Had some ideas today for rare accessories with abilities, what do you think?

(Ring) My Precious
Lore: One of the most powerful artifacts crafted by a group of Mages to use for protection when facing challenging predators.
Stats
Ability: Transforms into a ghost, cannot be targeted or damaged for 10 seconds. If the wearer uses any hostile actions, the effect is lost. 1 hour cooldown.

(Necklace) Eye of Medusa
Lore: The mythical creature known as Medusa who would petrify anyone who dared to challenge her. Legendary warriors who managed to defeat her pluck out her eyes to craft a powerful Necklace to use as an advantage in combat.
Stats
Ability: When attacking, there's a chance to petrify the target for 4 seconds. Petrified targets takes 15% less damage. 40 seconds cooldown.

Ancient's Bracelet
Lore: One of the many lost treasures from Ancient's technology that granted them the ability to move instantly over large distances.
Stats
Ability: Teleports group members to your location. 15 seconds fixed cast time. 15 hours cooldown.

Earring of RNGESUS
Lore: Legend has it this fine jewel was crafted by the Gods for crybabies when dealing with hard cc.

    That does sound like a great idea but I've not heard news of items giving skills

    The dead do not squabble as this land’s rulers do. The dead have no desires, petty jealousies or ambitions. A world of the dead is a world at peace

    Thanks, personally I like having very rare items in the game that gives something extra than just stats.

    It's an interesting idea but as Nagash said I don't think anything has been mentioned about this. I would assume items like this would need to be legendary in status though so very few people would have them.
    Future Py'rai (M) - Shaman, Enchanter, Soul Weaver, Templar, or Necromancer (Pending)
    Future Crafting Plans: Herbalism > Alchemy & Scribe or Mining > Metalworking > Jewel cutting (Pending)

    I would hope that there will be Trinkets or Rings with special effects that can either be procced or activated.

    Ocean's Heart:
    Ring - Epic
    Materials - Epic Quality Aquatic Sapphire x1, Ancient Quality Bronze x2, Rare Qualite Diamonds x8

    Effect - Every 10th attack coats the user in a protective film of healing water, healing the user for x amount every second for 3sec.

    Vulcanic Rage:
    Trinket - Epic
    Effect - Activate to summon a small vulcano at your location that will deal x amount of damage every second for 15sec to all enemies in a 5m radius, slowing them for the duration.

    Ideas for items are from various games i've played. Mostly old school.
    Ring - Skyrim become ethereal shout
    Necklace - Paralysis ring from Legend of mir 2
    Bracelet - Teleport ring from Legend of mir 2, and Gate chant from Doomcryer in Lineage 2
    Earring - Song of Purification from Sword Muse in Lineage 2
