Shield Forging - Possibly Inflammatory 06/21/2007 12:27 PM CDT
I'm sorry if this opens up a can of worms, or beats a dead horse. Or maybe if it beats a dead horse which has a lot of worms inside of it. But when, if ever, will paladins be able to forge metal shields? It just doesn't seem right to me that they can't - is Forging 2.0 the answer?

The only thing I can think of is that, in a game where festival/old weapons and armor have become obsolete to forged gear, are shields held out as the last vestige of something being better from the old days?

There has been talk of such forging. The last thread was a long time ago though.

I seem to remember the GMs saying that at least it would be possible to forge bands as part of the shield. but nothing has been said recently. I suspect that it's one of the things that's waiting on the forging rewrite.
