The cloak of displacement is an item that appears in NetHack.

Generation

All non-elven Rangers start the game with a +2 cloak of displacement; elven Rangers are instead given a +2 elven cloak.[1]

Description

When worn, the cloak of displacement provides MC1 and displacement; putting on or taking off the cloak will auto-identify it if you can see yourself or are able to sense monsters, and you are not currently engulfed.

A user has suggested improving this page or section as follows:

"Create a strategy section."
