This week we focus on Master Skillcape Perks! A while back we asked you all for ideas/suggestions of what perks to add for each 120 skill as well as improving some of the 99 skillcape perks and here's what we've done!

Skillcape Perks changed

Agility - No longer fail any agility obstacles (this has been rolled out to work on every obstacle in game)

Constitution - Retains the current effect, but the healing now continues to work in combat

Construction - Has a chance to save planks when building in your player-owned house

Crafting - Provides a chance to cut all gems in your inventory at once and provides unlimited thread

Divination - Wisps will now last a fixed amount of time when first harvested from

Firemaking - Fire spirits give better rewards and will act as a light source

Fletching - Provides a chance to make extra bolts, arrows and darts

Hunter - Increases the effective range of your traps by 2 tiles

Prayer - Retains the current effect, but acts like a First-Age Cape if owned

Thieving - All drops are noted, and stacks with Ardougne Cape if owned

Master Skillcape Perks

Invention - Gives an increased chance of receiving uncommon and rare components when disassembling

Dungeoneering - A chance to choose which boss you face; increased chance of lore drops inside Daemonheim and Elite Dungeons; and the ability to wear your cape inside Daemonheim

Slayer - Gives a chance (20%) to choose your task from a Slayer master each time you receive a new one

Master Quest Cape - Brings a range of lore-related teleports into a single item, allowing you to teleport to the Legends' Guild, the World Gate, Varrock Museum, the Empty Throne Room and several more
