99's or Skill Total

[Maynard]

Well I have always wondered what many people would rather.

 

 

 

Having a few 99 skills and low skill total or have no 99 skills and high skill total.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So What do you guys/girls prefer?

[swampjedi]

Depends on the 99s.

[Kenshinjapan]

Depends on the 99s.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Same. Like cook, fletch, fm then no. But like prayer, slayer and rc then yes! :D

[mindthrower]

I want both. :twisted:

[piman1053]

I want both. :twisted:

[hellbellz]

Depends on the 99s.

Yeah, it all depends on what skill it is

[swampjedi]

I have 2 99s and a high total. I'd trade those xp for more levels in my lower skills for sure.

[boozhoochief]

High total is better, though something like 99 farming, or 99 slayer would be worth it.

[tripsis]

It depends entirely on what the 99s were.

[Mr_Hyde1218]

total anytime. maxing a skill isn't all that exciting to me, other than maybe getting a cape (which would be easy enough to get for hitpoints or strength).

[icecube]

Similar to the question of what 99 skills.... how high of a skill total? And equally distributed levels among skills?

[Golvellius]

Before the achievement capes I would have said total.

 

 

 

After the capes, I say 99s since you get a nice cape and emote to show off.

[x_bow80]

I think having lvl 98 in every skill would be sweet lol

[Rebdragon]

If I had 99 Defense, 99 Magic, and other basic stats for DK'ing and CW'ing, I wouldn't care if my skills were as low as possible to do basic functions in Runescape, and easy quests. (like 40ish levels minimum, not much more needed).

[salim123]

well u mean have no 99s but high skill level

 

 

 

i would like to have everything 1 exp off 99 so 98 each skill :D

[Herpitome]

I'd rather have, say, 99 farming and herblore and a low skill total.

[saam007]

I have high total (2005 atm) and 3x 99s (Magic/Fletching/Cooking).

 

 

 

I would say high total lvl is much better - get all skill to 70 or 80 is much harder then getting 99 in fletching or cooking.

 

 

 

but again 99 agility/fishing and such (skill that you can't buy) are pretty impressive with low total lvl but much more impressive with high one ;)

[atronic92]

I would prefer a lot of 85's to a few 99's. But seeing as I am close to neither, I will be comtent with skill total.

[Elessar3019]

I'd prefer to get all to 85 than 4 to 99.

[Harrington]

Yeah, a good balance is preferrable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then again, like someone said earlier... it depends on what skill the 99s are for?

[Umega]

I have a high total (1755) and no 99 skills yet. So I guess total for me. :-k

[atestarossa]

Before the achievement capes I would have said total.

 

 

 

After the capes, I say 99s since you get a nice cape and emote to show off.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

yea... and we have all seen the last one :shock: you pole dancer!!

 

 

 

:P

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but same here as everyone, depends on the skill... like, ppl with 100+ combat and still a lot of skills in 1... there is something wrong :S

[Calaeria]

Definately skill total for me. I've never worked on one particular skill for any great length of time, like a day lol. I always have trained a bit of everything and keep all my levels similar* as I go along. As you can see with my combat stats and some member stats. :P

 

 

 

*(Similar-ish, since becoming a member the gaps between my skill levels have broadened.)

[Ran_Martin]

 

I want both. :twisted:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

:twisted:

:twisted:

[elishot]

I think it depends entirely on what 99s and how low your other skills are. There is no excuse to not have 50 slayer, because there are already 2 skill pures with 50+ slayer *cough*. And I also think there is no excuse to still have a lvl 1 stat, at least if you are at lvl 80+ combat(granted you aren't a pure of some type, and assuming we are talking about balanced players), and you have been members for a while.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But if there was say.. a member with 1000 total, and 99 fletching, and low other skills, then.. that account isn't very good. But if it was 1000 total with a few 99 stats (Not cooking and fletching) then it would be better.
