Rakoff was a simple layman scribe who studied the ways and fighting technique of the monks extensively before creating an item to draw out the life force of a defeated enemy.

More life from every health globe

Rakoff's Glass of Life boosts your healing twofold: health globes and potions grant much more life, and killed enemies have an increased chance to drop a globe in the first place, an effect that also emanates, so it works when your follower wears the amulet. That makes the amulet a solid defensive and support piece for builds that use health globes as their main regeneration.

It shines especially in groups, where more globes in circulation keep the whole team steadier. Tip: Wear it in setups that already kill many enemies quickly so a steady stream of globes forms, and combine it with items that increase your pickup radius so you never miss one.

Two rolls, two effects

The two benefits live in different places. The extra chance for a health globe is the legendary power and rolls between 3 and 4%. The additional Life from globes and potions, on the other hand, is a fixed property of 20,001–29,713 Life; that is the wider spread, and a high roll makes every globe you pick up noticeably more valuable. Primal Ancient copies hit the maximum on both.

Followers and pickup radius

Because the power emanates, you can hand the amulet to your follower and keep your own neck slot free for another amulet. Only the power is marked as emanating, though, not the extra Life from globes. A larger pickup radius for gold and health globes comes, for example, from Cord of the Sherma. If you wear the Glass yourself, it rolls 626–750 Strength, Dexterity or Intelligence, where you pick your class's main stat. There is no class restriction.
