'''The Mantle of Knowledge''' was the [[Monk]] [[quest artifact]] in [[NetHack Plus]] and [[SLASH 6]]. Its base item was a [[helm of brilliance]].

In addition to increasing the wearer's [[wisdom]] and [[intelligence]], as a helm of brilliance, the Mantle granted [[magic resistance]] and [[extrinsic]] [[ESP]] while carried. When [[invoke|invoked]], the Mantle boosted the user's [[energy]], similar to [[the Mitre of Holiness]].

==Legacy==
When the Monk role was first included in [[vanilla]], in [[NetHack 3.3.0]], the quest artifact was the arguably more desirable [[Eyes of the Overworld]], which grant a new property: [[astral vision]]. The earliest versions of [[SLASH'EM]] adapted the 3.3.0 code, so the Mantle was supplanted by the Eyes in the [[SLASH]] lineage as well.

Since then no variant based on [[NetHack]] or [[SLASH'EM]] has included the Mantle.
