Transcendent Carapace

Rare uniqueChestPlate ArmorConversion (defense)

Your Armor mitigates Elemental damage instead of Physical.

How it drops

Transcendent Carapace is a rare unique for the chest slot, always on a Plate Armor base. A rare unique, power grade 5 of 5: it falls 26.7× less often than a standard unique. Uniques fall from the Risings; a floor drop is one only once in 100,000. Inside each tier a grade 5 falls 8× less often than a grade 1. Only one copy of a unique can be worn at a time.

Stats

Uniques roll a fixed set of affixes chosen to serve the power; only the values roll, from the depth the item drops at and its quality. Below is Transcendent Carapace exactly as the game rolls it at quality 100, at three depths.

Percent affixes are fixed at a given quality; flat ones grow with depth. Quality runs 50–125% and multiplies every line.

Builds it belongs to

It lives in the Conversion (defense) family of uniques, alongside Pyre Ward, Stormsipper, Flesh of the Abyss, The Grounding Spire. Stacking uniques from one family is how a mechanic is pushed past what affixes alone allow.
