Of course, I'd very much like to see Mia's armor make it in to the game someday... [img]/Web//emoticons/emotion-2.gif[/img]

Me too! As well as that backflip special she does in one of the trailers.

Oh btw, I do like that shield. It's nice.

I hope its a lvl 100 shield with 200 armor and +80 block,
else it won't scare the fiakky ^^

[Baldrick]

there was a short time (way back before merge and before the big patch) where shields also have a diifferent look, but only the fine small bronze shield. you could change it to the look like the old knox shield looks ore the moss-shield and other very fine lookings. Please put that back in and also for the other shield-sizes (medium and large)...

[kengar]

What is it, you might be asking? Well, its a new shield. And its made of WOOD as well as metal... So perhaps Druids can use it.... [img]/Web//emoticons/emotion-16.gif[/img]

Would this be an additional teaser, that Druids are going to loose their existing ability to use metal shields? I like it. Not sure a real druid would rather know a tree gave its life for a shield, but I'm only a quilt-druid (mostly for the group buffs, not even the AoE nuking). Means I'll need more room in my vault if I can't use my existing shields, but since I dislike large shields when not in melee mode anyway, it even that means it would just replace the medium shield I already have that I use in Healer mode.

A wooden shield would be more friendly to the druid if he/she accidently miss fires a lightning bolt :P

[Mandovar]

i would like a Shield in the Colors of Guilds. Hope it comes too someday.

[Royal]

this shields will be in the new sets/loot tables also?

[AmonGwareth]

Yep!

[Pharcellus]

Nice looking shield Amon, but not a patch (pun intended) on this one:

from pre-release days. Or this:

If only, huh? [img]/Web//emoticons/emotion-29.gif[/img]

"Hotlinking not permitted." from your own software, no less. [:P]

Maybe your evil twin installed that.

[Snowdonia Honeythorn]

lol No he did, he just missed those in the move. I'll go fix it now. : )

Malt: would you mind editting those links by taking out images/hz and adding temp please? I'd like to keep incorrect links off the forums so the hubby doesn't keep getting error messages. :P

When you think about it there are two basic things about MMOG's:

1) Grinding Adventure
2) Grinding Craft

What sets games apart is not how you grind, but the Fluff[img]/Web/emoticons/emotion-1.gif[/img]. That is really what these games are about. Options options options and more options. Be the options quests or furiture or plots or clothes or races or classes or whatever.

Yup so where is the fluff at here? This game is seriousely lacking in that aspect.
