September 21, 201114 yr The cape reduces special move bar usage by 25%, basically getting you another scroll per bar for unicorns, and another 5/3rds of a scroll for iron/steel titans.It helps quite a bit for a unicorn, together with summoning potions. Normally you'd drink a brew for ~170 lp, but a summoning potions gives you 15 special move points, and a unicorn special costs exactly that with a spirit cape.With an iron/steel titan it doesn't help nearly as much because you also get helmet scrolls, and those don't cost special move at all.Of course you give up a soul wars cape (important at crawlers) or fire cape (important for slayer) which means the spirit cape isn't worth it anywhere but in single-combat (safe) pvp where you heal with a unicorn.You can also only bring the cape in your inventory and equip it when you have to heal, then unequip it for a better stat-boosting cape.

September 21, 201114 yr I heard that it's useful for summoning pures, which would make sense, I guess. Read my blog | Follow me on Twitter | Track my XP
