Today omw to UP to camp some elysians for gear for my friends alt I walked in and saw RC gettin beat down in the entryway by a total of 6 peeps. I have raided RC before but I never truly thought him to be a 1 group deal. However they maged quite easily with an uber healer and slower and tank etc. Dropped the wicked mail for them... Needless to say I was impressed. He hit me for 740 a pop last time and that tends to leave big bruises on a caster.

Aye, if you want this, you're better grow balls and organize the raid for it. You don't just LFG in UP and hope that the named guy spawns like in lower level zones. You gather the troops and guide them.

I am a wizard and after I seen this I no longer want White Dragonscale Cloak. This here has nice resists, int, mana, and dex. Dex is important of course for those nasty interrupts.
There is a common misconception in your post. DEX does not help prevent interupts. In fact, DEX does almost nothing good for a wizard. The only effects it has in the game are to increase the rate at which you learn offensive melee skills and also a VERY tiny increase in proc-rate for melee weapons.
BTW, the WDS now has dam-3, which makes it far and away more desirable than this cloak regardless of the stats on either one.
DEX has a very great influence on procs. Whoever said DEX makes a very small difference obviously has not seen the difference an extra 100-200 DEX can make.
DEX is an extremely easy stat to buff too; Just use NDT or Fo7. Almost all groups will have either a chanter or a shaman.
Depending on a wizards level and damage output relative to the tanks aggro holding capacity, it is often perfectly safe for a wizard to stand behind the mob and proc away at it. Whether sitting still on horse might be more beneficial overall is arguable, though.
Dex helps just as much as any other stat per point..... My Dex is around 300...I proc like mad...
Im not a Wizard, but ive had several tell me that Dex helps on thier spell Crits, I believe the only thing that helps on interrupts is your channeling...and the AAs that help channeling..
This is obviously a good cloak for anyone....and as a Beastlord its one of the better ones you can get, thats fairly easy to obtain...Id get 146HPs from it, and 95Mana....
The quest cloak has imp dmg 3. Any decent nuker would go for it I guess. Moot point though since the quest no longer uses the WDS, but the white dragon hide. A bard would simply love this cloak because it's good for her.

This has three classes written all over it. SK, Wizard, Bard. Although I have a feeling the bards would give this up in exchange for a white dragon scale. I also have a feeling an SK would give this up for a CoF.
Awesome cloak..just wish the wis was 15 also..guess being a Cleric im a wisdom junkie :o) my wis is not bad its 219 unbuffed(which is not uber) but this cloak would make it better if it had 15wis hehe..either way sweet cloak.. well good hunting and safe journey to all.
Looks to me like another one of those items that would be good for pretty much all/all. As a high elf paladin I see this as very usefull since it gives lots of stamina and dex (which I am particualrly lacking in), allowing for me to focus on easier to get str stuff for the rest of my gear. Heh the wis I suppose is a nice bonus to a paladin, although as a high elf with this and some other items I have it would be ridiculously high for a melee lol. Would be nice for Sk's too.
look at this baby has int sta hp and mana i would have to say would be very uber for a necro as high end necros need hp and sta more than mana of int but toss in the fact that it has int and mana and very uber for the necro

this cloak would serve well for any class, but favors more than just int casters. rogues, monks, and shadow knights would get a very nice boots from this as well.
