I found a Engraved Cape of Fire Resistence for sale in the AH last night and dropped a bid figuring what the heck. I won it for 7.5 gp. The FR on it is +13 and I thought it would be a nice item with the FR enchant on it for 28 total. It has no other stats. I'm mixed on whether to wear it for FR gear sine it has zero other stats, but +13 seems pretty damn good FR for a cloak. No agi though...Hmmm... Thoughts?

I recommend you do the quest line for Smokey's Drape instead. +9 Stam, +10 FR. Starts with turning in 2 Thorium Bars, 8 Hi-Explosive Bombs, 8 Unstable Triggers, and 1 Golden Rod to Smokey LaRue at Light's Hope Chapel. After that, there's a quest to bomb the Ziggurats and Slaughterhouses in Plaguewood, which is not soloable due to some tough elite mobs that guard them.
Most blacksmiths can make the rod (including Zrog and Prunetracy). Jakani, Zombie, and Firebreather can all make the bombs and triggers (Bombs and Triggers together require 22 mithril, 28 solid stone, 10 mageweave if I remember correctly).

Ooooo. yea, I have that quest atm. The starting one that is where ya get the mats together for the npc. I do recall writing that down as a 'gotta do it' but wasnt sure where to get the items. Thanks for the heads up!

While +FR is good, +FR without other stats is... touchy.
The problem being that you want to gain FR without gimping your other stats so much that it's not worthwhile. So... it depends on what you were wearing before, really. If all you had was a cloak that gave you +5 sta or something, then +13 FR would be a nice upgrade for a FR fight. But if your other cloak is decent... well... that's harder to judge.

I wouldn't have paid that much for it, considering the cloak you could have gotten from said quest, but the FR is quite decent on that, and if you haven't equipped it, you could prob sell it for about as much as you paid.
