1 Hour of Runespan without switching platforms.

In this video I am on a platform which is only beneficial to people with 90+ Runecrafting as that is the requirement to siphon from the Soul Esswraiths. In my opinion this is the best platform in the high level Runespan.

I gained 98k Runecrafting xp in one hour along with 2k points, which is an average rate for not switching platforms. It is obviously better to switch between 2-3 platforms when nodes are present on them for more xp. When staying on one platform, anywhere from 85k-115k xp per hour can be obtained, where switching between platforms can be anywhere from 100k-140k xp per hour.

Points are basically useless unless you are going for the Trimmed Completionist Cape or want the robes or giant pouch. I already have all these, too bad there isn't an xp exchange for points.

Esswraiths, when siphoned, will break down after 10 successful siphons, granting 50 Rune Essence once broken down. This is a good way to keep your essence up for Nodes while there aren't any Nodes currently spawned.

At times you will recieve the message "You can hear a wizard calling for your help. Find him and he may give you a reward." This is a yellow wizard that spawns randomly around the Runespan. It is NOT worth looking for the wizard unless you can see him from your current platform, in which you should go give him the best rune you can for about 6.5k xp (at level 95).

Runespheres are not worth looking for either. They normally take way too long to find and don't even give decent xp. You get 10 rune dust for successfully siphoning it, and you can gain a maximum of 1000 rune dust per day, which is only 10k xp, and can take up to 30 minutes to get. So you are much better off staying on
your platform.
