Thoughts on shields...

Mirrored Shield of Brilliance (or Brilliant Mirrored Shield)
Ability: when an NPC make a successful attack against you, you have a XX% chance of reflecting a small % back at the NPC

shield that grants an ability to 'disarm' / 'trip' / 'force' the enemy to lose a turn?

just a random idea ~ i thought i'd put light to it...



see: shield as weapon

Like the Taunt skill? I love it.

i want it to have three 'spikes',
two in the front - by the fist ~ for disarming...
one in the back - by the elbow ~ for attacking...

~ ~ ~

this might need to be a legendary shield?
or an amazing reward...

i will make the image for it, [if need be]
that first one was just to give an idea about it's shape...

To make this more attractive to a defensive build, I would rather see the retaliation hit occure on a successful block.

That sounds more like a shield of parry than a mirrored shield.

Either one IMO would be a great addition to the game.

Shield of Parry

Was sitting in the classroom, so thought might as well use my dormant brain

I had suggested this before in another topic, and its another way for dealing with inflicted conditions. Meant to be a Legendary item

Reflective shield - upon being hit by a monster that can inflict a condition, you have a 50% chance of the condition inflicting the monster instead of you. To make it more special, it could also provide 15-20% BC and no reduction in AC.

O how I would love to see the spiders, irdeghs and izthiel slowly bleeding to death by their own venoms!
