Desirability

Easily the worst artefact in the game. It is quite dangerous to wear for any period of time, given its teleportitis and its prevention of spellcasting. And due to its randomized appearance, wearing any unidentified randart robe always poses a risk. Make sure you have scrolls of remove curse handy.

History

Prior to 0.12, the Robe of Misfortune was even more dangerous to wear, as it would increase your magical contamination while you wore it. However, since its contamination was gradual, it was far less dangerous to try on if you had a scroll of remove curse handy.
