Desirability

The robe of Augmentation[1] provides decent defense (for a robe) and a few stat boosts. While the stats are helpful, for most characters, the boosts aren't that impactful. Any character may prefer an armour with higher defense and/or resistances. Casters in particular will likely prefer a robe of the Archmagi, for its larger spellpower boost.

This artefact is more likely to spawn in the early game, where it is more likely to be useful (and less likely for you to find alternatives).

History

  • This item was made more explicitly likely to spawn in the early-game in 0.28.
