i have a shield handle of valor, +60 hp while hexed, it doesn't seem to want to attach to any of my shields, i'm a w/me, maybe its for a paragon or dervish? any ideas?

Is it a shield from NF?

Are you trying to put it on a shield that takes inscriptions?
If not there's your problem.

sir resnore · Jan 02, 2007, 12:11 AM // 00:11

i've tried on nf shields that take inscriptions, didn't work, would a prophecies inscribable shield work?

Hockster · Jan 02, 2007, 12:15 AM // 00:15

There's no such thing as Prophecies inscribable items. They only drop in Elona.

Shield handles are generic, they will work on any inscribable shield regardless of it's requirement.

thanks hockster, any reason why it woudnt work on inscribable shield bought from an elonian merch. oh also i forgot to add, its a character from prophecies.

Some of the weapon crafters offer already modded items. It's possible they can't be changed.

collector items cannot be changed and crafters items unless it says

Inscription:None
But if its a gold or purple Item It just has to have an Inscription Slot.

Hope that helps

Not entirely true. I had a bow drop from a chest in DoA. It was gold, had no damage mod and no inscription slot. The gold rating came from it's 20% Demon Slaying grip. I tried adding an inscription to it but it would not take it.

well, if the shield u bought gives health bonus, then it is moded already, however, because it cannot be removed, u cannot replace ur handle with the "invisible" 1.
Try the shields that are blank as in completely blank with nothing on it at all, maybe inscripable is fine, just no bonuses like health

You just said it had no inscription slot - thats why you cant add an inscription to it.
