• Crafted by Leatherworking at skill 185; the recipe comes from a trainer. Reagents below.
• It binds when equipped: tradeable until someone wears it, so each one sells once.
• Disenchants into Dream Dust, Greater Nether Essence, Large Radiant Shard, worth about 1g 16s 61c on PvP Alliance EU today. Odds below.
