The Cloak of the Undead King is extremely powerful and useful for [[Necropolis]] players and is relatively easy to make.
In addition to the regular bonuses, the Cloak of the Undead King resurrects 30% of the battlefield dead as [[skeleton]]s. If the hero already has the [[Necromancy]] skill, the percentage is added to that skill, and the hero's proficiency with Necromancy determines what [[Undead]] is raised:
 
*Basic = Walking Dead

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]]
*[[Amulet of the Undertaker]]
*[[Dead Man's Boots]]
*[[Vampire's Cowl]]
*[[Vampire's Cowl]]
*[[Dead Man's Boots]]


You cannot purchase combination artifacts in [[Artifact Merchants]].
Base [[Cost]]: 60000 [[gold]]
[[Cost]] is derived from sell price.


Basic [[Cost]]: 60000 [[gold]]
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.

==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.
==Reply==
Agreed. But good luck doing Sandro's campaign without it.
==Reply2==
Hells yeah, Sandro is a bitch to do without my lucky liches!
==Question 1==
Does anyone know if the Cloak of the Undead King affects transformations done through the skeletal transformer?
No. It does not. The transformer only makes skeletons in a 1:1 ratio.
