BRISINGAMEN
- ARTIFACT
- AMULET
- LEVEL 74
- KEEPER
BRISINGAMEN is an artifact built on the EVENT HORIZON LOCKET, and every copy carries the same bonuses — the block is authored, not rolled, so there is no such thing as a badly rolled one.
It is worn from level 74, the requirement of the base underneath it rather than its own item level of 155 — which is why it can land in your hands long before it looks like it should.
It is a keeper. Its headline bonus is a fraction of your own numbers rather than a flat lump, so it reads modest the day you find it and grows with you for the rest of the campaign.
FOUR SMITHS MADE IT AND NAMED ONE PRICE EACH. SHE PAID ALL FOUR.
Underneath the name it is a EVENT HORIZON LOCKET: It opens. It has always opened. What is inside is a picture of the moment before, and it is a different moment every time you look.
What it does
- FOUND FROMJESUS upward. Below that rung this piece is not in the drop pool at all, whatever the level of what you kill.
- SALVAGEPrecious material — the merchant pays four times what an ordinary piece of its worth fetches.
A fresh find in the hands of a hero who has spent no stat points — the piece itself, with nothing of the wielder in it. Your own STRENGTH, DEXTERITY or INTELLECT lifts these from there, as does an item level found deeper than the requirement.
Its bonuses
Fixed on every copy. Only the base damage and armor moves, by a ±10% band rolled per drop — so two copies differ a little and a well-rolled one is worth keeping.
- +2% LUCK
- +30 LUCK
- +190 MAX HP
- +9% CRIT
- +16 DEXTERITY
Where it comes from
Nothing in the campaign is authored to hand it over, so it only turns up where the general loot rules reach it.
The artifact tier does not drop at all below monster level 40. At that level it rolls at 0.008%, and every level past it adds a little more.
Who you kill matters more than depth does: a boss adds 0.07% on top and a named elite 0.02%, while an ordinary minion's chance is cut to 20% of the figure above. That is the whole reason the set pieces are farmed off the set pieces.
Once a roll lands the tier, which NAME it pays is a second weighted pick across every item eligible for that slot. This one's weight is 100 — the catalog default, so it is neither favoured nor held back.
