Mirrored Tablet

Every area and map you enter in 3.19 may have a Mirrored Tablet used for constructing your Lake of Kalandra. Each Tablet allows you to place 1-3 Reflections (Encounters) on the Lake, and completely filling it allows you to run it and reap the rewards you've worked for.

Rewards

Reflecting Mist

Certain encounters in the Lake of Kalandra will create a Reflecting Mist altar to appear, offering you a choice between two mirrored rare rings or amulets with unusual mods. Some are scaled-up versions of existing modifiers, while others are strong negative versions of the same modifier. The rings provide inverse stats; a negative mod on one ring is positive on the other. The magnitude of the modifiers is dependent on the difficulty of the completed encounter. You may only pick one of these items to take.

Sometimes, it may offer a ring basetype exclusive to the Lake of Kalandra and likewise contains alternate effects based on which ring slot they are equipped into:
