Cape of Achievement

A Cape of Achievement (or skill cape) is a cape that can be obtained from special masters when you've achieved the highest you can in a skill. This means level 99, or having all Quest Points in the case of the Quest point cape. They cost 99,000 coins each and come with a matching hood. It cannot be traded. Also, accompanying each cape is a special emote that you can only use while wearing the cape. Finally, wearing the cape will boost the relevant skill to an impressive 100 in your stat menu for a brief period of time. You can regain this boost by removing the cape and putting it on again, or by right clicking it and selecting "operate". For Prayer and Hitpoints, however, the cape's effect cannot be reactivated for a whole minute once the effect has worn off. Each cape has two styles, a regular style and a trimmed style. When a player visits a skill master with two or more skills at the 99 level, the purchased cape will have a special trimming around its edges. Capes with this trimming have an additional plus 4 Prayer along with the plus 9 to each defense. If you already have a cape when you reach 99 in a second level, the cape you have already will become trimmed automatically.

Skill capes have been criticized by many players as useless, and not a fitting reward for reaching level 99 in a skill. Some players are also dissatisfied with the fact you can't get an untrimmed version of the cape if you have two 99 skills. Capes of Achievement are members only.

When the skill capes were released, the Fletching cape was available in the Rangers Guild. It was later moved to Catherby as many players thought it was unfair that they couldn't buy it because they didn't train ranged.

Quest points
For this cape, seek out the Wise Old Man in Draynor Village just north of the bank. A player must have completed all quests including the additional quest point Wish List in the Rag and Bone Man quest. When a new quest becomes available, the cape and hood will be unequipped and placed in the inventory, or bank if the inventory is full. In case the bank is also full, the cape can be obtained again without charge from the Wise Old Man.
