all you're basically doing is cooking 1 fish over and over again for until you reach 99

 

 

 

boring and almost pointless

 

 

 

95-summer pies does anyone actually make summer pies and use em i think not

 

 

 

You can say that about a lot of skills...you're only burning 1 log over and over again, you're only making one potion over and over again, you're only cutting one log over and over again, you're only mining one ore over and over again...

 

 

 

most of those have a purpose

 

they PROFIT!

 

 

 

firemaking doesnt, cooking doesnt, fletching did now it doesnt,

 

 

 

getting a skill past a certain point is useless

 

 

 

You don't get the point, this is just a game...getting an achievement is still an achievement, no matter if it's pointless or not, EVERYTHING IN THE GAME IS POINTLESS, it's just a game, it's not real life, so nothing in runescape serves an actual purpose.

say that to those real world traders lol

 

 

 

i remember seeing a site where you could trade 1m for $3

 

 

 

at that time i could of had $100 in my paypal account but i didn't

 

 

 

so much spam in this post

It's fitting how you should compare an herblore cape to a party hat in terms of usefulness.

 

 

 

No, i made the compaison between santa hats and party hats. Both serve the same purpose but cost alot difference, hence the respect diference.

 

But you also said this:

 

 

 

cooking is noob 99 anyway get a real one

 

Wow, what a surprise. You have an ignorant, worthless opinion.

 

 

 

There is no real way to break even; best bet would be lobsters/monkfish/sharks or whatever the typical method is all the way.

 

 

 

Ok smart [wagon], explain to me how 99 cooking is useful.

 

If you cook 1 lobster past 99 you go up like 10,000 ranks.

 

 

 

It takes >2 hours to get a fire cape, and that has much more respect than a cooking cape, and better stats also.

 

...Implying that usefulness is your criteria for judging respect, not cost.

 

 

 

A fire cape is cheaper to get than a cooking cape, methinks.

a fire cape IS more useful and is cheaper and gets more respect. its better all ways.

a fire cape IS more useful and is cheaper and gets more respect. its better all ways.

 

 

 

Ok guys, this is going to be a spam post, but it's going to try and quit the rest...Quit talking about partyhats and fire capes, it has nothing to do with the question, so if you want to continue bickering, take it to pms.

a fire cape IS more useful and is cheaper and gets more respect. its better all ways.

 

Wait, are you saying now that respect isn't based on expense OR usefulness?

 

 

 

Look, if you want to defend your view, just get to the point and say exactly why cooking is not a respectable 99 skill. Otherwise, there's no point in arguing--you can just say "I don't like cooking" and be done, fair enough? It's not what the thread is about anyway.

It's the 99 noobs get when they are desperate for a cape. there i have said it. There is a reason why most 99 cookers have 13,035,000 or so xp you know?

43,226 people have 99 cooking

 

around 10,000 from 13,034,000-13,057,000

Lol, whatever, your opinion doesn't matter anymore, since i just found out its all trash.

 

You forgot:

 

90-99 slayer > 8m exp that does nothing.

 

90-99 cooking > 8m exp that actually has an effect on gameplay.

 

 

 

I didn't say the skill was more useful. I said the skillcape was. Level 90 is a looong way from level 99.

 

 

 

It's fitting how you should compare an herblore cape to a party hat in terms of usefulness. :

 

 

 

that 8m exp doing nothing for slayer is actually going to combat xp...

 

 

 

just wanted to point that out

 

 

 

and as far as cooking cape goes i think it would be much more respectable to see a 99 cooking cape coupled with a 99 fishing cape.

My opinion about 99's:

 

 

 

Don't get it 'because everyone has one'.

 

Don't get it because you think it makes you respected. Acting like you're over 13 or something gets you way more respect.

 

It doesn't help you with unlocking things, you're much better off getting all quest requirements or all 50+.

 

If you just want a good cape, get a fire cape.

 

Only get it in 99's you enjoy, it is not worth spending your time on something you don't enjoy.

 

 

 

Note: I don't want to get involved in this pointless discussion. This is just my opinion.

D Jay couldn't have put it any better. Only get capes because you enjoy the skill.

Geez, go make a topic in General Discussion already. You guys added like a page of spam and barely helped the topic creator.

 

 

 

The few people I know who got 99 cook always did a combination of lobs and monkfish, but these are costly, losing as much as 120+gp per fish.

 

 

 

I'd say tuna is your way to go. You're only losing 40some gp per raw. Though it's not the speediest and I don't know how well they sell, everything else seems inefficient since the Culinomancer's chest was nerfed.

Actually, said chest has recently been un-nerfed.

Ok smart [wagon], explain to me how 99 cooking is useful.

 

You're measuring noobiness by how useful the cape is? So I assume you think herblore is an even noobier cape, right? :roll:

 

 

 

If that was your standard, slayer would be a noobier cape than cooking, since the highest slayer you need to kill a monster is 90, but the highest cooking you need for a dish is 95.

 

 

 

I love smart people like you. =D>

 

83 Slayer > Dragon Boots

 

85 Slayer > Abyssal Whip

 

90 Slayer > Dark Bow

 

 

 

99 cooking > congratulations, you still have a 100% chance of continuing to loose money if you train this skill

 

 

 

You dont get the point, nearly all skills max out before level 99.

 

 

 

And please don't compare it to herblore. It's like comparing santa hats and party hats. They both serve the same purpose, yet one is worth alot more.

 

 

 

57 summoning to get a spirit graahk to craft nature runes to get enough money to cook some more!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

 

again, you display your brilliance. Graahk is ineffieicnt until you hit ~ 91 runecrafting

 

No, it's efficient before 91 runecrafting lol.

 

If you make more runes at 91, you'll make them more and on 44 or 75..

 

And with graahk pouches cheap as they are now its even more then efficient.

I'll keep that in consideration. :)

 

I heard that monks can be good profit and XP but I dont know if this is true.

 

Can anyone confirm this?

 

 

 

cooking fish does not profit except for the 2 trawler fish

 

in a way you can profit by cooking heres what you do.

 

you need at least 750k to start of with more is advised and you need to do royal trouble and throne of miscellania put in your 750k+ put all workers on fishing and the rest on coal get 100% aproval rate then wait 1 day claim your stuff add another 75k cook all tuna and swordfish then sell cooked fishes + coal ui still double your money and earn some cooking xp spend profits on more fish. :D :D

That's not right. That way you just make money by doing mtk, then you spend it on cooking by cooking the fish.

 

Not like doing mtk is a bad idea, but :roll: .

I dont know what to cook... But I like cookies : GL with 99 cook :D

yeah but its cheap fish.... :?

Hmm, err, well....

 

 

 

Only 345k shrimp to 99 cooking!

 

 

 

Salmon/trout is fairly cheap.

 

 

 

You could get raws from MTK and cook.

well tbh range cape isnt that great 10000's of people with that and many of them i can 1 hit >_<

 

and don't point out i have no 99's because i prefer to spend my time merchanting

Well, at last you say something halfway thought-out.

I think the best method is to cook trout.

 

There's only a few coins difference in Raw/cooked.

 

 

 

There are 2 cons:

 

You'll need ALOT. Although buying shouldnt be a big problem.

 

They dont sell. Well they do, but it will take very long. It took me 2 weeks to sell few K trout in G.E...

Try cooking trout, it's slow but only a 2 gp loss per fish. The only problem is that the don't sell very well. About 70k xp an hour.

 

 

 

You could also watch market prices carefully and just buy your fish when the prices drop, and cook them while you wait for prices to go back up. If the prices are changing a lot this could be more risky. My friend lost 4 mil more than he expected off of 99 cooking because he bought all his shark and then the G.E. came out and prices droped.

 

 

 

Adding achovies to pizza is slow but you profit quite a bit and then those profits and be used to then buy faster xp from cooking tuna, lobster, etc.
