Skill Cape or Fire Cape? *Urgent Reply Please*

Featured Replies

I'll be starting Slayer again within the next month or two. Seeing as i have an SGS and by that time ill have Full Bandos ill be Slaying with 10% Str Prayer. I haven't got a Fire Cape as yet but i am guessing getting one won't be all that hard. So basically which is going to be more usefull? The extra Def and Prayer from Skill Cape or the extra Attack and Str from Fire Cape?

This is not exactly what you asking, but ardy cape 3 has 6+ prayer bonus which is a big step up prayer wise from both.

[hide=Drops]

  • Dragon Axe x11
    Berserker Ring x9
    Warrior Ring x8
    Seercull
    Dragon Med
    Dragon Boots x4 - all less then 30 kc
    Godsword Shard (bandos)
    Granite Maul x 3

Solo only - doesn't include barrows[/hide][hide=Stats]

Other than capes, you'll be wearing:

Slayer helm

Fury

Whip

Proselyte body

Rune Defender

Proselyte legs/Verac's skirt

Barrows gloves

Dragon Boots

Berserker (i), we'll say.

 

You have 119 strength and 18 prayer.

 

With fire cape, you'll use a 3 dose ppot every 13.33 minutes.

With Skill cape, you'll use a 3 dose ppot every 13.87 minutes.

 

So in 10 hours of slaying, you'll save about four doses of prayer potions by using a skill cape over a fire cape.

 

It's still your call, but the accuracy and strength bunuses help also.

Skill cape is way, way easier to get, assuming you play frequently. The complete elimination of risk (you're only losing a little money, not time) makes taking the skill cape with me slaying much easier.

 

Add on, I think it looks nicer, and does help out for tasks that require pray.

Seeing that you already have 6 99 stats, get a trimmed skillcape.

 

The new game engine screwed up pray flashing which makes Jad harder than he used to be. Not sure if it is fixed though.

Well i have 86 Prayer.

Im on wave 56 atm, only used 3 Super Restores so far (thanks to some great SGS Specs :) ).

 

So i don't think i've wasted too much money even if i dont get it. Also i've been told that the prayer flashing/changing has been fixed for jad.

 

Aslo i need a kind of urgent answer on this: I'm not 100% sure on the sounds for Jads Attacks. I know when he stomps his feet he's ranging and when there's a meteor above his head he is Maging, but what are the sounds for each attack?

Also is it possible to defeat him without luring the healers away? Is it more or less risk?

Turn sounds and auto retaliate on, and have range pray on. If you hear something before you get hit, turn on mage pray, turn range pray back on once you get hit and try to find jad. Once you can see him, just watch his attacks. When the healers appear, have them all attack you then move around a bit so only one of them can attack you. Turn on 15% def pray, heal if needed. Finish off jad. Make sure you have inv space before he dies so you don't lose your cape to a random :razz:

Congratulations :wink: .

Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.
