Lord_Gromit Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 How many of you wear your cape while training, and how many just leave it in the bank as a trophy? Are the stat bonuses worth the risk of lagging and losing it, or does it stay in the bank almost eternally? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hungryblader Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I can't answer youyr question, because i'm a lowly lvl 37, but I just read the forum to see how many players actually own a fire cape. Does anybody? anyone at all? "Dost hath not giveth thy name 'noob' to thy brethren... ...Or thou art must considereth thyself a noob as well."

Sp4de Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I've seen plenty of people post about owning a firecape, and all around Runescape I see people wearing them for show and a some in training. ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâï(ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâú_o)/ÃÆââ¬Å¡Ãâï Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azbball55 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Firecapes are often used in training by most 120+'s because they can usually easily get another.If you have a bad connection, dont take it as you may very well lag out and lose it depending on what you're training on. If you have a good modem or other fast connection, then by all means use it because it does help often in training Thanks for the sig poker! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvw08 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I see mixed, people training for their max hit wear one seeing as it is the best cape in the game however for normal training, usually no because it only increases your max by like 1 or 2 which makex the risk of losing it because of losing connection not worth it.

Shadow93 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 i've seen someone pking with a firecape while skulled! but he was lvl 125 so i'm sure he could take care of himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazardmaster Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Well if I owned one, I'd think it would be pretty pointless storing it in your bank. I'd want to show off with it. Even on a 46.6kbs connection i actually rarely lag, and I find my broadband friends lag more than I. It would be very unlikely for me to die with it on, but I would probably then just wear an obsidian cape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xpx Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 How many of you wear your cape while training, and how many just leave it in the bank as a trophy? Are the stat bonuses worth the risk of lagging and losing it, or does it stay in the bank almost eternally? theres no risk training with it unless you dharok and are far from telespots. The stats are even worth it to pk with it- theres no real risk loseing it thatway cause you can pick it up after dieing. + the fight caves only hard thing is that its quite long(90 mins) First to 99 Farming on 27.

All_Bogs Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 I do everything with it except for pk'ing. Even so, if I take it to dangerous spots I try to keep it among the items I keep when I die, since having to get it again would be rather annoying.

bornl337 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 i wear mine for everything except pk'ing which i barely do i did lose it once and had to do the minigame over again which was the worst part =\ 2 hrs is not really a short time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomdavies90 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 i dunno why people like fire cape i mean yeah its a good achievement and all but really it looks rubbish i mean a bright orange cape! if there was just a normal bright orange cape in the game i bet no1 would wear it, partly cause orange dont match with anything. a black obby cape goes with anything! if i had the cape i would never wear it cause i h8 it and thinks it looks ded dodgy and really wide for some reason....

muggiwhplar Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 Hell, I wear mine when I runecraft via the abyss :lol: Worked hard for it, no point in letting it sit in my bank. Even if I do lose it, I can get it back easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PArocking Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 yes i do but my connection is rather fast, and i would hate to get it again if i ever did die with it, but yes i take the risk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
met2003 Posted March 28, 2006 Share Posted March 28, 2006 yeah i used mine for most things just wouldnt take it to things like kq or pking cause im still quite a low lvl (108) and its rather easy to get back anyway did it in 2 trys. would have probs got first try but comp crashed 5 rounds from end lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
