whats so bad about the quest cape?

Featured Replies

Reading quest guides is not skill, sorry. It takes a lot more time and dedication to get a 99 than a quest cape.

 

 

 

First off, not all questers use guides. I enjoy going guideless, it's a bit more fun that way, and you get a feeling of accomplishment at the end knowing you can beat the puzzles and such.

 

 

 

Grinding through a skill and getting a cape doesn't deserve respect. Finishing all the quests RuneScape currently offers doesn't deserve respect. Pointing and clicking is meaningless. The only thing in the game that deserves respect is the people behind the pixels. Let's stop blathering on about what capes are "respectable" and just play the game for fun and to enjoy the friends we make.

I love to meet people; send me a pm if you see me on RuneScape! :)

All of those things deserve respect (since they are challenges), the only argument is how much

Finally the secrets of goal achieving are revealed! (give my guide a read :^_^: )

I dislike the idea of quest cape, because its constantly taken away from you :D .Otherwise there is nothing wrong with it, and it certainly is as hard to get as other skill capes ;).

they are a easy cape to get compared to most 99's....which would put them in the same category as the cooking, fletching capes. I personally do not have one, quests are boring. Doesn't mean i couldn't finish my last 25 quests in 3 days lol. I see them all as "noob" capes, just my opinion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There is nothing nooby with a Quest cape. I would Trade my 19,6M fish exp for it, ANYTIME. :?

Well, that's your opinion, but I reckon 20M fish exp is worth more than a quest cape.

2480+ total

They're not easy. For one thing, you can't just do all the quests and never do any again, and still have the cape. Secondly, you need to train a range of skills, the exp needed to get all the skill reqs. for all quests > 13M. Also, you need to be good at puzzle solving, have lots of patience, etc. So no, it's not easy.

I will now drizzle rage dressing onto the salad of fury!

the thing most of the pll who see a quest cape as noob etc forget is that when u train a skill to 99, u usualy like the skill or see that u can get lots of good profit doing it. but when u wanna get a questcape or u wanna do 'that 1 new/enoying/hard quest that prevents u from wearing ur cape again' u dont find any extra support in training the req skills than the simple fact u have 2... this makes it sometimes more enoying/harder to get a questcape than to kill thousands of monsters for ur slaycape.

 

i for example had my questcape and when rocking out came out, i made the plans of training my smith till 69 but i allways delayed when i would do it cuz smith isnt fun and i think getting that 69 smith will take me more time than getting those 3m str xp for my next skillcape.

 

and i any1 hadnt noticed the questcape emote is 1 of the nicest there is so another reason to not call it noob and get 1 urself

There is nothing wrong with the quest cape. There is nothing wrong with any of the capes!

 

Some people are just too stupid to get that...

Quest cape is a good idea, in my eyes. There are tons of quests now, and the list grows all the time. Doing them all is quite an accomplishment, albeit not nearly as difficult as grinding a skill to 99. Even so, as long as people don't get too cocky with a quest cape, all is well.

theres no way you can do 25 quests in 3 days. even with a guide, it would take atleast a month or so.

 

 

 

most quests are really funny and i would almost do any thing to do them again. plus the great rewards.

 

 

 

the quest cape has to be one of the hardest capes to get, other then rcing and slayer

 

My friend went from 190 quest points to 276 in a weekend, definately not a hard cape.

Wait he got a level 3, trained all the stats high enough to do every quest, and finished them all in a weekend?

 

 

 

Because my friend went from 98-99 smithing in a day, obviously not a hard skill..

Any experienced skiller should have levels to complete every quest. It's not a hard skill your comparison is completely irrelevant. Read his comments he says that quests require skill and logic, then how do people get 80 quest points in a day or two?

i mean really, what does your skillcape say? that you are rich, and have a lot of patience? the quest cape says you have REAL skill, like puzzle solving, strategy, the time to raise levels that you dont want to raise*cough smithing cough* and the proof that you have decent all-round skill level. Plus i did about 75% of my quests WITHOUT a guide.

 

 

 

What does your questcape say? That you can follow directions? It's not really puzzle solving or strategy when you have a guide.

 

 

 

Now you say you have done 75% of them without a guide, well kudos to you, however you have no way of proving that. And obviously since you stated that little tidbit of info its important to you and you like others to know that about you. However you still have no way to prove it other than going by what you said.

 

 

 

There is no way to "fake" 500,000 clicks for 99 prayer or the 1,000,000 clicks for 99 rc (just entire guesses, but I would assume not to far off)

 

 

 

I think having patience is more of a skill than following directions. Just my opinion.

Apparently, my signature was to big.

What does the 'experienced skiller' part have to do with anything? I can guarantee that the quest cape takes longer then certain 99s, IE cooking. RFD alone is at least 10 hours of questing; over 2m cooking XP could easily be obtained in that period of time.

Questing isn't a skill, questing is a side goal that should be maintained as you train skills, as you unlock the appropriate skills you do the quest, if you have the skills it is already insanely easy.

I don't have any 99s, but I guess, it'd be about as long, anyway, back to the original reason i'm posting.

 

 

 

I HATE PEOPLE LIKE YOU, Howdydee2003. The quest cape; you have to raise annoying skills, you have to waste money of some of those skills. You can't do 25 quests in three days, unless you no-life or do easy quests, and plus, at least 85% of quests have a boss fight, and out of that 85% - 50% of those boss fights are hard, lots of quests involve travel to out-of-the-way places, most quests have puzzles you need to complete, the list goes on, go get a quest cape, Howdydee2003, then take your experience and tell us if it was easy, eh? :evil:

i just have one disagreement, which is that the equal amount of time is spent on both, so both parties are equally lifeless

god must be a builder. his original quote said six days, he didnt finish on time, he buggered off, didnt make a good job of it in the first place, and he still hasnt finished.

i just have one disagreement, which is that the equal amount of time is spent on both, so both parties are equally lifeless

 

Yes, but both of those can be considered to contain slightly more 'life' and 'geek status' then those that simply troll online forums accusing others of lifelessness without bringing up any interesting points.

99 cooking is miles faster then a quest cape.

If you have all the required skills I think questing is faster than cooking if cooking is at level 1, but me and a friend did realize its possible to get 20 million cooking xp in a day :lol:

Not a chance, cooking is roughly 60 hours; I spent at least 10 hours on RFD alone, and 6+ on desert treasure, 5 on underground pass (yeah, I hate those agility obsticles), and I'll be spending a lot more then that on WGS\MEPII

It's not, I've spent well over 100 hours questing, WITH guides. I can be somewhat slow at times, but getting all the required items is a huge pain.

There's only one bad thing about the quest cape...

 

It cannot be trimmed.

 

But personally, I think it's deffo the best achievement cape.
