    Has anyone spotted the difference between the "new" Cloak of Power and the old one?
    New cloak ... like since R160 .
    Basically the new players that are working on this cloak will get level 40 cloak with stats same to upgraded level 50 cloak. I was checking my DK and here are the new stats for the cloak

    and these are the old stats

    [​IMG]

    The new stats are almost identical to the old cloak upgraded to level 50

    Like it wasn't enough that we had to play months in PW to get the cloak ... and now the new players can get it from level 40 maps ... but they had to put more salt into the wound. They raised the stats of the new cloaks ... and they are not retroactive ... meaning our old cloaks are still with the old stats.
    Well done BP ... another low move towards your "beloved loyal players".

    Amazing new reworked stellar event and now I see this.
    Double Disappointment package from Dying DSO.

    What really bothers me is that they don't even have the guts to make a statement about this kind of changes, nor have the consideration to scale the already existing cloaks to match these new values.

    I guess they have no clue about this. Until someone reads what Traki found.

    Oh, I'm already seein an announcement saying it was a bug and that was not the intention of the devs to change the cloak.

    Where is the OA? I didn't see it, nor did I see it listed in "Know Issues."

    He's actually using sarcasm "predicting" about it, I thought the same as you at first.

    Apparently this change came with this release (?), since I got the cloak of power after the quest changed and it still has the old stats.

    I'm really craving for the level 50 cloak, a cloak worht fighting for and a real challenge.

    Ah, my sarcasm detector must be broken or in need of re-calibration... it is usually very accurate.

    At the end it turns out that they raised up the stats for all cloaks ...

    They downgraded the white cape from 90 hp to 35 in R161_12 :|

    I hate how obnoxiously and irritatingly long the cloak quests are, and the worst part is just how useless most of the cloaks are. None of the cloaks from the quests were worth it until the last one. Unless you consider the melt value, lol.

    Damn, now I'm currently wasting time gathering gold to free the 3 inventory slots that the parts occupy.
    Does anyone know how can I gather the 1000 gold faster?
    I'm currently doing Sigrismarr and Temple Sector runs, with around 25-50 gold per day.

    Sell all green and blue items; sell even extraordinaries if you have to do that.

    I'm currently selling almost everything.
    Gathering items from 20 silver up (mostly rings and amulets) in Temple Sector, and almost all Sigrismarr drops.

    But it's still not retroactive, is it? I'm pretty sure my stats haven't changed.

    Its retroactive, I believe. At least, my DK's 1000g cloak has the new higher stats that trak posted above.

    My dwarf also appears to have higher stats - but the armor and hp are lower than my dks cloak.

    In either case, not using the cloak as I am using the full warlord set for both characters.

    Hello.

    I am currently working on getting the last cloak; if I cancel the quest and start it over again, will I get the new one?

    You don't need to cancel the quest, as stated above and by BP, all the cloaks were scaled to the new values, you'll get the same cloak as everyone else from your current quest.

    I'm asking because it shows lower values for me (compared to the ones shown in the screenshot posted by trakilaki), so it doesn't seem like I'm getting the same cloak as everyone else.
