Poll: Hardest Skill to Level up?

[Japlin Chev]

I find mining so slow, but herblore can be sometimes as well....

[Kevin_]

Mining and Slayer.

[Kaiser1993]

Thats an easy one..... Runecrafting. I hate it, it's just so slow to level up. :ohnoes:

[mr_tiddles]

Pffft, Mining is easy... (If you hit 99 about 3 years ago)

 

 

 

I think those people who forget that runecrafting can be raised fast simply by joining one of those goofy companies and then you have tons of help to raise it, so I disagree with that skill being the hardest.

 

 

 

I'm gonna say Slayer or Summoning. (Opps not out yet ;) )

[atestarossa]

this really depends on how you look at things... if you find slowest, then i would say slayer... but still.... slayer is a multi-task skill, and hardly any repetive as you get new assigments all the time...

 

 

 

so my vote is for farming... i find it slow to train up, as i never get the hang of the farming routes : /

[Winner5555]

slayer, runecrafting comes in a close second, but even though you can use a cannon in slayer, with runecrafting you could get more xp from being a law or nat crafter who has tons of people running for you.

[Dazzuh]

I would say RuneCrafting.

[THEDEEPPKER]

farming

[Voldmort0]

I vote Slayer.

[Plod2]

Prayer, agility, herby.

[Outsanity]

I think I'm going to say Mining. I LOATHE the skill with a passion. It's slow, tedious, monotonous, and a poor money maker...even with Rune mining.

 

 

 

Skills like Slayer and Runecrafting are slow, yes...but at least they're rewarding.

[Blingkachi50]

I'd say the hardest is slayer but i love slayer so its nvr boring for me so then that brings it to rc and smithing

 

 

 

im gona go with rc i think since altars r so far from bank

[goldbaloney]

Id probably go for construction or farming. Slayer an rc are close seconds.

 

 

 

Agility isnt slow, its extremely boring, dunno how i got it to 70 and now im going for 99.

 

 

 

*groans*

[wild_goat_14]

Definitely Cooking or Fletching.

 

 

 

Didn't you know? People get 99's in those skills for the hard work required and great achievement achieved, not the glory.

 

 

 

Oh, wait...

 

Some people actually do, and i happen to be one of them. I know lots of people just do them for the cape, but please... don't pin that on us all. I get enough of that in-game

 

 

 

And either RC or slayer is hardest, depends on the rest of your stats really.

[Golvellius]

Herblore for me.

 

#2 is "making gp". :XD:

[speedofsound]

I'd actually say farming. Farming is a long and tediouse task and the levels don't come easy. It's not my cuppa' tea, Thats for sure.

[jmr011]

Runecrafting and herblore, slayer is easy too rise if you take time into it.

[mpg321]

Mining, but i guess slayer is harder in some ways but alot more enjoyable.

[Tehdoomedguy]

Well slayer is actually easy at the beginning but since its slow exp in the end its a total witch to raise. Ive watched my dad do it and hes not even to 85 yet but very close hes done hundreds of assignments and Is one of the best slayer people on runescape... his rank is pretty high. anyways as for runecrafting its slow the entire way through so good money maker hard to level unless you have the money and time to get 1000s of talismans and do tiaras. than thats alot quicker but mind numbingly hard to do even with the increased exp per tiara/talisman.

 

 

 

Now for people saying farming is hard... it isnt. Its actually well easier than you think just might cost you. All you need is to get to a lvl where you can plant trees. Checking them yields loads more exp other than the 4+ 10 per thing you grow scheme. Hard thing is is finding tree seeds. so to buy em might cost you your dds's but gold is easily obtainable. so dont say farming is hard, slow yes at points but its not hard you watch stuff grow what so hard about that?

 

 

 

anyways Ill saying mining its slow and yeilds nothing cept for smithing lvls which are slower than mining all the ore in the first place but yields more money if your high enough. anyways yeah mining has my vote

[BBC3]

I think I'm going to say Mining. I LOATHE the skill with a passion. It's slow, tedious, monotonous, and a poor money maker...even with Rune mining.

top 2 money makers?

 

2nd = mining

 

1st = 91 rc

 

 

 

slayer isnt great anymore, low drop rate of whips

 

barrows is based off of luck

 

 

 

two of my friends CURRENTLY are mining 500 rune ores a day

 

one of them already maxed 1200 ores in 24 hours, dont even give me that garbage 8-)

 

 

 

mining is still the hardest skill in the game by far

 

rc = runners ftw? and easy money?

 

slayer = not boring and easy money?

 

what do you get for training mining? 268k iron ores dropped on the ground FROM lvl 86 mining to 99.

 

 

 

mining wins this vote tbhimo

[silver24-7]

I'm voting mining btw, whoever gets to 99 in mining has to be really really bored :S

[bpk_wolfen]

slayer!

[compfreak847]

Slayer is the hardest/slowest by far. As the proud crafter of over 50k nats, I find runecrafting very simple to level, and not at all tedious. Although, I find crafting the most annoying....

[Sebasdesebas]

I have to give my vote the name of RuneCrafting. Even though it is by far NOT my lowest skill, I just put more time in it than say Herblore.

[darkjab]

Mining.

 

 

 

I hit 67 I think 4 years ago and i've only progressed 2 levels to date. During RSC it was bearable because even with fatigue you could quite easily make 200k for about 2 hours work mining coal at lumbridge swamp :P but now urghh the thought of just having to equip a pickaxe makes me sick.
