The most Useless skill?

Featured Replies

The title says it all what do you think is the most useless skill?

 

 

 

-I say Fire Making

? - ?????? ? ????????? ? ????? ?? ???? ??????????, ????????? ????? ??????????? ??, ? ?????? ?????, ?????? ??? ??? - ????? ?.

But without firemaking how will the beacons be lit to warn people of any Mahjarrat invasion?

I must say:

 

 

 

1. FireMaking No use at all

 

2. Farming Other than farming herbs everything else is useless and plants die.

 

3. Fletching Needs to do other things than make arrows bolts and bows

 

4. Crafting If you don't make your own tele jewlery you could get away without this easily.

Saying farming is useless is outrageous in my opinion.

 

 

 

Fletching and firemaking are the only candidates for this in my opinion. I'm not sure if you can buy bolts from NPCs though (particularly broad bolts), so if not, then fletching definitely is better. Firemaking isn't useless either, although I haven't been lighting a lot of fires lately, it can come in useful every once in a while, not to mention it is required for things like bullseye lanterns.

You're being watched.

Hunter/Firemaking - Probably FM only because Hunter has chinchompas.

Firemaking...apart from beacons and shade burning, what's the point?

Unfortunately, Firemaking needs more features.

Unfortunately, Firemaking needs more features.

 

what more could you give it? making fires by snapping your fingers?

 

 

 

firemaking is a useless skill, no competition.

1. Firemaking. Yeah, you can burn... logs..., perhaps light some objects. Beacon lighting = desperate attempt to make a useless skill give some rewards.

 

2. Slayer. I say, you slay....... And you get xp, for what? It's NOT an army, it's an adventure game. Smoking kills, point system = desperate attempt to make a useless skill give some rewards.

 

 

 

Other skills are quite well thought out... Have their uses.

Firemaking obviously has the least uses, but it still has a use.

Nemo vir est qui mundum non reddat meliorem..

None of the skills are truly useless and each skill will appeal to different types of people/players.

Def firemaking. Slayer is fun but pretty useless.

I piety the fool.

None. If firemaking was used to make fires, it makes fires, so what more do you want? Go set a house on fire? That sounds great. Set other people's POH on fire and let them ear another 50M+ to build it again :roll:

 

 

 

Honestly, a skill doesn't need any special features to make it useful. If you can burn a log, then you can burn a log. A useless skill is carpentry from rsc, which had no use at all. THAT skill was useless :P

Firemaking then smithing.

Firemaking has no need to be a skill, as all it does is...make...fires. Fires are used for cooking, right? Plenty of ranges for that.

 

 

 

Then I'd have to say Slayer, it could just be because I'm f2p, but I never got the point of it. Yay. You killed a certain number of something...

For everyone saying slayer, without slayer we wouldn't have a variety of weapons only dropped by slayer monsters. So its pretty useful along with crafting which is needed for dhide armour. Anyways there really isnt any useless skill they all served a purpose at some point or another.

Thieving is quite useless, apart from quests that require it.

Thanks to Uno for the awsome sig <3

Firemaking. Sure in story it is useful but not in reality.

In fact, I do have some pancake mix.

Firemaking, self explainable.

Since I'm an F2Per, Firemaking would probably be the most useless skill.

 

 

 

In P2P however it does have some use. (Beacon Network anybody?)

I think construction is a useless skill. I don't hate it, its just that you spend so much money on it and only the people you invite to your house can see it. Don't get me wrong, I love the menagerie for my pets. But other than that, there is really no use for it.
