I've always loved to train slayer! forces you to train multiple combat styles and support skills along the way! also cant beat the GP gains :)

fishing, i loved the process of the skill, although looking back i could just as easily get another skill to 99 with no effort. it takes a long time to level fishing ive done it for years to reach 99

the last dxp i played i got 99 range farming the charms for summoning, 99 prayer the day before dxp because i had the bones & the time, 99 summoning the first day of dxp & the second day i made the worst adult decision of my entire life... i went for 99 construction. its a neat cape but it hurts your soul a bit... but ultimately slayer :P

I think range is most enjoyable, then again fishing can be fun with people around that you can talk to. most wise slayer is always fun incase you get rare drops. farming is like damn wtf lol

So in a week I got three 99s and I'm gonna showoff a bit.  :P

Starting with Summoning, I did tons of AFK Blue Charm runs with the Exiled Kalphite Marauders
for at least 2 weeks. Got tons of combat XP and enough charms to get 99 in Summoning.



Next up will be Ranged. With the hours spent killing those ugly sand bugs the XP kept accumulating.



And my third and latest combat 99 skill is Defence. As I maxed Summoning,
I stopped visiting the bugs so I started doing slayer tasks instead to diversify a bit.


(Enjoy my self-made Augmented Custom-fit Trimmed Masterwork Armour)



I will train more combat as I level up my Slayer so I can finish the Hard tasks in Tirannwn. Constitution is my closest 99 and after I hit that milestone, I'll reach the max Combat level of 138. Such a combat freak~

Those are some really solid 99s!! Summoning is such a useful skill and Prayer of course, but you had that one ages ago like the combat freak you are. Those 2 and Magic are the 3 combat skills that still give you new useful unlocks at high levels.

My first 99's were Mining then Smithing both after the rework, I found that those were much nicer post rework and it helps to work on them together. For example mine what you need to smith burial armor sets for 99 smithing.
After 99 Mining and Smithing I got 99 Herblore done on DXP. This was my fastest 99, probably took 10-12hrs from 70-99 That only cost about 100m doing super sets to extremes to overloads. I actually ended up with 101 herblore but that was after dxp so who knows how high it would've been if I finished all my pots during dxp. (once I hit 99 I moved on to other skills to maximize dxp)
After that I moved on to 99 Thieving. I dd that from safecracking and it was pretty fun and easy. If you find a world with other people running the same circuit as you are you can have run racing to see who can open it first or get to the next safe first ect...When you get to rouges den that can also be a lot of fun cracking the safes in there with other safe crackers.

My first 99 was farming, of all things. All it took was about 5m to purchase animals for PoF and a few months of passively training it.

The first 99 I grinded for was thieving. Between safecracking and elf pickpocketing, the last 10 levels flew by.

With DXP:
Herblore or Summoning

Regular Training:
I always enjoyed Slayer and the combat skills. Probably Magic if picking one of those... everything uses magic so the 99 itself kind of just happens; some of the Completionist Requirements relating to magic are absolutely abysmal IMO but, just to train it from playing, the skill itself is rather enjoyable.

My favorite and most enjoyable 99 would have to be slayer. I say this because slayer is one of the best ways to get your combat up and earn great gp doing it. who doesn't like gp?? I know I love it :)
