This thing looks really nice... ...except I have absolutely no magic spells and therefore no use for it. Darn. (I stole it along with a bunch of other nice goodies that would make a mage ooze with joy. I loved that convenient staircase.)
It's a shield. I've gotten this once or twice before, mostly before release. I even (accidentally) mentioned that I had a log in the irc and nobody noticed.
Yep, shield. I wonder how well this works with Shield Bearer. I thought it was a weapon at first. I wanted to see it's attack animation >:•)
"You have died to necropain because your +36 magic power is too much for your necro resistance to handle" (Though if you encrust your logs with a couple Very Holy Shields that will become quickly irrelevant )
