Biggest issue is probably that it's evasion based, so rather hard to color correctly for anything but bow builds. | ||

That armor is nice, but not for every build. Shavronne, Lightning Coil, Carcass Jack etc. will still be BIS for a lot of builds imo. | ||

For Hardcore Lightning Coil is BiS for most bow and melee chars last I checked, except for Juggernaut. Carcass Jack is great for Softcore, having more AoE rules on AoE builds using Ice Nova, Shockwave Totem and the likes. The new armor will probably reduce the use of Lightning Coil though. | ||

I think this one is overtuned. It allows for a build type that will be very strong, and then tacks on way too much extra stuff. Poison on hit? really? why was that necessary. | ||

That other new chest, the evasion one with 20% less damage on it, I think it's pretty comparable to LC and I thought it was reasonable in power level. I think this one is overtuned. It allows for a build type that will be very strong, and then tacks on way too much extra stuff. Poison on hit? really? why was that necessary. It could use a drawback for using it, yup. The Poison on hit is slightly worse than using the Poison gem, so it's comparable to Lioneye's Vision which has lvl 15 Pierce instead. The +1 curse and hexproof ignoring (imo this is slightly overrated, curse immune maps are rare but yeah they happen; deadly rares with curse immunity will still kill you) beats all the other stuff on it for most characters though. Would pure curse supporters use it btw? Don't those usually go low life and using a full eva armor would be pretty unthinkable? | ||

It still looks like fun piece of gear and since I find it kinda average i hope it's cheap so i can make EK/BF build with it. | ||
