So I saw a pair of boots with consecrated ground. any class can wear them.

 

But when I equipped them, the spell did not show up in the characters hud.

 

for example, when I have added other spellbind items, they show up by the talents.

 

 

is this bugged?

It activates automatically in a fight when character takes damage

It activates when you get hit by a critical hit. Im still wearing mine, they have saved my life many times over

Hmm that seems like it would be really good for my monk, I remember seeing them but I can't find them in my inventory...  sad, lol.

They're sold by the Crucible Knights vendor.  Shod-In-Faith.

Oh alright, saw them but didn't buy them.  Thank you.

Are there any other items that proc when you take a crit? Combining them with a low deflection character + Girdle of Mortal Deflection seems interesting.

Spell Holding means that the spells only activate upon a critical strike. I remember there's a dagger which casts jolting touch on critical strike.
