Reaper should just be moved to trim, all it does now is encourage sketchy leech services to run, it has nothing to do with "being good" if it can all be leeched, and maybe add sandy and salty to trim?

Expert is just as misleading as completionist imo. If the requirements are of similar nature (i.e. kill all bosses once), then it hardly qualifies you as an expert. You can't really kill something once or engage with something the first time and be an immediate expert unless you have savant-like abilities.

I mean, yeah, it's just a name and maybe shouldn't be taken literally. But say somebody new at the game comes and takes advice from someone with this cape. To the noob, they'd think they're an expert and thus take their advice as "amazing" when it might not be because as mentioned previously, doing something once or for a short amount of time is not enough to become an expert at something. The name then becomes just as meaningless as the current name does because it fails to represent what its name suggests.

I think the capes do need a new name. The challenge is coming up with an appropriate name that actually makes sense and cannot be questioned. Just like how no one argues what Max cape is.

If it proves too difficult to come up with a more fitting name, then it's best to just leave it as is and instead just focus on the requirements the two capes have. Hopefully the new cape names get polled lol. I don't really like 'Expertise' either...

Success is not final, failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts.

Judging by the talks on the Discord, there will most likely be a separate "PvM Master Cape" with new and different requirements added to achieve it.

I agree that PVMers shouldn't have to comp to get best in slot, but I disagree that completionists should have those benefits taken away from lack of a pvm requirement. I'm also 100% opposed of any group bosses being on any requirement, including any future pvm cape.

Off topic... I think retroactively adding requirements is an excellent place to start. First thing that comes to mind is rebuilding edgeville. It seems more like an actual miniquest that should be added to reqs, rather than some sort of post quest reward for MQC.
