I think skill capes are winning, but not by much...

i like the versatility of a rare. with my green mask, i am able to have multiple outfits, ive thought of about 10+ thus far. with a cape, its, in my opinion, harder to match cape with something. i mean, its pretty hard to match the fletching cape, unles you like gold trimmed adamantite, or matching the theiving cape with purple robes, yet some of the capes are really easy to match.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but, when it comes down to which i would like to show more, probebly the 99 cape. firemaking would be the one i would go for too. i just like the way it looks. :mrgreen:

I think a rare would be better because mostly you could sell the rare to get 1+ skillcapes (buyable) in the end.

There's nothing more rewarding than spinning around, covered in lightning and enjoying every moment of it.

fudgy999 is mean :-( throw rocks at him.

This will depend on What skillcape because for example:

 

 

 

Trimmed Prayer cape > Easter egg

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But it will depend on what rare too:

 

 

 

Red Partyhat( <3: ) > Cooking cape.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So yeah, still a little in between. Not sure what to pick yet.

you can't buy a fishing cape (unless you go fishing at shilo and count the feathers. even then it's only like 2m)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i'll say skill cape (trimmed fishing ftw!)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but i wouldn't mind a yellow phat or a red/blue mask

Yayyyyyy...

skill capes :)

A skill cape because you can lose a rare but skill capes are forever. O:)

^ Thanks Tiff <3:

no.. you can lose, then you have to buy again, lol

Yayyyyyy...

I would use the money to 99. Yeah, rares show off your wealth, but in my opinion skills come first. After you get the high skills come the money to get the rares.

of course rare

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

otherwise i will choose a rare skill cape that few people have like 99 farming,herblore and slayer

 

 

 

those 3 rocks and they are cool

depends what 99 cape your referring to

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

id rather have a rare than certain "easier" skill capes (e.g. cooking, fletching....) however my ultimate goal is slayer cape <3:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

id still prefer some harder capes, such as mining, smithing, rcing over a rare though

How about this, I would get a 99 in a skill where I either gained money, or did not lose any money. Then, I'd buy a rare.

I have all the 99s, and have been playing since 2001. Comped 4/30/15

Good input guys. Anyone else?

Well my vote goes for having a skill cape. Rares are particularly impressive to have, but you have to remember that some people did just get them free a few years ago and when you think of it like that, it somehow seems less of an achievement.

 

 

 

With skill capes, you know how much time people have put into them, some are clearly better than others though. Although rares do increase in value, you can at least use your 99 skill to make money as well e.g. fletching bows or cooking sharks. Therefore, skill capes ftw (although i am miles off getting one)

No. Why should i give presents for someone in rs?

Most selfish thing I've ever heard

Cant decide. They are all "rares" :P

I would get a skill cape of something that can make money (Runecrafting, Slayer, Herblore, etc.), but something like Cooking, or Firemaking, where you can't really make money, doesn't sound that good. I'd choose Skill Cape over rares, as long as I can get one in that skill. :D

Then why are you going for 99 cooking... :wink: Good luck!

99 dependant on skill

Your name is "bet you fail", and you're starting a business with your mom? I'm not even going to touch that.....

99's are always nice! ::'

Easily go with a skill cape.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have a santa and I wear it, but I easily prefer my skill cape. Santa is simply just to aid in looking cool along with my pretty fishing cape :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

APE :D
