Trivia

  • On the day of the release, clicking on the spoiler box on the RuneScape website for the rewards gave the message: "Argh! Someone's pinched the rewards!"
  • This is the first achievement set to involve elite achievements. Although Ardougne cloak 4 was not added until the other existing achievement sets also got the elite difficulty, with the Elite Achievement Diaries update on 7 September 2010.
  • If you obtained a higher tier cloak, it's possible to "downgrade" it to the first cloak by destroying it and reclaiming a cloak from Doctor Orbon.
