Attack: unlimited access to cyclopes is a decent idea but it defeats the purpose of wearing a fire cape which gives better str bonus/defensive stats. all capes should act accordingly if it's a melee stat based skill it needs to benefit just that. and a skilling skill needs to be beneficial for that purpose. You want them to have appeal? How about you come up with a basic ability like you've done for all the capes (a lot could be improved tbh...) and grant the ability to imbue them at nightmare zone for added benefits i.e.: (Attack cape grants access to cyclopes without any tokens but imbued it adds a +4-8 attack bonus plus the ability to gain access without tokens. and it doesn't have to be a bonus because people don't skill for stat bonuses.) for skilling capes you need to go in the direction of what benefits that skill to make people really slave to get the 99 and why is that 99 A MUST GET? For fletching instead of oh hey here's a knife. ( I don't even have 99 fletching, and a free knife wouldn't motivate me to get it...-.-.) An awesome idea would be being able to fletch noted logs into noted longbow (u)'s. Or having a chance to split the log I.E: (I just put my sweet fletching cape on trying my new bonus out I'm fletching magic longbow (u)'s. and I have a knife and 27 magic logs in my invo, But as I'm fletching those 27 logs i notice in my chat box a message saying EXAMPLE: something along the lines of "you're such a master fletcher you crafted two magic longbow (u)'s instead of one!" this extra Magic long bow (u) gets automatically deposited into your bank. and if your flething cape is imbued from nightmare zone you have a higher chance of splitting a log and all longbows fletched in your invo automatically go into your bank. Yeah I have a bunch more ideas for other capes But only under 00 characters left so I will post more ideas. These really need to be improved though they suck really bad as they are.

Make smithing worth getting..... I am rocking my 99 smithing cape and doing it the super slow way of using a furnace... lets say the falador furnace. Okay so I notice as i am smithing a rune bar it made me two rune bars instead of one, wow sweet this 99 was totally worth getting. I decided to get it imbued to check out the superior stat bonus and go about smithing just how I was and all of a sudden I notice all my bars take half the coal and I just got another bar for the cost of making one! It didn't happen every trip but out of 1000 runite ores I averaged 40 extra runite bars!

You devs really need to make the skills worth getting to 99. This^ would motivate me to get 99. And you need to incorporate nightmare zone into this whole scene making a basic skillcape bonus and an advanced skill cape bonus. And for all of the skillers in the game, because not everyone can do nmz maybe incorporate a new way in the game for skillers to gain nmz points. I think a really good idea would be a new skiller nightmare zone granting no significant bonus to exp gained, but for training that skill in nmz you gain points. maybe have an area in "skiller nmz" that acts like brimhaven agility course and you gain * amount of tickets and at the end the tickets automatically turn into nmz points.

for fishing you could make a new addition to the game. Normally fishing you only catch fish but with the new basic fishing cape you have a 1/10,000 chance to catch a really rare item and give a funny message saying something along the lines like "wow I just caught a stone ring... who would throw this into the ocean?..." and with the advanced imbued fishing cape you could have the chances of catching a rare item instead of a fish drop to 1/6,000. and just to be jagex because we've all been boned by jagex at some point, have a few garbage items thrown into the item list such as an "old boot" , "monkey nuts" most 2002+ players would get a kick from catching monkey nuts considering the really old scam "selling monkey nuts 3m///// Buying monkey nuts 10m" you know just to keep it balanced so it motivates you to keep going, but you can get slapped in the face, just like doing an elite clue and only getting 30k. :3.
