No xp after 99!

Big Karliny · **Posted:** June 6th, 2008, 11:46 am

I often get ppl messaging me why i use ranged to kill monster if its already 99 i find it anoying since they dont stop and come out whit arguments u got ur cape trimed u dont need to get hp to 99 and stuff like that. Ok i can take it but no one cares if some random 120+ melee kills stuff whit it and like has 70 ranged no one tells him to lvl ranged so why they bother me?

What i came out of this is that most of ppl think that ranged is only alternative and melee has to be main source of combat for any account. I never say melee using ppls that it is for noobs or stuff like that but i find it often told to me that ranged is for noobs and another stupid stuff just becouse i use it after 99 and that i choosed to be ranger . I guess its just stereotipes but its prety stupid.

Anyways let's take me as an example i am only 109 cmb whit 80 att and 80 str but i choosed not to lvl those skills just becouse i find that i dont need melee and i don't use it.I could easily get them to 99 in few months but i dont get why ppl have to bother me just becouse i use me 99 ranged instead and just dont want a high combat lvl at all. Of course if i got em to 99 then no one would care what i would use ...

Its just mine opinion wich is based on ppl intolerance and lack of understanding that some ppl might be interested in ranging or maging maybe, istead of melee... Ok it's me opinion wich is based from one side and understand that i dont hate melee tbh i am very good at using it but i choosed what i choosed and now i pay the price for that, just thought i could share me opinion.

It isn't just for combat. I woodcut all the time with my cape on and people ask why I still woodcut. Don't take it too personally, its just what idiots that don't think do.

P.S. Also your signature got resized for a reason.

I get that a ton with fishing/woodcutting. Just because you have 99 means you have to put it away for good? Don't think so. Ever hear of fletching and firemaking? What if you don't feel like buying the skill, rather getting the logs since you already have 99? Don't you think it'd go a little faster than not having 99?

Just some thoughts that go through my mind when asked this. There's nothing wrong with going for 99 hp with range if that's your thing. Some people aren't smart enough to understand that apparently.

Yeah,it's kind of funny...
Some people want to keep getting exp in the skill even if it's already 99.And some people just enjoy the skill.And if you have 99 range,you must get pretty good hits...so why not use it in combat?

If you like ranging just range. Don't listen to those who say you can't. Many people on runescape are idiots and you can ignore them if they're bothering you or challenging your way of training.

Considering it's your account, and you probably enjoy training that 99, go past it. I mean, if I stopped my Attack at 99, I'd have just a bit less experience

[ SILVERWIZ9 ]: [attack] lvl: 99 | exp: 26,053,634 (199% of 99) | rank: 2,082

I'm just under 106 attack, experience wise, and am about double 99. I never stopped training, as I prefer attack to all other melee styles.

once you have a 99 you carry on that skill to get ranked.

Ya, any high skill can get you loads of money. (Except prayer? :wink:

)

High woodcutting = fast mage logs

High ranged = High hits!

99 anything = CASH

Don't have to pot up as much, so you save on potions, which saves on inventory space, which allows you to stay places longer :wink:

True Facts, but although paying gold to train is the best way, you don't have to do it.

It's actually funner to get xp after 99 than before it. That way, you wouldn't have a goal and wouldn't look at your xp frequently. You would get more xp than you thought you can.

Getting xp is still pretty fun as long as you like the skill, but climbing the ranks is basically the only goal you could have left for it. It's not a goal for me, but I like checking up on my wc rank every now and then
