Starting Off

To start off, you need to purchase a house which can be done south of ::home by talking to the Estate Agent.

After purchasing a house, a butler can be hired for easy banking purposes.

      • A demon butler is the best you can buy and it is recommended if you are going to go to 99 construction

Gathering supplies

To get started with construction you will need: A hammer, a saw, and nails. All of this can be purchased from the skilling/house store.

The next thing you will need to buy is planks. Starting off you will need regular planks which can be bought from the trading post, or made by using the sawmill operator/lunar plank make.

The lunar spell "Plank Make" requires 86 magic, however it will cost you less money than using the sawmill operator. (e.g. 7,500 coins per mahogany plank vs 10,000 coins per mahogany plank)

Leveling 1-33

Leveling up construction is very easy, all you need to do is make furniture and destroy it repetitively. From levels 1-33 you will be making chairs in the parlor.

Building a room is simple, just walk up to a door hotspot and right click and select "Build Door hotspot"

Once the parlor is build, start by making chairs.

House Locations

There are a couple things to do to upgrade your house. First of all, changing the location of your house.
This can be done by talking to the Estate agent outside of the home portal.
Note: Purchasing locations is a one time expense. It will not cost more money to move your house back to a location which you have already purchased.

The location will change the general look of your house, changing the walls and sometimes the floor.

Notable rooms and "maxing" your house

To "max out" your house, there are a few important rooms you will need. Those being, a study for a lectern, a chapel for an altar, a superior garden for an elixir pool, and a boss portal room for instanced bossing.

Study

The most important thing in a study to build is the lectern which can be used to make teleport tabs to access the cities across Runex, as well as a one click teleport to your own house.

Chapel Room

    • jPBjvxn.png

The chapel room is one of the more pricey rooms, especially if you are looking to completely max it out. The gilded altar with both of the burners can cost close to 240m in just cash (100m per burner and 40m for the 4 gold leaves the altar requires)

Superior Garden

The superior garden is also very expensive, the best tree costs 50m, and the elixir pool ends up being quite expensive at the end of the day.

Boss Portal Room

Spoiler
  • QO8JPjL.png
    • 6jX7uCO.png
  • By creating portals, you can direct them to a variety of different bosses which allow you to fight in a private instance
    • Higher tiers portal frames (teak/mahogany/marble) allow for different bosses
    • Portals are for private usage, so visitors can not use or teleport with your portals
  • Once a portal is created, you must pay the respective pet of the boss to permanently unlock it (unless iron man)
    • You only have to pay the pet once per account, even if you destroy and re-create the boss portal
  • Each usage/teleportation will require a 1-2.5M coin fee, unless you're an iron man (free of charge)
