Comp Cape Design Update

Original Post

Hello all,

We've heard your feedback and updated the current live design. rs.game/compdesign

As a TL:DR here's what we've changed.

You've shown your passion and appreciation for the current appearances of Max, Quest and Master Quest capes. We're keeping their appearances in game, with the following tweaks to the overall design.

The Max Cape and Skill T1 cape will be separate capes. The max cape is staying as it currently is. Visually we're not changing it and it'll still be re-colourable. The skills T1 cape requirements may have things outside the remit of just having 99 stats.
The Quest and Master Quest cape appearances are staying in-game. We'll either,
- Bring them into the new system so they'll become the Lore T1 & Lore T3 capes (Although they'll probably keep their current names),
- Or, we'll make NEW Lore T1,T2 & T3 capes and if you've unlocked the T1/T3 Lore capes you'll unlock the current visuals of the Quest / Master Quest capes as cosmetic overrides.

You've shown us that having stats on any of the T1 achievements is too different from and too lenient in comparison to how Comp currently is.

As a result we're also tweaking the T1 benefits. The passive stats will only exist on the Combat T1 cape (Or be split between T1 and T2 depending where certain boss requirements sit). We're also looking to add some form of benefit for the Skills T1 & Lore T1 capes.

We love your feedback and will continue to shape this update with you. If you like, dislike, worry about or have an idea or opinion on anything here, please tell us. <3

/u/JagexTomb can you please tell us if the stat bonuses will be same as current comp cape? What i mean is, when we have passive boost unlocked and another cape, will we have the same stats as current comp cape (i.e. 43 in mage, rnage or melee)? Also, will there be a hybrid cape that will have at least similiar stats as current comp cape with the boost?

It's not 100% final by any means right now, currently we don't have a definitive answer to this question, but of course we will come to answer this at some point.

I don't know if the passives will be the exact same as current comp or not, or if Max cape keeps its stats/has them reduced. But we'll definitely try and do what is right and what the players lean towards as long as Balancing/Combat councils allow and as long as it leaves the cape slot still open to new additions (we don't want to be blocked from adding new Capes with good stats in the future basically like we are currently.)

It is still not clear from the live design, what kind of benefits having tier 1 comp gives, you just state that tier 2 and 3 comp won't give anything extra. Doesn't sound like you give us extra stats from getting comp tier 1, so what is it?

Currently those capes are just cosmetic, I see where you're coming from with it not being clear and i agree about the wording. I believe currently even T1 Comp will just be cosmetic, with the benefits actually coming from getting all the T1 achievements first, since they are all required for having comp. (please remember none of this is final though :) )

So this makes Max cape + Comp Passive the best cape then? No need to reget the kiln capes?

I think this answers your question? https://www.reddit.com/r/runescape/comments/b1f3tl/comp_cape_design_update/eil8xdv/

I helped my ex gf max out. Then I bought her some buyables, and after she got trim comp, she left me because she became elitist, and i was just a rich skiller. Oh yeah and hated it that im a huge trump supporter ( i love my country more then you im glad u left) Without her by my side, i increased my xp per hour, i retained all of my wealth and i made a lot more because she wasn't always there trying to take it from me. I'm sure she found a guy with a spike trap hair cut to make her happy for a few minutes while they dance at the max guild and pre tend that everyone there wishes they could be them, when in fact they are cringing inside when they read their examine text that says something like xx love my cute pixel pocket kitty, while also noticing that those two gross looking, typical edaters are wearing matching outfits. They thank themselves, and hope they never end up like that.

How about replying to players concerns on the thread you (jmods) set up instead of this.

Im reading through the comments as they come in. I can’t reply to every single comment in here look at how many there are, regardless it’d be lots of copy/paste comments anyway since so many are similar. The feedback is being collated and reviewed...
