11Overview2233The Plate Cloak of the Shadows is a Cloak in Crimson Desert. It is part of the Shadows equipment set, a collection of high-tier Armor pieces found in hidden locations. With Fire Resistance Lv.7, it provides the highest fire elemental resistance of any cloak in the game, more than double the Lv.3 offered by most other plate cloaks. This makes it the go-to cloak for fire-heavy encounters and boss fights.4455Stats6677StatValueTypePlate CloakDefense3Fire ResistanceLv.7Refinement10 levelsSell Price8.29 Silver88Fire Resistance Lv.7 is significantly stronger than the Lv.3 offered by standard plate cloaks. This level of fire resistance provides massive damage reduction against fire-based boss attacks and environmental fire hazards. At 3 DEF, the physical defense is also among the highest available for cloaks. Note that unlike other Shadows set pieces, this cloak does not have Abyss Core sockets, but it can still be refined up to 10 levels at the blacksmith.991010Description11111212"A cloak once worn by Beloth, the Darksworn.
