Uniques/Boots/The Cold Draft

The Cold Draft is a pair of Demon Unique boots with no boss attached: any drop at Threat 16 or higher can turn out to be it, and at that Threat 0.7% of what falls comes up Unique. It is built on Masterwork Veilwalker Boots — step 5 of the Veilwalker Boots line, item level 60 and up.

It always rolls the same numbers: +53 Ward, +5% Move Speed, +30 Ward, +5% Movement Speed, +30 Magic Defense, -26% Dash Cooldown, +8% Movement Speed and +18% Affinity Resistance.

On top of that it carries The Cold Draft — Phase Step carries 3 ticks farther and applies Chill to everything you pass through, but recovers 30% slower.

It leans into Chill.

It is Adventure Mode loot.

Wearing it hands you Phase Step.

“You were not there. They were, briefly, and colder for it.”
