Simple. What is better. Combat or Skilling

 

I say combat as it is never routine, it is completely random what will happen in that battle.

Skilling.

 

 

 

:D

 

 

 

Low-risk, besides randoms, and it's fun to be different :P

Balance may be power, but chaos is still pretty damn fun.

Canada can't be second rate, polar bears are their main mode of transportation.

Skilling.

 

 

 

I will probably go all combat for a while after all 80+ and some other random skill levels though.

Well, I really like skilling but I found the idea of it quite pointless. I only skill for the self-satisfaction of completing goals that I set for myself. With combat, your character becomes better at PVP and PVM after each level you get. So my vote goes for killz.

I say combat as it is never routine, it is completely random what will happen in that battle.

 

But on the flip side, combat is killing over and over. With skilling you get to do new things ;)

 

 

 

I vote skilling, if it isn't obvious ;)

Yes, but with all the major methods to 99 it is exactly the same thing over and over

 

eg: cook 28 sharks then bank -repeat-repeat and that goes on and on and on.

 

combat each battle is different.

 

 

 

anyways

 

3- Skilling

 

2- Combat

 

1- Both

Maybe I'm biased but I still see it as the same concept:

 

 

 

Combat

 

Each battle is slightly different in the sense that you take different equipment for different monsters, have a slightly different approach, etc. But the task if killing is still very repetitive, you just do it in different ways.

 

 

 

Skilling

 

Each skill is slightly different. For cooking you cook fish and then bank over and over again, for crafting you craft armour/jewelry/etc. over and over again, etc. But each skill is slightly different.

 

 

 

So for combat, each "each battle is different" like you said, but for skilling each skill is also different. But in the end, they are both very repetitive in my opinion.

I like both. When I get bored of killing, skilling is a nice change of pace and vice versa.

Im a killer and a skill so hell i can't choose :oops:

X_kaylin_X.png

Im a skiller but I own in combat aswel (and often fight) :P so I cant choose... Both are a part of me.

abydememonsigcomply0.png

i love both skills and love combat too

 

 

 

combat is more interesting but skills are more relaxing

 

 

 

i pick both

StarViv.png
so the score is

 

3 - Skilling

 

2 - Killing

 

2 - Both

 

I think you forgot Zierro.

 

 

 

I like skills more. I could change my mind if I got levels that would allow hunting for the high level bosses. Right now my combat skills aren't really that different from other skills, there is just four or five of them for the same kind of grinding.

combat

 

just coz im one of those arrogant, agressive prepubescent losers who gets off by hurting things and people

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and that was sarcasm

 

but still combat/killz

I'm gonna be walking down an alley in varrock, and walka is going to walk up to me in a trench coat and say "psst.. hey man, wanna buy some sara brew"

walka92- retired with 99 in attack, strength, defence, health, magic, ranged, prayer and herblore and 137 combat. some day i may return to claim 138 combat, but alas, that time has not yet come

I'm torn between the two :(.

 

 

 

I'll have to say both as well.

Skills. It is what makes RS different from other MMORPGs.

Gamertag: EFs Predator.

Games I play: Halo 3, Halo wars.

Skilling, i made most of my cash that way. Im aware theres good money in combat but while skilling its easier to talk to people.
