Items that avoid projectiles

Hi guys,
Im building a harbinger atm and my goal with this character is to achieve 100% dodge attacks and avoid projectiles. I'm aware of most of the epic and legendary armour that have these properties, I wanted to know if anybody has found any rare(green) items that have a noticeable value of avoiding projectiles. Also if anyone's found any relic or artifact bonuses with avoiding projectile percentages?

I'm actually doing the same thing with my Lvl 35 Slayer. Right now I'm at a 98% chance of dodging projectiles and about 53% chance of dodging melee. I must tell you now that this character is very tricky to build simple because the bulk of your items will be incorperated of unique items, such as any weapons/Shields with "trickery" in the title. As for armor I'd suggest using using the dune raiders harness, I've found some armor with 20+ dodge %'s. Also I'd suggest wearing the dune raiders bracers, they also give a meaty dodge property. I'll give you a complete run-down on my dodge build later on as I'm like half asleep while typing this lol.

Thanks for responding to my post. Anyway, the harbinger is now level 52 and is still undefeated(0 deaths) at this point after beating Barmanu in Epic Asia. Ive found alot of great rare equipment with avoid properties. This includes an Accursed charm of guile that has 17% avoid projectiles. Also after doing some some farming in the valley of the kings Ive managed to find rare items which are called Revenant Plates and revenant gauntlets. These items contain the properties of your normal rares like veteran's, Juggernaut's etc except for the major bonus of adding 1 to all skills. Thats just their properties in normal i went on to farm the same area in Legendary and found that the same gear gives 2 to all skills. So definitely worth farming. Anyway, my harbinger is at 100% avoid and 93% dodge attacks. The only attacks that seem to do damage are plague attacks,life leeches and energy leeches. Is there any point of having any elemental or stun resistance?

Only things you cant dodge are spells. And Typhons energy Nexus. Lol its me elusive btw. I use all revenant gear. Oh and yes you should have elemenal resists. Most elemental attacks are indeed spells and in epic/legendary that could mean life or death at any level. Did you take that monkey's trickery out of tht accursed charm I traded you lol. I found another 3rd parolax shield that offered 23% to dodge attacks and 20% to avoid projectiles attacks.Also I found quite a few items with about 23% chances to avoid projectiles in the gorgon cave "Guard Cuirass, Armbands."

Hey that was you lol small world! And i found a veteran's suit of the glade 30% Avoid projectiles couldnt believe my luck! My harbinger finally died

. He was level 54 and basically nothing could touch him... That is until the bull in epic asia. Just took one of his circular fire attacks and it zapped my health even tho i had an allies heat shield on and a 78% resistance to all things elemental. I also had battle standard up maxxed out. Furthermore, i had 20%damage resistance so i really dont understand how i could've died in that spot. I had at least 100% res to all the secondary resistances(vit,sleep,stun,skill,enrgy). Does anyone know how i could have died there?

Lol thats EXACTLY where I died, and I had 80% elemental resistance. I later went back and fought him again and activated the elemental shield scroll and then I beat him like nothing.
