Rhino beetles et al

Post by Luther »

Is it me or does the Rhino beetle shield suck? Seems like a lot of money and a long wait and it really doesn't do much. I got the reinforced large shield +2 pretty early on and it's as good as or better than even Orrick's upgrade of the beetle shield IMHO.

Yeah, its not just you. Its not that great.

One of them has 10% fire protection IIRC, could be handy. And its all quite light too.

I ended up buying Nym's upgrade and gave it to my mage/cleric. Worked out well for that character. Eh, it's only money.
