The Shade's Cowl is an entry in the Legendary items database, listed under Clothing.
Where to find it
Best places: Prison, rogue foes.
Treasure piles in: Prison (tier 5)

Bard, 
Burglar, 
Rogue, 
Acrobat, 
Thief, 
Assassin
The odds
- Prison treasure pile (tier 5): 0.91% of eligible pieces roll Legendary; it is the only record that fits, so every Legendary of this kind is this one; about 0.91% per piece
- Dragon's den treasure pile (tier 18), a place of another family: 2.9% of eligible pieces roll Legendary; it is the only record that fits, so every Legendary of this kind is this one; about 2.9% per piece
Odds are per weapon, armour or jewellery piece in the loot, at Luck 50 with no finders. See Item rarity for how luck and the dry-spell bonus change them.

Unseen

How it drops
Where it drops
There is no monster that carries The Shade's Cowl and no chest that holds it. A garment drops first (Casual Cloak, Casual Cloak), and if that piece rolls Legendary on the ladder, the game picks one named record that fits it. Records found among rogue sources weigh five to one, so The Shade's Cowl is far likelier from the places listed here. Any weapon, armour or jewellery in any corpse or treasure pile can be rolled, so a source of another family can still give it, at the lower odds shown on the last line.
Getting the base piece
A piece has to drop before it can be Legendary. These come from the loot tables (see Loot tables) and from what a foe carries. The odds above are per eligible piece, at Luck 50, with no finders. Luck, Foxglove and a long dry spell multiply them, as the Item rarity page explains.
Items (legendary pieces made from it)
Casual Cloak
Casual CloakLoot rarity is on by default and forced on online. A Legendary is the second rung from the top of the ladder (Common, Magic, Rare, Legendary, Aetheric, Artifact, Gilded). Its bonuses are fixed; only its condition varies. Foes of its family drop it five times as readily as any other.
