**<fs 200%>Woodcutting</fs>**

<WRAP justify>
Woodcutting is a gathering skill that primarily involves chopping trees to obtain logs used in the [[skills:fletching|Fletching]], [[skills:firemaking|Firemaking]], and [[skills:construction|Construction]] skills. Players with a higher Woodcutting level can chop down new types of trees and cut down trees quicker. As levels increase, players can use better axes to chop trees faster.

Woodcutting is a useful skill for low-level players to make money early in the game. Cutting Mahogany logs is generally the most profitable woodcutting activity.

At 92 Woodcutting, players can use the bank deposit box at the woodcutting skilling teleport. 

Players have a chance to receive the [[guides:misc:pets|beaver woodcutting pet]] while chopping any tree.

**<fs large>Axes</fs>**

<WRAP justify>
If you want to start training the Woodcutting Skill, you will need an axe to cut the trees. You can purchase an iron and rune axe from the ::shops teleport. While other metal axes can be obtained from NPC's, doing so is a waste of time for regular players. Ironmen can only purchase a bronze axe from ::shops.

Most Trees can be found in all the same places as they are in OSRS. 

**Note:** You can receive a tree seed while woodcutting. They give the same XP as a log.


**<fs large>Leveling Methods</fs>**

It can be faster XP to continue training at a lower level tree instead of immediately progressing to the next available tree. Sticking to regular trees until hitting 41 for the rune axe will be faster than moving on to Oaks and Willows immediately.
