Item History: Originally provided ability power but was changed in V1.0.0.52 to offer magic penetration instead. Recent patches adjusted the magic penetration from 18 to 15 and updated the item's icon.
The boots derive their lore from a legendary Zear mage who escaped the Rune Wars, supposedly wearing shoes of immense power that granted extraordinary speed.
