You can buy all of the skills. Herblore - buying herbs Runecrafting - pay people to run for you Slayer - cannonballs, i went from 62-85 slayer in about 9 days Smithing is one of the original skills, yet it still hasnt acheived more than 700 masters whereas there are 353 99 slayers? When I got 99 smithing in April 2004 I was the 118thish person. That means in the 3-4 years smithing had been out, 118ish people got 99 smithing. Slayer hasnt even been out for 3 years yet and has triple was smithing got in more time. What you say is irrelevant to the topic though. The number of players that have 99 slayer being 3 times the number of players that have 99 smithing for the same time period *does not* prove anything about the speed at which you can train either of those mentioned skills. It only gives a hint or two, like slayer is liked by more, slayer gives better rewards, slayer is more profitable, etc... None of those are facts, but those premises are the ones you can support with what you said, not the speed... I don't think this question has any room for argument, if we are to talk purely about the speed at which a skill can be trained. If anyone thinks that any skill other than "Slayer" is the slowest one to train they: ÃÆââââ‰â¬
