Requirements
Mandatory and recommended are kept separate
Hard requirements
Consumed for each blasted section.
Used to place and ignite charges in the current method.
Recommended
Unlocks runite ore in the reward mix.
Supports constant movement around the wall circuit.
Useful when the selected circuit drains run energy.
Keeps detonations separated and avoids damage.
Improves the reward mix as levels rise.
Location and access

Method
A repeatable practical cycle
Start with a manageable wall pattern rather than copying a maximum-efficiency loop immediately.
Use dynamite on the wall, ignite it and move outside the blast radius.
Return after detonation and collect the loose ore before it disappears.
Deliver the collected material and value the ore mix for your Mining level.
Move toward 330 dynamite/hr only after the timing is consistent.
XP vs profit
What changes the tradeoff
Each dynamite in the Wiki method represents about 260 Mining XP and 50 Firemaking XP. Reward quality scales with Mining level, with runite available from 75.
Profitability
Wiki reference plus your assumptions
Expected profit depends on market prices, pace and the Wiki method assumptions.
Missing assumptions are not treated as zero.
Common mistakes
Method-specific checks
Standing inside the blast radius
Placing more charges than the collection route can handle
Using runite-heavy profit below 75 Mining
Ignoring dynamite cost
Useful upgrades
Improvements that affect this method
Adds runite ore to the possible reward mix.
Raises dynamite throughput once timing is safe.
Keeps the movement loop consistent.
