  • Due to this armor's amazing stats; it is often used as the best-in-slot item even for classes that do not utilize the +1 to Teleport skill.
  • Remember guys, it's Jah Ith Ber, not Jah Ist Ber or Jah Eth Ber.
  • While both DS and AP provide more Defense (like any Elite Armor does), MP has much lower STR requirements (only 55) compared to DS (77 STR) and AP (103 STR).
  • Whilst you could have the preference to build such an expensive rune word in a superior base, please keep in mind that the repair costs in that case will be extreme, forcing you to use the repair cube recipe regularly.
  • Repair costs for Normal and Superior Enigmas in Mage Plates [Reddit] Repair costs for Normal and Superior Enigmas in Mage Plates You also can use Ral to repair.
  • One oft overlooked but nevertheless very powerful affix found on this item is the remarkably high 14 Life After Each Kill.
