Interesting Game Trivia
Even when the player has the Vampire cloak equipped, the player can still equip the Iron body armor which may have more protection than the cloak but doesn't have the special ability the cloak has.
Some potion ingredients have hidden interactions with certain equipment. For example, wearing the Vampire cloak might enhance the effects of night-harvested ingredients.
The development team originally planned for 15 different potion ingredients, but scaled back to 5 core ingredients to ensure each felt unique and meaningful to the gameplay.
