Actually, I was refering to the cloak in the Kundi maps
(in the tower of sorcery). There is a particular "cheat"
possible if the player is magic immune. Basically, the
player casts cleric magic to a very negative grace, this
will ultimately result in a "retributive strike" from the
god. Nothing but magic immune creatures may survive such
an attack. This is unbalancing because a player can wipe
out *everything* with this attack (although you dont get
any experience for the attack). Of course, if the player
is already at the level that they can easily defeat everything
in the game, I guess it doesnt matter. The game certainly
becomes much less fun once you understand how to use
magic immunity..this is one reason I suggest no artifact
be allowed to convey permanent magic immunity (temporary
magic immunity is ok, if its quite difficult to obtain).
