New Shield? - Guild Wars Forums

pappayaponta · Mar 12, 2006, 09:28 AM // 09:28

Yesterday I saw a guy in LA that sold a +5 energy shield, a runic shiled. This means that warriors can get 32 energy, MORE THEN RANGERS!!! Just if you have that shield and full gladiators, you reach 32 energy. Any1 else noticed this shield? Is it new?

It wasn't removed from the game, people just like to say that to mislead others and profit from their deceit.

it's a 6 armored collector shield that can be aquired outside of Frontier Gate.

it's rubbish imo you can get far better caster off hands that give more energy and similar armor bonuses, it would be awesome if the armor lvl was above say 14 i think

yeah you can get a healing ankh

+12 energy (req 9 healing)
+5 armor (while enchanted)
+45 health (while enchanted)

+12 energy
+armor 8 (>50% health)

+5 energy shields seem to appear all the time.. not enough people know they arnt rare and 'invest' thier shiny gold coins in a non-rare item. I think people have even tried to sell on high end. Maybe some people got scammed themselves and want the money back.

no matter how many times I post these things are just collector items, another 'scammer' or misinformed newb takes their place.

PS, scammers often pretend to be misinformed, hard to tell them apart (until they keep saying it's rare after you tell them about it, where to get, etc)

And an offhand tied into a secondary attrib is of course a better choice if you want energy.

From Gladiator's set, you can get 28 energy. Add an HoD sword and a Runic Shield, you can get up to 38 energy.

Btw, the shield is an easy collectors run outside of Frontier Gate. W/ a lvl 20 you can easily kill the devourers and get 4-5 shields in one run. It has low armor, so you might as well get an offhand that adds armor and has more energy.

Personally, if I want more armor AND energy, I use the Canthan Targe for a small bout of energy (+2) and it has 14 armor.
