Ithzir Armor
Ithziri armor is a combat script that is found on armor which provides several useful benefits. First introduced during Ebon Gate 2013, the armor is not sold off the shelf. The armor has only been obtainable in the past by merchants offering to add it to existing armor. This service is very rare to be seen done.
Starting in August 2017, automated unlocking certificates were sold in the high end services shop at Duskruin Arena on a limited basis in the form of an epistle.
Unlock Tiers
Ithziri armor consists of four different trees that can be unlocked to gain additional benefit. When unlocking is offered, it is typically for a single unlock. The armor has a total of 16 unlocks available, but is limited to 9 total unlocks max.
Base functionality of the armor includes:
- 3 charges / day
- Each unlock increases max daily armor charges by 1
- Tier 0 Escape Flare

Analyze
You analyze your leathers and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions. The creator has also provided the following information: This leathers offers a chance to interrupt an attack when you are stunned, webbed, rooted, immobilized, unconscious, or prone. This is Base armor, and will fire up to 9 times per day to move you in a random direction. It has special messaging for WEAR, REMOVE, and CLEAN. It can be altered freely, within normal armor altering guidelines. Because some of the messaging refers to buckles and straps, nothing that completely conflicts with that concept should be done. This leathers is at unlock level 3. Flare Chance Tree: Tier 0 Status Condition Tree: Tier 2 Healing Tree: Tier 0 Charges / Escape Tree: Tier 1 You can tell that the leathers is as light as it can get.
Escape Flare Functionality in Hunting Grounds
Ithzir armor escape flares wont trigger in many hunting grounds (OTF, Rift/Scatter, Sanctum, Nelemar). The general understanding is if you cant fog into an area, then the flares wont work. However this is inconsistent because they do work in the confluence. The tier 4 SLAP ability in the escape tree also will not work. They will work inside of towns and are useful in invasions.
