| | effect = For heroes without [[Necromancy]], it works the same as expert level [[Necromancy]]. If a hero already has [[Necromancy]], the level of the skill determines what type of creatures are resurrected: basic – [[walking dead]]; advanced – [[wight]]s; expert – [[lich]]es.<br>'''Components effect:''' not active.}} The artifact allows the raising of killed enemy troops as [[skeleton]]s after battle, as if the hero had [[Necromancy]]. The power of the skill is 30% (15% in [[HotA]]){{-wh}}, which is equal to the total [[Necromancy]] buff provided by all of the components. Unlike the real [[Necromancy]] [[secondary skill]], the basic effect cannot be increased by the [[Necromancy Amplifier]], [[Soul Prison]] or the [[specialty|Necromancy specialty]], - it's always 30% in {{sod}} and 15% in {{hota}}.

|
| For heroes with [[Necromancy]], the artifact effect is different. They get all the skill buffs available (except for the cloak's components effect), and the level of the skill determines which kind of [[undead]] will rise:
| | The Cloak of the Undead King is extremely powerful and useful for [[Necropolis]] players and is relatively easy to make. |
| * {{Cn|Walking Dead}} with basic [[Necromancy]]
| |
| * {{Cn|Wight}} with advanced [[Necromancy]]
| |
| * {{Cn|Lich}} with expert [[Necromancy]]
| |
|
| |
|
| If there are only upgraded creatures in the army and no empty slots available, [[Zombie]]s, [[Wraith]]s or [[Power Lich]]es will be raised, but just 66.6% compared to the number of unupgraded ones.
| | The Cloak of the Undead King resurrects 30% of the battlefield dead as [[skeleton]]s. If the hero already has the [[Necromancy]] skill the percentages are added to that skill and the hero's proficiency with Necromancy determines what Undead is re-raised. |

| If the [[tournament rules]] are turned on, this artifact can still be assembled and will display its description, but it does not work.
| | Basic: Skeletons |
| | Advanced: Zombies |
| | Expert: Liches |
|

|
| Requires the following artifacts to create: [[Amulet of the Undertaker]], [[Dead Man's Boots]], and [[Vampire's Cowl]]
| | In order to make the Cloak of the Undead King you need to have three artifacts: |
| | *[[Amulet of the Undertaker]] |
| | *[[Vampire's Cowl]] |
| | *[[Dead Man's Boots]] |

| == {{hota}} ==
| | You cannot purchase combination artifacts in [[Artifact Merchants]]. |
| In {{hota}}, the power of the Cloak of the Undead King was cut in half, as [[Necromancy]] itself. It gives heroes without [[Necromancy]] just 15% skill instead of 30%.
| | [[Cost]] is derived from sell price. |

|
| [[Category: Relic artifacts]] | | It is also important to note that as with all combination artifacts the hero will continue to receive the benefits of the individual artifacts as well. So one's [[Necromancy]] skill will be incredibly powerful when you equip the Cloak of the Undead King. |

| | I think this artifact is almost overpowered because it is easy to amass swarms of liches on large maps. I have played games where I have gotten over 500 Liches due to luck in finding the artifacts and Expert Necromancy before level 5. At any rate it increases the sheer power of Necropolis even more. |
