Cut the two highest level trees available, while avoiding {{ItemIcon|Magic Logs|Magic Trees}} due to their lower XP per hour compared to most of the lower level trees. Make sure to purchase [[Shop#Axe|Axes]] when they become available from the shop. The table below assumes you have the {{UpgradeIcon|Multi-Tree}} upgrade; if you haven't purchased it yet, simply cut the higher level of the two listed logs.

Selling logs is advisable to make it possible to purchase essential upgrades such as [[Shop#Axe|Axes]] or {{UpgradeIcon|Multi-Tree}}, but this might slow down {{Skill|Firemaking}}, so keeping some is recommended. It is also possible to sell the {{ItemIcon|Bird Nest|Bird Nests}} that are produced, which are worth more unopened on average compared to selling the seeds after opening. However, you should consider opening enough for {{Skill|Farming}}. Keep any {{ItemIcon|Strawberry Seeds}} for {{Icon|Gentle Hands Potion|Gentle Hands Potions}}.
Selling logs is advisable to make it possible to purchase essential upgrades such as [[Shop#Axe|Axes]] or {{UpgradeIcon|Multi-Tree}}, but this might slow down {{Skill|Firemaking}}, so keeping some is recommended. To further this goal, {{ItemIcon|Magic Logs|Magic Trees}} are usually worth cutting until {{ItemIcon|Redwood Logs|Redwood Trees}} are unlocked as they are worth a large amount of GP.


==Boosters==
It is also possible to sell the {{ItemIcon|Bird Nest|Bird Nests}} that are produced, which are worth more unopened on average compared to selling the seeds after opening. However, you should consider opening enough for {{Skill|Farming}}.  
Below is an automatically generated list of boosts that will speed up leveling. However, none of the boosts are necessary to reach 99, and can be easily skipped.


===XP===
Seeds worth keeping include:
{{ModifierTable|increasedGlobalSkillXP,increasedSkillXP|XP Boost|false|skill=Woodcutting}}
* {{ItemIcon|Potato Seeds}} for {{Icon|Bird Nest Potion|Bird Nest Potions}}.
* {{ItemIcon|Strawberry Seeds}} for {{Icon|Gentle Hands Potion|Gentle Hands Potions}}.
* {{ItemIcon|Magic Tree Seeds}}, these seeds are quite rare and can turn a healthy profit of GP and XP when used in {{Skill|Farming}}. Very useful for obtaining logs for {{Skill|Firemaking}} without sacrificing Woodcutting exp.


===Action Time===
== Levels 40-99/102: Atlas of Discovery Expansion ==
{{ModifierTable|decreasedSkillIntervalPercent,decreasedSkillInterval|Action Interval|false|skill=Woodcutting}}
To take advantage of the new trees available in the {{AoD}} [[Atlas of Discovery Expansion]], it is necessary to first discover {{POIIcon|Ritual Site}}, which requires {{SkillReq|Cartography|80}}. Players who also have {{TotH}} [[Throne of the Herald Expansion]] should note that the experience rate of {{Icon|Unholy Tree|type=tree}} is superior to {{Icon|Spruce Tree|type=tree}}, and can be substituted in the TotH 99-120 table below. With {{PetIcon|Carthulu}} and {{POIIcon|Terran Dungeon Ruins}} and all other bonuses, {{Icon|Unholy Tree|type=tree}} is superior to {{Icon|Grove Tree|type=tree}} and {{Icon|Elderwood Tree|type=tree}} as well. However, this means that you will not get any {{ItemIcon|Raven Nest}} for all your Woodcutting through 115, so it might not be worth it.

{{AoD}} [[Atlas of Discovery Expansion]] also introduces a few useful items which are acquired from {{Skill|Archaeology}}. {{ItemIcon|Golden Wreath}} provides +4% Non-Combat Skill XP and is relatively easy to acquire. {{ItemIcon|Candelabra (Lit)}} provides -3% Non-Combat Skill Interval and +4% Non-Combat Skill XP, but acquiring it is slow enough to potentially not be worth it. A good rule of thumb is that if the tree's duration is longer than 15s, {{ItemIcon|Candelabra (Lit)}} probably is worth it; especially since you do not use them that quickly with slow duration trees.
 
== Levels 99-120: Throne of the Herald Expansion ==
With added content from the {{TotH}} [[Throne of the Herald Expansion]], {{Skill|Woodcutting}} becomes more complex for obtaining optimal XP rates. As always, make sure to purchase [[Shop#Axe|Axes]] when they become available from the shop, there are new Axes for level 100+ content that are required for cutting trees of a certain level.
 
Maximizing the amount of interval reduction is key! Due to the way these modifiers stack '''additively''',  missing even a few can be a major hindrance in the amount of experience earned over time. For example, {{ItemIcon|Redwood Logs|Redwood Trees}} with all other available bonuses can go from 989k XP/h to 3,758k XP/h simply by adding {{Skill|Agility|Stepping Stones}}.
 
XP rates will vary drastically based on the player's mastery level in each tree and how many relevant bonuses they are using. As usual, always make use of {{UpgradeIcon|Multi-Tree}}. The following table will try to provide an approximate guide using most of the available buffs, though the player should always check for themselves or use a mod like ETA to be sure:

Since the player will be spending a lot of time on the same logs, and due to {{UpgradeIcon|Multi-Tree}} and the generally very high XP rates available in {{Skill|Woodcutting}} with the appropriate buffs, it is very likely the player will complete [[Mastery]] on multiple Trees while leveling. It is therefore advised to work start cutting a different tree even if it is a skill XP loss, the time gained in [[Mastery]] completion will be more useful overall.
 
{{ItemIcon|Raven Nest|Raven Nests}} are a great way to unlock {{TotH}} seeds for {{Skill|Farming}} and also include fragments for the {{ItemIcon|Meteorite Woodcutting Amulet}} and {{ItemIcon|Meteorite Woodcutting Ring}}, which also provide {{Skill|Firemaking}} XP equal to 10% of the {{Skill|Woodcutting}} XP the player earns. {{ItemIcon|Raven Nest|Raven Nests}} only drop while cutting at least one Tree that has a level requirement of 100 or greater.
 
== Levels 1-99/120: Ancient Relics Mode ==
For {{Icon|Ancient Relics}} players, {{ItemIcon|Woodcutting Lesser Relic}} is dropped while training {{Skill|Woodcutting}}, and provides -5% Woodcutting Interval. There are also many extremely useful bonuses from unlocking Ancient Relics while training. Namely, the Woodcutting Master Relics which grants an addition +1 Tree Cut Limit. Combined with {{UpgradeIcon|Multi-Tree}}, the player could cut three trees at once. The table below shows theoretical XP rates with the Woodcutting Master Relic already unlocked.
