Cloaks of displacement are only Magic Cancellation 2.  MC3
is a lot safer (Cloak of Protection, Cloak of Magic Resistance,
Oilskin cloak, Elven cloak, Robe, or Mithril Armor).  Also,
as Andrew Kerr points out, you really should have reflection
(Silver Dragon Scale Mail, Shield of Reflection, Amulet of
Reflection, or Longbow of Diana wielded as primary weapon).
SDSM+Cloak of Magic Resistance is a really good combination.

Good luck!
