i tried digging around the day after i made this post, but nothing i found could gave conclusive evidence one way or the other. the archive.org pages for the robe/the quest/the hole listing the quest availability on alla and everlore all were dated after the first available comment on the current alla, so that wasn't helpful at all.
item statistic balance-wise, it would seem like this quest should be in currently. it's comparable to a froglok bonecaster's robe, but sacrifices 5str 1int 10mana for the cost of 2ac and 10sv cold. and considering the chances of receiving the robe as a reward (50/50 confirmed pretty much everywhere), the risk vs. reward isn't really imbalanced for the current timeline either.
anyway, no real evidence here, just more guessing.
