CoBF Question (in General)

Does this cancel out Unarmed combat? Also what about the skill from items, like Archery from those gloves or evasion from DB?

Heath, The CBF responds in a fairly predictable fashion.

If you hit a minion wearing a CBF in melee (with a melee weapon or with UC), the flames will rise. The hitter will be consumed, oft-times fatally.

Skills, gloves, evasion...these items have not a whit to do with it. If you physically hit (i.e. non-magic) a CBF wearer, you will feel the pain unless you are using a ranged weapon.

Feel free to Chat Mail me if you have additional questions.

He's asking, i think, what does the CoBF prevent the wearer from doing/casting.

Cancels all skills and enchantments. Take a look at those who are wearing one to see how they are used. It can be very illuminating.

I was under the impression that armors that grant inherent abilities are not negated by a Cloak of Balrog Flame. You would still receive a .2 added bloodlust if you wore a CoBF and a TSA. Am I wrong?

They still work (and the VA bonus from BTH or MH), and becasue the minimum effect for Protect is 4 a CBF wearer casts Protection at 4 even though it's level has been reduced to zero, so you should train that as well.
