Anchor???
Event
Start each combat with 4 Block.
Anchor??? gives 4 Block at the start of every combat, flat and unaffected by Dexterity. The real Anchor gives 10. It is one of nine knock-offs sold by The Merchant???, who stocks six of them at 50 Gold each; that event only appears from Act 2 on, in solo runs, when you carry at least 100 Gold or a Foul Potion.

When to take Anchor???
Buy it only as cheap filler when 50 Gold has nothing better to do, since 4 Block barely covers a weak hit. A Foul Potion turns the fake merchant into a pile of relics instead.
