I'm not too bothered about the capes. Sure, you can show off your skills. But the fact remains that it isn't that worthwhile to get 99 in a number of skills (herblore, agility, farming, fletching, thieving), since most extra's stop at 80-85. The capes certainly won't drive me to aim for 99's all of a sudden.

 

 

 

I would be very proud of either 99 agility or 99 thieving though... But I'll stick with the quest cape, I guess.

i think alot of people will get fletching up

i think alot of people will get fletching up

 

 

 

 

 

Me being one of them :P

 

 

 

But in my defence I started about 2 weeks ago, before this was announced....

 

 

 

 

 

Honest..

 

 

 

Oh yeah, 99 cooking is also in the pipeline.

 

 

 

Bring on the capes!

About the skill capes... Do you really want people to know the countless hours you spend on the game, if you think about it as soon as you wear those capes get ready for a barrage of 0mfg0rx n0 l1f3r! G33k!

How bored were you? :shock: Guess it's nice to know though ;]

 

 

 

Oh and btw, we'll only see about 15k people wearing them, the rest of them will have quit.

i get that quest cape jsut did the remaining 4 quests this evening \

 

 

 

Hurray and i think ques t cape is together with like agility farminh and herblore 1 of the beter capes :lol:

 

 

 

(best skill str 85) s not any son an skill cape for me :( :(

uh oh...i gots to get my cooking up before prices skyrocket

Herblore is waaaaaaaay harder than agility...

 

 

 

What would the bonuses be for runecrafting??

 

 

 

It depends on which way you look at it.

 

 

 

Herblore:

 

-Very fast (as fast as fletching at low-medium levels; faster than fletching at higher levels); I'd say around 100k - 200k xp per hour

 

-Requires money (unless you get herbs yourself)

 

-Very similar to fletching when it comes to constant clicking and such (stringing)

 

 

 

Agility

 

-You have no control over how much xp you get per hour

 

-No money is required

 

-Don't get more than 50k xp per hour on average

 

-Requires patience

 

 

 

Given that information, I'd say that Agility is harder. Yes, herblore requires money if you want to get xp efficiently, but that's about the only downside to it.

Now, more on topic... Must have taken a while to get all those numbers :P I'm looking forward to soon being one of the few people who will have the 99 construction capes, and if all goes well.. The 99 prayer and RC capes as well :D :3>

I wonder if they will put QP on the highscores when they release the capes. Its the only one I am going to have.

funny, i got 1771 skill total, like 1 the best of my friends, yet no lvl 99 skill, and all my friends with far less skill total got like 2 skills at 99 :? o well i like to do my own things, my own way. defently getting quest cape though :thumbsup:

Herblore is waaaaaaaay harder than agility...

 

 

 

 

I disagree. Herblore exp can be bought (well you know what I mean lol) and the potions can be sold. 99 agility can only be achieved through time, it can't be bought. And it doesn't make you 1 gp... apart from the fact you could escape pkers etc etc lol.

Hmm.. doubt the cooking and fletching ones witll be rated that high to be honest.. anyone with a spare 400k can get 99 fletching, without ;ppsomg ,pmey. and cooking is easier.. ^^. Now RC one would be something to be proud of. I hope theyre released before N0va quit's.. just because the top players deserve to wear them at least once..

Great Job finding out all of those numbers. And you can see how hard 99 agility is to get, saying that it was one of the earlier member skills, yet still only 81 ppl have it, same with herblore.

 

lol that doesnt necessariyl mean its hard :P just that's its too boring and useless to get 99 in ;)

 

btw dont try telling me agility isn't useless -.- I know that and I have lvl 70 agil myself.

 

But lvl 95-99 is DEFINETLY not worth the effort.

 

And maybe 80-95 aren't either.

Very cool thread man, thank you.

 

 

 

How exactly did you go about compiling that? irc bot or sumt?

Herblore, people just don'd do or want to spend money on. At 45 herblore, if you have the ingrdients for Super attack until 99 then you can get it in 4 hours! :shock:

Has jagex claimed they'll be f2p?! Also, you cant know how many people have done all quests..even if they have reqs, they might put a poo on quests and dont do them

Which is a bit daft really considering the exp to get 1 skill to 99 is equivalent to the exp needed to get all skills to 67 each - be willing to bet most people have over 13 mill total exp these days.

I'd quite like to see that done - 8 pots made per second for 4 hours non-stop not including the slight delay of banking the inventory loads.

I only get 2 or three capes till the end of this year.. 99 fletch and 99 cooking in like 3 months, and need to finish some easy quests(13) and mep1 and 2 and fairy 2 :evil:

You forgot quest capes. #-o

 

There isn't a way to check how much people have finished every single quest...

 

 

 

But there is a way to narrow it down. The hardest skill to get is 55 Herblore for Fairy Tale II: Cure A Queen. So at the very most, there are 58,669 people with a quest cape.

 

 

 

No, the hardest skill for quests is the 65 smithing for devoius minds.

wow nice list, must of taken a while to work out :-k my bet is cooking and fletching are going to go up........easiest skills to "buy" exp in.

 

lucky for me they released this just when i decided to get fishing up currently got 2.1k raw lobs in bank :-$ cant wait to see prices sky rocket :lol:

Buying skills is just....not very cool.......Well, thanks for compiling the numbers. I'm wondering how many people actually did all of the quests though. I can't wait to see how these capes will look like.

I'm going to be one of those with 99 hp in a few days :)

64,211 people have it, but since its an f2p skill, I can't tell how many people can actually do the quest.

it will be alot more because people will work hard on getting 99 in a skill

someone had alot of time on their hands to count each and every one of the people that had 99
