Aegisheart Covenant is a piece of Mortal Unique armor with no boss attached: it drops anywhere in Nightmare, most often from N8 up (rarer below that home difficulty, never above it), and nowhere else. Every copy is item level 100, and there 0.3% of what falls comes up Unique. It is built on Exalted Aegisheart Mail — step 6 of the Aegisheart Mail line, item level 80 and up.

It always rolls the same numbers: +80 Armor, +104 Ward, +436 Maximum Health, +100 Armor, +130 Ward, +658 Ward, +260 Armor and +58% Guard Power.

One Unique drop in 40 is a Mythical copy: the same item carrying 15–25% Mythical Energy that boosts every stat on it and can never be changed; the 15% floor is 10 times as common as the perfect 25%.

On top of that it carries Aegisheart Covenant — +25% Ward; Special area radius +20%.

“Signed in ward-light by twelve knights. Eleven kept it.”
