Base lines/Armor/Tortoiseshell Mail

Tortoiseshell Mail is an armor line with 3 tiers, running from Fine Tortoiseshell Mail at item level 45 up to Exalted Tortoiseshell Mail, which keeps dropping with no ceiling. It drops in the Demon Gate, and at weight 1 every line has the same chance of being picked.

It is gear and nothing more: no ability comes with it.

3 Uniques are built on it: The Tortoise Creed, Tortoiseshell Patience and Hearthshell.

Once Awakened, a piece of armor from this line can take any of the 16 Armor spirit paths.
