Capes of Distinction

Capes of Distinction is a set of capes released on Tuesday the 3rd of May 2011 first mentioned in the Developers' Blog "Capes of Distinction" that are given to players with various requirements such as account age. Their release was then announced in a Behind the Scenes article

The Capes of Distinction

 * Veteran cape - a cape that any player can wear if his or her account is more than 5 years old.


 * Expanded Veteran cape - a cape that any player can wear if his or her account is more than 10 years old. This cape will first be released about a year later than the other Capes of Distinction.


 * Classic cape - a cape any player can wear if he or she has at some point logged into RuneScape Classic.


 * ‘Max’ skill cape - a cape that a player can wear if he or she has reached level 99 in all skills (note that 120 dungeoneering is not required ). Sold by Max in Varrock. The cape has customizable colours.


 * Milestone capes - a set of capes, which a player can get one when all of his or her skills are above certain levels (multiples of ten). They can be woven on a loom.


 * Completionist Cape - the 'final' cape. Can only be worn by those who have 99 in all skills, 120 in dungeoneering, max quest points, and have completed every task. Like the Quest Point Cape, this will need to be re-earned as new quests, tasks and presumably skills are released. Although this cape is not referred to during May 2011's BTS, a "Varrock Museum" cape is, described as being the cape after the Max cape. The cape has customizable colours. This cape can be trimmed upon completion of 5k Castle Wars games, 4k chompy birds hunted, and completion of Shattered Hearts. This Cape has an emote that turns you into a black dragon, in which you fly up and burn "R S" into the ground. Trimmed cape makes you a golden dragon. Also known as the "Uber Cape."

Other information
The Veteran cape had a guaranteed content poll to determine its appearance.

Any and all Capes of Distinction can be stored on any cape rack in the player's costume room. Unlike Capes of Accomplishment, they are not restricted based on the quality of the cape rack
