Shields!!!!!!!!!!

[old.Gromnir]

Why would I buy a Duskwood qua 100% shield ? What will it do for me ?

 

[Krakatau]

As said in a grabbag or something similar...
Quality increase the chance to block- It's that simple

 

[Fafnir]

I thougth i explained that to you last nite. You block like a kobold warrior on speed, when he is using a drop shield...

 

[old.Torden]

How much will a lvl 50 100% quality medium shield cost?

 

[Fafnir]

think it was about 40 gold if it is success on the first go, then 7 gold per try. But its up to the crafter.

 

[old.Gromnir]

Good now all we need is crafters telling us where to find them and what to pay

if you want to order masterpieces, wait untill next patch.

(Blixt also told me last night that quality on shields doesnt do anything in the current patch... again wait untill next patch)

Well to my own experience qua have something to do with shields, i used a GA shield think it has +4 to shield, i never got of a chain with revenge, thor's hammer against trow trollkarls, then i tried out my 99% enchanted duskwood shield and with that i blocked alot more and took down otm trollkarls only using revenge and thor's answer, well not on every mob, but i was blocking lot more than with the GA shield. Perhaps only thx to the 10% more bonus or perhaps to the 10% more qua. Or both

 

[Perplexed]

Yeah that would be the bonus

Actually bonus only applies to chance to hit/miss. Increases chance to hit with weapon and decreases chance of enemy hitting you on armour. As shield is technically a weapon, it only affects how well you land your shield styles.

You'd need test data from about 1000 fights before you could even start comparing statistics.
