Tiny shields, a Blizzard theme

Cheers.

Furyeclipser’s image makes it clear that this is not a buckler. It’s a shield.

And the video I linked talks about small shields as well.

Cheers.

Well, you could ask for the buckler to scale more with different races instead of asking the shield to be changed in general.

Unless…

Wait, nevermind. This shield is perfectly fine on bigger races.

Small shield or big, Meteorshower, Arcane or Chaos bolt; they will melt you and demons will tear you apart nonetheless

With love,

Magic users

Ehm… I have not tested that with Tauren.
On that picture it looks good. But on other races it is tiny.
Wtf. I don’t know if I should buy it now or not.

Why don’t you, take the character you want to use the appearance on and test it in the trader’s post ?

Cheers.

Check the 3D view

and you will see that the shield is placed correctly on the tauren.
On tauren it looks good. On other races it looks smaller.

well, there are 4 shields on the trading post this month so it seems like you have 3 big and 1 small.
Sounds okay to me.

I did not expect to learn this much about bucklers today. And that’s just the introduction!

Thank you.

To be fair, having a few more towershields would not hurt. Personally I love the fantasy of them being wielded by legendary warrior entities.

If I can carry around a maze that would break a blacksmith’s wrists trying to lift it, I am certain I can lift a small wall of steel as well.

Magical properties and all that. The greater surface, the bigger the wards. Size matters!

… maybe.

For me big shields, should be something dropped from Raids.
That’s where epic gear and looks are for: tanking ginormous Raid bosses.
2 examples from TBC:

One thing I love about the trading post is: you can find simple stuff a normal recruit would use on his everyday training.
Like for example:

We talked him into doing some banter and fun on the forums. I’m glad we did.

Now, I’m sure he was told to not do this somewhere somehow. Advised, perhaps.

But that was boring. I’m loving this. And I’m loving the fact that he’s only been attacked by like 1 or 2 people so far. Most people understand the truth: He can’t answer just about everything all the time about gameplay related suggestions.

I hope it stays this way.

In my case, I think I need to start being careful with what I say :shushing_face:
Last week, I said that I hated, when a new piece of gear, would drop, on a dungeon and I had to equip it, in the middle of the run, to improve my character stats and ruin my transmogg in the process, if it was something outside a ring, neckless or trinket.

We got the Ethereal Transmogrifier. Now you can change the appearance of your gear anywhere you are :smiley:

Cheers.

Me too! Poor Blues usually cant make any comment on the forum without people derailing the topic and demanding they fix X, Y and Z about the game…no wonder they all went into hiding!
I miss the days of Blues on the forum and those Blue robes wandering around in the game itself.

Also I love that buckler. It seems very themed around an Orc warrior and really they arnt going to use their shield for protection…
probably just there to bash you in the face with and maybe as a tea tray for after battle snacks.

Good news: They’re back! Seriously! Look around. I’m so happy about this.

Same, at least leaves the impression they are here.

But what if…

They are all chatbots? :dracthyr_uwahh_animated:

We are all bots in man’s clothing.
