Pool of the item type from the game files, version 2.8.0. Skill damage bonuses only carry weight for their class. All properties of this slot

The magical properties of a piece of armor such as this intrigue the mind. It was constructed from the finest parts of many different armors that were worn by many different heroes.

Emergency Full Heal From the Survival Bonus

Chaingmail turns a life-saving instant into a full recovery: as soon as you receive a survival bonus, you are fully healed moments later. It is strong insurance against the single big hit that would otherwise have dropped you - instead of barely surviving, you are back at a full health globe and fighting.

The chest is class-neutral, so it appeals to any build that deliberately rides the edge of the survival bonus. It shines where incoming damage is hard and spiky, such as deep Greater Rifts. One practical note: do not lean on this effect alone. Pair it with steady damage reduction so the full-heal reset stays the exception rather than your only lifeline.

What the Power Waits For

The full heal is a reaction, not a precaution: healing only starts once you have earned the survival bonus, and according to the power it happens quickly rather than instantly. You still have to survive the dangerous hit itself on your own. The power has no roll range, so every Chaingmail heals you to full in the same way. Differences between two copies therefore lie entirely in their other properties.

Resistance and Main Stat

A resistance to all elements of 91–100 is fixed, and a Primal Ancient copy reaches the full 100. A random main stat at 416–500 joins it, either Dexterity, Intelligence or Strength. Make sure it matches your class; a wrong stat is the first candidate for the Mystic. Since the power itself adds no damage, the chest piece contributes mainly to your defense, and the fixed resistance fits that role exactly.

Assembled from Many Armors

The flavor text marvels at the piece's magical properties: it was constructed from the finest parts of many different armors once worn by many different heroes. Chaingmail is, in a way, a patchwork of heroic gear, fitting for a power that puts you back together at the decisive moment.
