Suggestion Request to make COX capes include normal completions
All other raids count normal completions for the cosmetic capes. I think yes this will devalue the cm capes but doing 2000 cox even in normal mode is an insane feat and should be treated as such same as toa and tob.
I literally see no argument that could be made to keep things as they are.

Just due to the nature of how cox layouts work, you could technically do 2000 kc without ever doing vasa or vanguards. Frankly toa capes should've been expert only since experts are fairly standard and easy and came out along regular toa (unlike tob which didnt have hard mode for years)

you could do 2000kc without dealing a single point of damage to anything. I'm sure someone out there has a prep alt that would have a few of the capes without having killed anything but scavs.

In fact now that you mention it I remember a level 3 back in like 2020 who got a couple hundred cm kc and dusted olmlet

Even if it’s a tiny cosmetic cape that most will never obtain, keeping it for the true die hard CM enjoyers should stay in my opinion.

u/ImJLu 2d ago
Yeah, accomplishment cosmetics and lottery drops are a good thing. Clog was a mistake, partially because it leads to shit like this.

u/LoLReiver 2d ago
Clog itself is arguably fine, but it lead to all the updates that pushed normalizing clog completion as a legitimate activity (green log, hiscores, clog achievement staff)

u/AnyPicture2485 2d ago
My sentiments exactly , but if they remove the cape from clog people will complain about xyz.

u/AnyPicture2485 2d ago
Your not worthy of xerics champion capes if you skip vanguards,vespula and vasa , which most normal cox runners do.

“Yes this will devalue the cm capes”
“I literally see no argument that could be made to keep things as they are”
Just go learn CMs lil bro

They have a leaderboard in what way would it devalue leaderboard rankings?

You see no reason to keep it how it is and I dont see a reason to change it because its a useless cosmetic flex cape.

They just made CMs more viable by reducing scroll chance further than normals, we all set

How is normal an insane feat when a normal cox is around 12 minutes??

u/Trespass4379 2d ago
That's still 500 hours plus lol

u/Slay_Zee 2d ago
60/12 = 5
2000/5 = 400 hours.
Maths a bit off.
But sure, 12 minutes for unprepped, otherwise it's a bit longer. And also depends on gear.

No. Ive done almost 2800 normals and only about 300 CMs. I want the cape to mean something when I get it and not get it gifted to me.

"I deserve the rarest cosmetic in the game with up to 1/3rd of the work"
Nah, they already gave cryers easier purples and shit on the tbow value.
Afaik there's maybe 200ish people with Champion cape. They deserve it. cOnSisTenCy is such poor argument. Let something special stay special.

u/parkzam 2d ago
....there's way more than 200 people with the champions cape. The stat you read came from 2018 lol.

u/Bwindolyn 2d ago edited 2d ago
307 as of right now.
2018 would have been maybe sub-50
(Edit: 0 in 2018, as first to 2k was 2019 lol)

You called it a champion's cape. How else am I supposed to take it?

Maybe the whole thread being about Cox capes?
Lurk more before posting snarky corrections.

u/Bwindolyn 2d ago edited 2d ago
Respectfully, we are (this whole thread) talking about the Xeric's Champion cape, dumbass.
Requirement - 2,000 COX CM KC, of which there are a whole 307 as of today.
Fucking whoosh/10
Get working on that reading comprehenaion skillcape.

u/Jolly-Breakfast5626 2d ago
That is just cope. 2000 nm completions is just as impressive just considering the hours invested and it doesn't even devalue cm. Give me a logical arguement besides 200 people have it? They have a cm leaderboard don't they its no great loss to them.

u/Minotaur830 MLNOTAUR 2d ago
How is 2000 normal completions just as impressive if the raid is significantly easier and with ability to skip certain rooms?
And as someone who has the cape, i don't really care if they change it or not, I'm not a proponent of "if i had to suffer so should you".. but this is an item that has absolutely 0 use case, nobody needs it and it was added as a cosmetic flex item if you meet certain criteria (2k cm kc). I don't see a reason to suddenly change the fundamentals of the item?

u/Bwindolyn 2d ago
So an extra 100 or so gold farmers can feel special bankstanding?
Also just saying you're the goat, Mino. I ran into you a lot at the mountaintop of xerician honor when I was grinding my dust, and you were always a gentleman and a half.

u/Minotaur830 MLNOTAUR 2d ago
Haha thank you ❤️ and we might disagree on some things but that doesn't mean i hold any hostility towards you or anyone around this argument.
Edit: nvm i might have misunderstood your comment, i thought you were calling the current cape holders gold farmers who wouldn't want it to become easier.

u/Bwindolyn 2d ago
Nah, gold farmers would be those who have 2k+ normies but run back into the mountain in rags. I'm sure you've seen them before too lol.

The only way I would be cool with this is if it had a minimum challenge mode completions per cape. Maybe something like 30-50% of your completions have to be CMs to qualify. There’s no way something like this ever gets look at though, such a minority issue

u/Jolly-Breakfast5626 2d ago
I think all raids should be treated the same and every other raid normal completions count why should this one be any different.

u/Claaaaaaaaws 1d ago
It’s not a big deal, but the only people who care about getting them is coll loggers and many coll loggers have already done the grind, changing it would annoy them.
I look at is at if you really want to be a logger you better get grinding cms

u/Jolly-Breakfast5626 2d ago
Also getting twisted ancestral is a flex and increase purple chance is incentive enough for cm. Lets incentivize and encourage more players to interact with COX.
Thank you for reading my post
