to the Kingdom management)
- Royal Trouble (to make the Kingdom management really profitable)
- Fairy Tale Part I and start the Part II, so you could use fairy rings to access the island.
Note that the requirements for these quests are quite demanding:
- Hero’s, Fremennik Trials, Lost City and Nature Spirit Quests (what a list!)
- In addition to the quests requirements: 40 agility, 40 slayer, 35 herblore and 45 woodcutting.
Assuming that you have done the quests, here are simple steps to manage your Kingdom:
Initial setup:
- Go to the Kingdom and raise your popularity to 100%. It may take 10-15 min. I personally cut maples there, but if you are better at mining or fishing – you can do it too.
- Go visit consular Ghrim in the castle (you’ll know how to find him after the quests). Ask him about managing your Kingdom. He will tell you that your popularity is good and present you with a screen where you can make management actions (such as, like put/withdraw money, reallocate worker assignments between resources).
- Put at least 750K in the coffins. No less, otherwise you won’t get full rewards. I usually have 1200K in there and add 300K every 4 days, as money gets spent.
- Select assignments. You will have 15 workers to allocate to resources (jobs). Put 9 of them to maples and remaining 6 to flax or coal. (I get maples and coal, but maples and flax works just as well)
- Leave the Kingdom and go do whatever you wish to do in RS or real life
Daily routine:
- Once a day visit the Kingdom. Use fairy ring (CIP) to get there (That’s why Fairy Tale quests are important. Fairy ring is the only decent way to get there). Before you go there make sure you have 6-7 open slots in your bank.
- On the way to the castle stop and chop some maples to restore your popularity. Just a few chops really (10-20 seconds).
- Go to consular Ghrim and ask him how your Kingdom is doing. He will tell you that your popularity is 100% and ask if you want to collect resources. Say ‘yes’, and he will show you what your workers collected. After that he will show you the ‘management’ screen. If you have less than 750K in the coffins, add some money. I do it by 300K chunks, so I don’t need to bring money there every day.
- That’s it. Teleport to your bank and see what you’ve got. You should have 803 maple logs, 328 coal (or 600+ flax, if you do flax instead of coal), 8 bird nests as a bonus from maples (that’s where free tree seeds come from!), 2-3 gems (or herb seeds if you do flax).
Some math to make you feel good:
Once a day your workers will take 75K from the kingdom coffins.
In return you get:
- 800 maples – 80K
- 330 coal – 60-66K
- 2-3 gems – 1-5K
- 8 bird nests (with rings, tree seeds and eggs) – hmm, hard to say, maybe 80-100K on average
So your daily profit is: 146-176K. Not bad, huh?
And, of course, this is the perfect way to raise farming, by getting daily supply of free tree seeds. Assuming you plant all tree seeds, you still get daily profit of 66-76K.
So back to the questions:
- How do you make money in Runescape?
- How in the world did you get to 80th in Farming?
Well, you know, I just do this ‘Kingdom Management thingy’.

Unfortunately, this guide is a little dated and prices have changed. Especially since the Grand Exchange is now here.
As of todays date: July 26, 2008 the price for these items on the Grand Exchange are:
Coal is between 183 - 201 (Coffer price per coal 91.6)
Maples are between 42 - 46 (Coffer price per maple log 56.1)
Birds Nest price - 3,552 - 3,924
Based on these new statistics
330 coal = 60,390 - 66,330 / Coffer price 30,228 (profit 30,162 - 36,102)
800 maples = 33,600 - 36,800 / Coffer price 44,880 (lose on logs 11,280 - 8080)
2-3 gems (I’ll leave at the above guess) 1k - 5k
Birds nest - 8, so profit 28,416 - 31,392,
Seeds, I would have to disagree with the above estimates (IMHO). More in the range of 20k - 70k a day. Most days I get acorns, apple seeds, orange tree seeds etc. Very rarely do I receive a yew tree seed or magic seed or a “rare” seed.
Even taking this into consideration and adding up out of pocket expenses the avg daily profit at todays date is between $68,298 - $134,414.
Still an amount that is quite generous for going over to Miscellania, raising your approval rating back up, in about a 10 minute period of time.
The big picture is to look at the yearly outcome of this profit. on a yearly basis, you are looking at a profit of:
$24,928,770 - $49,061,110 quite a nice chunk of money to apply to raising your skills toward that 99skill cape or buying that piece of equipment you had your eyes on.
Great guide, just needed a little updating : ]

How do I reset my timing for my payment? I tried withdrawing all money and leaving workers to idle but didn’t work.

Maples are now 36 ea, and are really hard to sell. Bird nests make up for this, but may be more profitable to have fishing instead.

how do you get the subjects to work for you i have 100% and 1m in the coffers but they arent colletcing anything
lee Says:June 10th, 2009 at 4:02 am
forget my last comment
Julian Says:i use 9 on flax and 6 on maples you still get enough maples to get 8 nests so yeah idk fishing kinda blows it doesnt give enough money and with the maples you could get a yew or magic seed so yeah my idea works i guess
and some1 should update the prices on this you barely make any money at any of this items anymore so
