Overview
When initially purchasing a player-owned house in the Demonic Pacts League, it will be located in Aldarin. This house portal is the only one available in the starting region. The Brimhaven house portal will also become available to all players once they unlock Karamja. Your POH can only be moved to regions that have been unlocked.
Basic Construction training can be done similarly to in the main game. A sawmill can be found in Auburnvale for making planks and a stonemason store can be found at Stonecutter Outpost that provides limestone bricks, gold leaves and magic stones. While sawmills exist in other regions ( and
), Auburnvale is the fastest to and from the sawmill and bank. A second stonemason can be found in
and is closer to a bank.
It is not recommended to train Construction early on, as it requires a large investment and is not time efficient. The inability to convert between noted and actual items significantly hampers training, further compounded by the fact that many house portals are very far from a bank. It is instead recommended to train Construction once the maximum multiplier is reached to save time.
For players with large amounts of money, but who did not pick (servants) or
(Phials) to un-note items, it is recommended to construct elemental balances; specifically, the Greater magical balance, which requires 2,000 each of air, water, earth and fire runes, all of which are stackable.
has good sources of planks (oak planks from Cal'varion/Vet'ion, teak planks from the Corporeal Beast, mahogany planks from revenants and mahogany logs from Artio/Callisto, however these require significant combat investment.
Chambers of Xeric can offer even more teak and mahogany planks, however these are much longer compared to Wilderness and have even higher combat investments.
If going for the 50 million experience task from base, the player would need the following as soon as they are unlocked and assuming the maximum 16x multiplier is unlocked:
- Greater magical balance - players would need 396,000,000 coins, assuming the rune packs are bought from a rune store such as the Tal Teklan Rune Shop. Since coins can be rather hard to acquire without
Abundance (Demonic Pacts League), players can lower the cost by using tokkul as a substitute. This would require at least karamja gloves 1 for the better sell price and selling large numbers of runes or ores to their respective TzHaar stores. Large amounts of ore can be acquired from stealing the Mor Ul Rek ore stall and reselling the ore back to TzHaar-Hur-Rin. Once all the runes are purchased, it will take around 8-10 hours to get the necessary experience, depending on how attentive the player is.
- Mahogany table - players will need around ~35 million coins in order to create the necessary ~3,666 tables needed. If planning to use exclusively this method, the player will need
Transmute since chopping 22,000 mahogany logs is not time-efficient. The player must then convert all of these into mahogany planks, costing 1,500 coins each. If
Butler's Bell were to be used instead, it would take 1 month (to the day, on average) to acquire the necessary Mahogany planks, although other planks obtained from this might speed up the process, at the cost of more time actively spent, and if collecting logs, it would take ~15 days, at the cost of coins, runs to the sawmill, and plenty of auto Fletching XP. Players who have Butler's Bell for other reasons can still gain a substantial portion of the required XP with this method (approximately [days spent on planks (or logs*2)]*50000/3 XP). To quickly bank, it is encouraged to have a quick one-click teleport (such as an evil eye or Banker's briefcase), wield a dust battlestaff (to cover both air and earth runes), and a stack of law runes in their inventory, which leaves 24 spots and allows the player to make four tables per inventory. After building the tables, teleport out to the bank, then back to the house and repeat. With good focus, this method will take around 7-8 hours to reach the necessary experience.
Other training methods require additional region unlocks, such as Mahogany Homes . Players will only be assigned Mahogany Homes contracts that can be completed in their unlocked regions. If planning to unlock multiple regions with Mahogany Homes contracts, it is recommended to focus on Mahogany Homes before unlocking additional regions, as only having homes in one region will noticeably speed up contracts. Players with access to the Lunar spellbook via
,
(Spellbook change with a Magic cape), or
Grimoire can additionally use Astral Contact to further speed up contracts.
Construction is affected by the following relics:
Butler's Bell allows the player to summon a demon butler who can perform various tasks for them, including chopping logs and turning them into planks (5 per minute), even when offline. This can be a passive method of collecting/processing planks and also gives Fletching XP (10 XP per resource)
Transmute allows the player to transmute logs into other types of logs, allowing for acquiring other types of logs needed to make planks for training Construction.
