Lumberjack outfit

From Old School RuneScape Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The lumberjack outfit is an experience-boosting clothing set that grants additional experience when worn whilst Woodcutting. Equipping any piece of the outfit requires 44 (not boostable) Woodcutting.

Each piece equipped increases Woodcutting experience by 0.2–0.8% depending on the piece; wearing the complete set grants an additional set bonus of 0.5%, resulting in a total of 2.5% for the entire set. This stacks with the bonus 10% experience when cutting maples from the Kandarin Diary medium reward, as well as the bonus 10% experience when using a felling axe with Forester's rations in the player's Forestry kit. Pieces of the Forestry outfit will act as lumberjack pieces to obtain the set bonus.

The entire lumberjack outfit can be stored in the armour case of the costume room of a player-owned house.

Obtaining[edit | edit source]

Forestry Shop[edit | edit source]

The Lumberjack outfit pieces can be purchased from the Forestry Shop. Each piece costs a certain amount of anima-infused bark and noted logs:

Item XP Bonus Anima-infused Bark Logs (Forestry Shop)
Lumberjack hat 0.4% 1200 200 yew logs, 100 magic logs
Lumberjack top 0.8% 1500 60 yew logs, 120 magic logs, 120 redwood logs
Lumberjack legs 0.6% 1300 160 yew logs, 140 magic logs
Lumberjack boots 0.2% 1000 100 maple logs, 200 yew logs
Sub-total 2% 5000 100 maple logs, 620 yew logs, 360 magic logs, 120 redwood logs
Set bonus 0.5%
Full set 2.5%

The set costs 5,000 Anima-infused bark, 100 maple logs, 620 yew logs, 360 magic logs, and 120 redwood logs in total.

Using the formula XP Bonus / # of Anima-infused bark, the most efficient order is: Top (0.0005333), Legs (0.0004615), Hat (0.0003333), then Boots (0.0002).

This method is considerably slower than simply obtaining the pieces from Temple Trekking.

Temple Trekking[edit | edit source]

The quickest way to obtain the lumberjack outfit's pieces is from the Temple Trekking minigame. In one of the minigame's randomized events, the player is tasked with repairing a bridge and must kill undead lumberjacks to obtain planks. The undead lumberjacks in this event all have a 25% chance to drop a piece of the lumberjack outfit, with a limit of one piece of the outfit per event.

As long as the bridge is not fully rebuilt and the dropped planks are not picked up, lumberjacks will continue to spawn and the player can continue to kill them until they receive a piece of the outfit. Players can also repair and cross the bridge, then cross back to cause more lumberjacks to spawn.

It should be noted that there is a similar Temple Trekking random event involving repairing a bridge, but with trees on the map. The undead lumberjacks that spawn in this event do not drop pieces of the lumberjack outfit. The simplest way to differentiate between the two bridge events is that the event that CAN drop clothing will have 0 trees; the event that cannot drop clothing will have trees.

The fastest way to obtain the lumberjack outfit is to take any person through Route One. This lets the player skip past most combat events by taking the evade-event path. The mage by the River Salve or Dalcian in Burgh de Rott are good choices. If a longer non-combat event is encountered, simply teleport out of the minigame and start a new round. The closest teleports to Burgh de Rott are the Morytania legs 3 and 4, and the closest teleports to the River Salve starting point are the slayer ring, Kharyrll Teleport, Salve Graveyard Teleport (or tablet), and the CKS fairy ring.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • The examine text for the clothes reads, "You'll certainly be alright wearing these", referring to The Lumberjack Song in the British comedy sketch television show Monty Python's Flying Circus.
  • When players examine lumberjack zombies, it will say "He's the one, but he's not alright" which is another reference to Monty Python's "Lumberjack song".
  • Before the release of Forestry, the only way to obtain the lumberjack outfit was Temple Trekking.
