aglips Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 I got my att, str, def and HP skill to lvl 99 before the skill capes were released. Obviously, you hit harder at lvl 99 (and with super pots) than you would at lvl 96, 97 or 98. That was my main reason for getting them to 99. I don't believe getting level 99s in fishing, woodcutting, cooking, fletching, crafting, etc would makes a big difference when doing these skills as compared to having level 96, 97 or 98.

spikerkid Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 I got 99 Fletching before the capes (something like 1 year ago) and the only reason why I got it because there wasn't many people with 99 skills back then. 99 Fletching was an achievement unlike today where only reason why people go after a skill is to get the cape. Then I got 99 Cooking a few weeks after the capes came out because I don't have a fire cape and the next best thing is a trimmed skill cape. Plus it was easy total levels. Well my ex crafting goal was for the cape, furies, and total levels. That's all I wanted it. Quit RuneScape :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alg Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 it's for the cape nowadays, whether they like the skill or not. my opinion: any 99s i'd go for would be for love of the skill, even farming (planned for 2009), and most skills i dislike are lower (except mining) it's more fun if you play for fun I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mirjahasan Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 I got 99 hunter because I liked the skill and it wasn't boring (ok, yes it was :wall:) but it was my favorite skill. I got 99 cooking just to trim my cape. I do believe some people just get a cape to show it off, not becuase they like the skill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggieg333 Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 I myself don't have a 99 skill. If I ever get one, I wouldn't get it just to have a cape. I would get it to show that I worked hard and honestly, collecting most of my own materials. Chances are, since I'm such a low-spender anyhow, I won't pay 100k for a cape, when I could have a cape that is only 750gp (Legend's Cape, if I do the quest lol). That's my spiel! Join BsK today.
