More Shields.

Postby cellites » Fri Sep 20, 2019 3:35 am

So having given it a decent amount of thought i think i have a few ideas for some relatively interesting new shield concepts.

first off i think the wooden shield is fine the way it is, but i have some ideas for additions. primarily i think the addition of special gilding for shields would be a good idea. For example a metal reinforcement that gives a percentage boost to durability and a small increase to armor value +0/+1 at q10 or something. i also think something like a gold/silver banding would be interesting for an increase to charisma or will, or as an alternative allowing us to socket gemstones into a shield.

Secondarily i do think the addition of specifically two new metal shields would be a solid addition. the first of these would be a kite/round shield what would have more armor deflect but less armor soak then wooden shields, as well as an increase to durability. the second being a tower shield, i would imagine it to be an extremely defensive piece of armor that would have very high soak and deflect but would come at the cost of a reduction to dexterity and an increase to combat cool down.

We specifically don't have rules about locking or discussing old threads here because we want you to find that old thread, especially if you have something to add that hasn't been discussed. We just don't want people bumping old threads with no added content. If the old thread is in an archived forum, PM a moderator or jorb and we'll usually move it for discussion.
