Base AC on all true shields increased 5 points, with a corresponding decrease in upgrade costs. As usual, the difference has been applied to existing shields, with a refund for anything left over. Penalties to DX and magic increased by one point.
Buckler of Mandos gets a 2-point increase in AC; no changes to bonus/penalties. MgS completely unchanged.

my shields!
Will the money come back to me from ones in rentals when I get them back? or does the person renting it get it?

Actually, just to clarify, a +10 BoM still give 10% boost?
Jon "Buckler of Mandos gets a 2-point increase in AC; no changes to bonus/penalties" to answer your question sssimmo

This calls for wiki changes. I've started it off by editing the list of armor pages.
When I equipped my MS, I no longer got the bonus to DX from my EC and EBs
I should be getting +20 from those and -6 or -7 from the shield.

were you perhaps using a two handed weapon and a ranged weapon?

updated the wiki pages to reflect all recent changes.
and TMDoc, you get a penalty for using a 2 handed weapon also.

I could run around in circles, screaming "DOOM" and frothing like a lunatic at the changes if you think it would help, Mattrim. :P

Plus the four in December that I did because I knew I wouldn't have much time in January...
Some people always need something to complain about. They can go play in the back of a Pinto.

Oh well we will get over it I think. /Me prepares his stat for next change month.

We've had less changes before. It's just that few people disagreed with any of the changes this month.

I can sense that not soon after this change the infamous 'Shield Throw' skill will be introduced. I can't wait!

I get that joke. And because I get it I'm sure I'm dating myself. The shame of growing older.
Oh, well. There is still so much more to look forward to I suppose. Like an awesome new shield throwing skill!
