Defense Drawn From Seven-Sided Strike

The Binding of the Lost marries offense with protection: every hit from Seven-Sided Strike lowers the damage you take for a few seconds. Because this Monk skill lands several strikes in rapid succession, you build up a heavily stacking damage reduction in no time, leaving you astonishingly resilient.

That makes the belt a cornerstone of Monk builds that put Seven-Sided Strike front and center and aim to blend survival with damage output. Tip: Use the skill often and deliberately right in the middle of enemy packs, since only steady hits keep the reduction at full height. That lets you push deeper into dangerous situations while still dishing out your main damage, without folding instantly.

Hits, duration and roll range

Each hit grants 4–5% damage reduction for 7 seconds; a Primal Ancient reaches the full 5.0%. Since the strike dashes between enemies over 7 strikes, several hits come together per cast. The sticking point is the cooldown: it is 30 seconds and only starts once the strike's effects end. Without further reduction, there is a real gap between two casts in which the damage reduction runs out.

Runes that close the gap

  • Sustained Attack lowers the cooldown to 14 seconds, bringing the reduction back far more often.
  • Pandemonium removes the 50 Spirit cost and freezes enemies hit for 7 seconds - exactly as long as the damage reduction lasts.
  • Fulminating Onslaught makes each strike explode, Sudden Assault teleports you to the target and raises the damage, and Incinerate sets enemies on fire.

Stats and background

For the main stat, a Monk wants Dexterity at 416 to 500 points. Apart from the main stat, the binding has no fixed properties - everything else is random, and the Mystic can reroll the weakest one.

The flavor text is one of the shortest and saddest: this binding is all that was ever found of Uliana after her disappearance.
