Idea: New Item & Stat (in General)

I was thinking, how Evasion and Displacement Boots with each point takes 1+ each from the opponent's tank. That does help. So why not have some type of stat and new item to do that with the x on opponent's tanks so there will be less damage done. There could be Displacement Gloves and I haven't really thought of a name for the stat. Well the cost for Displacement Gloves could just be abit more expensive than Displacement Boots.

Any thoughts on this idea, post them away.

AC accomplishes both that and reducing magic damage...

I don' think there is a place for the "Boots of DR 3/-"

However if this is a call for PURE AC based hand gear I greatly second that motion. As I have stated before having to put huge Tulkas' on my wall kills me.

There doesn't need to be anymore displacing. The boots do well enough on their own.

"Absorption" Reduces the 'X' enchantment on any weapons used versus wearer. Use in conjunction with EC or an EXBow to reduce attackers Str.

Upgrade costs are the same as DB

Bwa ha ha ha ha

1) AC already does this.

2) There was a stat (Cause Fear) that reduced physical damage (originally by not letting that tank attack then it was changed to just reducing the damage that physical attacks did) and Jon got rid of it when he created CB2. Don't hold your breath on this one.
