Boots of the Mountain King, Greater

These rough-looking boots are made of craggy leather that resembles a rough granite cliff face, and they are shod with thick iron.

While wearing greater boots of the mountain king, you can move more easily than usual over rough and difficult terrain.

These boots allow you to ignore increased movement costs and skill check DC increases for light and dense rubble. In addition, you can move up stairs and slopes at normal speed and run or charge downhill without making a Balance check (see Steep Slopes). This require no activation.

In addition, you can activate greater boots of the mountain king to gain the benefit of a stoneskin spell. This ability functions once per day.

Prerequisites: Craft Wondrous Item, freedom of movement, stoneskin.
