The cloak only affects spells that damage the wearer physically, not mentally. Similarly it does not affect domination, chaos etc and so it is not perfect but stii waaaaaaaay to powerful It should a one use a day item, maybe they screwed up?

The cloak is found on a dead suahagin(?) priestess you kill in the underwater city whilst wandering around. If you haven't found the city, it is because you must have chosen the portal exit from Spellhold, which bypasses it. Sorry, no going back now unless you saved. Next time leave with Saemon and wear your scuba gear

I thought so...I walked through that beholder lair with the cloak like i was king shit, eye tyrants dropping like flies, and ran into those flayers which then flayed my brains out.

On my first few runs through the game, I didn't really pay much heed to the cloak, I just stuck it on one of my mages and continued. After reading this, I decided to do a test.

I loaded up a game and put the cloak on a fighter, then moved the fighter away from the group to an empty area, and used the cheat codes to gate in 10 hostile Beholders. Pretty neat to see the beholders killing themselves, but after around 7 beholders dropped dead, they all started casting Imprision, and that got my fighter. Ugh.

Considering that there's only one in the game, I don't think it's too powerful. Now, if it reflected weapon damage, then it would be too powerful.
