With a massive boost to every aspect of spellcasting, the robe of Folly[1] is a tempting piece of armour for any spellcaster. An encounter with an opponent capable of banishing or paralysing you can very easily get you killed, and even confusion can be devastating. For any player trying to win, this item should very much be avoided. But casual players might enjoy the absolute carnage the robe enables, especially with now-spammable long range spells such as Ozocubu's Refrigeration. Just don't be surprised when this robe becomes your folly.
Note that the Lair and some Lair rune branches (the Spider's Nest, Snake Pit, and Shoals) do not have immediately threatening enchantments (mesmerisation, for example, is still hard to deal with) - barring uniques who could very well spawn to spite you.
