Profit (per cast) = high alch value − GE price − nature rune price. GE price is the midpoint of the current instant-buy/instant-sell, falling back to the 24h volume-weighted average for illiquid items. This ranks a fixed top-2,000 leaderboard by margin at crawl time — editing the nature rune price re-sorts within that set, it doesn't pull in items that fell outside the top 2,000. Click any row to see its profit history. Item icons are cached from the OSRS Wiki, not hotlinked.

How this works

OSRS Alch crawls the OSRS Wiki's real-time price API on our own schedule — four bulk requests every 15 minutes — and keeps a local database of the top 2,000 items by alch margin, plus real Grand Exchange price history per item so you can see how profit has moved over time, compared against the nature rune price. Nothing here ever calls the wiki from your browser: the site reads a small generated snapshot, so pages load instantly and never rate-limit.

Frequently asked questions

What is High Level Alchemy?

High Level Alchemy is a Magic spell (55 Magic, members) that converts an item into coins — the amount is that item's fixed high alch value, regardless of what you actually paid for it on the Grand Exchange. It costs one Nature rune and a chunk of your Magic bar per cast.

How is high alch profit calculated?

Profit per cast = the item's high alch value, minus what it costs on the Grand Exchange, minus the price of a Nature rune. If that number is positive, the item is worth alching; if it's negative, you'd lose money casting High Level Alchemy on it.

How often does OSRS Alch update its prices?

Every 15 minutes. OSRS Alch crawls the OSRS Wiki's real-time Grand Exchange price API on its own schedule and republishes the top 2,000 items ranked by alch profit — your browser never queries the wiki directly.

What's the best item to high alch right now?

It changes constantly as Grand Exchange prices move — that's the whole point of this leaderboard. Sort by Profit to see the current highest profit-per-cast item, or use the Bulk Alching preset for items with high buy limits if you want to alch a lot of one item in a single session.

Does high alch profit account for the Grand Exchange tax?

No — you buy the item to alch it, you don't sell it, so the Grand Exchange's 2% sell tax never applies to alching. Profit here is purely high alch value minus purchase price minus the Nature rune.
