Vulxai Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 [hide=Old List]EDIT: Bottom of Page 9 shows monthly growth percentage of each skill. So I decided to go on my own little scavenger hunt on the hi-scores to find and organize the skills and see which one is the rarest. These numbers have probably already changed, but the order is more than likely still the same. EDIT: For the top ten, it's in this format:#. SKILL - Nov 1 - Dec 51. Runecrafting 2,671 - 2,8152. Construction 3,181 - 3,511 (Con is now number 3)3. Herblore 3,235 - 3,474 (Herb is now number 2)4. Summoning 3,423 - 3,7765. Mining 3,741 - 4,2536. Agility 4,061 - 4,3577. Farming 5,208 - 5,5778. Smithing 5,654 - 5,9409. Slayer 6,114 - 6,53010. Crafting 7,515 - 7,930 11. Thieving 11,17712. Hunter 11,27413. Prayer 12,75314. Fishing 21,58715. Firemaking 32,04716. Magic 40,32117.

Youmu Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Wow, I didn't expect Runecrafting to be THAT rare... Seeing Runecrafting is F2P, I am surprised. :o inb4noobstr/cook/fletch BlogTrimmed | Master Quester | Final BossBoss pets: Bombi | Shrimpy | Ellie | Tz-Rek Jad | Karil the Bobbled | Mega Ducklings120s: Dungeoneering | Invention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
testingsomestuff123 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Lolling at Strength, Fletch, and Cook. How many do you think are untrimmed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
microtosh Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 didn't think crafting would be rarer than thieving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulxai Posted November 1, 2009 Author Share Posted November 1, 2009 Lolling at Strength, Fletch, and Cook. How many do you think are untrimmed? Including mine? Lol, I'd actually assume somewhat of a lower number, since a lot of people get 99 cook just to trim another cape. ~ Proud Father ~ Proud (Currently Deployed) Army National Guardsmen ~ Proud Lakota ~ Retired Tip.It Crew ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mario_sunny Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 I wasn't surprised with Slayer. So many people have gotten 99 slayer compared with the other skillcapes nowadays, it isn't even in the top 5 anymore. By popular demand, this signature is back- however I currently do not have a blog up at the moment and if I did I wouldn't update it. Sorry, the sig links to nowhere :( .

Range_This11 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 I'm surprised 99 Magic is so common. Honestly.

acenator Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 I was somewhat surprised by slayer at first, but then thought about it and it makes sense. Slayer's a good money maker and makes training combat skills funner. I was somewhat surprised thieving wasn't more popular, but it is pretty boring to train. I also have a hard time believing so many people have 99 firemaking considering how boring of a skill it is and the fact that it kills wrists (it does mine, anyways... Maybe I should have that checked by a doctor... :-k). Other than those, there isn't anything on there than can't be explained with a logical examination of the average 'scaper's attitude and whatnot. > SELECT * FROM users WHERE clue > 0;0 rows returnedThere's no place like 127.0.0.1There are only 10 types of peoplein this world: those who understandbinary and those who don't.This statement is false.$DO || ! $DO ; trytry: command not found Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lagatag Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 I'm not really surprised at all. The less afk-able/more expensive/slower to train are the rarer 99's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gigatiran Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Pretty much what I expected, except I thought thieving would be more as it's fast and free. Sleep on...fly on.In your mind, you can fly.Profit From Shops Guide :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michel555555 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 i thought fire making would be lower on the list. I mean actually have more magic capes then there are fire making capes :ohnoes: [spoiler=click you know you wanna]Me behave? Seriously? As a child I saw Tarzan almost naked, Cinderella arrived home from a party after midnight, Pinocchio told lies, Aladin was a thief, Batman drove over 200 miles an hour, Snow White lived in a house with seven men, Popeye smoked a pipe and had tattoos, Pac man ran around to digital music while eating pills that enhanced his performance, and Shaggy and Scooby were mystery solving hippies who always had the munchies. The fault is not mine! if you had this childhood and loved it put this in your signature! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grasle Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Go construction! I expected hunter, firemaking, and magic to be more common. Otherwise, it looks 'bout predictable to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maleficus1055 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Wow, i'm surprised at how high Firemaking is compared to what I thought it was.. Also, more prayer than Hunter? o_o Tumblr. Follow me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandorf61 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 The only ones the surprised me were Herblore and Thieving. I thought Herblore would be ranked second for rarest 99 and I though Thieving would be a lot more common since the experience rate is so fast at Pyramid Plunder. Runecrafting will always be the rarest 99. Slow experience and a lot of focus make the skill unpopular with a lot of players. I wonder where the next skill released will end up fitting into the list.

zotto Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 When I was 85 slayer I was ranking around 5.000. Now that I am almost 99, it is 6000+ Shows that more people have started training slayer since, or that I train slowly compared to the rest. But then again many people stop at 85.

elucin8er Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Mining sure has stood the test of time. It was within the first selection of skills, and STILL it pulls a top 5.

Ollyc3 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 I didnt expect Runecrafting to be the rarest anymore with all the Graahk crafters. A year ago they was less people with 91 than the figure with 99 now. 2376/2376 total achieved - May 2009 Retired Dec 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotherBrainII Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Interestingly, Summoning and Herblore swapped positions in the rarity table between June and November. The same is true for Construction and Runecrafting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obtaurian Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Very surprised by Prayer. Hunter and Thieving are ahead of it! Not very surprised by Slayer. It has definitely become one of the most popular skills in the last year. Not surprised by Runecrafting, either. Slightly surprised to see Construction at number two. To put it bluntly, [bleep] off.

DakotaClark Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Thief and Hunter are super-close, especially if you consider their release dates. And I had no idea Str was above cooking. wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deyan2 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Prayer surprises me actually...I mean ok I'm F2p so it's way harder then p2p, but still.Hunter is easy to train and stuff, ok it's a bit newer skill (and P2p only), but after all those years it shouldn't matter that much does it? :roll:Prayer surprises me, all the others are +- expected.

Youmu Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 Prayer surprises me actually...I mean ok I'm F2p so it's way harder then p2p, but still.Hunter is easy to train and stuff, ok it's a bit newer skill (and P2p only), but after all those years it shouldn't matter that much does it? :roll:Prayer surprises me, all the others are +- expected.That's because in P2P, gilded altar has a Bury-X function so it's much easier to train now. That being said, why is Runecrafting the highest? I expected Construction and Summoning to be higher up... Maybe this list has given me something to do... at last, a long term goal.
