Protean planks can be won on
Treasure Hunter and are a possible prize from a
shiny clover necklace. They are stackable planks that are usable in place of any other type of
plank.
They cannot be used in
clockwork toys, to upgrade the pig machine under
Falador farm, to build
hidey-holes, nor to repair the ladder to the Death Plateau Beacon in the All Fired Up Mini Game. They
can be used to construct frames for grapevine seeds.
When using a
portable sawmill to create planks, it is possible to receive protean planks instead. As of
24 April 2015,
protean logs can be turned into protean planks at any sawmill at the cost of 5 coins for each plank.
Same as any other protean item, it is used last if other planks are in the inventory.
Join the chat portables, find a portable sawmill, have around 5k logs and run 5k logs through to get about 500 protean planks. Average 500 protean planks an hour doing that with around 200k profit from selling the logs.
Using normal planks is pointless now as you can use protean planks which you get for free and while you're getting them you're earning 200k-300k an hour from selling the normal planks on the G.E
Highly highly recommend using protean planks. IMO it is absolutely pointless and a waste of time and money to use any other method
