[Sky]

no idea, i just copy-pasted it from the spoilers file.

and yes, i wizarded it, it is in fact + sixteen speed.

[PowerWyrm]

Seems that this armor is based on a ring of speed no? I can't see how it could have +16 otherwise...

And isn't the activation incorrect? Should be "breathe chaos or disenchantment" no?

[Sky]

WHAAAAAAAt

well, i just had one of the strongest weapons in the game (the trident of wrath) dropped by a common mage at DL26..

Accidentally started a standart game when my CL49 paladin died to morgoth and didnt realize until something dropped Forasgil .. by which time it was too late to restart.
