Talk:Zodiac Shield

Just a note 2 weeks ago i got a Q9 Zodiac Shield Farming Vermin Normal Mode in skyway -Chris aka:Lustful Vengeance-
 * i don't think thats possible, you might mean Celestial Shield, i never saw a zodiac drop there, nor annyone except The Deep .. if you got a pic of the drop this might get confirmed tho. 84.192.144.207 11:36, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I just looked at this page, and it said it can't be dyed and dye effects the gemstones? Can it be dyed or not?
 * Can be dyed. The dye ONLY effects the gems. The shield color does not change. [~  Reaper  ~] 23:46, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

This Has Clipping Issius with male monk armor

Holy Shit
I just realized there's a face between the 2nd and 3rd gems. Apparently no one else had seen this either, when I mentioned it everyone was astounded. Anyone else seen this? 75.45.68.81 01:55, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Lolz you just noticed? There's alot of things like that, some people don't notice them and do a double take lolz.

Inscribable
Is it possible to get an inscribable version of this?--Wingsy 16:14, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
 * This is a little late but yes you can. i just got a q10 with an inscript a while agoDysfunctional 20:07, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Yeah got one from "Locked Chest" in Hm a week or so ago

Handles?
I have four of these shields now and I can't put a Handle on any of them. Does anyone know if they can take handles at all? Titan Crow 08:57, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Not unless they're from the end chest of the Deep/Urgoz will they take handles - otherwise bad luck you're stuck with the +29hp mods etc :( --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 08:58, 20 June 2011 (UTC)


 * As far as I can tell, only inscribable shields can take handles (as Alex notes, scriptful-Zodiacs only come from those two boss chests). — Tennessee Ernie Ford ( TEF ) 09:27, 20 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Alrighty then, back to the deep/warren to get them chests. Its a bit weird though, the staffs and some of the other Zodiac weapons that drop from the normal chests and some foes can fully modded with upgrades, just not inscriptions.

 * Well shield handles were only introduced with Nightfall - the other modifiers on staves/melee weapons/bows already existed at the time the elite factions missiosn were created. --[[Image:User_Chieftain_Alex_Chieftain Signature.png]] Chieftain  Alex 09:56, 20 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Ahh, now it makes sense! Cheers Chieftain. [[Image:User Tytan Crow Crow.jpg|20px]] Titan Crow  10:14, 20 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Yup, shields are similar to wands and focus items in that. They can't be upgraded at all if they aren't inscribable. That's why perfect oldschool (not inscribable ones) are usually more expensive than weapons, it's harder to obtain them as they must come with both mods perfect. Lhoj 10:18, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
