OSRS Herblore Calculator
Herblore is fast, profitable, and almost entirely AFK — you click herb, click secondary, repeat. You work up through the potion tiers as your level allows: prayer potions, super energies and super strengths, then super restores, Saradomin brews and super combat potions at the top. Most of the cost is in the herbs and secondaries, many of which ironmen farm themselves.

Herblore is gated by your herb and secondary supply more than by gp — ironmen run herb farms to feed it; mains buy the ingredients off the GE.

Herblore calculator — FAQ
What's the fastest way to train Herblore in OSRS?
Making the highest-tier potions you can supply — Saradomin brews and super combat potions reach around 320k–440k XP/hr. Herblore is one of the quickest skills once you can afford the ingredients, since making a potion is near-instant.
Is Herblore expensive?
It can be, since you buy herbs and secondaries in bulk, but some potions turn a profit. The calculator above shows the live GE cost per method so you can pick a tier that balances XP rate against gold.
How do ironmen train Herblore?
Ironmen feed Herblore from their own herb runs (Farming) and gathered secondaries like snape grass and red spiders' eggs. That makes supply, not gold, the real bottleneck, so most ironmen train Herblore in bursts as their ingredients build up.
