The Mad Mage's Maulers[1] are respectably strong. Melee characters can deal with enemies one at a time, giving a pretty large buff to their first hit. Characters in a comfortable enough situation can pillar dance to continuously renew the damage buff.
For characters without such brutish tendencies, MP regeneration is quite useful, even with a minor Int penalty. Just be sure not to hit an enemy! Mages can inscribe their wielded item with !a in order to force a confirmation whenever you attack. Hybrids finding these gloves could dedicate to one way or the other, or simply not touch them.
Unlike normal gloves of infusion, Djinn cannot trigger the Mad Mage's Maulers, as the effect would instantly kill them. For Djinn, these are simply +3 gloves with an intelligence penalty.
