Shares of secondary equipment

[Marko]

Hi all,
With the recent release of secondary eqs, I wonder:

1. KMS doesn't have those lvl 130 VIP shields, so does it now work like those new secondary eqs too?
2. Can Hero/Pala/DK hold VIP warrior shield while using 2 handed weapon?
3. Can Aran/DS/Mikhail hold VIP warrior shield now?
4. How about Night Lord/DB + VIP Thief shield/Dragon Khanjar?
5. Are those new secondary eqs tradeable and can't be fused like Mercedes arrow and Phantom card?


Thank you in advance!

1. I assume so.
2, 3 and 4. I highly doubt it, but if anyone can confirm, that'd be great.
5. Yup.

2, 3, and 4 - shields are still shields, and can't be equipped with a 2h weapon.

Also, VIP warrior shields are no different, in behavior, than the Blue Dragon Shields (level 110) that KMS does have. Just different stats.

him asking makes sense, since usually GMS-only items don't get changed (like arcglaives requiring dex still and such, although i think that was changed later)

however, this affects not the actual item, but the tag "shield", so i'd assume that their potential is changed, like when we lost 12% mainstat VIP items long ago.

Disclaimer: I do not have a VIP shield. I tested by attempting to equip a 2h sword with my Kalkan (which is anviled to look like a 2nd UG Warrior Shield). So if VIP shields were changed in a way KMS shields weren't, my answer doesn't apply.

A more logical question would be whether UG shields in general can now get weapon potential, or were somehow forgotten. But, as you said, the change applies to the category "shield" and those items can't, technically, be left behind when something like that is done.

I thought those new secondary eqs are in 'Shield' category.

This hero can hold 2 handed sword with it, but I guess not with shield as you tested.

[SaptaZapta]

No, it is equipped in the Shield slot, but its CATEGORY (as written on the item, right above the STR line) is "Medals" (rather confusing, I must say... Medals is not Medal)

Shields have weapon potential and can be equipped with weapon nebs.
Secondary weapons go in the shield slot.

My VIP shield has a 12% mag att line but I can't swap out the neb because it's locked for a year.
