I am now lvl79, i am just about to hit 80 . Already have the mats for hook and thorn.
But i want to ask should i wait and first get the robe with TM69 and then hit 80.
There is also 1 problem,dont have much money to pay for TM69 and it will take a long time to find it for free.
Is TM79 much more expensive,and is it hard to find someone to do it.

    You're from our server I see.

    Ask in your faction, you may discover people doing it. We did in ours, ran quite a few runs for faction mates (we did ours ourselves at lvl 90).

    If you get a good squad for yourself, you can make TM79 easy.

    TM69 is cheaper, easier, and thus more common and popular.

    TM79 depends a bit on if you can get people with a bit more skill. If bought, it's also more expensive. The difference in stats and grade doesn't justify it IMO unless you're doing runs for free or at a discount.

    I would go with 69 as it's more common and easier to find squads for.

    There isn't a real advantage on getting the 79 cape.

    The extra stats are mostly irrelevant, the gains from refine rate minimal (112 hp at +12), the shards that you could put it in it aren't made by people are mostly come from Treasure Hunter and it still costs you more.

    Heck, I've got a sin that looks like this and I'm still using the Energetic Robe: Wraithgate I got back when I was 80.
    I am Olba. Not Ol, not Baze nor Blaze. And even less would I go by Olblaze. Please, take a second to read a person's username.
    If you see b:cute be sure to take a second, calm look at anything I said.

    Get the wraithgate cape before you level. It's awesome, and imo the few more stats and better refines on the lunar one aren't worth it until way later on when you got money to spare or get extremely lucky.

    I wasn't ever planning on spending 50mil for a lunar cape either, but someone held a wc quiz and being me I love riddles. b:shutup

    Funny, everyone I've talked to has said that they found TM79 runs to generally be a lot easier. It can be done simply with a decent squad and it's a lot of fun once things work out.
    Talk to people in your faction. It's a better cape all around so why not aim for it? People here say it's not worth for the extra stats...but they are extra stats and you won't be changing that cape for quite some time.

    Give it some thought. People should do more runs in the game instead of just buying them.

    TM69 is easier to find someone selling it, but for free you have to be lucky finding a nice person in your faction. TM79 can be possible to find squads for, but I don't see many solo that one for lower lvls. In the case of doing it in squad, it's usually alts with above average gear. I doubt you'll enter easily as you don't seem to be a rich guy, so I suspect your gear to be just average (no offence intended). It seems you don't have the possibility to go for TM lunar cape directly at 90.

    With all that, I'd recommand to either wait or get an alt to 60 on same account, before starting to lvl.

    Just the increased durability is worth getting a TM lunar if you ask me. All TM capes, including lunar, have extremely crappy durability except for AA toons. It may not seem like that much, but it's extremely frustrating if a cape doesn't even last 1 trial or delta. Especially since it makes the +stat bonus on all stats pretty much worthless if you can't use them to attribute more efficiently.

    Ofc TM79 is better, but the difference is not worth it in the supposition that you will get TM lunar eventually, and you won't put super shards/refines on gear till then. Refine and shard advantage are inexistant as you won't refine high and/or put max grade shards in. It's just a tiny few stats, that you probably won't have much reason to optimize till you got what you consider your "end game gear". OP is 80, he could change the cape at 90 already for the lunar version that is usually considered "optimal".

    TM69 is easier to buy because it's much easier to solo for a lvl100+ (less runner mobs, less hp on mobs, shorter distance,...). TM79 is easier to do for a squad though, mainly because those bosses are so much easier and because the lvl requirement matches better gear (gear that ppl do invest more into).
