11Overview22The Desert Marauder's Cloak is a Cloak in Crimson Desert that combines solid defense with the ability to disguise the wearer as a member of the Helms faction. At 5 DEF, it is one of the highest-defense cloaks available, and its Ice Resistance Lv.3 provides strong protection against cold-based attacks. The Helms Disguise effect allows the player to pass through Helms-controlled territory without being attacked on sight.44The cloak is described as a garment worn by the Helms, stained with the blood of their victims and desert sand. It can be purchased from the Taylor Shop in Varnia City, making it one of the more accessible disguise items in the game.77Stats99StatValueTypeCloakDefense5Ice ResistanceLv.3Special EffectHelms DisguiseBuy Price7.86 Silver Coins1111Lore1212"A cloak worn by the Helms. It is still stained with the blood of their victims and the desert sand."1414The Helms are a bandit faction that operates across the desert regions of the game world. They are known for raiding trade caravans and settlements. Wearing their cloak lets the player blend in with their ranks, which is useful during infiltration quests and when crossing hostile territory controlled by the faction.1616How to Obtain1818The Desert Marauder's Cloak can be purchased from the Varnia Taylor Shop in Varnia City for 7.86 Silver Coins. The price may vary depending on faction reputation. Unlike many armor pieces that require exploring hidden caves or defeating bosses, this cloak is simply bought from a merchant, making it one of the easier disguise items to acquire.2020The Taylor Shop is located in the commercial district of Varnia City. Look for the clothing merchant icon on the map after arriving in the city.2222Helms Disguise Effect2424When equipped, the Desert Marauder's Cloak grants the Helms Disguise effect. This prevents Helms faction members from recognizing the player as an outsider, allowing free movement through their camps and patrol routes. The disguise remains active as long as the cloak is equipped.2626For a stronger disguise, combine this cloak with other Helms-faction equipment. Wearing a full matching set of faction armor (cloak, body armor, and headgear) strengthens the disguise and reduces the chance of being detected during close interactions with faction NPCs.2828Other disguise items include the Jackals' Leather Helm (Jackal Disguise) and the Demenissian Uniform Leather Gloves (Demenissian Faction Disguise). Each disguise covers a different faction.3030Refinement3232The Desert Marauder's Cloak can be upgraded through the Refinement system at any blacksmith. Each refinement level increases the cloak's base defense stat. Refinement requires materials that scale in rarity as the level increases. The disguise effect is not affected by refinement level.3434Comparison with Other Cloaks3636At 5 DEF, the Desert Marauder's Cloak is tied for one of the strongest defense values among Cloaks in the game.

The Desert Marauder's Cloak stands out for combining high defense, strong elemental resistance, and the Helms Disguise utility in a single equipment slot.3838Tips4040Buy this cloak early when you first visit Varnia City.
