What are the easiest 99s in Runescape? 

99 Bench sitting for sure! Got that in 5 mins, can't beat that!

99 fm... 17 years ago. Maple logs burned in lines at Port Phas. Lost my race by 12 hours.

Started playing Runescape nearly 20 years ago and never even got close to a 99 back then. Only got back into the game like 2,5 years ago. For some reason really got into Player Owned Farms then, which led to Farming being my first 99. Now I'm only 5 skills away from getting everything to 99!

I'm shocked farming didn't get a mention here. Yes, you can't really grind it out in one sitting, but you can train it while the game is closed! The POF allowed me to get 200M without any real effort.

My first 99 was fletching right after the skill capes came out! And to have someone ask you to do the emote ugh.....good times

First 99 was woodcutting, My favorite skill. 🌲

My first 99 was slayer because I thought it would be cool to have that cape un-trimmed. Bought like 10 capes so I'd have them. Thankfully I keepsake'd one of them...did not know they would all transform after I got my 2nd 99 lol.

Woodcutting was so relaxing and how i made money in the esrly days

My first 99 was dungeoneering! But I honestly think combat skills are the easiest

It's been over a decade since my first 99, and I'd say Hunter is much, much easier now for a first 99.

I’m surprised mining wasn’t mentioned at all. It’s the only 99 I have (but that’s basically only because seren stones let me train it nearly efficiently while waiting tables at work)

From a vet player that started back in 06, 120 is the real "99" in rs3.

First 99 on my main was Fletching, alts had slayer and magic as first 99s

It's always a triangle - do you value time, cost or activity? If you have a ton of money and can buy your way to one, it'll be rapid but usually quite active. If you have all the time but no money to spend on it - you can grind your way to a 99 in something that's more AFK. If you want to play very actively, say manual combat, you can get that quickly but it can be expensive to do so.

I have a 20 year old account that I have played on and off over the years. My first 99 was actually slayer which I got earlier this year

Everything is easy to get 99 now. 120 is the new 99

Sadly getting 99 skills became too easy.. I rememeber times when I started back in 2003 that achieving a 99 was such a milestone.. often hundreads of hours of really active playing and clicking.. today it's often a matter of few hours.. it's a shame..

I only train on double exp events can't be bothered to grind out anything normally

Divination, because I wanted that untrimmed cape at the time it was the newest skill in the game

Slayer my first. Year ago maybe. Was by far my highest skill. Got to 108 and havent touched slayer since. Now almost everything is 99+. Only 120 is farm. Eyes on 120 thieve next. Easiest for me was firemaking, due to incense sticks n dino propellant b4 they nerfed it money wise

Honestly, with the amount of things that give you XP and bonus exp (lamps, stars etc) any 99 is piss easy to get. Even 120 isn't that hard.... I fucking hate farming but I built up so much bonus exp that I could just do the bare min. farming mushrooms on logs in the wako islands and with cindercores Sure, not the most time efficient but far less messing about with teleporting around.

I had to grind my ass off on gorilas with dharocks for combat 99s next to a prayer altar after monkey madness quest :D Only OG players will remember this method :D :D (If you are late for 1 second to recharge prayer you insta died with 1hp)

I think thieving is still the easiest 99 for all accounts. Prayer is good for normal accounts, but without a GE, Ironman relies on thieving, high alch drops, or boss drops. You should do "the hardest skill to 99". Maybe also "worst/best to train" as well. I find Summoning and Herblore to be absolutely awful as an ironman.

My first 99 was Woodcutting as it was a childhood memory / achievement of me that I wanted to relive. My first 120 was Herblore. Pain in the a** but I love the cape. I dislike combat so yeah... the benefits aren't really special to me.

every skill is easy mode now, i love the game but its really the nostaglia that keeps me playing i hate how easy 99s are now, its taken all the achievement out for me, people used to do 99 partys, no one would even bat an eye lid at a 99 now. i remember no lifing farming, by doing patches and combat with seedicide, i spent a stupid amount of time going for it daily and took me 7 months to get 200m i was over the moon, i got a sub 900 ranking and this was just before POF, if you look how many people have 200m farming now since POF its insane, its the 6th most common 200m (70k ppl with 120 and 20.8k with 200m), back when i got it it was one of the rarest.

first 99 was strength years ago, i was hoping it would make me very strong XD i unfortunately didnt keep my untrimmed cape.... wish you could buy them back

I got 99 construction this year and was pretty excited about it. I actually made money getting it as well. But this video kind of shit all over my pride of wearing that cape. Same with the prayer cape. I wanted it for years and finally got it. And yet cooking isn’t on this list. Which I got in a matter of hours during double experience weekend. And don’t care for the cape. 😅

I Just got fire making. it's so profitable and cheap to buy logs but I got 94 woodcutting saved a bit for the rest of my fletching level which is 80. I think that would count as an easy skill too. Or at least it was for me.

The skills you enjoy :)

Just got 200m Farming last month and now I’m taking a break lol. Decided to hope back on old school for a change of pace. I’m almost 99 in all skills so I just need to take a break from the grind.

First 99.. mining. Loved it cause it was afk-abke with prifdinnas, my next was crafting!

my first 99 was Prayer. I did a lot of bones at gilded altars in a friend's player owned house, but once i unlocked it I switched to clensing in the Hefin district of Prifddinas

Im insane so i got 99 agility first lol. But i do have a keepsaked untrimmed agility cape for whatever bragging rights that may be 🙃

You forgot runecrafting. You can get up to 650k-700k crafting miasma runes

My first 99 was Slayer over 10 years ago second was constitution 1 kill later that took some doing but 120 slayer now wa so much easier lol

Very different for irons rip. Thieving is definitely the easiest since it has no interaction with other skills (agility pickpocket aside) and has fast xp rates just like mainscape

Im not sure about the invention one. Ive been using augmented weapons and tools throughout all my 99s and siphoning the XP. Im almost totally maxed with 3 skills to go but invention is still at 90.

99 fishing back in shilo village around 14 or 15 years ago. College student life!

True but get the skill cape from getting 99 should get a years cape too. Shouldn't use lamps only stars.

my first 99 was runecrafting! majority of the xp is AFKing at runespan and finishing it off at souls.

I got 99 firemaking in f2p like 9 years ago. Still have that untrim cape keepsake

Fishing is the easiest.

First 99 was cooking. Got it for free in the clan citadel at the bbq plot. Yes it took way longer than it needed to that way :p

Got 99 thieving back in like 2015 at the thieves guild blackjacking

Smithing Doing Gauntlets / Boots to burial is quite AFK and not bad EXP

amazing... i have 9 level 99s, and none of them are the ones you mentioned LMFAO

Firemaking is better doing the dino stuff, you can afk for a minute and half just lightning shell shard

with bonus exp out every 3 months now 99s are just a joke... still fun goals to get for sure

First 99 was attack. Sadly i never had an untrimmed cape as i had multiple 99s when the capes came out

99 div was my first because of money chasing for bonds afk/high income

Ha nice.. with telling us how easy it is to get 99 at the start.. while.. showing MTX LOL

My first 99 was wc back in does days when it was old school rs 2003-2004

i love that u said prayer first as im i can say no on that 1.

seems like you forgot cooking is fast as well...?

Farming was my quickest 99 because of POF

Got my tea ready!

What would your ironman easiest be?

Defence is 20m/hr during dxpw :)))

First 99 was herblore because I'm a pimp 😎

I'm probably just too oldschool because I still can't ever see myself getting a 99 in mere hours like a lot of you guys do. It's just so incredibly boring and I lose interest -- even bossing I can't do for much more than an hour or two. I find my time on runescape so much more enjoyable when I am constantly switching between different things to reach requirements for quests and minor unlocks. I feel that overall I can properly appreciate a large variety of content without feeling immediately disappointed by the reward because 99 isn't really my goal on an account until I am running out of things to do for progression.

pretty sure dungeoneering was my first 99 because that's the most fun I can have playing this game. and, for a player with no other 99s, the trickle of xp you get in other skills while doing it ain't too shabby.

All of them seeing how it's rs3 lol.

First 99: Magic, trained endlessly at the Abyss Most recent: Slayer, earned at Onyx dragons in the deep WILDY dungeon south of mandrith

Fletching it was easy and could be done as a bankstand

OR play ironman and play the game as it was intended

When is the beach ? 97 dung im ready for 99

I’m currently 55 whatever the new skill is called. I haven’t even done intro and don’t know the name of it. I’m just back after 2 years of no playing, these lamps are insane!

Agility was my first 99 back when Barbarian Advanced was the best course and Silverhawks didn't exist... told myself if I could suffer through that I could get any 99 :')

I felt like dart fletching made 99 easy peasy

Necromancy was the fastest to 120

My first one was mining a long time ago...

99 sailing only took a few minutes

It blows my mind to think people don't see it as an achievement. I've been playing off and on for YEARS as a casual player (I'd estimate 4-5?). I'm 2185 skill, 119 combat level, ~120 quest points, and JUST earned my first two 99s from the last double exp weekend (Herblore and Smithing). It took me using damn near all of my 48 hours of bonus time just to get across the finish line for both (they were ~85 prior to the start of double exp), and it was the most I'd played within a 1-2 week span in the last 4 years for sure. I felt exhausted by the end of it but immensely happy at finally accomplishing something I never could when I was playing on my first account as a 9 year old kid. I truly think the only people who don't see 99s as achievements are those who either need to step outside a bit more and not play the same game hours on end every day, or those who have been lucky enough to play this game for a decade plus and therefore are lightyears ahead of the average casual player.

How about the easiest 110's with 99 meta tho?

Archaeology is by far the most rewarding 99 to get. You can’t rush it with bxp or dxp because you find yourself having to go back and do the requirements for the achievements anyway. Plus it’s an overall fun skill to do

Thieving was my first 99 on a iron

this dude running out of video idea lol

@protoxx dankjewel 🙂Tip! Use Fire lighters (the shrooms on a stick) while firemaking to collect automatically the Fire Spirit rewards. Meaning you gain a slim chance on making money while training FM.

"while achieving level 99 in runescape 3 has become significantly easier due to numerous qol updates, faster training methods and a plethora of xp increasing items and events..." takes reading between the lines to a whole new level if you just notice the background the entire time...

My first 99 was Constitution (HP) as I was mostly training combat, then Defence. My first 120 was archaeology, but it was my last skill I got to 99 😂

My first 99 was attack in RS3. In OSRS my highest skill...is attack. There's some nostalgia about the melee style that just takes me back lol. I've been playing since 05.

How did not get a mention as the easiest 99?

First 99 was Dungeoneering!! Saved the untrimmed as a really nice keepsake c: I have a number of 99's past that, but I still sit on 98's in Attack and Strength... Yeah, I'm not going to push those two intentionally 😂

My first 99 was Smithing since it's my favorite skill by concept (but in practicality, making your own armour is a crapshoot and not generally worth it [I did make my own MW armor though]) and then I ended up forgetting to keepsake the cape due to not having a lot of gold to waste on bonds for keepsake keys and got 99 Mining during an event and lost my untrimmed cape XD

What about agility? Throw on the boots and do anything else while it skills.

Cooking is ezpz

99 Agility in 2011, purely because I wanted a cool blue cape. After trimming it with herblore, I decided to max so I could get a customizable cape.

Mining is the easiest for me I did 200m before even having 99s everywhere. You just mine corrupted ore afk to lobby timer and that's it. No banking, no cost and as low effort as runescape can be

Necromancy belongs here for sure. It's not insanely fast but it's accessible, afk, and mega cheap. It was literally created to be a new or returning player's access point to pvm, so it wants to zoom you to 99 or 120 with decent gear to get you learning boss mechanics before you have the gear and unlocks to do the higher dps but higher requirement combat styles.

My first 99 was hitpoints and I made my way to about 24 98s, but without combat and a few other skills, I was losing interest in playing. So, I achieved the 99s and continued my gameplay

😂 bench sitting was great

My first 99 was Constitution. Got a huge boost in that skill when I converted all my Soul Wars zeal into xp. Got the actual 99 in 2018 while on an Abyssal Demons slayer task.

First 99 was Attack. The red cape is just awesome, even though atm im using the Divi cape for fashionscape.

I'm working on an account that i started to do the gold cape and p-hat events so only a few skills were worked up. My fist 99 will be and I am surprised it wasn't mentioned is going to be agility lol. 95 percent of it from silverhawk boots.

My first 99 was Divination

What do you make to get 99 construction for only 50m?

Do a easy 99s for iron people:)

99 Prayer, I put every single quest reward lamp into the skill as well as any other lamp and star from the moment I started playing. Then finished up the skill with cleansing stones in priff during a dxp once I got there.

Thieve was my first 200mil back in the day. Pyramid plunder was the best and only true way to go back then. Never wanted to go back but that scepter of the gods came out so im back grinding for it to speed up clues

My first 99 was Agility, I'm probably one of the rare few that actually enjoyed doing laps. I got it shortly after the Advanced Gnome and Barbarian courses came out, since there was something new to work towards outside of the Cave Goblin course.
