My delts get tired when I just rope... wtf? I get more tired from swinging the rope, than actually jumping over it haha. What can I do about this? its weird

sounds like you have to much shoulder movement going on. how are you jump roping? are you doing alot of cross overs.

It should be in the wrists man.

Use your wrists to spin the rope, not your shoulders. Higher speeds this way also.

Look at it as a bonus. You get muscle building and cardio at the same time!
