It is all very well some of you guys saying 'Why use this item when you can have another with 500 Charisma and 200 Dex plus a get out of jail card' but not everyone has unlimited money and acess to the whole shopping list :)
I am an untwinked level 17 Mage with no access to the Bazaar so finding one of these in West Commonlands for 210pp was a cause for celebration. I have managed to find reasonable enhanced items (ie extra int or save magic whatever) for every slot except the face. It was only last week that I managed to upgrade from a 1 AC cloth veil to a 2 AC silk veil and that was only because I made it myself :) As a find it ranks just behind getting an Oracle Robe for 47pp from a vendor.
