Trent Tokens
Death Knight Cloak - 2024 (Gold)
Adds +2 to all saving throws
Once per room, the wearer may use a melee weapon (using melee stats) to attack monsters that may only be hit by ranged attacks. This item does not confer the ability to fly/levitate, it allows the wearer to leap up, attack, and land safely back in the same spot from which they took off. This item neither impairs nor improves the wearer’s ability to perform normal attacks or Spell castings.
This effect does not teleport the character to the monster–the character physically moves up to the creature. Bars, force fields, or similar impediments to movement could prevent the attacker from reaching the intended target.
Q1) Does this turn a melee attack into a ranged attack?
A1) No. It allows you to perform a melee attack against a monster that otherwise may only be attacked with ranged attacks. For example, you would still be subject to Retribution Damage when making an attack with this ability.
Q2) How does this interact with re-slide abilities?
A2) If an effect allows you to re-slide an attack, the re-slide also benefits from the ability to attack a monster that may only be hit by ranged attacks.
This item is part of the Death Knight Set.
When at least three items are worn, grants 4 points of Darkrift Retribution Damage.

Retribution Damage: When a melee attack deals damage to a target possessing Retribution Damage (RD), the attacker takes damage equal to the target’s total RD. Neither missile nor Spell attacks trigger RD. If an attack would have caused damage but is completely negated (e.g., Cloak of Shadowskin) or the attack’s damage is reduced to zero (e.g., melee damage reduction), RD does not trigger.
Note: Energy-draining Undead (vampire, lich, etc.) are immune to Darkrift energy, but other Undead take normal damage from it.
Text On Token: +2 to saves. May attack a Ranged-only monster w/ a Melee attack (1/room)
