Overall farming {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}} consumes roughly 1035 {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}}, 1035 {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}}, 2070 {{ItemIcon|Light Rune}} per hour. Over the 2.9 days it takes to farm {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}}, expect to consume 67.3k {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}}, 67.3k {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}} and 134.6k {{ItemIcon|Light Rune}}. The latter is abundantly obtained from standard resupplies, but the two former must be obtained manually.  
Overall farming {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}} consumes roughly 1000 {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}}, 1000 {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}}, 2000 {{ItemIcon|Light Rune}} per hour. Over the 3 days it takes to farm {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}}, expect to consume 67.5k {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}}, 67.5k {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}} and 135k {{ItemIcon|Light Rune}}. The latter is abundantly obtained from standard resupplies, but the two former must be obtained manually.  


The following setup is generally recommended for farming.  
The following two setups are recommended for farming runes. The advantage of the melee setup is there are no supply usage costs, while the ranged setup is more kills/hr if one has an abundance of knives handy.

Opting for Ragnar over Master Slayer is perfectly viable (for example, this setup leads to 740 {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}}/hr instead of 800). However, over the 115 hours spent farming runes, the time saved (about 9-10 hours) is quite considerable. With {{ItemIcon|Ragnar Godsword}}, full Ragnar, {{ItemIcon|Hunter's Ring}} and {{ItemIcon|Prayer Skillcape}} one earns around 65k slayer coins per hour doing elite slayer while spending only 6.5k prayer points. This means the 9-10 hours saved contributes around 500k slayer coins (minus points spent on resupplies to replenish prayer) towards the 2m total coin cost of the melee master slayer set. Master slayer is also required for the next stage of the game which is farming {{ZoneIcon|Unhallowed Wasteland}}, so this is the best time to obtain it.
* The best option for obtaining {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}} is {{MonsterIcon|Wizard}}. With the previous gear setup, one can expect to obtain about 800 {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}}/hr using melee and almost 1000 {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}} with ranged. The ranged setup will consume about 1000 {{ItemIcon|Ancient Throwing Knife}} per hour, so it essentially trades {{ItemIcon|Ancient Throwing Knife}} for {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}} 1:1. Lower tier knives are perfectly viable, as even {{ItemIcon|Bronze Throwing Knife}} is still better than the melee setup (around 840 {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}}/hr in the worst case scenario). A {{ItemIcon|Ranged Skillcape}} is also worth considering, as this drops the knife usage to around 650/hr, or down to around 400/hr if {{ItemIcon|Throwing Power Gloves}} are swapped for {{ItemIcon|Aeris God Gloves}}. This will cut the kills/hr by a noticeable amount. It should take about 70-85 hours to obtain all the {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}} necessary, depending on the method used.


* The best option for obtaining {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}} is {{MonsterIcon|Wizard}}. With the previous gear setup, one can expect to obtain about 800 {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}}/hr. Aeris with knives is faster kills/hr but requires ammo. It should take about 85 hours to obtain all the {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}} necessary.
* For collecting mind runes, the best option is {{MonsterIcon|Master Wizard}}. Luckily this will be a lot faster, obtaining about 2150 {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}}/hr with melee and about 2675 {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}}/hr with ranged. Similar ammo saving considerations can be made as above when farming {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}}. While collecting the 67.5k {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}}, you will also snag 27k {{ItemIcon|Chaos Rune}}, 8k {{ItemIcon|Death Rune}} and 4000 {{ItemIcon|Amulet of Magic}} for your second, third and 40th {{ItemIcon|Fury of the Elemental Zodiacs}}. This will be much faster than {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}}, clocking in around 30 hours to collect all the necessary {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}}. The {{ItemIcon|Chaos Rune}} when used on {{MonsterIcon|Raging Horned Elite}} should give about 2.3m magic exp and the {{ItemIcon|Death Rune}} around 910k. If starting the T90 grind without having {{Skill|Magic|90}} required to equip {{ItemIcon|Ocean Song}} then one should start the rune farming grind with {{MonsterIcon|Master Wizard}} and use the higher tier catalytic runes to level their magic.


* For collecting mind runes, the best option is {{MonsterIcon|Master Wizard}}. Luckily this will be a lot faster, obtaining about 2165 {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}}/hr. While collecting the 67.3k {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}}, you will also snag 27k {{ItemIcon|Chaos Rune}}, 8k {{ItemIcon|Death Rune}} and 4035 {{ItemIcon|Amulet of Magic}} for your second, third and 40th {{ItemIcon|Fury of the Elemental Zodiacs}}. This will be much faster than {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}}, clocking in around 30 hours to collect all the necessary {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}}. The {{ItemIcon|Chaos Rune}} when used on {{MonsterIcon|Raging Horned Elite}} should give about 2.3m magic exp and the {{ItemIcon|Death Rune}} around 910k.
* Opting for Ragnar (or Aeris) over Master Slayer is perfectly viable (A Ragnar setup nets about 740 {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}}/hr instead of 800). However, over the 115 hours spent farming runes, the time saved (about 9-10 hours) is quite considerable. With {{ItemIcon|Ragnar Godsword}}, full Ragnar, {{ItemIcon|Hunter's Ring}} and {{ItemIcon|Prayer Skillcape}} one earns around 65k slayer coins per hour doing elite slayer while spending only 6.5k prayer points. This means the 9-10 hours saved contributes around 500k slayer coins (minus points spent on resupplies to replenish prayer) towards the 2m total coin cost of the melee master slayer set. Master slayer is also required for the next stage of the game which is farming {{ZoneIcon|Unhallowed Wasteland}}, so this is the best time to obtain it.


* Combined, the total grind will be about 70 hours farming {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}}, 85 hours for {{ItemIcon|Air Rune}} and 30 hours for {{ItemIcon|Mind Rune}} totalling 185 hours. This is on par with the previous two items combined, which is fitting as it is the most useful for a CO-account with limited resources.

* The player will easily get from 90-99 magic while farming {{MonsterIcon|Umbora}}. Expect around 200k magic xp/hr, which ends up around 14m after {{ItemIcon|Tidal Edge}} is obtained.
