Fast and easy to level up so it's easy levels. Not really useful for anything

Come to #tip-it on Swift IRC, if you're cool

Thieve in stealing creation is really fun. But money wise I can't think of anything good.

Thieving is useless until you get 99 and can rob the stalls in Ardy (example) for gems etc every like 10 mins lol :o

I dont need a siggy no moar.

Cook, woodcut, fletch, fishing, thieving, herblore, mining, smithing, crafting, firemaking, and hunter are all useless skills - you can make money faster from GWD/Farming/Runecrafting.

Herblore!?

Without these skills so many people would be behind in their works.

 

No dhide?

 

No armour?

 

No chins omfg no wai!!1

 

No ORES to make armour?

No, as in there's no point in raising them. People will make the stuff for you, and you can buy it for cheaper than the supplies + time lost.

By telling people not to raise those levels there will be less stock of the items making them generally harder to get.

 

Except red chins, 'course. Noone stops getting those :roll:

 

 

 

And plus, not every day something comes into the ge.

 

I remember having to wait over 4 hours just to get some super atks and strs.

No, theres way too many skillers. You probably got them when there was a huge demand, as those are always buyable at normal times. When they're not, Irits and Kwuarms are just as hard to buy.

 

 

 

In the end, the above skills have 0 use.

Then I'll say summoning and slayer also have no use cause everything you get from slayer is obtainable by buying the items.

summoning has a massive impact on combat and money making

I doubt anyone gets thieving to 99 for any sort of exponential financial gain. You'll get more money faster, but that's about it. The cape is worth it thought, as it isn't a "buyable" skill and people tend to respect you with insults like "no lifer" and "noob" a lot. Even though your one of the top 4000 players and they can only be jealous.

 

 

 

So get it, what're you waiting for!

 

 

 

[hide=Sorry RayOxide, I had to top the one you did on the other thread.]lol, wait, is this spam? wait, are your spam spam? because that means your spamming about someone spamming that spammed about spam upon the spamming of spamming, but he wouldn't have spammed if the spammer had spammed before the spam, although the spam stemmed from the topic, so technically it isn't spam....[/hide]

I like you bad you confused me and made me think that what people say spamming is isnt spam so thus i dont spam cause it stemmed from the topic into a debate thus not spamming? :lol: 8-)

Slayer is useless in a sense to raise, but Summoning definetely isn't. Crafting and Smithing can't make money as fast as 91 RC/GWD, so they are useless. However, there is the level factor which is why you raise them.

Contradictory. :?

 

 

 

They still arent useless.

 

Just because millions of people train the skill doesnt mean its useless to one person :(

 

You are bagging 2 of my 3 fave skills y'know.

I dont need a siggy no moar.

Not contradictory. I'm saying that they have no true benefit besides the fact that you are raising the levels of that stat.

 

 

 

Useless, see, is for the person to decide. Is total levels/levels really useless? As for the rest such as money, they are useless.

Crafting and smithing arent useless..

 

Thats kinda the end of the 'debate' :?

Okay but how much rune and dragonhide could you buy quickly and cost efficient if nobody trained crafting and smithing...

Love how this topic turned into what skill is the most useless...

 

 

 

I'd say one reason is to keep nubs from pickpocketing you in Stealing Creation :evil:

Yeah sorry. You can use thieving to uh...

 

 

 

Ok thieving sucks.

There will ALWAYS be skillers. It could be a core part of Runescape for some players, but just a trivial pointless aspect to some.

Really the only point in 99 thieving is just practice. It'll help you get a taste of what getting a 99 skill is like if you, for example, wanted to get 99 attack. It would just make it more bearable.
