Gameplay[]
Unlike the Non-Detection spell, the Non-Detection provided by this cloak is not of the Illusionary protections type.
As this cloak has a differently coded Non-Detection effect than the spell, and as the cloak provides the user with an "always on" power, this means that the cloak has some benefits for certain player classes and item users.
A player with the equipped Staff of the Magi will remain invisible even if subjected to any invisibility removing spell effect, such as Oracle, True Sight or True Seeing.
The same benefit can be had from invisibility applied from the Dagger of the Star.
A player who has the ability to become hidden through Stealth, such as a rogue, Monk or Bounty Hunter will gain additional protection with this cloak equipped. These classes/kits who are successfully hidden will resist being exposed from spell casting opponents using spells such as Oracle and True sight.
This cloak is superior in every way to the spell version of Non-Detection.
It does not protect against enemies who can innately See the invisible.
