Holy mantle

holy mantle is a miscellaneous item in item asylum. When used, it appears to be a white pulsing light coming out of the player's torso.
== Functionality ==
holy mantle has no visual appearance when held out normally.
Upon use of holy mantle, a title bar with "HOLY MANTLE" and "Holy shield" will appear on the top of the player's screen accompanied with an angelic choir and the player starts to emanate a faint blue glow from their torso. This removes the item from the user's inventory. A cross icon is then displayed near the front of the HP GUI on the player's screen, indicating it is available. Upon taking damage, holy mantle will break and negates that instance of damage; producing a cross effect and an accompanying shattering sound. Upon it breaking, the player is left invulnerable for 1.5 seconds while rapidly flashing white. holy mantle will then go on a cooldown, requiring around 26 seconds or dealing 170 damage to fully recharge.
Unlike most items, holy mantle's effect stays active for up to 2 respawns. After the third respawn, holy mantle will no longer take effect. However, if another holy mantle is used while one is currently active, it will persist for an additional 3 respawns.
=== Notes ===
*The item can not be recharged while flickering, only being able to recharge after the invincibility is over.
*holy mantle will carry over if the user happens to switch teams, such as dying in ZS.
*holy mantle's protection will break as long as an enemy deals any type of hitbox/hitscan "damage", even if said damage is 0 (e.g. abyssal scream, golf club's Execute and judgement's detection hitbox, tongue's hitbox).
**Teammates do not trigger holy mantle.
*holy mantle will not protect against self-inflicted damage, such as one's own bobm on a stick explosion.
*Some item affects do not trigger holy mantle; see bonk's Notes section for items and effects that are unable to trigger holy mantle, though with a few exceptions.
** The reflected grand javelin, grand volley, and percutiens do trigger holy mantle.
** Any hitbox-based items and physical projectiles mentioned do trigger holy mantle.
**death note triggers holy mantle's effect.
**All Isle items (except for steel sword and grenade launcher) are unable to target and lock onto anyone with holy mantle active. If they were to get into the line of fire, it will also prevent any damage.
**the button's explosion will not trigger holy mantle.
*Enemies breaking holy mantle counts as a "missed hit" for effects that would occur after the attack (such as allusions' Parry, intervention's quickscope, or mimicry's Onrush and Great Split: Vertical).
*holy mantle's protection will take priority over any counter/parry effects, such as franklin badge with electric items, tiger drop, and ultra instinct with small pebble.
*Invincibility provided by respawning or energy drink will prevent holy mantle from breaking. 
**Most forms of intangibility do also prevent it from breaking, however there are a few exceptions. Intangibility provided by bonk, scales of horror, or dodging with legion kata will still trigger holy mantle's effect.
== Tips ==
* Use holy mantle at the earliest convenience, as its protection may save the user from a lot of lethal items if ever being targeted.
* Try to avoid charging in recklessly whilst under the protection of holy mantle, It may provide invincibility for a short moment, but does not mean you are unkillable. 
* Try to save holy mantle for things such as insta-kills, like bobm or gender reveal.

== Trivia ==
* holy mantle is a direct reference to the Holy Mantle item from The Binding of Isaac, more specifically its iteration in the Repentance DLC.
** The tooltip mentions the Holy Card, a consumable card that grants a one-time Holy Mantle-like effect until damaged.
*Isle items (except steel sword and grenade launcher) normally cannot target onto those with holy mantle active. However, if someone with an active holy mantle were to walk into the line of fire of a ranged Isle item, the Isle item player will continue to permanently aim and suffer the walkspeed penalty.
