A cloak of magic resistance (CoMR) provides MC3 and magic resistance. Wear this, and you can stop worrying about the nastier traps, and become immune to any wand of striking or magic missiles fired by an enemy.

A Wizard's starting inventory always contains a cloak of magic resistance, but all other characters must identify the item during the course of the game.

Identification

The cloak of magic resistance is easily identified by wearing it and stepping onto a magic trap, polymorph trap, teleportation trap, or being subject to a wand of striking. Even so, it never self-identifies.
