Skill Pures

[Trobigod]

Well some people enjoy the challange, I know a level 3 with 1164 total, 99 crafting and 39 slayer myself.

 

 

 

I personally let people do what they want, unless it's rule-breaking. Of course, it's different in non-members due to lack of training spots and I hated them back then, in members they haven't caused me any trouble, just let them play the way they want, just as they (at least most of them) let you.

 

 

 

Also, level 3 pure skillers have no access to Tears of Guthix since that would raise their combat, so there goes a part of easy experience away.

u guys r totally missing thge big picture

 

 

 

The point of MMORPGs is to finish quests, fight monsters or people

 

 

 

if u just skill in games like RS or World of Warcraft, ur just taking the point out of the game

 

 

 

if thats the point of the game , i pretty much finished it years ago :?

[RayOxide]

bump~!

 

 

 

Why.....? WHY...!? :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

[Joes_So_Cool]

I agree with all of the above, but also, it can be much harder for level 3's to train because of combat restrictions etc...

 

 

 

But skill pures are becoming nearly as common as pures

 

 

 

If not more common, I don't really see the point, i'd rather have a 126 with max stats then someone named I skil 4 life I with 99 fm.

what's the point of playing runescape? to have fun

 

what's the point of making skill pures? to have fun

[l0rdbarney]

What is the point with skilling pures, they can skill, but can we skill on our mains. I mean the point of Mage/Range/Combat pures is to own the wildy, but what is the point with skill pures

 

 

 

Skill pures, no offense......

 

 

 

w00t! 100th post in tip.it

 

ya ive alwayd definitely wondered this, this also applies to ppl who just make more than 1 "main" just cuz they get bored of it or something

 

 

 

i guess they just get bored of seeing that 1 account, and being a lvl 3 cutting yews or something would look ownage(as long as they know ur not a macroer)

[Mooge]

I don't mind low level skillers :D

[Giordano]

I really don't see why any non-combat stat looks more impressive on a lvl 3 than a 123.

 

You get the same cooking/smithing/etc. exp as a lvl 3 combat as you would at 123 combat.

Teleporting (Thats a big one), Quests, Slayer, Runecrafting, Dodging combat, Less HP for agility, Hunter etc...

 

 

 

Being level 3 makes huge differences in difficulty

 

That's not THAT big of a difference...sure having a lvl 3 with 99 skills was cool at first, but now it's not impressive. So many people have them its not like "OMG wow!!11". -.-

 

 

 

Plus isn't hunter a non-combat skill...?

[RoswellCrash]

I mean yeah it is cool to be level 3 with 99 stats in fishing and stuff, but it don't impress me any more then a level 126 with 99 fishing.

 

 

 

It's just the way the have chosen to play I guess :?

Teleporting problems are easily solved by availability of teletabs...

[Dragon_lord]

Well, I asked my friend who's main is a skill pure, and he said that with the time other players are busy building up their combat levels, he'd level up his non-combat skills. 8-)

 

That's a darn good argument if you ask me! =D>

[Marvel Titan]

Never liked skill pures just do the work on your main, a lvl 126 with 99 firemaking is better than the lvl 3 in my eyes because the lvl 126 has put in more effort and gametime playing this game =P~

[Guest ShadowClawe]

Here comes RayOxide again, coming to coomplain about how he hates pures.

 

 

 

Anyways, like someone said, its easier to mine rune in wilderness at level 3, as not many people can even attack you.

Yea, I was pointing at luring and proding the animals...it's a lot harder running from them when they hit you with like a 3 or 4, then you panic, eat, and hopefully you're still alive :roll:

 

 

 

And I don't think you can argue that "Lost City" or "Shilo Village" or "The Feud" or "Elemental Workshop"...and there are more even tasks, like the new Karajma tasks (easy are completable by a level 3)...that require killing at least one monster to complete the quest...And those are (at least for me) a large amount of fun to try and complete at level 3.

 

 

 

It's the challenge that makes it more fun. :)

a lvl 3 as some draw backs which makes having high skills more of an achievement there is a lvl 3 guy in the top 25 on smithing and he is f2p thats way more impressive than any other guy

Elishot - #3 thieving - 200m exp - level 3 ;)

[Cloudwolf]

Mainly because of the impact.

 

 

 

You would expect a 126 for example to have a number of 99 skills. Where as, a level 3 with 99 skills, is well, suprising.

 

 

 

Telling people that you got these skills on your own gives people a sense of achievement.

 

 

 

Plus they look pwnage :)

[koddo1]

I have a level 3 because I enjoy it, and I'm pretty sure the point is to have fun in this game. I could be wrong though. Hmm.

[malo2]

I personally don't understand the point either, such a waste of time. I'd rather have one impressive account to show off.

[toast647]

Ha just go to any f2p world in edgeville bank and theres like 10 lvl 3 skillers cooking :XD:

 

I have a skiller because I go on it when I'm bored on my pure and its a def skiller

[Dazzuh]

Well i think looking cool and making people go WOW because your a level 3 with a cooking cape isn't good enough. To me it's still a lot of time wasted if you already have 60+ in the desired skill on a main account.

 

 

 

Plus i've noticed most of the skillers have either Cooking, Fletching or Firemaking cape or a combination and no other 99 skills. Which simply put doesn't impress me anymore, just kinda makes me sad that they wasted all that time. :shame: =; Sorry, skillers.

Elishot - #3 thieving - 200m exp - level 3 ;)

 

 

 

Elishot is lvl 4

[Star_Fox]

it adds a great challenge for lower levels to compete in higher stats then all then higher levels.

u guys r totally missing thge big picture

if u just skill in games like RS or World of Warcraft, ur just taking the point out of the game

 

 

 

no you are missing the big picture.

 

 

 

the point of any games is to do what you want and have fun, if skill pures don't wanna fight things and train combat, why should they?

 

 

 

Yeah really. I'm pretty sure the point of a role playing game is to form your character how you want it.

[joris_n]

The only point is trying to be special.
