A VP robe is a luxury on a wizard. Even for leveling you typically quad. For plat farming guards it may beat quadding but never compared so not sure. It has its use for a select few mobs that can drop valuable items but none of those are really worth doing anyway and anything that summons will still wreck you. In raids more or less everything resists the robe. In groups the cast time is so long that many mobs will be dead before it lands, and you don't really group anyway.
However, the lure staff IS useful in raids. In many fights there's only so many lures or banes you can cast and the lure staff unlike the VP staff actually lands. It's still quite pitiful DPS however and often doesn't change the end result (then again what does?).
The VP staff for necro will be much more impactful and the robe is cool too.
