October 18, 200619 yr Fire cape still takes skill to get. I've seen more skill capes today than I've ever seen fire capes :-s Skill capes only take time and patience...
October 18, 200619 yr fire capes will be less worn then before but they will have a higher value then skill capes simply because you dont just train a stat get the cape and buy another every time you lose it
October 18, 200619 yr What? Lol? Fire cape still has the best stats in the game. Only thing he wont be the best, is trimmed 99 capes, which give just 2 more prayer bonus, than fire cape does. Can't see any reason why fire cape will or would be less worn, now, after this pretty pointless cape update. I mean, they look cool and everything, but really, who would prefer it to a fire cape? :rolleyes:
October 18, 200619 yr I think people will walk around more with skill capes then fire capes. but when training: mage still be god cape. range/melee will be fire cape unless u got 2 99's and u need the prayer bonus over atack/defence bonus. I am not sure what the hp cape special do but if it heals u or something like that people that got it might prefer to use it instead of firecape.

I am not sure what the hp cape special do but if it heals u or something like that people that got it might prefer to use it instead of firecape. (same for prayer) fire cape still gives a pray bonus, just 2 less, depends if u prefer 2 extra defs and 4 extra str, 1 extra attacks or 2 extra prays. fire cape still has the best stats in the game, probably even if i get some 99 stats ill still use my fire cape always.
October 18, 200619 yr It does. Every cape gives a temporary +1 to their respective skill. Either click "operate" when worn or simply re-equip the cape for the +1 again. Like others have said, Fire Cape is still the best cape in the game overall. I will still wear mine most the time, but for instance when fighting Steel Dragons I may now opt for a hitpoints cape simply because it's easier to replace along with 2 higher pray bonus. Fire Cape is only worth 36k, while these capes are worth about 57k and only cost 99k to replace.
October 18, 200619 yr fire cape shows you've mastered to combat triangle/pyramid.. skill capes are for solo skills.. Sig Under ConstructionCurrent Goals: FIshing 91/99 Cooking 93/99
October 18, 200619 yr Sadly, God capes would probably be more useful when maging :? . Maybe it'd be good for Magic Darting 20's on Rex and the Barrows Brothers, but other than that it's just fo show.

October 18, 200619 yr fire cape is still best for combat (except mage), so fire cape will ALWAYS have a use
October 18, 200619 yr With 50 range and no hope at all for a fire cape, I personally prefer my new quest cape to my obby; simply because it has the same bonuses and is cheaper. My obby will always have a special place in my bank though... 7 months ago, shoulen m0nk lured me for everything. If you know anything about him, pm me.lol that was a good story but his eyesight must be poor... it's a well known fact that mods only drop garages on players. :lol:
October 18, 200619 yr Fire cape will still reign supreme while pking and training - where it should :P Proper Daily blogging including Starcraft 2! Includes goal for 80+ all stats
October 18, 200619 yr Even if they made capes with tons better stats than fire cape but easy to get I would use fire cape, it's still way more respected than a skill cape. Skill cape takes alot of clicking and time where fire cape takes skill to defeat all those waves and then kill a 702. [spoiler=Levels]

October 19, 200619 yr for fighting monsters people will still use firecape for pking some people might use strength cape simply because its easier to replace
October 19, 200619 yr Firecapes will still show off your true skill, but i think they should maybe make the fire cape look a lil cooler or add sumtin else on to it. 814 to 99 HunterTrimmed Hunter Cape: 99 CookingTotal Barrows Items: 53Total Barrows Earnings: 65,545,000gp
October 19, 200619 yr fire cape: good def, str bonus, prayer bonus, and melle bonuses skill capes: meh, its an obby cape with an emote (unless you have 2 which its then a TRIMMED obby cape with a prayer bonus and emote :thumbsup: ) fire cape is still the best cape for stat bonuses but skill capes are new, just wait, in a few months youll hear "woot i got a 99 cape!!" "yea? so?" i think fire cape is still worth it because it also has an animation :D http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=615955click link to go to ganon95 productionsrunescape requires a lot of skills, napoleon dynamyte would love this game i am the proud owner of the quest point cape; all quests done 12/04/06

October 19, 200619 yr I'm not sure, myself...I keep dying at jad, so i might just stick with an achievement cape... Got 99 range? Love PKing, God Wars and other events? Then join Team Fatal, a 99 range group!Forums: http://z3.invisionfree.com/Team_Fatal/index.php?
October 19, 200619 yr Depends you are.. A level 3 skiller aint gonna want a firecape, and someone with 99 slayer is going to hold that cape.. .If your just an average, semi-skiller who likes combat, then i guess you'll value the cape very highly.
