Even though the opening sentence of the thread was, "Please explain to me how a sheild helps you hit better."?

Mercenary.. are you reading my posts at all?

I'm well aware that those shields exist, in fact I'm holding one right now. But if the replica Order shield is going to have HCI, then shields should spawn with HCI. It's called "consistency". That's what I'm talking about. Sure, keep HCI on shields, but spawn them as well.

To disagree with my friend and ally, there should be no spell channeling shields with FC1, then.

You would also have to eliminate every single pre-AoS Invulnerable shield in the game as well, as no shields currently spawn with that many resistances before enhancement.

Very true. Well, I'm sure you know that I'm of the opinion that every thing in this game should be nerfed hard, but for the sake of not derailing the thread and ranting about all items, I'm just going to stick to the belief that shields should spawn with HCI if HCI is going to be on the replica shield. Consistency. That's all I'm saying.

Yes, even though the title of the thread ASKED how a shield helps you hit better.

A simple answer would be:

"Because some shields have HCI on them."

Nobody screamed gimmie gimmie gimmie!!!! or nerf nerf nerf!!! It was a mere question, it did not invoke harsh statements.

But atleast there is some consensus (albeit with tangent remarks) with everyone who replied to this thread that HCI on shields, in one way shape or form, needs to be changed.

Agreed, let them spawn again.

Ouch guys sorry I opened a can of worms did not mean for it to get this crazy. Just wanted to see ideas that people had. I liked Dip's idea of caps and slots on shield according to size etc. Makes so much sense and would be consistant and make most people happy. Anyway next time it gets this crazy head to Fel and settle it there; just no HCI DCI shields...lol.....bad joke but i had to get it in...lighten up guys it's just a game.....if u want more jokes I will behere all night folks...........

It's not your fault Araevin, you're always a positive poster.

edit: I would just lock this thread, people are just going to continue to post negatively, for whatever reason they so choose.

A thread shouldn't be locked simply because other people have opposing viewpoints or stand by their opinions. It is not a one-sided discussion.

Mercenary · 5th November 2006, 01:46 AM

True, you are right on that. However, I'm now done posting in this thread, thanks

Aye but it can be done in a much more positive way, than flaming each other... that made me sad to see that sense we have always done better =/

*Note I know I quoted you Terrance, because I wanted to reply to you have typed but the message I type was for everyone. Just to make sure you do not feel I am only directing it to you because then that would be bad =/*

Anyway yeah ^_^ It is time to drop the thread do not want to hurt people... =(
