Skill cape perks!

Skillcape Perks

 

A skillcape is a RuneScape icon, and a true badge of honour. While the status and satisfaction that comes with those many hours of hard training is the true reward, there's no reason it can't be a boon on your adventures too.

That's why we've added a perk to each skillcape – each one a useful effect fitting in smoothly with its skill's playstyle.

There's one for every skill, and one for the Quest Point Cape, but it doesn't end there. Those of you who've earned the illustrious Max, Completionist or Trimmed Completionist capes can feed skillcapes to them, granting them up to three of the perks, which are shared across all of these capes. If you have three perks set and wish to replace one, you must first delete one that you have set.

Most are persistent, passive effects, but some are activated by right-clicking the cape.

I assume most if not all people will use;

 

Str

Invention

Dg/slayer/def

 

For comp cape perks.

Def for bossing and slay cape/dg for slaying

Weak. If the cape perk isn't making me woodcut faster I don't care.

dg and slayer perks aren't worth adding to comp imo, just have the cape in your inventory

also a lot faster to use, the extra teleports interface is an atrocious 6 step menu

Some of those are amazing.  Others are... meh. 

 

I'm a fan of the invention one.

Ive discovered the invention one is a 2% charge drain reduc....which dosnt save u much i think at most itll save u like 20k gp/hr

 If you're not banking for over 20-25 mins you'd heal more from HP perk with portent in your inventory / over having Defence perk + a piece of food in inventory

It's as if you are unaware of how to train Crafting and weren't paying attention on Teamspeak all weekend.

Both of these are true.

Over the course of a week's worth of slayer, that adds up. On my off days if I have nothing planned, I can easily get 5-9 hours of slayer in per day.

The quest point cape will be the most useful to me

 

30 extra seconds of torture per week

I imagine you're into this sort of thing.

I like the dismember perk but since it's melee only and doesn't apply to other bleeds it'll be useless like half the time for me.

Yeah I saw this, that's OP but still not useful if I use range at Aod or something. >_>
