Bird Nest/Guide
This page was last updated for (v1.2.1). |
Uses for Bird Nests
Bird Nests are the best source of many important seeds for different parts of the game:
Potato Seeds: used to create
Bird Nest Potion
Strawberry Seeds: used to create
Gentle Hands Potion
Carrot Seeds and
Magic Tree Seeds: used for two Very Hard difficulty
Township Tasks (here)
There is also an Elite Difficulty Township Task that requires 1,000k (one million)
Bird Nests.
Magic Tree Seeds have a 1/1,010 drop rate from
Bird Nests and the player needs 300, meaning 303,000
Bird Nests must be opened if the player has no other seeds.
Carrot Seeds have a 9/1,010 drop rate from
Bird Nests and the player needs 5,000, meaning 561,111
Bird Nests must be opened if the player has no other seeds.
These statements combined mean that if the player is to complete all of the required township Tasks while starting from nothing, approximately 1,561k Bird Nests must be acquired. Bird nests are a particularly volatile resource, under normal circumstances it may seem impossible to collect enough in a reasonable time frame, but this guide will explain the best ways to focus on getting these items to make the grind as painless as possible.

Chopping Logs With Bird Nests Potions
Requirements
Please note: Although the minimum requirements are low, using Bird Nest Potion IV and minimum action time are advised or else the acquisition rate drops dramatically.
Method
Cut Normal Logs to obtain
Bird Nests, as these have the fastest default cut time. The goal is to perform actions at the minimum interval allowed by the game, 0.25 seconds, or 4 actions per second.
Note: If any trees of a higher level can be cut at 0.25s, feel free to cut those in addition or instead of the Normal Logs. Do not cut any other logs unless you need them for some other goal as doing so can significantly increase the action time, which decreases the amount of Bird Nests gained over time.
Selling any excess logs and Bird Nests for profit is a decent Money Making strategy.
A portion of the nests can be opened for Potato Seeds to make more potions if required.
How to Achieve Min Interval (0.25s)
The primary difficulty in maximizing bird nest farming is reducing interval as much as possible. Several methods are listed below
Max Base Game
- 0.52s interval cutting only normal logs with
Dragon Axe,
Master of Nature,
Woodcutting Skillcape,
Stepping Stones, and 99 mastery.
- 0.25s interval cutting only normal logs with
