Armor of Ill Defense

This suit of bronze breastplate looks and feels like the beneficial magical version, and performs normally in minor conflicts. If the owner is beset by three or more opponents, however, or has lost a third of his hit points in an ongoing combat, the armor’s curse kicks in. The armor then disintegrates completely, leaving only a fine coating of dust and the owner with no protection.
