That includes Breach, Pierce Magic, Pierce Shield, Warding Whip, Ruby, Ray, Spellstrike, the whole deal. As an added bonus, you're also immune to Dispel & Remove Magic.
I'm sorry, but in what way is that different from a Wand of Ctrl-Y?

The boots can't kill. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Jests aside, the Preserving Boots are not as powerful as they look at first glance.
First,
all of these immunities can be achieved by stacking two or three Spell Immunities. Second, these immunities would be much more powerful if enemy Mages would bother to
actually cast all these spells. Third and last, don't forget that the Boots are only useful if what they guard is useful.
I'm not saying that they are not powerful - they are the an excellent pair of boots, and second only to the Boots of Speed overall.
No, i'm not crazy. The Boots of Speed are more powerful for most classes.
All i'm saying is that the difference between the Preserving Boots and the so-called Wand of Ctrl-Y is very,
very big. [img]smile.gif[/img]
