Alternatives to Shavronnes Wrappings

This is all IMO

I think there needs to be alternatives to shavronnes. Shavronnes should still be the best option for a low life char who wants chaos damage to go through ES but it shouldn't be the only. It limits the vast majority of the player base from ever playing a low life build, which isn't fun. There needs to be a cheaper alternatives in the form of a keystone and/or a unique.

so you say there should be an alternative for every key unique for specs aswell? how about a BoR alternative for the facebreak/bor build? or an alternative to lionseyes glare etc pp. you could just simply save your currency till you can afford one (and this is coming from a player who never had more than 12 exalts at a time)

No that's not what I'm saying, I think you're missing the point. There are a lot of items and even some quality skill gems that benefit from on low life. Running a low life build opens up a lot of builds and options. The only way to truly take utilize those is through a shavronnes wrappings which most of the players base will never have.

BOR and Lioneyes don't don't really let you utilize other items and skill gems in new ways like a shavronnes does.

(and this is coming from a player who can afford a 6L shavronnes)

The best counter to chaos damage is to just avoid getting hit by it, it's not like it's been put into the game as something you should be tanking, just move out of the way !

You'll never get away as a low life build trying to just dodge chaos damage. Poison arrow and the poison trap are fairly big aoe.
