Yes, I never see priests in front row and I never see them use shields 10%  10%  [ 3 ]
No, just because you are in second or third rank doesn't mean you don't need a shield if priests choose not to use on that's their fault 77%  77%  [ 23 ]

Don't delude yourself, just because I mentioned you doesn't mean I care at all. :o


Ok maybe a little

Just wait until I'm back home for a weekend or break from college. I know where you live, and am not afraid to bust in.

Before the big shield nerf (years ago), shields were by far the right decision for a priest's off-hand. In the last few years I played, they were marginally helpful when tanking but not worth fussing over. Even so, Frollith almost always wore a shield and cloth armor.


Thanks Frolly. Glad to know you're still alive. Come back and play, if


Thanks? Thanks for what? Do you think this proves you right? Frollith says shields were only marginally helpful and not worth fussing over? What that means to me is hold a shield if you have nothing better but they aren't really worth having.

I'm starting to figure you out a bit I think. You see only what you want to see. To me this doesn't support your position at all. All this says is Frollith would hold a shield for lack of anything better.

Inspite of all the attention grabbing by this fellow, believe it or not I can't remember his name and I don't want to scroll up while I type this to find it, it still looks like priests should have shield block. There's seven times as many people in favor of it as against.

No, what that means is that it does help but it has as much advantage as anything else. Therefore, it is balanced.

What it might also mean is Frollith didn't know where to get good scrolls/staves/items so he settled for a shield he enchanted up for himself.

Dralen: Jardek may not be able to use YIM at work, but he is on IRC. Stalk him on darkmyst #SKgunbound. :wink:

As far as priests and shield block... I used a shield with Adrienne, but not with Severa. Hard to tell the difference because they were such different builds and I was such a noob on Adrienne.

I would use a shield as a priest.

My opinion is fact. Bow down and stare in wonder at it.

I meant thanks for coming to post and saying hi.

Summ's already in. Gallus is STILL in, amazingly enough (he is older than sin now, I think). All we need is to convert tragonis!
