because runescape wants more people to become members because it costs money to run the site.
You need to be a member to get any of the skill capes
You do not need to be a member to wear a fishing skillcape, however you do need to be a member to aquire the skill cape.
One should sell their guthix plate-body and legs to get the fire making skill cape if you match these criteria. 1 you have enough money to get 99 fire making. 2 are you willing to spend the time doing it. and 3 you need to be a member.-An experienced fire maker on Rune Scape
Their is many ways you can buy a cape. You can kill a certain NPC for one or you have the option of buying one in the grand exchange. To get the skill cape you need a 99 skill and 99k to buy a skill cape.
Yes, you have to be a member to obtain ANY skill capes in Runescape. Skill capes were intended to be made for recognizing members who reached level 99 in a skill, not really for non-members. Although, a common trick to obtain the skill cape while not cracking your budget, is to get a 1 month subscription to runescape, buy the skill cape, equip it to your character, and never take it off again. If you take it off, you can't put it back on once your membership is depleted. Although, this was a relatively old trick and I do not know if this still works.
to get to level 35 in a skill you need 22,406 xp. good luck with leveling up.
No. There are certain free skills (example: woodcutting) in which the master is still in the free-play area (the master north of falador) but there are some free skills (example: firemaking) in which the master of the skill is not in the free-play area (the master south of seers village.) Also, a "small" fee may be charged when you buy the skillcape. I.E. the mining skillcape costs 99,000 gp. Yes, you need to be a member to get any and all skillcapes.
you need to be a member and have a high hunting level to get a spotted cape.
You cant use it so you need to put it in the bank. If its with you it will be in your inventory which will be burden
you can find the person that gives you firemaking skillcape around camelot and catherby he is useally around the beehaive or near there talk to him and buy the cape and hood for 99000gp and you've got yourself a skill cape but as you know you need 99 firemaking to get and to wear the cape gl on finding him =)
the most uncommon skill cape is probably the "quest skill point cape" (need name confirmation) as one can only obtain it when one has sucessfully completed all quests and that new quests are always being added, making it difficult to obtain -------------------------------------------- Whoever posted the above information is wrong. The quest point skill cape is not even close to the rarest. When a new quest is added, the quest point skill cape stays in the inventory/bank of the person, so they will still have the cape despite not completing the newest quest. The rarest skillcape would be runecrafting.
You need members and you need to play the minigame Stealing Creation. They sacred clay items give double experience in the skill chosen. ^^
