I did not include Construction because it's too much of an intentional money sink to be fairly included, I think. The other two, theiving and agility, I struggled with either including or not, but ultimately decided against because they are not skills in which you create something or gather a resource. If Jagex thinks they should be included in the final design document if it wins, I definitely wouldn't be opposed to it.
May i ask why Agility, Construction and Thieving aren't in the list of Artisan skills do be assigned tasks for? Just curious....
Construction may be costly, the other two i can't think of a reason. Agility would be nice i don't understand why it's not in the list. 'Run 250 laps of barbarian outpost agility course' What's wrong with that?

You can check me on OS high-scores Son of Light - Horns and cowhides definitely did not get me those level's
noo way lol
@Pig and everyone else about current skills
None of these "new skills" really offer rewards that are either original or worth getting, and that's what your after from a skill..
You are right, some / most skills can be boring, but lets be honest:
Woodcutting - Get logs
Firemaking - Use logs
Fletching - Use logs, use smithed stuff, make ranged stuff
Fishing - Get Raw Fish
Cooking - Cook stuff
Mining - Ore
Smithing - Smelt and Smith
Farm - Farm stuff to Cut, Collect, Use
Herb - Uses supplies (usually farmed stuff)
Runecrafting - Make Runes
Magic - Use Runes
Hunter - in OSRS, basically Chins, let's be honest
Range - Use chins / ranged stuff through fletching
Combat - Smithed equipment? Not really, but use to be!
Slayer - Different way to train Combat in a more fun way, you actually "slay" stuff though
Construction - Total money sink, still useful though
Agility - Run Energy more or less
---
Ok, so these "new skill ideas" give new..
Artisan - motes of inspiration made to use stuff that lasts next to no time (1 bag load or if that) or 5% increased damage on said monster for limited time - but it's a "skilling" thing
Astronomy - Nothing useful and gives us nothing new anyone would use at high levels
Forestry - Good rewards to current skills only (making it a good -minigame- idea in my opinion) not a skill though.
Geomancy - To combat orientated rewards and almost required for all MELEE users, but you don't actually do combat for this "skill" - again, nothing worth really level'ing for anyways.
Herding - Junk
Just stuff that's already out + Ardy Cape basically + Agility compromise that Agility should offer instead.
Remember, these are my opinions, but none of the "new" skills have any connection to new resources, new complimentary aspects or new rewards that it's worth doing them for... Unlike every other skill in the game.

Good, I would hope not. The level 10 and 25 of a production skill shouldn't get you 80+ in a skill. That's why I made such low requirements for those items.
