I heard about the shield recently and rather annoyed about it too. Stefan was saying when I released Forest shields to EVENT them to the PUBLIC. These shields are GIVEN to their members =/ Forest shield had ac+2 but was lowered to 1 but these shields have pow+1 AND wis+1? That's insane, that makes Forest shield practically inferior. Reason - because Arcane shield was the same? What kinda crap is that? Add INT or something like a resistance or speed to compramise...not a stat that's solely better than it's original state. Heh, maybe I should use this as an excuse to improve my Forest shield and we have this cycle of unbalancing the economy continue?

Edit: Did I mention this is the SECOND event type shield Zormite has?
