Woodcutting

Woodcutting is used to gather logs which are used in Firemaking and Fletching. Each Woodcutting action has a 0.5% chance to obtain a Bird Nest. This chance can be increased by using Bird Nest Potions and Clue Chaser's Insignia. Raising Woodcutting to Level 99 will unlock the Woodcutting Skillcape for purchase from the Shop. Equipping the Woodcutting Skillcape reduces the time required to cut logs by 15% of the base cut time.

This article is about the Woodcutting skill. For training the skill, see Woodcutting/Training.
