I'm making a list of items by trawling through the scripts. Here's part I: the cloaks and robes. My comments are below.

(Formatting is a bit off, so apologies)
(Pls post if you found any typos)

Cloak/Robes %P Wt Value Specials
Cloak 2 2 5
Fine Cloak 4 2 20
Shaped Fiber Cloak 6 2 800 +5% to hit
Drakon Skin Cloak 8 2 5000 +5% to hit
Fyoraskin Cloak 4 2 400 +5%FiR
Coated Cloak 4 2 200 +5%EnR
Polar Fur Cloak 4 2 200 +5%CoR
Agent Cloak 3 2 2000 +1 BaM,MM,BlM,SC
Guardian Cloak 8 2 2000 +1 MeW,MiW,QA,Parry
Symbiotic Cloak 5 2 2000 +2 End, +1 MiW,QA,Parry
Infiltrator Cloak 2 2 500 +1 Ldr,Mch, +2% HER
Deadeye Cloak 2 2 800 +2 MiW
Robe 6 5 10
Fine Robe 10 5 40
Grounded Robe 6 5 200 +5% EnR
Shaper Robe 6 5 2000 +1 FiS,BaS,MaS
Specter Robe 10 5 2000 +5%EnR, +15%StR, -2%FiR, Cr +10%MER
Transference Robe 6 5 2000 -2 Str,Dex,End,
Cr +2 Str,Dex,End
Twice-Blessed Robe 10 5 3000 +2 BaM, Cr +15%MER

The best cloak/robe in the game appears to be the Symbiotic Cloak... it's basically a Guardian Cloak with 3% less armour, no +1 to Melee but +2 Endurance! Who wouldn't trade 3% armour and 1 melee for 2 Endurance? You also get the Symbiotic Cloaks earlier (or about the same time).

It might be a typo - Jeff prolly forgot to put a "import=10" in the scripts, in which case the Symbiotic Cloak becomes a more reasonable item (i.e. no bonus to Missle, QA or Parry)

The Specter Robe is also a great item, and you get it pretty early too. The rest are so-so... Shapers may like the Transference Robe.

Basically, all cloaks weigh 2 lbs, while robes weigh 5 lbs, so there's little to pick from there. And they can all be augmented by crystals.

For Agents, the Symbiotic Cloak isn't so hot. The best cloak, no suprise, is the Agent's Cloak.

Boosting all of your magic skills and spell craft adds so much damage that the mind boggles. And you need it to push your battle magic and spellcraft levels into the upper teens/ twenties for the critical damage returns.

My Hunter Guardian on the other hand, truly enjoyed his Symbiotic Cloak, but frequently used the Infiltrator's garmets.

Geneforge IV. Still no tasty vlish.

Somehow i feel that the robes were really better in G2, even thought his might not be the case.

Yesm what is with this Star Rateing anyway? What are you supposed to judge your vote on, and why is it called Karma?

I have 4 out of 5, which i guess is good even though i don't know why i have it.
