Has anyone picked this up? What do you think of it? Aren't there some legendary bracelets out there just as good?

Is the benefit that you can pof it?

I posted the info in anoher thread a while ago: You cannot apply POF on the human/elf version, only the gargoyle version of the medallion. (Note that I tested this on test center, not sure about the live servers. )

It took some work, but I was able to fit it into my character while still having full resists. I never felt compelled to with the pendant of magi, but +12 SDI is hard to ignore.

Thanks for asking about this as I was thinking of cashing in for one. So far I've only acquired the leather leggings and the undead spellbook. I don't think I'm gonna be able to play enough before the event ends to gather enough drops to fulfill my wish list.

It doesn't help I keep stashing drops to create sets of armour, shenanigans like that. I presume they will become 'redundant rares' post event.

This is a necklace (not bracelet). If you have a max SDI mage (word of death mage) this is a must. If you also grab the SDI pants reward from this event, that gives you a bump in resists over the kelp leggings (assuming you have other legendaries and reward like the shogun chest with high resist). Overall I was able to fit it into my SDI suit without losing all 70s.

The only reason not to get it IMO is if you can't manage the resists OR you are already able to hit the 250 SDI cap without it.

I cant use it and get resists to stay 70s while using Protection and Spellweaving Tree form.

I want everyone in this thread to know that I am absolutely furious with you, haha. This stupid thread cost me so much gold. But, alas...

After playing around a LOT with the new equipment from the event, I think the following is my favorite combination. Without a spellbook, it gives me 150% SDI, a lot of mana, 5 FR, 6 FCR, 40+ LMC, 100+ LRC, 30 MR, 625 luck, and max resists even with protection and/or reaper form (the fire resists from Hook's Shield make this feasible). Which, of course, means with a 50% SDI book:

120 SW
120 Mysticism
120 Focus
