I'd guess it refers to this:
CODE
o The resistance granted by greatshields will be reduced by 40% when
wielded by a player of a non-warrior class.


How very curious. I wouldn't have guessed it'd actually be reflected in places other than within the code of the game itself.

I wonder - what are the statistics like for non-great shields? Would the use of those designs be better for casters now with the 40% malus given to casters using greatshield designs? If there's certifiable proof of normal shields > greatshields for casters, I'm gonna be needing to start designing more.

What does 'it is slightly worn' mean on wp'ing a shield?

If you're writing a paper about the cultural impact of a specific book on a specific country or countries (in this case, the effect of Orti's "On Chaos and Order" on Hallifax-Gaudiguchian relationships) it is helpful to cite the correct catalogue number for the libraries involved.

I don't think it makes any sense to base citations on the particular numbering in a particular library -- not least because it can change if the item is ever unshelved and reshelved, as well as because it varies from library to library. Citations should be by title and year of publication.

Even if they're not better, they're probably not worse, and certainly a lot cheaper. I think we're going to see more regular-shield designs since, before now, there's never been a use for them. Who knows, maybe someday there'll be a reason to make scale and chain armor!

If that's the case, then there would never been a reason to use great-shields again since Warriors don't actually use shields.

How can I change the title of the clan leader? For example: The Administrator of Disciples of Klangratch is Lady Malicia La'Saet, Aegis General.
But for mine it's: The Clan head of House Ves'ril is Archmage Aeral Ves'ril, Lady of the Shining Storm.

That's for a different promotion done a couple months ago, but you can only claim the credits on characters other than your main that is linked to your account.

I don't remember that being the wording for membership credits. Maybe those are from that ridiculous alt promo?

How do I Deep Pact another Demon Lord? Do you have to break the Deep Pact first now? Everyone has told me you just re-deep pact over after putting in the spikes, but it hasn't worked. And yes, I have put in enough spikes.

Edit: I just broke the pact and then re-did the normal pact, then re-did the Deep Pact, for a total of 30 power. Is there a better cost-effective, cheaper way to do it?
Calixa2011-08-03 23:06:39
....you have to put in spikes? So confused now, I don't recall that part sad.gif I'd think this is the only way to do it yeah, if what you tried first doesn't work. Try and see if you can get a hold of any Nihilists that changes deep-pacts ingame and ask.

Has anyone done any tests on regular shields to see what the stats can be like with greatshield-esque labor?
Qistrel2011-08-04 01:34:23
I've been told by forgers that they can't get a normal shield higher than my 22/24 (from 37/50) greatshield. They haven't put effort into though.
