Perhaps you're thinking that because of the bronze-silver-gold-platinum symbols of T'vyl. Those are dropped by the followers of Lanys T'vyl, who are currently hiding out in befallen. V'ri is someone different, although he/she could be a dark elf (they tend to have 's in their last names)

i belive he may have been refering to using this item IN befallen because of the variety of spells that are cast upon one in that zone. lots of magic, fire and ice spells so the resists wouldna be all that bad. maybe not, i just a dumb newbie
