kaleidocera cape

Cerata pendulate on the cape like prism grass of a windy meadow. They mirror rich hues in cerulean, ruby, star orchid, and void; together they shine to resplendent effect.

A kaleidocera cape is one part of a broader set of kaleidocera equipment. It is notable for having the highest resistances of any back equipment available in Caves of Qud.

Kaleidocera Equipment

This section is an excerpt from Kaleidocera krakows#Kaleidocera Equipment.

Kaleidocera equipment, including the kaleidocera cape, kaleidocera muffs, and kaleidocera krakows, have some of the highest all-around resistance values of any equipment in the game. Each piece of equipment also grants a bonus to Ego and a small chance to refract light-based attacks.

Kaleidocera equipment can be obtained by butchering the corpse of a kaleidoslug. However, the kaleidoslug has only a 6% chance of dropping a corpse when it is killed. Once a corpse is obtained, butchering the corpse guarantees one piece of kaleidocera equipment, but the specific piece of equipment obtained is random - each has a 1-in-3 chance of being butchered from the corpse.
