Hello,

 

I think it's excellent the Thieving Skillcape has an effect now (for those who don't know, it now reduced the chance of being caught while pickpocketing), however as you typically want to use the Ardougne Cloak for the bonus experience I'm finding that the new skillcape effect is not that much help.

I could understand if this idea isn't looked upon favorably as maybe it's better to have to choose between one or the other, but I wondered if perhaps the thieving cape could count as an Ardougne cloak as well.

 

If there were concerns over people then not buying the Ardougne cloak then perhaps you would have to use one on the other to merge them or something of the like?

Maybe this could be a benefit of comp cape?

 

Seems kinda fair to have to choose one or the other to me.  Pretty neutral on this suggestion.

The completonist has all best in slot combat capes in one as well as the regular max cape perks(including all skillcape effects.) This makes me wanna support what @ Mantis said. I’d rather see both perks being implemented on the completionist cape rather than the thieving skillcape. People may think different, but I do think that Thieving is pretty much a common skill to get 99, even on Realism mode.

Neutral.

Yeah I can certainly understand why you might feel that way. But the thing is, is it a decision?

You thieve stalls for money and pickpocket for exp. So there's not really much reason to take the thieving cape as it will give less experience than just continuing to use the Ardougne cape.

Unless you want seeds?

The max cape and thieving cape perk is nice for thieving seeds but that’s about it. It does kinda suck that you can’t get the bonus exp and enhance chance of success but I think having the 2 together after only getting level 99 is a bit much.

I agree that having to choose between the two is a pain but I think it's situational. If you're going for seeds use the Skill cape. If you're going for Xp wear the Ardougne cape. I'm Neutral on combining the two none the less it is a good suggestion.

The Completionist cape has both bonuses, and the Ardy max cape and Ardy cloak have the bonus exp. Since players who got 99 thieving did not purchase the Ardy cloak, we don't give them the bonus exp that it provides unless they have a completionist cape.


Your suggestion has been declined, if you feel this was wrongfully done please contact a Forum Moderator+.
