+2 cloak

-2 slaying

+30 Stealth
Can be evoked to emit clouds of fog

Desirability

Quite useful for stabbers, but some characters may wish to use something without the -2 to damage and accuracy. That being said, being able to generate clouds of smoke on demand is occasionally crucial for escaping dangerous ranged opponents, particularly if you're a fast character.

History

Prior to 0.15, this cloak only penalized damage (-3), not accuracy, and provided a slightly higher stealth bonus.

Prior to 0.12, this cloak provided small bonuses to EV and dexterity, as well as evocable invisibility and levitation, but lacked the fog effect.

Prior to 0.10, the -3 damage slaying penalty was much more severe, as slaying bonuses and penalties were multiplied by your skills.
