Found only by killing the Enchantress, a suit of faerie dragon armour's usefulness is entirely dependent on what the RNG decides to generate. As a mundane +6 mottled dragon armour is already a very effective piece of equipment, however, it doesn't take terribly much to make this item worth considering. If you should happen to encounter the Enchantress in a given game, don't overlook this armour until you've actually seen what properties it has to offer. A +7 mottled dragon armour with clarity, rF++, and rElec is nothing to sneeze at.
