XXX places his hand next to some gilded black alloy armbands for a moment.

XXX extends his arms in a wide sweeping motion and thousands of snaking tendrils of shadow suddenly burst forth creating a great arc of snapping, swarming, biting shadow maws and spiked tentacles. As XXXX's arms complete the circuit, the shadows shrink back beneath his skin.

I am going to assume those are Shadowdeath vambraces. There are lessers and greater sets, with the key difference being the greaters are capable of X-realms transportation. As for where to get them, they are traditionally released during Ebon Gate via auction, storyline, or the digging game. Otherwise, you will need to 1. find someone willing to part with them, and 2. pay between 100-150 million silver and/or trade value.

Yeah, that's Shaft's new set of lessers, and they do a whole heck of a lot more than that. Akoe dug those up at EG as gilded black alloy armlets, Durgrimst got ahold of them, I bought them from Durg, altered them to gilded black alloy armbands and tweaked the show a bit since it had some typos, sold them to Chiv, and he just sold them to Shaft.

>[Ta'Illistim, Shimmarglin Court]
The imposing facade of the Shimmarglin Inn dominates this corner of the court. Flanking the inn's doorposts and hanging above each glaesine-paned window, grinning gargoyles stand in stony defense of the lair within. A trickle of patrons flows through the inn's wide front doors, allowing a short-lived flood of light into the court with each swing of the doors. You also see an ironwork signpost and a floating dais.
Obvious paths: northeast, southwest, northwest

>A battered antique faewood crate scampers up to you on its wooden legs.

>prod my bracers
A cold suddenly grips you, the pain of the chill so unbearable that it feels as though your very muscle and bone were being frozen in place and then shattered with a massive hammer. Darkness descends like a curtain around you, and there is the distinct sense of travelling at a very great speed, completely separated from your flesh body. A thousand needles pierce your mind as you feel every piece and fragment of your form coalesce once more and you notice you're now somewhere else...


Roundtime: 14 sec.


[A Plateau]
A cold, dark wind howls across the top of a plateau that is utterly featureless except for the grit and small stones that blanket the cracked and pitted surface. No apparent sun or moon can be spotted in the sky, but a dull grey seems to suffuse everything above the ground in a dim pallor. Shadows leap and dance across the landscape as if they were alive, adding to the chill strangeness of the place. A short pillar of obsidian set with onyx studs stands in front of a dark shadowy black portal.
Obvious exits: none
>A battered antique faewood crate scurries up to you on its wooden legs.

>push pillar
Your fingers trail across the pillar and run across a raised onyx stud. Before you can react, the stone slides into the pillar with a soft click and the entire pillar rotates.

>l pil
The fine lines and expert craftsmanship of the pillar seem abnormally out of place in this forlorn location. The pillar has been studded with a series of six perfect half orbs of black onyx each set within a crown of black iron. The third onyx has been depressed into its setting.

>g port
You step into the portal, and feel a cold shock as the black liquid envelops you. For a brief moment, the shadows part into a brillant vista of an enormous starfield. One of the pinpoints of light suddenly comes rushing up to you until it fills your vision, blinding and all-encompassing. The coldness of the dark begins to burn alternately with the blazing light in front of you, and just as the bliss of unconsciousness begins to overtake you...


Roundtime: 10 sec.


[Wehnimer's, South Ring Rd.]
The rough-hewn, pointed logs forming the palisade of the town's defensive wall are a constant companion along this route linking sections of Wehnimer's Landing to the bazaar, the square, and the waterfront via the southernmost road.
Obvious paths: east, west

>A battered antique faewood crate scurries up to you on its wooden legs.

Everyone in amunet range sees (at night) - >The moon is dimmed for a moment as a deep black column pierces the surrounding night and lauches itself into the sky.

Have no idea who owns the other set or if they are even active. Cost me a pretty penny for that one added option at the EG auction. But I always wanted an X-realm transport so I went for it.

Do the greaters also have the local teleport option?

According to KP (nice article on the vambraces there), the greaters have all the abilities of the lessers... so probably.

Greaters are the same as lessers but with X-realm teleport added.
