Hardest skill to level (most tedious) - Poll -

Don't see what's bad with farming. Put all your stuff into the correct patches, do other [cabbage] for a couple of hours, come back and get your xp then repeat.

 

Ack, runecrafting, agility, mining and hunter bore me tbh.

Dunno if I'm posted on this thread yet, but I would consider agility to be the hardest skill for me to train. I can deal with runecrafting and mining, as both skills can make you money as you train them. Agility is an extreme test of patience and mental fortitude for me.

With rock caverns, Mining is quite bearable. So I'd have to say rc, than prayer. Because gettin that money for Prayer is gonna take a long time.

RC easily. Takes forever for such little exp gains.

Reacting impulsively and saying what's on your mind feels oh so good.. for a little, until you realize you just started WWIII.

Agility and Runecrafting, leveling those via tears, circus, lamps and pengs. I will only train them properly when near a level, which means less over time.

 

Can't wait to get that 400k rewards from WGS.

I've been cleaning herbs and mixing unfinished potions in anticipation of next weekend. I'm saying herblore. Mining up to level 77 is absolute hell, but at rockcaverns it's actually fun. Mining was my most hated skill until I got to mine there.

F2P prayer, F2P runecrafting, F2P mining.

You're not able to afk any one of them, and each is more than 15M clicks for 99. Also, best XP rates are ~30k/hr.

 

 

I'm going to have to go with F2P prayer though, crazy slow, and crazy expensive. At least with RC and mining I'm able to enjoy myself (thank God for GOP for RC, and hulu for mining).

99 dungeoneering achieved, thanks to everyone that celebrated with me!

I used to able to do runecrafting all day when I played full time, but it killed me to get a single mining level. So I would have to say mining.

So I've came to the decision of several skills that i find tedious (boring does not count):

 

- Mining - a lot of clicking involved, mediocre exp, but really good money.

- Runecrafting - slow exp, nice profit, lots of running involved but can be easily restored.

- Firemaking - fast exp, but lots of clicking and lose a lot of cash.

- Prayer - by far the most expensive skill out there, and very click intensive.

- Smithing - difficult to level due to either fast exp but losing a lot of cash, or profit but very slow exp.

- Crafting - good profit and exp, but expensive materials, products are hard to sell, and run energy is easily depleted.

 

I can't really say any one skill is the most tedious since I can deal with all of the above. I'll just say they're all equally hard.

 

Also, the reason why some of my skills are lower is not because I find them tedious, but it's because I don't bother to train them.

Runecrafting, no doubt for me. Mining is ok since concentrated ores were added and slayer is not very fast but just plain fun so yeah.

Slayer is slow, but I love training it, so that takes care of slayer and all combat (except magic). Summoning is fast xp and I never have to worry about charms -- after getting 89 on xp weekend, I don't see the need to level up in increments until I get the charms for 99. So that's out. Mining isn't bad -- superheating concentrated gold gives really good mining, smithing, and magic xp, plus it's fun being in mining golds. Gets rid of those three skills. Crafting and construction are made faster/cheaper by skill-only SC, so those are out even though the cost is high. Herblore and Prayer are too rewarding and too easy to do in small doses to be that bad. Runecrafting is too much money and it's fun trying to go as fast as I possibly can. I actually really enjoy runecrafting via the abyss, so I just mix that up with graahk and ZMI runecrafting for a good balance of money and xp. Cooking is too cheap and fast to really be tedious. Agility and fletching go hand in hand (fletch bolts while running laps), plus it makes a profit. Thieving is ridiculously fast, farming is "set it and forget it". Fishing and woodcutting are really easy to just not pay attention to and still get xp (I sometimes play Guitar Hero while fishing and it barely slows me down).

 

That leaves firemaking and hunter. I actually kind of enjoy training both now, but I'd have to say that Hunter is the more frustrating to me. I know it's really fast and can also be good money at high levels, but it's too difficult to ever get a good spot when hunting chinchompas. All the world hopping and having to deal with other people is what makes it tedious to me.

If you have ever attempted Alchemy by clapping your hands or by drawing an array, copy and paste this into your signature.

I hate Fletching.

 

No, I'm not being a troll.

 

I just really hate fletching.

 

I think it's completely pointless.

 

So yeah, I hate fletching.

 

 

 

And that's my poem on why I hate fletching. I'm expecting a Nobel Prize for this one :thumbsup:
