The infernal cape is the most powerful melee cape in terms of overall bonuses, awarded for defeating TzKal-Zuk in the Inferno. It surpasses its predecessor, the fire cape, boasting greater melee attack and strength bonuses, along with slightly higher defensive bonuses. In spite of this, it is still surpassed by the Ardougne cloaks 3 and 4 in stab attack and prayer bonuses, and by the mythical cape in crush attack.

An infernal cape can be exchanged for a chance of obtaining the Jal-nib-rek pet by speaking to TzHaar-Ket-Keh. Like killing TzKal-Zuk, there is a 1/100 chance of obtaining the pet this way. If the player already has the pet, capes cannot be exchanged.

An infernal cape can be combined with the max cape to change its appearance by turning it into the infernal max cape.

As of 1 August 2026, there are 170,755 accounts that have obtained an infernal cape.

If the player dies a PvP death at level 20 Wilderness or below and the item is unprotected, it will remain in the player's inventory; however, the item will be in a broken, unusable state and must be repaired by using it on Perdu and paying him 225,000 coins.

If the player dies a PvP death above level 20 Wilderness and the item is unprotected, it will be converted to coins. To prevent this, a Trouver parchment and a payment of 500,000 coins can be given to Perdu in order to permanently lock the item. The locked item will remain in the player's inventory; however, the item will be in a mangled, unusable state and must be repaired by using it on Perdu and paying him 500,000 coins.

While equipping the fire cape will grant players the fiery attribute and will therefore make them susceptible to the extra damage from the special effect of pearl bolts (e), the infernal cape does not grant this attribute.^[1]

This item can be stored in the cape rack of a costume room.

The infernal cape is very popular for many forms of melee combat and is often the cape of choice. In certain scenarios, other capes may be preferred for their higher accuracy bonuses, higher Prayer bonus, or for being easier to obtain or replace.

• Prior to an unknown update, defeating TzKal-Zuk with a full inventory resulted in the infernal cape and tokkul not being given to the player at all. However, the cape's collection log slot would still be unlocked. Currently, doing so results in both being placed on the ground for the player to pick up.
  • If TzKal-Zuk is defeated with only one inventory slot open, the infernal cape will be given to the player, but their tokkul will be dropped on the ground.
