[Bug] Cloak of the Wolf: Relair's Mistake visual effect spamming.

OBSERVED BEHAVIOR: When you use this cloak to transform into a wolf and then back into human (either manually or automatically after some time), its animation (swirly mist of yellowish dust) may be triggered even by mundane tasks such as attacking, stealth or drinking a potion. Additionally, the button to revert back to human form will not be cleared if you were transformed back to human automatically.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR: The animation should stop being triggered by mundane tasks. Also, the revert back to human button should be appropriately cleared under all circumstances.

DESIRED BEHAVIOR: Make the wolf transformation permanent until manually reverted, please? :3

    [Reilar's mistake; polymorph cloak] It works at first sight, you can morph into a wolf etc. After that however it keeps spamming the polymorph animation every 5 seconds or so. I unmorphed and it still continued. When I switch weapons it would also trigger that animation manually. In the end I unequipped the cloak and saved game / loaded game to stop the spam.

    I think Reilar may have made a mistake when crafting that thing..

    Added to tracker, actually testing it in 2009 (the beta release) didn't reveal anything anomalous.

    No, if i polymorph back, the shape is gone and won't come back.

    Well, except that if i switch weapons... the effect is played.

    Ok, halfway fixed the item, the rest of the problem is similar to the vanishing shillelagh - lets hope it is fixed later.

    When I equipped Neera with the Cloak of the Wolf and had her morph into a wolf, then back into human form, the whirl of light that happens before the shape change kept randomly firing afterward. After I unequipped it. It started to become annoying so I went back to an earlier save and sold it.

    Too bad, too. Because that's a helpful Item for her. 18 Str and 2 attacks per round is something she can use in a pinch.

    As far as I've been able to tell it happens for any character (Tried on Immy and Reshaad) and after transforming to wolf the particles keep popping up (even if you turn back to human and give the cloak to someone else).

    I had this happen as well. Only a couple of times though, it wasn't so bad.
