Are shields now classified as weapons in KMS?
Basically, can you enhance a shield with W. ATK on it to gain W. ATK as happens with weapons? I would guess not, but just to make sure...

Dragon Khanjar 44, 45, 46 weapon attack exist
as well as "ImWar's" 27w.att VIP Shield
Is that what you were referring to? @MrTouchnGo

What he means is, If you apply an Enhancement Scroll to a shield, will it increase weapon attack?

Ah...Now THAT is an interesting question. Is this because of the secondary equipments in KMS?

More or less because shields have weapon potential now instead of armor potential in KMS

So is having a Dual Blade/Magical Arrow/Force Shield/Shield of Light/Card/Whatever AB has, Its more to balance out the playing field. You can't wear a shield and one of the new emblems though, so it evens out.

Sorry to hijack, but the answerer to your question might also know this as well:
Can you fuse the new secondary items like Magical Arrows or is everything now Card-style?

Difference being though that only kataras can be enhanced. No other off-hand equip can have enhance scrolls used on them. (Not sure about burster, assuming her off-hand is like mercedes.)

Hence why the OP asked, if enhancing shields would increase wep att

I think they added in entirely new off hands for every class, so shields weren't modified at all. Meaning no, they won't add attack.

I have no idea for Magic Arrows, but you can't fuse Cards.
I learned that the hard way by leveling alchemy on my Phantom and mass buying Cards only to find it doesn't let you at all. :f7:

It's the same with Magic Arrows, I did the same thing you did. :f7:

I was aware of those two instances, I was merely using those items as references.

Oh. I had no idea that Magic Arrows were no longer fusable, I guess that answers my question.
Re: Are shields now classified as weapons in KMS?
Magic arrows were never fuseable to begin with, to my knowledge. :f6:

That has been my experience too. As for the topic on hand you'd probably have to get a shield with WA and as little of other stats as possible to test since the AEES could enhance other stats, but I would have to say that I think the answer is a 'yes'.

Shields are now classified as Weapons, in addition to the new "2ndary" equips.

A/EE can also add stats to items. There's duped Gold Emerald Earrings that have STR/DEX/INT/LUK on them due to being A/EE'd.

Well, darn it. :f7: I completely forgot about that...so that basically means it'd be better if someone actually posts proof that it can be done.
Re: Are shields now classified as weapons in KMS?
Doesn't really matter if shields are classified as weapons or not.
The most attack an AEE will add to a weapon with under 50 attack is 1, I believe.
On the other hand, there's a good chance it will add main-stat. Depending on your stats, 2-4 main stat is equivalent to 1 attack.
Up to you how many Shielding Wards you're willing to buy for such marginal increase in damage.

I don't believe A/EEs add ATK at all to any equips besides weapons and gloves. They always add ATK to weapons, and sometimes to gloves, but never to anything else (as far as I know, anyways, I've never really tried to enhance shields). I'm just wondering if shields have gained the same ability to gain ATK upon enhance as weapons.
