A '''robe of the Archmagi''' acts as an enhancer for all spells, increasing your [[spell power]]. However, it does not make them any easier to cast or reduce your [[spell hunger]].

==Strategy==
These are good for mid-game spellcasters, although later on, once your spell skills are higher and spells start hitting the power cap, you may want to replace it with a robe of [[resistance]].

This robe is particularly useful for those using [[Hexes]], due to the binary nature of that school: conjurers and the like with more spell power may simply deal a few more damage per hit, but for enchanters, this robe can make the difference between the spell succeeding or failing entirely.

==History==
In earlier versions of ''Crawl'', this robe reduced XP gain to 1/4 of normal, making it nearly useless for most characters. This effect was removed as of [[0.8]].
