| Please avoid comparing shields that were "fixed" after-the-fact (you'd have received a message about the shield feeling less hindering when it corrected itself). The formula to fix them just dropped them to the lowest allowable hindrance for non-rare metal leather and it did not try to figure out exactly what their stats should have been. Such a complex mechanism would have seen shield making turned off for a few more weeks :(
Anyhow, I'll go whip up some damaska vs shalswar targes later and see if I can duplicate what you are seeing. I did a few dozen test shields this past weekend and everything seemed OK, but who knows.... And yes this is confusing for people but are absolutely necessary for this mess of legacy junk to have any semblance of balance in the end. I just could not allow a small tanned shield to have 95% the stats of a larger and more hindering metal shield. | |
