Generation

Master mind flayers have a 110 chance of generating with a robe of power.[1] Aligned priests, high priests, the Arch Priest, and player monster priests may also generate with a robe of power.[2][3]

While worn, the robe of power confers 1 base AC and lowers spellcasting failure rates.

Strategy

While it does not boost spellcasting success to the same rate as a robe does in vanilla NetHack, the robe of power is still quite desirable for Monks seeking out body armor.
