ZiggyD's Community Unique Design - Names and Flavour Text

Since it's community made item it should be like this

Name:
Spoiler
"The Unity"


Flavor Text:
Spoiler
"United we stand , divided we fall so as Wraeclast
Item Name: Izaro's Knowledge

Flavour Text: If one cannot choose between, choose both. Only by unison may one be able to grow stronger, thus achieve absolute glory -Izaro, The Lord of the Labyrinth

For art, maybe something looking like it would belong to Izaro.
'Imperious Redoubt'

'A great yet nimble empire ensures the death of foes' - The last Emperor

alternate...

'A great empire must also be nimble to defeat its foes' - The last Emperor


-----Thoughts behind the submission-----
Spoiler

I went with thematic for this submission as this item will probably be around the time of the new league. It seems fitting to pay tribute to a great expansion. The item has 'mighty' traits (survivability etc) that are gained the more 'stats' you have at your disposal. It is reminiscent of Izaro and how he strengthens himself with what is available in each round of the labyrinth. To top it off is the fact that it is mighty like an empire and Imperious like Izaro's approach of forcing people into trials to prove their worth.

It is ironic how the quote mentions death of foes but in the end Izaro's demise came from one who he deemed worthy of his position. Much like the death of many great nations and fortresses.... from within.

Hope everyone likes it!

Ok, so we have a belt that's built around two major ideas.

1) Hybrid armor/evasion builds.
Flavour-wise, that brings to mind a weathered fighter that knows his limits and has the wisdom to keep at the edge of them, only dodging whatever they cannot block. Kind of a veteran soldier, whose many battles past gave him the muscle memory to deal with any kind of threat in the most optimal way.

2) Fortify from Stun, Onslaught from Fortify
There is a pattern among the steps of this mechanism. Hard hits give defensive bonuses, then defensive bonuses give speed. In the mindset of previously said veteran, hard initiation would give you the upper hand in combat, burdaining your opponent, making their attacks lighter and slower (aka you gain defensive bonuses and speed in comparison).

On that train of thought...

The damage seems pretty low, considering how much armor and evasion you would have to stack you wouldn't be able to get much else from the tree and the belt itself can't make up for it.

I might be biased because I want the belt to be good, but per 200 (or somewhere around there) seems much more fair.



I think it's not unreasonable to have a 20k combined armor/evasion with decent gear, especially with pathfinder, granite+jade flasks doubling up as damage flasks could be interesting. You are basically dropping significant life for a damage boost of around 100% attack damage with flasks up, a fair trade but not something every build would want. Definitely not better than a top end rare belt, but then again few uniques are better than top end rares.

Name: Wraeclasp

Flavor Text: The people of Wraeclast were much stronger when they put aside their differences and joined forces.



The name is a play on words obviously. A clasp is something the connects/locks. The name then is like the people of Wraeclast are connected, as in the Path of Exile community when designing this item. Probably not the best of what will be submitted by I liked the idea of it being based on the community and the name/flavor text reflecting that and also being relevant to the game itself.
