Cloak of the Harvester: Enlarges & Turns into "Rock" aka Badger

THe cloak of the harvester when activated is supposed to turn your character into a rock. It turns you into a badger with big teeth! Was this intentional? If so, change the text pls. If not, please fix. TY.

9 times out of 10, you get a rock. (Many different rocks to choose from!)

That other 1 time out of 10 - you get a badger as a special surprise.

And it rerolls every time you zone. Rock... Rock... Rock... Rock.... BADGER!!!! Rock... Rock... Rock...

(It's part of the item's charm - many of us toggle it off and on and off and on... just to proc a Badger...)

(*) Actuall odds unknown. Feels like about 1 in 10 though.

It's a tongue-in-cheek reference to the fact early on in game levels , people would head to what looked like a rock to mine ore...only to find it was a badger with it's back to you.

Yeah it's kind of a dig at the old Heritage Quest for the Dwarven Work Boots, where you used to have to harvest a ton of ore in Antonica, and they werent easy to find...so you would get all excited when you thought you saw an ore node, only to run up to it and it be a BADGER. Sneaky EQ2 devs, making jokes from our misery...

Since I always keep my illusions off, I was unaware that it turned into anything. I just knew it made me big and sparkly. haha
