Named after the Monty Python sketch?

I think you'll find all of the White Mantle/Peacekeeper greens have names relating to zealotry so it's probably just a coincidence. Unless there is correlation other than the name, I doubt it's the case. 58.106.158.34 16:47, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
well there are also items like Law and Order, so Anet possibly tried to find cultural references while still keeping to that theme. —ZerphatalkThe Improver 13:15, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
ANet missed an opportunity, I think. If only they had named the spear "Ruthless Efficiency" and paired it with this shield. --Valentein 20:28, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

Notes[edit]

Since when did clipping issues qualify as notes? 58.106.158.34 16:44, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

Clipping issues with the face it says? What kind of weapon has a clipping issue with a face? Don't see a pic of this one yet. Tender WolfUser Tender Wolf sig.png 01:04, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
Oops, just realized it's a shield hehe, so depending on its size I guess that makes sense. Though you'd think it would have clipping issues with everyone's face while they're under the effect of a speed boost. Meh, I'm just curious to see what it looks like. :D Tender WolfUser Tender Wolf sig.png 01:05, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
When assassins are under IMS, they run "funny" with their body twisted sideways a little bit, and that's probably what puts the shield in their face. I'd imagine this to be the case with most large shields, though. User Rose Of Kali SIG.jpgRose Of Kali 07:58, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
It wouldn't hurt for the note to say "Has clipping issues" or "This shield has clipping issues" instead of plain blunt "Clipping issues" as long as it's there. It took me a while to understand the note like this. // HeavenMonkey User HeavenMonkey signature.png 23:36, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

Stats[edit]

I've always wondered just how useful the typical -5 damage or whatever mods are. The mod on this one is pretty interesting, considering that the point of a paragon is to spam stuff instead of tanking or suffering damage like Warriors or Monks. Would a shield like this see any actual use in either PvE or PvP because of this mod? Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ аІiсә User Aliceandsven 1.png ѕνәи Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ 20:49, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

Paragon usually play imbagon and as an imbagon a mod with -5/20 is nice because you will be the one that gets targeted most often in regular play because you have the lowest armor. In organized play an imbagon usually will want a shield with -20% blind or a +10 armor mod in it. This mod isn't really all that great for an imbagon. But for other paragon builds it is because it increases dps a tiny bit.

I don`t know where to drop the point, but I got it from a Shaemoor Gate Guard. I got a screen but don`t know how to put it here. byebye Diors olen --The preceding unsigned comment was added by User:213.93.97.233 (talk).

Was it from a Warrior or Paragon Shaemoor Gate Guard? Manifold User Manifold Neptune.jpg 22:40, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
