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}}.


The Cloak of the Undead King is extremely powerful and useful for [[Necropolis]] players and is relatively easy to make.
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:
* {{Cn|Walking Dead}} with basic [[Necromancy]]
* {{Cn|Wight}} with advanced [[Necromancy]]
* {{Cn|Lich}} with expert [[Necromancy]]


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 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.


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


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


You cannot purchase combination artifacts in [[Artifact Merchants]].
== {{hota}} ==
[[Cost]] is derived from sell price.
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%.


Basic [[Cost]]: 60000 [[gold]]
{{Artifact 'see also'}}


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.

__NOTOC__
==Comment==
 
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.

You trip over the Cloak of the Undead King, dust it off, and stick it in your pack.

Cloak of the Undead King is a relic class combination artifact and is equipped in the Cape slot. Combination artifacts were first added in the Shadow of Death expansion. The artifact allows the raising of killed enemy troops as skeletons after battle, as if the hero had Necromancy. The power of the skill is 30% (15% in HotAHorn of the Abyss, 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 Necromancy specialty, - it's always 30% in Shadow of Death and 15% in Horn of the Abyss.

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:

If there are only upgraded creatures in the army and no empty slots available, Zombies, Wraiths or Power Liches will be raised, but just 66.6% compared to the number of unupgraded ones.

If the tournament rules are turned on, this artifact can still be assembled and will display its description, but it does not work.

Requires the following artifacts to create: Amulet of the Undertaker, Dead Man's Boots, and Vampire's Cowl

Horn of the Abyss[edit | hide | hide all]

In Horn of the Abyss, 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%.
