Cape of Accomplishment

A Cape of Accomplishment (a.k.a. Skillcape) is a cape that symbolises the highest level of accomplishment in a particular skill. This means that player has obtained level 99 in any of the skills, or completed all quests in the case of the Quest point cape. The Capes of Accomplishment were released on 18 October 2006.

Each cape can only be purchased by players who have accomplished one of these feats. Capes of Accomplishment cost 99,000 coins, and are obtained from a specific NPC master, who can be seen wearing the cape. The NPC is located in a place related to his/her skill. These capes can only be bought on a member's server. Capes also come with matching hoods, although the hoods do not offer any bonuses. As they cannot be traded, the only way to obtain one of these is by reaching the skill level or completing the quests required.

Emote
Each cape comes with a special emote which can only be performed while wearing it. The emotes are meant to "represent" the skill required to obtain the cape. In addition, wearing the cape or selecting the "operate" option on the equipment menu temporarily boosts the player's effective level in the cape's skill by one, up to 100. This does not apply to the quest point cape. The Hitpoints, Prayer and Summoning capes have a one minute "cool-down" period between uses of this effect. The effect of every cape's boost of course cannot be reactivated until the skill has dropped back to 99.

Trimmed capes
Most capes have two styles, regular and trimmed. If a player only has one level 99 skill, the cape will be in the regular style, otherwise it will be trimmed; there is no way to manually choose the style, as it is entirely dependant on the number of level 99 skills one has. Trimmed capes have an additional Prayer equipment bonus over the regular capes, but other than appearance this is the only change. Once trimmed, a skill cape will never be untrimmed again. Regular capes will automatically be changed into the trimmed style the instant the player obtains a second level 99 skill, regardless of whether a second cape is purchased. It is also possible to trim your skill cape in a free-to-play world; provided that you have one 99, or you are wearing an untrimmed skill cape at the time. The exception here is the Quest point cape, which does not have a trimmed style, even if the player has two or more level 99 skills, and does not count towards the two level 99 skills needed for a trimmed cape.

this new reason tab is to show why it hard or easy to get one,
 * Editing Note

e.g summoning due to resources are hard to collect fletching due to it speed,

it should also go in hardness order 1 being the easiest, 17 being the medium and 24 being the hardest. please don't post what the skill is, thanks.

Trivia

 * While the capes themselves are members-only, if they are already equipped upon entering a free world the emotes can still be performed even though the cape itself becomes a "member's object". Members that come to F2P worlds for various reasons usually come with the cape on. A lot of them can be found wearing them on PvP or bounty hunter worlds.
 * On 29 October 2008, skillcapes were updated to include audio, making the skillcape emote the fourth emote with audio, in addition to the Trick, Air Guitar, and Freeze emotes. The fifth emote with audio was Around the World in Eggty Days.
 * While wearing the untrimmed version of a Cape of Accomplishment, the inside of the cape (the part against the character's back) is the main colour of the cape, but while wearing the trimmed version the inside of the cape is the colour of the trim.
 * The Capes of Accomplishment still show the old style skill symbols, and have not changed since the symbols' graphical upgrade.
 * There are 31 NPCs in RuneScape wearing Capes of Accomplishment. 28 NPCs for skills, and numerous Construction NPCs.
 * The Wise Old Man is the only cape seller not to wear the respective cape.
 * The Quest Point Cape is the only untrimmable cape, and cannot be used to trim other capes.
 * The payment of 99,000 coins is an obvious reference to the skill's level of 99.
 * Trimmed capes tend to make a player's words higher when sitting in the rest position.
 * Mod MMG announced that a certain cape would be available to long-serving players. Some players speculate that it is the Capes of Accomplishment that he is referring to, or the RuneScape Classic cape, that has been suggested in the Classic forums.
 * The only NPC to wear a trimmed skillcape is Ignatius Vulcan, the master of Firemaking.
 * The 99 Slayer cape (untrimmed) is one of the rarest Capes of Accomplishment in the game as most players obtain level 99 combat-related skill (like hitpoints) prior to achieving 99 Slayer, resulting in the cape being trimmed when they reach 99 Slayer.
 * The trim on the Firemaking cape seems to be smaller than the trims of other Capes of Accomplishment.
 * Many players believe there is going to be a cape that acknowledges the attainment of every Accomplishment Cape. However, this would be very difficult to achieve - as of 1 October 2009, there are only 336 players with 99 in all skills, and the amount with that and also the quest cape is unknown.
 * A bug allowed players to drop the skillcapes for their first 99 and when they achieved their second 99, the dropped skillcape was unaffected by "trimming" and could be picked up and worn still as an untrimmed skillcape. This bug was fixed on 21 August 2009.
