weapon?[edit]

Why is it names Aegis (weapon) as far as I know a shield is not a weapon but an armor, I suggest moving it to Aegis (shield) --MageUser MageMontu sig.pngMontu 18:53, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Did you...check history first? It's already been (shield). However, I'm curious as to how that came about, though, and why it's related to Club of a Thousand Bears (weapon). --Chaiyo Kaldor talk contribs 18:57, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
To tell the truth I did not check history, but it's kinda obvious that a shield is an armor and not a weapon. --MageUser MageMontu sig.pngMontu 18:59, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
That's why I'm curious. Maybe someone involved in the move can help us out with this... --Chaiyo Kaldor talk contribs 19:00, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
History says that it was Zerpha The Improver that moved the page. --MageUser MageMontu sig.pngMontu 19:05, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
Well, yeah, but I can't imagine he came up with that decision on his own. At least, don't think he did. Anyway, my summary for that post was "Hint hint," so I really wasn't directing that at you, and more at someone who can answer our question. --Chaiyo Kaldor talk contribs 19:10, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
oh I c ^^ well since there is nothing written in the talk page, no archive and no history about it, I think he/she just moved it. Anyone else thing we should move it bk to (shield)? --MageUser MageMontu sig.pngMontu 19:25, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

If there are no objections, I'm moving it back to Aegis (shield) tomorrow evening (GMT time) --MageUser MageMontu sig.pngMontu 21:47, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Moved --MageUser MageMontu sig.pngMontu 19:49, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Oh, sorry guys for causing that confusion. I mentioned the Club of a Thousand Bears (weapon) when moving the page as it also used "weapon" as disambiguation, not "hammer", so i thought a move to "Aegis (weapon)" would make things more uniform. Well, i personally didn't see a problem why a shield shouldn't be a weapon, at least game-technically. :P —ZerphatalkThe Improver 20:17, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
"Weapon" in GW is used as a generic term for both weapons and off-hands equipment. So 'weapon' was correct. MithUser MithranArkanere Star.pngTalk 22:48, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Strength versions, really?[edit]

The main article says these can be Tactics of Strength. I've played for years and seen more than my fair share of gear trading, and I've never seen or heard of these with a requirement other than Tactics. Can anyone confirm these exist with a Strength requirement? Thanks! EDIT - I'm suspecting this may have been mislisted when the article was first created after looking at the history.

After about a week, I can't find anyone who even claims to be positive they've seen a non-Tactics version. I don't mean to imply things can't possibly exist unless I've seen them - far from it! I simply think it's likely that Strength was a mistake to being with here, and the article was incorrect. I edited the main page to take Strength out of the list of possible attributes.

I changed the shield article accordingly, since it seems nobody else did. --Life Infusion «T» 17:19, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
