Laying of Hands is part of The Disciple set, an odd, caster-focused set that almost everybody will probably outgrow before they manage to collect all its constituent parts. Like Orphan’s Call, the individual items are often more interesting than the entire set - although its complete set bonuses are fairly good. Case in point, Laying of Hands, which, despite the set bonuses, is one of the more useful gloves in the game for physical damage dealers like Amazons, Barbarians, and some Paladins. This is due to its “+20% Increased Attack Speed” and “+350% Damage to Demons”, the latter of which is a substantial boost in damage to effectively all the game’s act bosses.

The Disciple is one of those odd sets which has exceptional and elite components, meaning taht while the whole set has a low iLv (39), many of the component set parts are elite quality gear. As for Laying of Hands, their base item (Bramble Mitts) is a case-in-point, being elite Leather Gloves. Hell Andariel and Mephisto are good bosses to farm for these.
