I'm the only one who love this set? I know it's not optimal or endgame stuff. But it does feels great to stand without moving in all that stuuf monsters like to throw at our feet. I'm now trying to roll fire damage on my neck, no lucky at all =(
Think Grievuuz said it pretty well, it's a rather defensive set, with a number of guaranteed affixes that are probably not considered top-notch in softcore where damage is king. But yeah the 4-piece set bonus is a thing of beauty. I've not gathered 4 pieces myself but given how much Countess Julia's Cameo makes me smile, for sure immunity to Desecrate, Molten and Plagued would make me smile three times as much.
Actually.. leave off Blackthorne's amulet, take the other 4 pieces and combine them with Julia's, and ignore so much crap on the ground!!

St0rmie you just made my day. I'll hunt down this neck just for the lulz:lol:
Like you both and I said in OP, the set is not end game stuff (Unless your doing the tank role in HC I guess), but it's fun as hell. I usually see some DH or Wiz dying while standing with me after killing a molten pack. I'm doing T2-T3 so the set is helping me a lot. (Waiting for cindercoat ATM for awesome fire dps)
And about you? Do you love or hate this set?

You got immunity from Plaged, Dessacrate, Molten, freeze, immobilizing effects AND arcane. Sounds good to me:ph34r:
