Walk 10 tiles without losing life and a shield of 8% of your life holds 4 s.

Play

Drops from floor 6 down.

The power

Walk 10 tiles without losing life and a shield of 8% of your life holds 4 s. It changes whichever hero wears it directly, so it works with any build.

Stats

A unique always has its own lines, each rolled in a narrow range, on top of its base’s implicit. The implicit grows with the floor it dropped on (3–5 plus 1 per floor below the first, rounded down).

How it drops

From floor 6 down, a boss kill drops a unique 50% of the time, an elite 7% and any other kill 0.06%. The game never drops a unique you already own or wear, nor the same one twice in a dive, and picks evenly among the rest: with none yet, a boss kill has a 2.8% chance of being this one for the Warrior (one of 18), and a 2.6% chance of being this one for the Mage or the Bonecaller (one of 19). It is one of the 20 deeper uniques, found from floor 6 down, after the first boss: no kill above floor 6 can drop it. Uniques and set pieces are finished work: the smith will not touch them and the altar will not take them.
