Mythic Items in The Elder Scrolls Online confer massive amounts of power to players who are willing to put in the time to get them. To get Mythic Items in ESO, players must locate and solve a number of puzzles related to the Antiquities skill line, but that time investment can often be worth it for their unique effects.
The Esoteric Environment Greaves are a Mythic piece of equipment that provides a huge buff to personal Defenses under certain conditions. Though it's still early in the release cycle for the Necrom chapter, these Mythic greaves show a lot of promise for defensive builds.
What Do The Esoteric Environment Greaves Do?
The Esoteric Environment Greaves will reduce incoming damage from all sources by half as long as players are above 50% Stamina. This effect will reduce the player's Stamina by 968 when they are hit above 50% Stamina instead, and the effect can proc about three times each second.
The Esoteric Environment Greaves are a Mythic piece of Leg armor that will prove more useful to Tanks than other specializations. Like other Mythic items in Elder Scrolls Online, the Esoteric Environment Greaves are the only piece necessary to proc its bonus, though it does take up a Set slot that another armor piece could use. Only one Mythic bonus can be active at once.
Esoteric Environment Greaves Mythic Leads Locations
Mythic items in ESO aren't found on their own as individual drops out in the world somewhere. Instead, players must level up their Antiquities skill to at least Rank 7, and hunt down Leads that can then be solved with the Scrying skill. The Lead points to a general are where a Dig Site can be found. Head there, find the Dig Site and complete the Archaeology game to receive one of the five pieces to a Mythic.
Once all five Leads have been Scryed, and once all five pieces have been found, the Esoteric Environment Greaves will automatically assemble in the inventory. Each Lead is found in a different location, especially this Mythic which requires players to trek to several of Tamriel's dungeons outside of the Necrom DLC.
