And don't get started on flaming me and saying Legends is easy quest, maybe for you but that doesn't mean everyone finds it easy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

now, i personally would love to see those people do legends quest on rs2, if it had the RSC combat system

i agree.. I think you said somewhere you did legends on RSC as well right? I did it at cbt lvl 80 on there it was rough... On here the cbt system makes any quest easy...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

nope, my accounts not even 2 years old, but ive played classic and find it a challenge and admire those who did play classic. infact, i wish they would add classic wildy to RS2. classic combat system was amazing

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

in fact i lvled my account's combat lvl in classic just last month.

 

 

250k isn't really that much money..

 

 

 

for people like my self it is, the max I've ever had is less than 150k, so 250k is forever too much for me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then you should get off your [wagon] and earn some cash

I find that legends cape looks better than obsidian and so i prefer it.

If obby capes would ever fall below 40k, you can buy cheap fury amulets

 

 

 

If you sell a cape to the shop, you would get ( I think ) 15k tokkul. 20 x 15 = 300, thats one onyx. 20 x 40 = 800k, cheap onyxes plox.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So one of the reasons for the stabelizing is TokKul, if It would fall below 60k, It would rise up like a rocket and will be 100k or so. So yea, Obby capes will be quite pricy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And It looks cool, but I prefer my questcape or firecape 8-)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I think they're actually 18k ea because Chaos Runes cost 45 each and sell to the shop for 9 ea (1/5 of the price)

yes and a skill cape is 99k and +9 and y not wear it u r gonna spend 99k on it anyway :-X

its the same as paying 2mil for a stupid ring... (duno if it was +mage or range or str) for just +4 or something...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

yer but you cant swap any other ring that gives 4+ str for it

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

some people that actually have enough money dont mind about that , i had a zerker ring as a drop once so i kept it but thats quite a difference with buying one

It's only a waste if you can wear the legends cape instead.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I got my obby cape before I got my legends cape. Should I totally diss the obby now? I mean to me almost every stats extra counts indeed. Eventhough I never pk, while training slayer melee on monsters aproximatly around my level, every def point is worth it.

When everything's been said and done, more has been said than done.

why dont you just go to fight pit and get tokkul and get one from that..all that costs you is time...and gives you training.

well in classic i made it to cbt lvl 89 which was difficult imo... i remember cbt 100 was a big deal now 120 really isn't much of big deal lol.

why do people pay 200k for an extra 10 defense from rune boots?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

why pay 20-some-odd mill for a d chain when granite is almost as good?

I realize that hellbellz but i'm asking why would you pay 199k more for +2 defence

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you're poor enough to even question the purpose of it, you shouldn't be buying one.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

For people who make like 500k an hour when they want to, 250k is like...irrelevant.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And besides...if you're taking that route...why would a person pay over 400M for a silly blue hat that gives no bonuses?

I am not poor, i am merely asking a question. And they would buy the hat because its sought after and its rare

Why not?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How much are berserker rings, and how much stats do they add?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How much better is a fury then a glory, and look at the price difference there.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

+1 hes totaly right

thxs vibro for the sig ^_^.

i got my obby cape from a drop and if i didn't i still be wearing my femmy light blue one so i don't see why people pay 300k for a cape that gives +9 def

Even on my death bed, I'll bare-hand that bloody shark.

When obby cape first came out, it weighed nothing, so big advantage there.

sigbanksupportqd1.gif

It is a waste...but I like the extra bonuses the Obsidian cape gives over Legends...I mean a few bonuses can mean a lot sometimes. Now with the new skill capes out...obsidian isn't worth it except for its looks. The skill capes just don't match that nice black, cool cape. I myself wouldn't buy a obby cape, but spend 99k on a skill cape, but thats's because I have the stats for it. Anyways, I would buy obby if I can't get a skill cape, because sometimes those few extra bonuses that obby cape gives over legends is important in situations sometimes. If I don't need those extra bonuses...there's really no point. Legends looks just as good as obby if you can't match it well.

ON BREAK

i paid well over 15.5m more for d chain than r plate. just few def points more

dragonfhpcape,It%20is%20girl.gif
Well thats why I did legends cape. Stats are very good, useful for pking and risking because its cheap. Much cheaper than 250k obby cape. Plus arnt the new 99 capes better than obby, but only 99k.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

UNTRIMMED 99 capes have EXACT same stats as obby (personally tested). No clue about trimmed capes though :-X .

250k isn't really that much money..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i know 5 Other things i can spend 250k to provide better def than the obby cape..like full rune..so in my opinion its not really a waste if you have some extra cash and feel like spending a little but if you dont then its a waste..so it can be depending on the situation
