Salvaging a tormented item
I think the Note on salvaging needs a better explanation. Can someone actually describe what happens if you try to salvage it? I'm not rich or stupid enough to try myself. Guru post --Moeilijk 13:04, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
 * You can't salvage it Tomoko 14:48, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

It pretty much says you can't salvage it for crafting materials...but you can salvage it for mods. 72.94.140.236 03:54, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
 * And when you try to salvage it for mods, it can break (unless you use a perfect kit of course)--Lensor ( talk ) 16:11, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

 * It customizes when you display it in your HoM, but it doesn't come customized. --[[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon.png | Wyn's Talk page]] Wyn 14:44, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Awesome skin!
This is the best shield ever, only thing worth a armbrace in my opinion, gonna buy an armbrace soon, stil trying to decide which stat to get this shield with --C4K3 16:44, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
 * It is nice, but a bit overused -- at least in the GvG you see in observer mode. I swear, sometimes it feels like, *yawn* oh look, another squishie just pulled out a volatiac spear / tormented shield defense set. I'd probably use it if it fit one of my characters, though, but then, for many many reasons, I don't GvG myself :D. --Star Weaver 17:39, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Well you must admit it does look good with Voltaic Spears -- [[Image:User_C4K3_Signature.jpg]]C4K3 09:29, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Not really. At least, not when the VS is dyed black. The mismatched animations really just look kind've dumb. xP [[Image:User Bathory Spirit to Flesh.jpg|18px]] Bathory   talk  13:30, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah. I saw someone in OBSyland the other day that had a colored VS, blue maybe, with a shield that went, that looked so much better. And I saw plenty of people to whom I wanted to say "BLACK DYE DOSEN'T PROVE ANYTHING!" :P --Star Weaver 16:44, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Well black dyed VS is kinda ugly, mine is red -- which i think looks best C4K3 [[Image:User_C4K3_Signature.jpg]] Talk 12:25, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I bought a black VS. I dyed it white cause it fits my armour. I hate this "you have to dye everything black" rule. Tiberium 18:13, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
 * there isn't a "you have to dye everything black rule" it's just that some people legitimately like things dyed black.--173.59.59.80 22:29, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
 * My VS is red ^^, just kinda wish you could dye your torm shields C4K3 [[Image:User_C4K3_Signature.jpg]] Talk 13:26, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

i think this is a cool shield but i want to dye it pink--Gozu 19:32, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

Really looks like gungan shields in star wars: the phantom menace

Its fugly and it hasnt got a handel

Animation Bug Question
Apparently after 5 hours logged in, the animation of the shield will stop. It's not clear, however, who will see this bug in effect. As far as I can guess, it seems like a client-side bug, and all people who are logged for over 5 hours will see the animations stop, correct? For example, if I am logged for over 5 hours I will see my Tormented Shield animation frozen, but a friend who just logged in, will still see my shield animate? --Sensei 15:05, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
 * This is a well known animation issue with all the tormented weapons. -- Wyn [[Image:User Wynthyst sig icon2.png|19px ]] talk  15:17, 27 July 2009 (UTC)
 * That wasn't an answer to his question :P. I would like to know this answer as well. Power WM [[Image:Elementalist-tango-icon-200.png|19px]] 01:51, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't claim to be an expert, but I do believe it's a client-side bug, with this and Storm Bows and other extravagant animations. So yes. I don't see why it would work any other way. --70.158.147.185 18:23, 8 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Isnt it actually 8 hours the animation starts to stop. I always the the 8 hour message and things cease.--Nataliexxx 00:10, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
 * It's 5 hours, and it doesn't only affect the animation on the weapons, but other animations as well. I first noticed this when the fire in Gunnar's Hold stopped moving. So it's a GW global bug. 193.215.199.34 12:50, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

Why strength?
Why do people buy strength tormented shields for casters, instead of an attribute they might be able to run, like Command? - Xerxez 20:27, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
 * So they can sell it on to wars? -- smøni  20:28, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
 * but if you place it in HoM you cant sell it anny way, so if you are a caster and you will place it in HoM take a command or something84.192.125.45 00:42, 31 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Probably because when you don't match a shields attribute, you still get half the armor (8 in this case), and speccing an attribute for the full armor takes too many attribute points anyway 81.59.142.45 20:10, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
 * A monk'd buy tactics shield, tbh. For the rest, doesn't really matter (lolcommand). Thanks! NuVII  [[Image:User NuclearVII signature 3.jpg|19x19px]] 20:13, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
 * But monks don't spec 9 tactics, that is why they by Q8/16A or Q7/15A shields. 83.250.89.1 20:20, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Brave monks spec 11 tactics. Thanks! NuVII  [[Image:User NuclearVII signature 3.jpg|19x19px]] 21:04, 11 February 2010 (UTC)


 * If people already have one torm shield in HoM, a second one would alternate between chars (and not be dedicated). Wars can use str shields, and it doesn't matter for other characters (except for HA eles, who can use Command).  &mdash;  Raine Valen  [[Image:User_Raine_R.gif|19px]]  17:14, 30 Nov 2010 (UTC)

NuVII, a command shield would make more sense than a tactics shield, because these only come in req 9 and monks almost never go over 8 tactics, while monks with 9 or more command are very common in JQ. -- Kirbman 22:36, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

fortitude
Can you change the mod so it is say, enchanting?
 * that was me by the way Joe the pirate 04:14, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
 * You can change the mod, but you can't put Enchanting on a shield. &mdash;  Raine Valen  [[Image:User_Raine_R.gif|19px]]  14:26, 24 Feb 2011 (UTC)
