Gravekeeper's Cloak (6.65–6.88f)

EV

Ability
Passive

Affects
Self

Visage generates a layered barrier that protects him from physical and magical attacks. If he receives damage from a player, one layer is removed, and takes time to recover.

Max Layers: 4

Armor Bonus per Layer: 1.5/3/4.5/6

Magic Resistance Bonus per Layer: 5%/10%/15%/20%

Minimum Damage Threshold: 15

Layer Recharge Time: 3

Modifiers

Gravekeepers Cloak Stack

Death

Visage's tough scales share equal properties of ghost and stone, making it nearly impervious to blade and magical assault.

• This ability got reworked into the current Gravekeeper's Cloak in the 7.00 gameplay patch.

• Every time when Visage takes 15 or more damage (after all reductions) from a player (including allies, excluding himself), a layer is removed after the damage instance.

• This is how much armor and magic resistance each amount of layers grants on each level, and how high Visage's total magic resistance is, considering only base magic resistance:
  • Level 1: 0/1.5/3/4.5/6 armor, 0%/5%/10%/15%/20% magic resistance, 10%/14.5%/19%/23.5%/28% total magic resistance
  • Level 2: 0/3/6/9/12 armor, 0%/10%/20%/30%/40% magic resistance, 10%/19%/28%/37%/46% total magic resistance
  • Level 3: 0/4.5/9/13.5/18 armor, 0%/15%/30%/45%/60% magic resistance, 10%/23.5%/37%/50.5%/64% total magic resistance
  • Level 4: 0/6/12/18/24 armor, 0%/20%/40%/60%/80% magic resistance, 10%/28%/46%/64%/82% total magic resistance
