Cloak Buff
Cloak Buff is a status effect in Remixed Pixel Dungeon that provides temporary invisibility. It's applied by the Cloak Spell.
Description
The Cloak Buff renders the affected character invisible to enemies, greatly reducing the chances of being detected. This buff is essential for stealth-based gameplay, especially for the Rogue and related subclasses.
Effects
- Invisibility: Makes the character invisible to enemies (shown as “INVISIBLE” status)
- Stealth Bonus: Provides a stealth bonus calculated as: Caster's skill level + caster's level / 4
- Duration: Lasts for a specific duration based on the caster's skill level (caster's skill level * 5 turns)
- Automatic Expiration: The buff detaches automatically when it expires
Mechanics
- Character appears with invisible status effect
- Cannot be applied if the caster has visible enemies nearby
- The invisibility automatically expires after the duration period
- The spell has a cooldown of 20 turns
Classes
- Rogue - Primary class that benefits from this buff
- Assassin - May have enhanced use of stealth mechanics
- Other classes that can access Cloak Spell
Strategy
- Use when no enemies are in sight to avoid triggering the failure message
- Plan movement carefully as the invisibility has a limited duration
- Use to escape from groups of enemies or dangerous areas
- Combine with other stealth-based strategies for maximum utility
- The spell has a significant cooldown, so use it strategically
